MacDonald ponders Villa future

29 August 2010 20:00
Aston Villa caretaker boss Kevin MacDonald will inform club owner Randy Lerner by Tuesday whether he wishes to be considered for the job on a permanent basis. MacDonald saw Villa gain their second League win since he temporarily replaced Martin O'Neill against Everton thanks to a goal from Luke Young. Lerner came into the Villa dressing room after the match to pass on his congratulations to MacDonald who has filled the breach since O'Neill quit three weeks ago. MacDonald said: "Mr Lerner came in the dressing room and said well done. He said to me `take your time, enjoy the evening'. "He put no pressure on me but I will probably speak to him on Monday or Tuesday at the latest about whether I wish to be considered for the job. "I've enjoyed being able to organise things but I still don't know if it is for me or not. I will now have the chance to collate everything that has happened in the past two weeks and I've got to believe I'm good enough myself. That is what I will think about."
