Aston Villa v Wolverhampton Wanderers Post-Match Thread

[Dave]

Three points off bottom with eight games to play.

Ouch.

[NeilH]

He's taken them for team building and this was the result. No-one wants to play play for him. We stink of relegation right now. RAL has to deal with this tonight.

[midnite]

We have won, lost and drawn the same amount of games as west brom.... But they've actually scored more than us. Ouch!! Doesnt make good reading the table

[Percy McCarthy]

14th now, point clear of relegation. Hate the twat, but Allardyce please. We need someone who can get disgraces like Dunne, Warnock and Collins trying again.

[johncvilla88]

Sam Allardyce in Houllier out!

[usav]

I still think we will be OK, but this was a really bad result, even taking into account the injuries.   We got lucky with the other matches that it wasn't even worse.

As I said earlier if the guy has any honour whatsoever his resignation will be arriving on Lerners desk in the next 30 minutes. If not then the very least I expect is for the chairman to terminate his employment. Normally I wouldn't suggest sacking a manager so late in the season but I truly believe this is the only chance we have of avoiding relegation.

[Reuben]

There were no positives.  Can't blame the makeshift defence.  There was nothing offered in front of them.
For the first time, I am genuinely concerned.

[nadz3488]

Words just simply cannot describe how I'm feeling right now. Gutless performance.

[Jimsta]

If GH is still at Villa park next season then i'm removing my Villa Tattoo, Please Lerner sort that  twat out.

[villa for life]

As I said when MON went, Allardyce please.

[Monty]

As I said when MON went, Allardyce please.

You said that when MON went, oh sensei? Dear Lord.

[pauliewalnuts]

I've said for a while that getting rid of him, with the uncertainty it would create, would just make matters worse and see us down.

However, having watched that gutless, pathetic, directionless, insipid performance, I think we are actually getting worse. That is bad enough, but what makes it even worse is the fact that we are starting to look like a runaway train totally out of control, heading for relegation.

It is really hard to see where we are going to pick any points up for the rest of the season. One of the things many of us have said all season is that we'll be ok, if only because there are three teams worse than us in the division.

Are there, though? Who are they? There might be teams with, on paper, a weaker first XI, and a weaker bench than us, but I don't think there is a side there more utterly devoid of fight and of spirit as we are.

I reckon Randy has got a very difficult decision, and it is one that he needs to make quickly. As in 'tonight' quickly.

[TheSandman]

We are well in it. I don't see where the points are coming from. Lots of clubs around us are picking up points and we seem to be completely hapless and hopeless.

That was utterly dispiriting and soul destroying. We are a rudderless ship that has just hit an ice berg. The question is whether we are going to sink. The hapless management team and the players who with a few exceptions seem to be either gutless wankers or total arseholes are to blame for this shambles and it is the second group that makes this so soul destroying.

steve mcclaren in tomorrow.

houllier hopefully will just resign. Would have a lot more respect for him if he did.

There comes a point when players stop playing for a manager. For any Villa supporter watching our current crop effectively back Collins and Dunne today with a non effort today was disgusting. Wolves were so crap they could only beat us 1-0. A decent side would have hammered us.
