Gerard Houllier

[hulkamania]

I'm going to watch England win the ashes and then I want to come back on here and find that Houllier has been given the chop. Then I can sleep easy tonight

[Richard C]

We've also got the worst defensive record in the league.  Deary me, what an absolute shambles.

And once we go behind, nil poi.

If theres any chance of Steve Mcclaren, I might open an umbrella shop down Witton Road. Might make a fortune  ;-)

Would not be surprised if ash indicates he wants to leave and the board lay that as the reason for selling him- in all honesty after seeing today's shambles he is not going to stay here if he gets a chance of a top 5 club!

The vultures will definitely be out for Ashley Young as soon as the window opens....rest assured.

I'm going to sign off now as the 'Back GH' poll is nearing 30%.......I can't take anymore.....it'll probably be at 99% by tomorrow morning.....

[eastie]

Time to watch the ashes and see the Aussies crumble- tomorrow. I may feel better after some sleep but these are very worrying times at villa park and I fear for our future- we have lost deadly doug but have we got ruthless randy? I hope so!

Yep, the list of dismal statistics is never ending.  Most goals conceded, worst goal difference, least points after going behind.  We're going down.

There is absolutely no point in sacking GH. We will not be relgated we are more than good enough to stay up. Getting a new Manager in now will serve no purpose.
I suggest we keep him for now but Randy and Co should sound out Martin Jol   with a view to an appoinment in the Summer if our results do not improve  dramatically.

[Shrek]

I've so far been positive about Houllier, but if he cannot motivate the players then he must go, but wether he goes or not we still need a massive overhaul of our playing staff, so worrying times either way!

What makes today worse is Blues scored a 90th minute equaliser against Manure!

[eastie]

The table doesn't lie- our points per game ratio under houllier would see us relagated - unless he is planning huge changes in January then we are in dire straits!

That makes no sense, if we wait till the summer and results haven't improved we will be in the championship.

[Clampy]

Nottingham Forest and Newcastle thought the same thing.

[Risso]

The scary thing is we are definitely NOT good enough go stay up, as it stands anyway.  No other team I've  seen this year have as little team spirit and desire as us.

I reckon he's got a contract from another club in front of him as I type - he's away and I am embarrassed that Villa has now become a selling club, something Faulkner denied, but frankly, it'll soon be undeniable.

What to do ?

Make some hard decisions Randy and sort the club out ffs

[Des Little]

Please, please do not think we're good enough to stay up...we simply aren't.  We are a total and utter shambles at present and relegation is extremely likely and urgent action is required.  Quite what that is I'm not sure but that's what Randy and his pal have to sort it out and quick.

[TimTheVillain]

Absolutely, little old Blackpool has more desire running through its veins than the shower we employ......hence, they're looking like a better bet to stay up than second city masters Aston Villa.
