It's 2 bad seasons and appointing a terrible terrible manager that we all knew would be terrible, well everyone except Randy

I wouldn't call ninth last season after everything that happened particularly bad.

He's made mistakes but who doesn't, he's surrounded himself with people who don't look up to the job, it will take him realising that before we can move forward.

I'm sure Randy is oblivious to the "abuse." I'm sure he hardly sits around looking at HandV every night, worrying that someone has called him an idiot. And he doesn't go to games any more, so he won't hear anything there.

When we need leadership he's not there. There's a whole malaise about the place and he made a truly atrocious managerial appointment. I'm not saying he should go (if you read my post), but to say people are questioning him only because we've had a bad season is simplistic.  There's a whole variety of reasons why supporters are annoyed. There's absolutely no indicator that we're even trying to compete or have a vision any more.

I believe if we hadn't brought Bent we'd have been relegated, watch the season review, up until Jan it was appalling

  Lerner is not fit to own Aston Villa.

His people placed a banner on the Holte End stating rather patronisingly "Aston Villa the Obsession".

Yet he seems to think he can hide away in the States not explaining or communicating anything while we watch our "obsession" go down the tubes.

I was reading an article yesterday about the Liverpool owners not attending their semi final at Wembley and I thought to myself....what a disgrace it was.

Then it suddenly dawned on me that that's exactly what our owner has been doing all season with the exception of a couple of cameo appearences.

We are a rudderless ship...lacking direction, purpose and any sense of togetherness.

Compare the frustration and anger at VP currently with the sense of belonging and almost family values that Kenwright has established at Everton by always being there, visible, approachable and taking a leadership role.......even though they are skint and their house is falling down......I know which situation I would prefer

Let's all be in it together Randy....... as together we are stronger....divided we fall

The banners on the Holte and North Stand have all been made and paid for by fans.

And if he's not, we can all carry on with the hilarious McInsult motif.

I'm surprised at that. The "1874 a good year for football"  banner  doesn't even make sense.
