No way was Turner as bad as him.  At least Turner tried to play football.  Job was just too big for him.

No way does Bingo get a pass, he was shit and worst of all didn't give a toss about us as fans or the Villa as knew he was off to Celtic.

His success at Norwich is now looking like the exception in his managerial career.  Doesn’t come across as a bad bloke, but his post match comments (“I thought we were excellent” etc.) really grate and are borderline delusional which doesn’t really inspire any confidence in him.

The thing that annoyed me most about Lambert was his tendency to say things which were patently not true, regarding events that we had all just witnessed.

It's pretty hard to make a case for the "lads" having "given everything" and the manager "having no complaints" because he thought we "were excellent, really excellent" after we've just been utterly humiliated by Southampton or some other meh who-gives-a-shit club, who haven't had to get out of first gear.

He seems a nice enough guy, but so did McLeish, and he was fucking awful, too.

The one that sticks in my mind was a God awful defeat away at Swansea the typical sort of game where we regularly didn’t turn up.  Afterwards he was babbling on about how he couldn’t believe we’d lost it like we had fifty attempts on target and three missed penalties.

Along with Graham Turner the worst Villa manager I have known. You could add McNeill and Garde but they both took on a poisoned chalice.
McNeill, TSM and Lambert - all utterly shite.

In his defence we did play some good keep ball at times. It's just a pity we were losing at the time.

A face you want to smash after the 1000th straight time of providing us with the same bollocks. We go again indeed. Cock.

We had 3 shots on target, by Lambert standards that was a fantastic performance.

I don't actively dislike many people. but Lambert's one of them. How can anyone be so utterly useless and  become a multi millionaire?

He's doing it again now. Jack Butland is in the press defending him, saying the squad was crap and he should be given the chance to manage them next year.

1 win in 14 matches!!!

He must be a better hypnotist than Derren Brown to convince this many people he's not utterly useless!

I remember his first game away at West Ham and fans singing “We’re Aston Villa we’re passing the ball” and I was thinking, yup but it’s all sideways with no end product. I was miffed after that defeat but didn’t realise what a harbinger it was.
