After that.

Houllier?

Before that.

MON, surely.

SGTII?

We've done it once since his full season, we won 11 at home in 02/03.

After that.

Before that.

MON, surely.

Which season though?

What is Villa's worst ever home record in the PL? Or is this it?

I'm assuming McLeish, 4 wins, 7 draws, 19 points.

I think the same. I'll check.

I just checked, and it is.

11 points from 13 games so far I think , could be on course for another lambert record.

I will be amazed if we get the 9 points necessary to break McLeish's hideous record

02-03.

02-03.

We've done it once since then, under Pubey.

Mmmmm I think 2008/09 was the closest we came to cracking the top 4 so I'd guess that one.

[PeterWithesShin]

Before checking, that would have been my guess but no. We won 7 at home that season.

[Legion]

Spill the beans please. I have a head-ache now.

07/08. We won 10. The only time we've managed it since 02/03 (11 wins in the season SGT got booed by wankers who claim to support this club). We really are crap at home regardless of who is in charge or how much money is spent.

I remember that vividly. I sent SGT a letter about the letter I had printed in the E&S. He was gracious enough to send me a reply on his last day in the job. Top, top man.

When will Lambert stop this ridiculous idea of playing narrow at home. When Albrighton came on we looked a different side if i can see it why can't he. The reason Lambert won't be sacked is because he and Lerner are on the same page, get the wages down and then he will get some money to spend. I dont criticise Clark because when Vlaar is with him he is adequate but i'm afraid Baker should never get a gig in the first team, third dividion quality at best.

The worrying thing is, West Ham are really abysmally shite...yes, SHITE! and we still looked worse than them! Please, Randy get rid of PL asap!! Even Steve Bruce or Pulis could do a better job. Fact is, apart from Benteke and Okore, the only decent players left are the ones you inherited ( Albrighton, Delph, Clark). Worrying times indeed!!

Jores, Jores, FFS please please get fit asap - and big Ron!!!

I saw him outside the North Stand after the game. He looked fine and was walking normally, so he can't be that far off.
Incidentally he was wearing a full track suit but with shoes on. He looked most peculiar.

I go to about 6/7 home games a season, the last time I saw us win at home was against Fulham in the Mcleish season, the time before that was Mcleish's first home game in charge against Blackburn, so fuckin depressing.
