Aston Villa v Wigan Athletic Post-Match Thread

[PaulWinch again]

Fucking awful again. Enough of this, 'we go again' bollocks because it's clear to see that probably three quarters of our squad aren't good enough. There's not point naming names, it's clear to see who they are. Unless something drastic is done in January we're buried. These last three results are as bad as I remember as a sequence.

[Boz]

Just hope 2013 will turn things around, otherwise we're doomed.

Clueless football with no idea about creating chances and a defence with too much pressure placed on it.

PL needs to re-think his plan or his reputation is shot.

The long term is good but not at the risk of a short term disaster

[Tuscans]

At least Cameron Jerome has kept us out of the relegation zone...but we cant rely on Cameron every week!

[Toronto Villa]

Two Liverpool supporting mates have texted me bewildered at how the fuck they lost handily to us just a couple of weeks ago. I have no answer.

[Apyadg]

im truly ashamed at how pathetic we are. Lerner has ruined this once great club. Time to sell

A potential buyer would need to be mentally deficient to buy this club at the moment, and let's face it, Lerner can't sell it to himself.

[Olof's Beard]

At least we bravely held on for a 3-0 defeat.

[villadelph]

Fack off Villa you're a disgrace.

[Fergal]

Gutted at the score and what we have become...

[TonyD]

No idea where we go from here.   The team is well and truly lost.

[Rigadon]

I can't think of a Villa team more inept than the one I've watched over the last week or so.

If McLiesh would've served anything like as bad as the last 3 games, people would've been rabid.  Lambert probably is a better manager, but I'm not sure he can turn this around.   So, I'm not sure he should continue as our manager - right now, we are dead certainties to be relegated and that just isn't good enough for Villa. 

Yes, Lerner's ownership is largely to blame for teh current plight but Randy aint going to sell the club in January.  We *might* be better off with another manager so I think it at least has to be considered. 

[Boz]

Very poor , totally bereft of ideas and I am having serious doubts about lamberts selections , tactics and formation- nowhere near good enough!

Totally agree, he's not the messiah we hoped for.

[Irish villain]

We are such a laughing stock right now. It is heartbreaking.

It doesn't feel like Aston Villa anymore does it?

[Goldie.7]

Lets give Wigan some credit they came with a plan and it worked perfect. Us on the other hand offered nothing, played extremely poor and once again got what we deserved fuck all.

[pauliewalnuts]

Lerner needs to realise that the only way his fantasy about us being self supporting coming true is if we stay in this league for the extra large TV deal next season.

Right now, it isn't looking too promising.

I appreciate we have an injury crisis, but really, it was never going to take much in terms of injuries for this squad to be down to the absolute bare bones, and that's what we've seen today and in recent games.

Experience needed in January, and lots of it.

Throwing more lower league, low wages players at this is not going to solve anything.

[Fergal]

Fack off Villa you're a disgrace.

Cut that out.... We may be shit but 'Fuck off Villa'? really?
