Paul Lambert (R)

He was the fountainhead of reduced fan expectations and we must never forget it.

[mr underhill]

the skid marks on his managerial career run really deep.

In honor of Paul Lambert and his never ending ironic post match interviews I'm going to reply in the style of Paul Lambert.

I thought he was excellent, I couldn'ae fault him.

The guy is an absolute bag of milk.

[Clampy]

I don't think he's said a great deal wrong there to be honest. It's not as bad as the crap he normally comes out with.

I will say one thing for him. My son and I got to see loads of goals for the price of our season tickets in the Lambert years. Mostly in the Villa net but plenty of goals nonetheless.

I'm in Cyprus and watched him on Bein sports with Keys and Gray doing the Newcastle v Chelsea game. Richard Keys  cushion face is coming along nicely, the fat faced Coventry prick! As for Lambert I can't believe he still gets paid to mumble the drivel he comes out with.

Blame Guzan for being a useless tard

I can’t stop laughing at this description, great work Nodge!

Genuine laugh out loud at that, beats salad and melt hands down. 

[CT Villan]

I never tire of watching this...

I’m surprised it’s taken him so long.

Lambert made the point about the difficulties of the post in a round-table discussion alongside Stuart Pearce and Steve Sidwell about the Villa manager situation after host Geoff Shreeves reported Terry is now the favourite following Thierry Henry’s decision to think about his options.

“No matter how many caps you’ve got or what you’ve won nothing prepares you to go into that hot seat,” Lambert told Sky Sports. “Confrontation finds you as a manager, you don’t go out looking for it every morning. It comes to your door. You get sick of the sight of some players.

“It will start off fresh, then things happen, then the next day, then the next day. You think, ‘this isn’t quite as easy as everyone thinks it is’.

“No matter what you’ve done in your playing career, you have to get results. Villa is a big club with a big expectancy level.”

Nothing much to argue with, there.

He obviously thinks managing Villa is a tough gig. Coincidentally he also appeared to find Livingston, Wycombe, Blackburn, Wolves and Stoke tough to manage. F***ing twat.

What was he expecting when he became a manager? Managing players? Who'd have thunk it. Managing people is the hardest part of any managers job, not just in football. It helps if you're good at it Paul and you clearly aren't.
