Aston Villa v Southampton Post-Match Thread

[London Villan]

Luck isn't one goal at home in the last 6 league games.

Is the reason we are playing Millwall away on a Friday night so that we can get used to games being on at this time next season - you know like when your kid starts school for the first time, they only go in the morning initially until they get used to it.

The goals that need to be scored are not , have not scored at home since November, who ever they did get to replace PL and as has been said you would not trust these two RL and PF to pick their nose, but something has to change

If lambert goes we need a new manager lined up to come in fast as wolves did with Saunders.

Paul Lamber has stated on final score that we were excellent second half, Was this true as I wasen't there?

Not from what I was watching. Decent start, faded, let them get on top again, they hit the post, manic last 10 minutes.

In no way were we terrific or did we control the game and this against another relegation candidate.

Managing Norwich Wycombe is a totally different proposition to taking over Aston Villa and trying to arrest its decline with a limited budget.

He hasnt pulled it off.

I would take Saunders

That wouldn't be a smart move.

Why did it take us 75 minutes and a wanker ref to get a head of steam up? Can't Lambert get them up for such a big game from the off? We are so devoid of creativity and fight it's untrue.  And to be half way through January without the players we have known that we needed before Xmas is unforgivable. We will be relegated because we didn't act when we knew what was needed to give us a chance.

Haven't read the thread yet but before I gather my thoughts....... I was looking elsewhere when Halsey awarded the penalty - didn't see the incident but on the way back WM said no way should it have been given. Was it 1-0 to the referee?

I wanted Saunders before Wolves got him. At least he's got some Villa in his heart and wont garble his way through press confrences like Rab C Lambert does. The only reason I know what he has said is because it's almost certainly the exact same shit he gave us last week after our last non performance.

If we as fans are living in dreamland for expecting Parkers and Lescotts then he is living in dreamland if he thinks Sheffield Utd and Chesterfield players are good signings for our club.

The candidates should be from;

Di Matteo
Di Canio
Poyet

The likely appointment will be from;

Lee Clark
Peter Withe
Mark Hughes.

Tarts and drama queens. I bet that's what General Custer was screaming as his men fell all around him.

My guess would be something along the lines of 'I have never seen so many frothing mouths screaming for blood'

It wasn't a penalty in the slightest but I don't think it made the slightest difference.
