I still can't believe I have to see this thread everytime I login to this website.  Any of you who think Lambert is not an improvement on the sacks of shit who were on the bench last year and did so much to destroy the great name of our club need to spend some time on the naughty step.

In what way is this season better than last so far?   It isn't.

I didn't understand the mass jubilation when we got Lambert, in the same way I didn't understand the mass hysteria last season.   Two shit managers, with a shit squad.   What do you expect to happen on the pitch?   The only difference is one of them didn't work for that lot down the road.

I didn't get this either, his appointment was truly underwhelming.

There is a huge difference in approach, that is obvious. Lambert wants to win games and is prepared to try. Whether he has the skill to manage this bunch of players to get results is a moot point but at least he's trying.

I'd rather go down fighting than go down hiding.

His mentality is to gamble to win, which is a big gamble as we could well end up relegated, however to compare him with that abomination of negativity who is the real culprit for our forgetting how to win last season shows a memory loss on our part.
He sent on bent and Weimann yesterday while we were 1-0 up, naive ? maybe but at least it shows a mentality of trying to win. I really hope we survive this season and rediscover our pride and a winning mentality , then maybe we can look back at this period and appreciate someone trying to regain the soul of a club which was all but killed last season.

What was the attendance yesterday ? Watching on telly here the top of the Holte looked half empty, the top of Trinity and the North stand looked the same.

Just been browsing a few websites and the name of Harry redknapp keeps being bandied about - id stick with lambert but I doubt if we are cut adrift at Xmas whether randy would panic and go for uncle Harry .

He'll end up at QPR if anywhere.

Wouldn't surprise me if Hughes is sacked this week to be honest.

If Lerner does panic and get rid of Lambert we will be lucky to see a decent manager within miles of Villa Park. As for bloody Bagpuss, no thanks, never. We have to stick with what we have got or else we really are in trouble.
Worst scenario is if we are still in the shite by Christmas then funds have to be made available to strengthen. That said, we have to be very carefull who we go after.

Not sure why Redknapp is mentioned ..didn't he go to Southampton in trouble and relegate them? He is good when he has good players and a budget ..which he wouldn't have here so I doubt he could get anything else of the current squad.

I  was pleased we had got him as it was about the best we could get, we've become a small act these days.

This is Randy Lerner's mess not Lambert's. No point sacking a top manager to bring in Harry unless you hand him £50m.

Randy has got us into this mess, let him take the flak not Paul Lambert who is trying to work miracles with the worst group of villa players I have seen since I started supporting in 1994 as a nine year old. He hadn't much money to spend but had a heap of holes to fill.

We need a win so badly.

The furthest north that wide boy has ever worked is Tottenham.
He doesn't even know how to find his way to Villa Park apart from when he has been driven here with a bus full of overpaid prima donnas.
Uncle Harry for Xmas? Do me a favour - you would have to give a give a give a Garmin.

I think the myth about who we like to think we can attract and who we really can attract was demonstrated when MON left - it was the Curbishleys and McClarens.
