Awesome, i'd love to, can you point me in the right direction

There's the Supporters Trust, the Supporter Consultation Groups and the assorted Lions Clubs for a start. And also, have you ever tried talking to them yourself? 

What do you want me to do Dave? Oh hello nicola this is Phil can I book an appointment to speak to Alex and Paul? I might actually see if I can join a group.

I went to the game on Saturday (a round trip of over 550 miles) and witnessed one of the worst and most shambolic all round displays I have ever seen. AM was the wrong choice and it was never going to work in either the short or long term. The Villa fans turned on AM like I have never witnessed before to any manager, no matter how bad they were (Turner, McNneil etc)  The split is so big now between fans and manager that there is no going back. Surely to make sure we avoid relegation the club needs uniting and this simply can't happen under AM. Sack him and let KM and GC take us through to the end of the season. Results may not be better, but I can almost guarantee that the football will be and the for sure the club will be united at this crucial time.

yes Dorsetvilla . I just think AMC has shot himself in the foot.  He talked a good game for a while , asked the fans to give him a chance and most of them backed him . We saw slight hope against Arsenal at home with fans thinking he might be alright but the last couple of games , he has bought all this on himself . Not just the dire negative football but the bollocks he keeps talking after the matches .  I went right off him after the SŁŁtty game.

So Marc can score sometimes then. A dribble followed by a blast at the target.

There is a group on Twitter @VillaFansUnited who want Mcleish out, they are apparently going on Talksport tomorrow on drive time.

I've asked them to not embarrass us.

As long as the line "this has nothing to do with Blues" is genuinely stuck to, they shouldn't do.

I've not seen a Villa support turn on a manager like that since the last one.

I'd like to see someone like lambert get villa job, young and ambitious and wants to play football.

The only thing is I can't see are board going for someone like that if we did sack AM.

It's hard to ignore the impact Lambert has had at Norwich, but their success seems to be built on hard work, graft over style and utilising the big man up top (Holt).   

Not terrible qualities by any means. But a bit too close to the principles of a certain pube headed Ulsterman for my liking.  I'd be positively delighted with either Lambert or Rodgers if it meant cheery bye bye to Big Eck though, can't pretend otherwise.
