Lambert in or out? Poll reset with majority 'in', 7th May

[Lamb_Stockmix]

Nonsense thread. It amazes me how some football fans speak without thinking.

[hilts_coolerking]

It's amazing how this team of ours can be so bad, yet they can play a team who are much better, not lose, and still be bad.

What is amazing is how we can spend so much money over five or six years and still end up worse off than Swansea.

Your point being?

Just as it says.

[Fergal]

Can we change the name of this thread to Lambert in? As only 23 people think he should be sacked....

[saunders_heroes]

We could have 5-0 down after 10 minutes.That was worse than anything against Chelsea.

Exactly. Our defence is comical. Lambert has to take his share of the blame. I don't get why some fans are so shocked that other have called for the manager's head. This season so far has been humiliating. If McLeish was still in charge with these performances they'd be a riot.

Stop burying your head in the sand, Dave. We were appalling first half and we got lucky. We can't rely on luck to keep us in the PL this season.

I'm not burying anything, anywhere. It's getting a bit tedious to read that whenever we lose we're bad yet when we don't lose we're 'lucky'.

So what's the reason we've been so appalling this season, Dave, bad luck?

How about a few years of piss poor management by the owner and his staff?

Absolutely, I agree. Lambert still should take his portion of the blame though. By the way, I'm not calling for his head. I want to see him properly backed in the transfer market. I'm just surprised that some fans on here are surprised they're are people calling for his head. Managers' have been sacked for a lot less.

Slight modification made to the thread title. Hope that's OK with you, Martin.

i think all villa fans will agree that we have underachieved, your comparison could be attributed to liverpool with the likes of olbeyun, swansea, everton, arsenal et al who are ahead of them in the league. lambert has shown great signs of doing good things with villa.

We've not been good enough - nobody's said any different and that's not what I was talking about so why change the subject?

We were lucky not to go in at halftime by at least 3 goals down, that's what I mean.
And what's all this nonsense about "changing the subject"? Grow up.

Haven't we taken four points off them this season?

[silhillvilla]

Were we really that bad again today ?

For a large part of the first half.
We rode our luck massively but got stuck in later on.

We have finally reached January. Do we want to waste at least a week of the transfer window by sacking the manager? Bringing in the best manager in the world will make no difference to a wafer thin,  inexperienced, injury riddled squad.

Agree fully, this is not a time to change manager and totally confuse the squad. It's about sticking together now. What was the Swansea ground like ? Good pubs , parking etc ? I hear they were very respectful to the 19th minute ?

Yep. And they're still 10 points ahead of us.

[danlanza]

If we sack Lambert then what are we going to do ? Please, get a grip of the situation. We are not relegated and we have plenty of time to put things right. "Rollercoaster season" was the favorite post pre season, now it's "Should we sack him". FFS, do we not need some stability inside our club ? And some bloody belief ?

You're right, he hasn't impressed me at all, but sacking him now would be madness. Nor do I think he's been properly backed. I want to see Lerner give him money to buy PL standard players, not lower league ones. Then we can judge him properly.

That's hysterical coming from you. A team that you reckon is the worst ever and doomed to relegation get a decent away point, against a supposed better team and all you can say is how lucky they are - yet again. When this is pointed out you talk about the rest of the season. That's changing the subject. Please tell me why I need to grow up for pointing that out. I'd love to know.

Lambert seems to know how to play Swansea, today would've been his fourth straight win against them if we'd hung on for an extra minute so a bit of a bogey manager for them.

Needs to work out how to stop some of the other teams in the league!
