"Did a great job at Villa".Some bozo on 5Live.
The fact we didn't get relegated under him (I specifically use that phrase as opposed to saying he kept us up) but finished rock bottom not long after he left portrays him in a better light than he deserves. To most casual football fans he is the bloke that kept us up in a heroic Big Sam style.
Anybody who went to Hull would have known, without a shadow of a doubt that we were cooked and done that season.
You realize how barmy football is when Lambert gets offered a gig as a PL manager .
Rab C Mumble to Stoke? Staggering, simply staggering. What on earth are they thinking? All that talk about doing a good job at Villa, keeping us up etc etc is re-writing history. Remember Christmas 2012? We lost 15-0. Remember Bradford, Millwall, Orient, Blades? Cup humiliations one and all. Remember getting to January having scored 12 goals all season? Remember Tonev, Kozak, Senderos, Sylla etc etc? Remember giving Gabby a 4 yr contract in 2014?? I'll give him Benteke, but that's it. Lerner notwithstanding, Lambert was a dreadful manager for Aston Villa.
"Never in a million years" did Lambert expect Stoke job http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/42753342
Someone else's problem now. Limited sympathy for Stokies
