irrespective of what anyone thinks of the manager, we still all need the club to do well. If we, as fans, only add to the obvious levels of pressure, then we may as well just pack up now. There has been so much vitriol and bad feeling over the past two weeks. We need to draw a line under all of it now and come together. No more banners. No more calls for dismissals, and protests. Let's get behind the club so that it gets to the summer in one piece and start the rebuilding work then. Relegation would be a calamity. I've felt that pain once, and I never want us to go through it again.

Benghazi airport. See you there. Take your own transport. Bring a bottle.

Would it really accomplish anything?

If you want to express your disatisfaction write to the General and he'll pass it on to Randy.

Is the Generals thread still open ?

Do you think that is seriously going to help the team?

Haha I like it.

Hope he has a nice time.

Don't forget to not come back.

Agreed. We've got to get 100% behind the team now and focus completely on staying up. We're deep in a relegation fight, our form is poor, and our confidence is fragile. The General and (presumably) Randy are fully aware of our feelings. The time for protests is not now - the media would have a feeding frenzy which will only do us more harm.

Regardless of your opinion of GH the club have clearly stated that he's here until the end of the season.  I take this as fact, Randy has a good record of doing what he says in these matters.  In my opinion that leaves us with 2 options, neither of which will oust GH:

1. Voice dissent and have crowds like we had at the Wolves game.
2. Get behind the team.

If we go route 1 then I can see performances degrading further as confidence takes a hit and the players start to become scared of making mistakes (particularly at home).  I seem to remember the England team had this issue at Wembley a while back.  It will also strengthen the hands of any dissenters within the squad who may well like nothing better than to see us fail.  It will not oust GH before the end of the season and it will not help us to stay up.

If we go route 2 then we can have an affect on the team, I will even go so far as to say it could make the difference between staying up or going down.  When we're at our best Villa Park can deliver a very impressive atmosphere.

As you can probably tell I prefer route 2, I've put my thoughts on GH on hold, at least until we're safe or the season's over.

My viewpoint has always been that if you pay your money to watch your football team you are entitled to your opinion, and are entitled to voice your dissent if you so wish.

If people want to protest, good luck to them. I wont be joining, but I wont be having a go at them for doing something they have a right to do.

Protest?   Twats .  What about just getting behind the team with lots of noise .

Haven't we done that all season ? And it hasn't had an effect on performances yet!
