I have been down Villa Park today. I was expecting to see a few people in the car park anxiously discussing this awful situation we find ourselves in, perhaps even a small TV crew hoping for an exclusive. This is what I saw. Nothing. Not a single person in the club shop. Nobody in the ticket office and apart from a couple of Asian ladies who had been to Tesco's nobody around the surrounds of the ground.

I know its freezing cold but,I don't know, perhaps people are not that interested any more.

There never is anyone around, unless there's a conference or a property auction.

Villa Park is a place you go to not a place you pass through (unless you are David Unsworth). It ain't city centre like St James Park

As one contributor pithily remarked to an SSN news reporter outside WestHam once who was wondering why no one was at the doors of the club demanding answers " we're all at work mate"

I write about the situation to Tom after every match - I am polite but sometimes ironic, never sarcastic or rude - it makes me strangely calm and takes away the dark thoughts.

Unfortunately I am on holiday for the AVST AGM otherwise would be there - I did comment to my wife that I could get back to the cottage by about 11:30 but she just looked at me - in "that" way...

Is it safe to say this worked then?

I sent one, but mine was fucking shit. Nowhere near as well written as some of the ones posted in the thread. Just basically said it's not good enough, Lambert is dragging our name and reputation through the gutter.

You are welcome. Not sure how me sending him offers for discount Viagra really helped but I am happy to take some credit. He never responded btw and I really need to shift this gear to some punters. Bastard.

Yes because the growing pile of unread e-mails in his junk folder will definitely be what swung it, not the abysmal league form and total lack of goals and creativity.

Ha! You may well be right, Joe but right now I'm just delighted we're free of the Clueless One. We'll soon find out if Fox hasn't been reading his emails as he's been too busy doing his homework on potential new managers. Everything crossed.
