We've conceded 16 since we last scored a league goal. A truly appalling stat.

 Today, I have missed my first home game for nearly 20 years. My son, home from uni and out with his pals, was beaten up last night and I spent the afternoon at the hospital with him.
It seems like I picked a good game to miss.

I' d still like to get my hands on the fckers who did it though.

What we need is a 6 foot 5, built like a brick shitehouse midfielder who gets stuck in. Our midfield is too lightweight. A leader at the back wouldn't do any harm  either.

Three players, right up the middle of the pitch.

Lambert making excuses now: "the club's been in relegation scraps for the past three years, so..."

I have calmed down.

We can't sack Lambert. It may not be delivering anything, but his plan is the only concrete thing we have had to go on since 2010. We have to stick with it. We have to hope we get six wins from somewhere.

If we go back to the drawing board yet again it will take time for the new plan/players to gel. Sticking with Lambert is the only show in town.

I am beginning to detest the owner though. Has he said anything this year?

That's not good to hear. Why didn't his mates back his case?

I've seen three Villa sides that have been an absolute disgrace to the shirt:
The side relegated to the Third Division, Billy McBingo's blundering relegated side, now Lambert's hapless class of 2013.

Lambert on final score now

What did he say?

Och och nee nee och och ne blootered och nee nah nee. I can never understand a word he's saying. Nor can his team , evidently

He's right, it has been. Where's Lerner? What has he said? He's been there during those three scaps.

Yes, and we also need to bring the likes of Bent, N'Zogbia and Wanrnock back. We may not be their biggest fans but we need their experience in the team. We look like someone lifted a League 2 outfit and placed them into Villa shirts

This team would struggle in the Championship.
I agree 100% - What I see in front of me will probably be lower half rather than upper half of the Championship and that's before any worthwhile layers leave after relegation.
