Didn't take long to find this off a Villa forum -
I said at the time, I cannot understand the hatred towards this bloke from Villa fans. He was a coach, that was thrust into a managers job for 3 months and people expected him to turn round the biggest cock up this club had ever produced. It wasnt gonna happen !
In my eyes, he started the recovery.
We now know Gabby is a lazy arsed overwight idiot - why ? - coz Eric Black told us he was
and the same about the other players.
Southampton are no mugs, and this appointment goes to show how well respected he was and is in the game.
From me at least Eric, good luck, hope it goes well, and thanks for at least trying to get these overpaid tosspots to do some work !
