We have to try and stay up for the money at the end of the season.

Lambert has to go and a new man has to be given funds

This all has to happen in the next few days

Other wise we're down and the consequences of missing the cash could be disastrous long term.

Time to take the big decision, Randy.

NOW!



Bang on the button!

If the owner has lost faith in the manager he will therefore  not give him money to spend - maybe today is the tipping point , we know randy has the money , I hope if he does replace lambert he gives any new man some money.

 

If Lerner has lost faith with him, and so doesn't want to give him the money, then he must sack him now.

If anything is going to ensure our relegation, it'd be a dead duck manager with no money to spend.

It just feels normal now to lose week in week out.I just feel numb

Its how I feel. I'm beyond angry, I'm just numb. I'm genuinely preparing myself for Villa being a Championship club next season.

We are poor in so many departments, but the most inept of all of these are Tweedle Gingery Dum and Tweedle Yankee Dee whose clueless management of a football club is beyond belief.

PL on 5 live, sounds even more rambling than normal. Sounded clueless and 'keep on going' bullshit.

Sorry lads we're fucked, and I say that as somebody has been trying to stay positive. If I was Lambert I'd resign.

I'm the same as you Sandy. I've been as positive as anyone on here for three very long years. I think I'm all out of "benefit of the doubt" and I'm simply exhausted by the decline.

Time for Lambert to go. When you get 0 points from 6 against fellow strugglers at home then it means you are going down unless things change. As usual we were just a long ball team just like last season. Though at least we were more effective at it under McLeish. Oh and Benteke should be dropped so he knows he isn't undroppable. Randy is in the country and was probably at VP to watch that. So if that doesn't make him realise we are going down unless we act, nothing will.

Lambert is using what he has, unfortunately 6 or 7 players arent really all that good. Its out of the managers hand what players do in terms of making the right choices with a pass, a shot etc

McLeish did better with, essentially, the same team.
Really....Collins, Dunne, Warnock, Hutton, Cuellar, Petrov (half season), Heskey :-) etc

Lambert is fine it is the journeyman players who want the money but do not put in the effort for it that are the problem.

Comical defending. Never mind about the penalty, the defending leading to it was fucking abysmal.

How we didn't score I don't know.

We're going down.

We dont need a new manager we need some decent players, preferably ones that can help organise the team and fill the obvious weakneses.

Also Delph was great today.

Some people need to learn to think for themselves.
Ai mades some crucial tackles and some not bad over the top balls for Chris and Andi to latch on to.

You just can't please some people.

I know it's off topic but does anyone know how to turn off the warning you get telling you that new replies have been posted whenever I try to post something???? It's so annoying.
