Aston Villa v Crystal Palace Post-Match Thread

[Tuscans]

Well so far there has been "manger reaction" from every other manager.....accept Lambert! A sign he's been told to sod off......??

[CJ]

I'm fed up with coming on here week after week and saying 'another shocking performance' and  'too many players simply not good enough'. Palace were far and away the worst team I've seen at Villa Park in a long time - except for us. Our football is now an embarrassment. I liked the idea of what Lambert was trying to do but I've now slipped over the fence to the 'he's just not good enough' side. The worst stat I heard on the way home was that Villa have scored less goals at home this season than any other team in the English leagues. Another relegation battle looms and this year (to date) we haven't got Benteke's goals to get us out of it. I really fear the worst.

Any post match interview?

Seems delayed tonight - hopefully faulkner is walking him around the rose garden.

I wouldn't be entirely surprised.

Another manager has just got the bullet for bad results ,Millwall have just sacked their manager .Seems only at villa could a manager be so bad and keep his job

Watch this space.

Interesting either he's locked the team in the dressing room for ages properly unleasing the riot act or yes he is meeting the directors.

I'd still be amazed if he loses his job tonight.

See you all in 48 hours for the depressing reality of another home game at Villa Park!

No such luck...

I'd be gob-smacked if he was given the sack before the Swansea game.

[Tuscans]

Would we all say if we lose to Swansea then he goes??

Me too. I think he'll have been expected to win at least one of the home games, and he still has another chance.

Can't see it happening unless we lose the next 3 in all honesty. Faulkner would have to admit another recruitment error. It would or most definitely should reflect badly on him. I take reflecting badly on Lerner as a given.

[Irish villain]

Something isn't quite right though. We should be improving that was the whole point of 'young and hungry'?

Anyone else get the impression there is something wrong in the dressing room? They had more fight in them last year, and worked harder. All in my opinion of course.

We shouldn't be really. His record is awful.

Avtv have spoken to him afterwards.

Great endeavour and effort says Lambert
