What a horrible topic. It's the Premier League all the way. Even the slightest suggestion that some fans would welcome the Championship just because we maybe be more competitive in it suggests Lerner and co have sucked every last bit of ambition out of the club. We're Aston Villa FC, a club that's spent just 12 season out of the top flight in its entire history. Not some small time outfit who are just happy to plod along in the lower leagues. Have some pride in the club for crying out loud!
Was the question posed by a follower of one of our other local sides? Sounds like the sort of thing they come out with to justify their team's yoyoing. Whilst exciting, swaggering, cavalier football is something we'd all love to see, dropping down a division is no guarantee of its arrival.We belong in the top division.Eventually things will get better. They always have.These may be dark days, but they are very, very far from our grand old club's darkest. We'll be back, maybe not to the pinnacle of our finest hour, but we will, and we shall hold our heads high, and it will be in the premier.
Relegation so we can beat Doncaster and Burnley?How about we just sort ourselves fucking out. Get a proper manager in, sign some real players and be competitive with Southampton, Swansea, Everton, clubs with smaller crowds and smaller incomes. We need to stop pissing about now, we are the only club in the Premier league buying players from fucking Crewe and Chesterfield. Piss take.

Piss take.You really are Mr Sunshine aren't you?!You've criticised Lambert on pretty much every thread you can find but I'm yet to see you actually offer an alternative. So care to share with us who this 'proper manager' is we should be getting in?
