Randy knows he's dropped a huge Ginger bollock but simply won't admit it and take action.  The end result could well be relegation this season, and all because our top man isn't man enough to hold his hands up.  Shame.

Does he? Where is our clueless chairman anyway?

As has just been mentioned on the post match thread, Doug's at practically every game.  Shame Randy can't show the same passion.

I think it representative of the whole atmosphere of the club, nobody gives a crap, certainly Randy doesn't, its feeding through the players and probably everybody, its like a very contagious virus.

White hanky's at the games?  Othe than that, non-stop chanting.  Some of the players deserve the stick too.  The fans have eased up on McLeish because he's playing kids, it's not their fault but, unless we get McLeish out, he'll ruin the kids too.

I think there would be an excellent way of protesting, its subtle but its clear, rather than banners and anthems and protest displays outside the ground somebody somewhere organizes a complete blanket covering "Stay Away" protest.

To make it work it would have to be resolute and thorough, it would have to be at an Home game obviously, I would suggest the Sunderland game with the significance of MON being there, it makes for a very clear message to the present manager whilst he sits in front of the previous manager, it gives a very clear message to the board both physically and financially.

Its none violent or aggressive and yet its been proven that total silent protests in whatever form work.

I know people will say back the team but we have come to the point where something needs to be done and this is a very intelligent way of doing it, the problem is it would have to to be total and complete and that would take some organizing.

Whenever i'm able to muster a bit of optimism, usually from the teams below us losing, it all comes crashing down when we play a football match.

I'd rather we waited until we had the 3 points we need before doing anything protest wise.  Until then, we need to get behind the team (if not the manager).

I haven't been down villa park since the first half dozen games this season. I get the impression that there's a lot of apathy amongst the fans.

Isn't it time to turn up the vitriol, give it to him big time. I know he seems like a nice bloke, but enoughs enough surely. A sound beating by Sunderland should be the straw
to break the camels back.
Turn up the vitriol if you wish but you will have to go to the game for anyone to take any notice.

The fans need to chant, from minute 1 to minute 90 against him. It has gone too far, and the club are in a mess due to the worst managerial appointment in history. Other clubs have sacked people inside 4 months if not doing the job well. This guy had a full pre season FFS, and made a few signings etc. Our weakness is born from no central midfield, but Eck did nothing to solve that, and we are in free fall now. When did we last win a game?!

Yes he did he actively ruined it by loaning out Makoun.

Any creativity or skill Makoun had, would have been wrung out of him by Mcpieceofshit.

I think Makoun has had a lucky escape.

I know what your saying and I mentioned that in my post, for me 3 points from the Bolton game will seal there fate will securing ours.

The point is we have a chairman that is happy to sit across the ocean and pretend we don't exist, if we go into the summer as we are you can bet we will carry on like this at the start of next season, in spite of rumour to the contrary, if that's the case we will get relegated next time, so for me pick on game but make it work, complete stay away, a unified show of complete and utter disgust by the entire fan base of the club. its not demonstrative its not emotional its calm and considered and Randy Lerner will soon get the hint when he realises this is going to hit him in the pocket big time.

I never understood why it was supposed to a good move to replace Makoun with a Spurs reserve who is available to play every thirtieth match or so.
