Aston Villa v West Ham United Post-Match Thread

That was dire. The worst thing for me was that when we actually fucking woke up after albrighton came on, we created loads of chances. Where the fuck were we in the first half?

Worst display I've seen in a long time and relegation material in all honesty.

Lowton, baker, Clark, bacuna just not good enough and lambert seems to have lost the plot completely with his tactics. I've been in his corner all season and stuck up for him, but that was absolute shite.

The whole club needs revitalising, on and off the pitch.

This has been obvious for a very long time.

Whilst we are far from safe from it, I don't think we'll go down, but the last few years have created a situation in which, finally, eventually, we are going to get relegated, it just looks like we're auditioning for the Championship. Certainly if we are happy to bob along like this.

Also full marks to whoever thought it'd be a good idea to start talking to a far from convincing manager who has produced one of the dullest Villa sides in years about a new contract so early?

He's quite clearly under no pressure whatsoever. One can only assume they don't actually watch the matches.

I had no idea what he was trying to do today, none at all. The first half, the strikers might as well not have been on the pitch.

What odds are being offered for Villa to be relegated compared to the other candidates?

16/1 before the game on will hill.

Looking forward to spending rest of season relying on others to keep us up ..well done Lambert & Lerner

There was me thinking we could get 3 wins on the bounce. Its laughable now. Didn't Faulkner say Lambert was doing his best to sort out the home form.

Good odds if there's any Villa fans who can make this bet, head over heart perhaps. Compared to those below us now 16/1 is good but I imagine they've come down after today and will again after Cardiff if we lose.

No surprises for me today. You create a Championship side and it will play like a Championship side and sooner or later end up in the............ You guessed it.

I'm beginning to think, this is the year. 27 points won't look so many in a few weeks time.

There is nothing any manager can do when good players like Delph have a brain freeze.

My Albion supporting mate is laying right into Franksy here!

I fooking hate it when big Sam "out tactics" us

[saunders_heroes]

8/13 home games lost and the disgrace that is Paul Lambert is offered a new contract.
Quite unbelievable.

[kippaxvilla2]

I think if we go down then Smethwick will certainly go down because as bad as we are they are atrocious.

[PeterWithesShin]

Why are some folks giving Baker and Clark stick? Did I miss something and they were to blame for the goals?

[caster troy]

Desperately poor, terrifyingly predictable.

Even the slightest suggestion of a new contract for Lambert is an absolute piss-take. I'd rather burn £500 cash on the centre spot in June than get another season ticket with that clown in charge. He makes McLeish look like Guardiola, should have been sacked after Sheffield United.
