The most worrying thing for me is if Lerner is in a right old mess financially and is struggling to sustain bankrolling the club anymore. I'd much rather he'd just decided enough was enough for the time being but the cost cutting has been so quick and severe it certainly doesn't look good does it? and we all know what happened to the last club that fell apart at the seams this quick, they still haven't come back now.

I still can't lay the blame at the managers feet for the state we're in. No one would have sorted this shit out with the money and wages available.

I feel physically sick..we really are done for! Total piss take from all concerned, tonight we ceased being a premiership club! Pathetic!!!!
Get a grip mate a transfer ducking window doesn't finish off the great Aston Villa.
I didnt say we wasn't great, i said we ceased being a premiership club.

I'm certain Lambert's true home is League One, that's why he's trying to get us there as fast as he can.

Sack Faulkner, sack Lambert, sack the players, refund the season ticket money, padlock the gates, call it a day.

There is no more point.

Ive suggested this before but nobody showed any interest. Why dont we play Benteke at centre half . Big, physical, wins most of the headers
and his passing is good. Leaving Bent and Weimann up front and Agbonlahor under orders to stay out on the wings and provide the crosses.

If he doesnt buy a centre half I suppose he will stick with Vlaar and Clark...which shows how stubborn and stupid he is.

Truly gobsmacking.

Honestly, it is just beyond a joke that that is all our business.

Desperate for a bit of experience, we opt for two more kids who have never kicked a ball at the top level.

They're not kids, ones 25. They're just shit. 25 and only played 11 games in England, for Leyton Orient. Say's it all.

Can the last person leaving the building please turn off the lights.

I presume you are joking about Benteke!
