Villa fans want Ellis to follow O'Leary

Aston Villa supporters are calling on chairman Doug Ellis to follow David O’Leary out of the Villa Park door.

Ellis has seen 13 managers come and go in his two spells in charge – he also held the reins from 1968-75 – and clearly some Villa fans feel the time is now right for the 82-year-old to relinquish control at Villa Park after 24 years at the helm.
