People Lining Up To Take Pot Shots.

[kippaxvilla2]

McLeish - asked to cut the wage bill but didn't stop you buying Nzogbia did it?  Or your 4-6 formation at Spuds? 

Lambert - delighted to be sacked?  Offered to resign?  Still didn't stop you breaking the clubs worst records collection over and over again did it?  Still didn't stop you being forced to sign that four year deal whilst you were being held down.

Tiny Penis.  Talking about us again today I see.  What it's like to be in the shadow of a great club.  And we need to be envious because you've made progress with that oh so free flowing football style.  Twat.

Karen Brady.  I'll let you off because you fantastically sold SHA down the river.

Seems we are a big deal to some when we are crap.

[German James]

Rise above it, mate!

[Richard E]

A plague on all their houses.

Funny how McLeish and Lambert have been very quiet about how much they were paid when they were at Aston Villa.  I remember reading something at the time saying McLeish was in the top 20 best paid managers in world football when he was at Villa and I can only assume Lambert was on similar money.

Good post mate.

I prefer the anger to the restraint being called for as regards walk-outs, boycotts etc.

Villa fans have more than enough reason to be angry, extremely angry.

Good point. They were paid top dollar to do a difficult job. It was beyond both of them.

It was clear before McLeish came here that he was not the right man based on what he had done before. Lambert, less so.

Yes, Lerner had to cut the expenditure but neither manager showed any sustainable plan on how to achieve it.

What's Brady had to say for herself?

What's Brady had to say for herself?

I'm a media whore. Although perhaps she didn't mention the media bit.

It just goes to show, despite so many people belittleing Aston Villa, that we are and will always be one of the biggest clubs in the country, not the biggest, just one of the biggest. Of course, this is always denied by our closest rivals with purple faced jealousy but our size and stature makes us a target. This is just the start, it will get worse but one thing is worth remembering that those referenced above lack the one quality that would make their criticisim valid.

Credibility.

In a funny way, I take it as a compliment.

I don't like her either, but to make that slur is really poor form imo. I thought Villa supporters were better than that, but clearly I'm out of touch these days.

[amfy]

The ones that are getting me are people I have barely heard of, and people who have never had anything to do with us, suddenly popping up to give their expert opinion on how crap we are!

Absolutely, but sadly from the day she joined the circus the slag/whore/ugly comments were in vogue and detracting from the fact that regardless of gender she is a truly horrible person.

We're English football's 'Aunt Sally' at present, but the media will soon find a replacement once we've gone down. But that's the joy of wall-to-wall coverage & social media for ya. Seemingly everybody has an opinion on everything & think it vital that they should give it at every opportunity.

I see McLeish is on about how we will struggle in the Championship. This is the same utter failure McLeish who was able to get a team promoted from it. How fucking hard can it really be if he managed it? Also his comments that we'll struggle because be don't win many games. Yet Burnely and Hull won 7 or 8 games in the PL last season are finding winning games significantly easier this season. I'm not saying we don't have work to do, but it makes me laugh when the Championship is made out to be more than it is.

I think we have aggravated quite a few neutrals with our old style Southampton or Coventry-esque approach of being happy to do just enough to stay up over the past few years, so it is open season. I was delighted to see that pair go down, so I can't blame anyone else for feeling the same way about us.

For the local tramps who somehow see themselves as rivals, it distracts them from the grim reality of a completely pointless  existence.

Lambert really needs to shut his cakehole, mind.

In his final year with us, he looked like a cornish pasty in a tracksuit. Even if he'd got the players he wanted during that period, he wouldn't have known what to do with them.
