Richard, what point are you trying to prove when telling people you knew all along this how it would end up? None of us really know how things are going to turn out, and if you end up being right or wrong it still doesn't mean you knew it all along. Right now, I don't see any value in scoring points. We should all be in this together, and for the first time most people on here are of the same opinion. It's not a good day.

I realise it's difficult for those who were backing him right up to last week to admit they were wrong. I empathise with you as I thought he was the right man when we took him on and so I was wrong too. I just realised it ages ago. Those who didn't have taken great delight in telling us all to 'man up' or 'grow a pair' or some such other language over the last few weeks. They seemed to be revelling in the fact that they thought we were wrong. And if you Toronto, think I've revelled in it, then touche mate, I had you down as better than that. We can all be sanctimonious...

I don't think I've ever read a post from anyone so happy that their team has lost.

I didn't know all along, I just knew ages ago. So did loads of other people. Others wanted to believe it may all turn out alright. It may still turn out fine. So what, big deal. I didn't see any value in you scoring points on the previous page either or in all the other point scoring that the 'pro' posters have gone with on here over the last few weeks. However, I didn't say anything. I'm glad we all realise what a mess we are in, not that we are in a mess.

I wanted Lambert to get the job, I thought he would improve us. I have been watching Aston Villa for 44 years and I have to say this is the most despondent I have felt about the club I love. The apathy comes right from the top, Lerner needs to come out and state what his vision for the club is or does he want rid of the club and there will be little further investment. As for the manager, I agree we have some very average players but the tactics are dire and he does not appear to have a scooby. Having another vodka before watching this,

I said before that I think Lambert deserves a medal the size of a dustbin lid for the job he has done at Villa and I stand by it even after todays game.

I say it based on the financial constraints we have as a club given the importance of balancing the books after two to three years of heavy losses.

I also look at the job Martinez and Rogers have done at their respective clubs and feel Lambert could do the same here once more solid foundations have been built.

Agreed. I happily stand behind Lambert and Lerner. Not happy with the past 3 results or the clubs plummet from grace but I like the pair of them.
