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

[aj2k77]

I hate Lambert.

His interviews represent him perfectly as a manager, boring, repetitive, sleep inducing.

Going into the season him buying more younger players only made matters worse.

He's a clueless ****** and I can't handle having to hear another one of his post match press confrences.

Is there anything to like about our club at the moment?

From Beeb live feed.

We haven't got long left, so it might be a bit naughty of me to pose these questions, but I will anyway. Has anything gone right for Villa since Martin O'Neill put out that weakened team in the Europa League? Secondly, since O'Neill, Villa have tried Houllier, McLeish and now Lambert. Is constantly changing manager the way to go? Are the problems elsewhere?

It doesn't matter about whether Lambert is a good or bad manager.  He is doing a shocking job right now, with the players he has.  If he stays as our manager it is probable we will be relegated.  With that on his CV he will never be accepted as manager at Villa.  It really is a complete no-brainer that he must leave now, while there is still time for somebody to rouse the players we have (we're clearly not buying any new ones) into an unlikely survival.  Maybe somebody will then buy the club in the summer.

I can't believe there's anyone who still supports Lerner's yes-man. What does he care? He's still got a job next season

[SamTheMouse]

Get your coat Lambert...

[Legion]

Sod waiting until 1st February. Out.

[Ross]

He's got some front. How he can turn up for work tomorrow....

[aj2k77]

He won't even have the decency to resign and save us a few million on sacking him. Waiting to hear the usual

''Cant keep conceding from set pieces, it was criminal''
''Players gave there all out there''
''We have to stick together and come out fighting''
''Wont buy players for the sake of it''
''We go again........''

Who exactly is he looking to sign? Someone for a fiver who will pay us to play.

[claret and blue blood]

Thought Tuesday was bad but I can't ever remember feeling as hopeless as this.That PR flunky on WM before the game told us exactly how deluded Lerner is.

[PaulWinch again]

Regardless of the fucking moron in charge of our club a lot of our problems are down to Lambert and he must go for that. He can't organise set piece defending or even the most basic tactical instruction, for that he must go.

[Monty]

He just looks like he's had the will sapped out of him. He should resign to save us the money out of decency, and because it would be good for him as well frankly.

[ozzjim]

I genuinely think the size of the job has drowned him

How he is not banging at Faulkner and Lerner for 2-3 players is beyond me, but I am starting to think it would not make a difference. Get him out now, get Adkins in before it is too late and he goes elsewhere and give the place a bit of something different.

OR give it Martin Laursen and Sid Cowans as 1-2 and try and put some pride and love back in the place. We need something to galvanise the fans, at the moment there is just bleak nothingness.

Not felt this bad since O'Leary.

[James]

Surprised that it's 50/50 now. Lerner is hugely at fault, and that muppet Fuckner, but Lambert? If I was as poor at my job as he is I'd walk away. If I was as poor at my job as he is I'd get sacked, summarily dismissed, and I'd be lucky to get paid up to my finishing date, much less a couple of years worth on top as 'compensation' for my abject failure! It's horrendous.

[PaulWinch again]

and O'Leary had a few good players.

[SamTheMouse]

Adkins was my choice last summer, but I'm not sure what he would do differently. The big problem is still the lack of quality players. Whether it's Randy's refusal to invest or Lambert's inability to convince potential signings to come, it's going to fuck us.

Are we allowed a Lerner In / Out poll?
