If we had any ambition at all we'd get Fat Sam with Pulis as his assistant. Money no object to get the dream team in.

Read the title and was coming on here to vent my spleen at the idiots suggesting it

The noise for Lambert from the away end yesterday spoke volumes for the support for his Claret and Blue army. Villa fans are in unison together and were a lot more exciting, we will click together, sooner or later

Just make sure we alter our settings in profile.

Of course lambert has to be given both time and money to turn things around- it is a huge job on his hands to rebuild the squad and halt the decline at he club and I'm sure we all hope it works out well for him.

So it's gone from an 'utter mess' to a decline. Glad you cleared that up.

The club is in decline and Lerner had made an utter mess of the last 3 years of his ownership with mistake after mistake- that clear enough clampy ?

I know how much you think randy is the bees knees but wake up and smell the roses - he's not!
Then again you still harp on about how great the mon era was , its taken you years to see that mon wasn't the bees knees either.

Sorry if you are upset about me criticising the great mr Lerner but I call it as I see it mate.

Sorry but "the emperor has no clothes " clamps!

I think you'll find i have'nt mentioned MON for a very long time, unlike youself on the 'Depressing' thread not only a few hours ago where funnily enough you are saying how things were not that bad under him and 'careful what you wish for' was the phrase i believe you used.

The big mistake Lerner made was appointing houllier when mon left
O Neill had run his course and it was time he left , he under achieved with the cash at his disposal but in comparison to the current team of course things were much better with the likes of Barry, Milner Laursen,young ,downing , etc all firing.

None of us is happy with things at the moment and lambert needs time and support to change things- I still firmly blame mr Lerner for the mess over the last 3 years and I guess I will not convince you he is not the bees knees.

Enjoy your evening clampy and let's hope next weekend we are celebrating a win!

I blame O'Neill.

Even for the mess made by houllier ,Lerner, and Mcleish?

O Neill wasted a fortune and it was time he left but he is by no means to blame for everything that's happened since he left.

He was the start of it all. His legacy is the cause of where we are now.

Christ, i heard the backtracking from here and i'm nowhere near Coventry.

I've never said Lerner is the 'bees knees' either. Along with Hunky Dory, you seem to be putting words into my mouth today. I just disagreed with your term that we are in a 'utter mess' that's all. It's poor on the pitch but that's up to Lambert to put right and Randy giving him some more money to spend in January.

Sort of like Thatcher, if you will. Or Gordon Brown, if you prefer

What mess did Houllier actually leave us in? He left us in 9th, sold no one of note and left us with Bent, the kind of player we've said we've wanted for years.

We finished 9th with Mcallister at the helm, when houllier took Ill we were deep in trouble fighting relegation.

So he didn't leave us in a mess then?

I was'nt a Houiller fan to be honest but it's unfair to say he left us in a mess. His signings were actually very good but the players did'nt seem to take to him and maybe management had passed him by.
