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

[Villafirst]

It's quite depressing everytime I go on the bbc website there's a picture of Lambert looking hopeless at the top of the page. It sums up the fact he doesn't know what he's doing.

Any other club would have sacked their manager by now - he should've gone after the Wigan game and certainly after the Southampton defeat. It's a results business and failure goes with the territory. OUT!

This weekend I'm going away with the missus, and it'll be the first time that I haven't bothered to follow Villa's score. I just don't want them to ruin my weekend away.

Aside from Lambert's "we go again" mantra, the most annoying thing he's said to date is: "We'll be fine." And then, when asked how, the answer: "We just will."

I can't think of any underperforming senior manager in any industry that would retain a shred of credibility after coming out with that childish crap.

Oh good Lambert's found a new pet phrase to replace "go again"

We are in a fight, everybody is in a fight, it's all about fighting," Lambert told BBC Radio 5 live.

And Lambert knows he is under no illusions how desperate the situation is.

"We are going to have to fight like hell to get ourselves out of it," he said,

"We are in a fight like everyone else. You have to fight for it. It's not going to get given to you."

He talks a good fight i'll say that. Pity he doesn't put it into practise.

Following villa has become a chore. A fellow Irish villan was hoping to have a Villa themed stag in Birmingham but is having second thoughts now. It would have been great to go over for a weekend with a group of us but what is the point in ruining what should be one of the best weekends of his life? Watching what is happening to the club is painful.

Just to add, none of us would have any complaints if we dropped having given it our best shot. If we signed a few players and fought for every point we know we'd have given it our best shot. As things stand we are just sliding into the Championship and aren't doing a single thing, on or off the pitch, to avert the slide.

Bear with me here...

There's a character in the Russell Crowe film Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World who is considered an unlucky omen, a 'Jonah' by the rest of the crew.  He is accused of bringing bad luck to the ship and the crew shy away from him despite there being no rationale reason for this.  The ship becomes stranded by a lack of wind and the crew are on the verge of mutiny.  The Jonah commits suicide by jumping into the sea and by chance the winds pick up and everyone lives happily ever after.

For the sake of the good ship Aston Villa I think we need our own Jonah Lambert to jump overboard (metaphorically speaking of course).

There's a good team in there somewhere and they show it in patches.  They're not just inconsistent from match to match it's from half to half.  I think we need someone new to just shake things up, get them to play the right system and teach them how to defend bloody corners...  I had hoped he may be able to turn things around but it's not looking likely...

Do the decent thing Paul, there's no shame in walking away.

Maybe we should run a book on who scores the most. You or the Villa. Or for the masochists we can include Everton.

Ha ha well I'll sacrifice my own physical pleasure for a Villa win.

Our only hope of survival is to jettison this mealy mouthed shithead.

And there is absolutely zero chance of that.

Paul Lambert can breathe a sigh of relief.  He's been backed - by Alex Mcleish:
