If watching us and stating the obvious makes for a good article then there's 30,000 waiting to be written.
The only part I'd disagree with is the insinuation we should have kept Ireland, we all know he's worth less on the pitch than off it.

And the line ' “You've got to play without the ball a lot of the time,” said Lambert. Villa do that anyway. ' is a peach.It's odd that you don't seem to mind so much about all the "great article, Dave" comments referring to the toss you write on thebirminghampress.com.

I know more than him. Firstly the match is MNF !! he should know his facts! so doesnt even knnow when the villa are playing!we already all know this some people are easily impressed . i m an individual and no upstart i can state with confidence the tactics need to be addressed !!Quote from: kippaxvilla2 on January 12, 2014, 03:31:45 PMRichard JollyEnglish football correspondentMaybe the mutiny in the Midlands was a one-off event. Perhaps it is the start of a full-scale revolt. Tonight may tell whether Paul Lambert has lost the loyalty of Aston Villas long-suffering supporters......The high point of the campaign occurred against todays visitors, Arsenal, a 3-1 opening-day demolition that brought a display of dissent towards Arsene Wenger.

I think this article works for a non-partisan audience. Yes, it seems bleedin' obvious as a Villa fan - we've had to put up with our home form. But for the casual football watcher, this article articulates our feelings in a powerful and heart-felt way.Consequently, it does a good job of promoting our club and the fans' feelings to a wider audience.

There was nothing overly insightful for us in what he wrote, but it was refreshing to see the wider media actually notice these things for a change rather than just write the usual stuff.
