Aston Villa v Tottenham Hotspur Post-Match Thread

yeah, maybe just throw another £30m at it then slag him off agian in the summer when we're still struggling.

I would be amazed if Dunne ever kicks a ball for us again, wasn't his recent op a last throw of the dice? PL has also said that Clark is no midfielder. Need Bannan back in Saturday. I would also go with Lowton at CH. Might be worth trying Bowery and Benteke together up front. We are down to the bare bones.

Fair play to the Villa faithful last night the last ten minutes filled me with pride something that we as a club

are sadly lacking at the moment. For me the honeymoon period is reaching an end for Lambert and he really

deserves an awful lot of criticism for his tactics over the last two games as his team set up was inept and the buck does stop

with him. For the 2nd goal we were 2 against 4 at the back which is totally unforgiveable against a counterattacking side.

Worryingly people have even stopped texting to take the piss and even had pity texts off plastics which believe me is

even worse.

Did Lerner not sanction the overrated players on high wages?
Did Lerner not appoint houllier and Mcleish who both flopped?
Is Lerner not the man with whom the buck stops ?
Is he not the man who should be showing leadership rather than bing absent?
Were Lerner and his sidekick not the men to talk about champions league ambition ?
Yes too bloody right he has to carry a lot of blame for the state of things , sell your best players and buy cheap replacements on low wages and what do you expect?

I'll slag him at £30m straight away, as it's not enough to bring the squad up to the right standard.

Not a Lerner fan by any stretch but the summer he and Faulkner are in credit for the way they went

about the business of getting rid of TSM and bringing in PL. He did also back his man to some extent.

Should they get any credit for it?
They righted a huge wrong of their own making.
In fact it's too early yet to say they have got it right.

The Board are as much to blame as the managers and players and I hope they support PL and not leave him to carry the can. Randy was there last night and so hopefully it was a wake up call. Do it on the cheap and the outcome is inevitable.

I'm using my battery up scrolling down millions of quotes; I really hope we win on Saturday as the more we lose the bigger the quotathon, or so it seems.

The point being that Mcleish should never have had the job to start with so I'm not going to praise him for sacking someone who should never have been there.

Lambert seems a good appointment but I am beginning to doubt him at the moment , lets see how he does on January.

Lets hope he was at Chelsea too and will have seen for himself how short of quality we are.

When I saw Parker coming on, I thought to myself that he's just the sort of player we need.

Instead we have to contend with the likes of KEA and bomb scare Holman.

Holman reminds me of those blokes you see fighting for the rebels in the various conflicts in middle east. Rushing from  one building to another aimlessly giving the impression of "fighting" without inflicting any damage to anyone! (looks good on CNN and Sky News)

Hiring TSM was possibly the craziest Villa managerial appointment ever.

3,000 Villa fans sang Lambert's name at Norwich in May and he's our manager now. We got who i presume the majority wanted and we've got to back the guy. Up until Chelsea, we were starting to look a decent side. It's gone horribly wrong in the last two games but it can be put right.

If pestria's claims about him are right, he wouldn't have seen the game, he'd have been in the bogs having a grief wank.

On the back of a glowing reference from Siralex.
Vomit inducing.
