Dwight Yorke has applied for the Aston Villa managerial role.
Aston Villa fans have taken to social networking site Twitter to give their reaction to recent comments made by Dwight Yorke.
Yorke has told Sky Sports that he has applied for the vacant managerial role at Villa.
“It’s a job I’m 100% interested in, I’ve made it very clear I’d like to speak to the football club,” Yorke told Sky Sports. “Whether that happens or not I’m still waiting on a telephone call.”
