Benteke - yes
Okore - we don't know yet.
Vlaar - ok.
Bacuna - no better than Lowton.
Kozak - limited .
He must also be responsible for Sylla, Tonev , El Ahmadi and Helenius then.

I'm sure he is, but you implied he had the 'easiest job in football', when clearly it was a pointless remark to mark.
When did FFD imply that Lambert had the "easiest job in football clamps?"

He didn't,  he suggested the European scout did.

I think people are reading a great deal into very little. I see Kendrick writting an article reflective of the mood and frustrations of some supporters. Its gone down very well, so surely he has done his job?

Too many budding Oliver Stones on here pouring over Kendrick's work as if it were the Zapruder film.

I'm with you on this one. Are we really crediting the people who have overseen the last 4 seasons with the intelligence, nous and cunning to come up with some really Machiavellian scheme here to flush out antipathy to Lambert so that they can bin him?

Sad that they would need to find out people's feelings regarding lambert - surely they can see for themselves  what's going on - then again probably not :(

He didn't, it was our European scout. Which is what Clampy is refuting considering the number of players we've signed from Europe.

Speculation can be fun but no matter what the motivation for the article is I think the main point is the content isn't it?

I assume it was a left-over comment that he'd saved from the O'Neill days.

I don't think Matt Kendrick got it quite right, the Villa fans are not apathetic, they're just stuck between a rock and a hard place and it's a real shit place to be.

Actually Kendrick does spell out why he thought Villa fans are in a dilemma so he didn't simply say "we're apathetic".

He makes a valid defence for the apathy of the matchday crowd, agreed. I'm not reading any conspiracy behind his comments but he is highlighting the "sense of disillusionment" amongst the fanbase that seems to go unnoticed by those at the club. If that's true and there's little reason to question him, it just furthers my thought on the whole Catch 22 scenario. What a bloody mess.

Maybe if we started a Facebook group, and if we all tweeted @AVFCOfficial a bit, set up ohmygodhowdiditcometothis.tumblr.com, and started tweeting famous people "PLEASE RT, VILLA FANS SICK OF US BEING SHIT" we could propel ourselves to Champions League glory?

Has anyone checked ohmygodlookhowfarwevefallen.com? Is it available?

Or maybe we should launch a kickstarter campaign and see if we can crowd fund a decent player?

I like the crowd funded player suggestion but it would probably be spent on signing Grant Holt on a £25k a week permanent deal.

No, somebody in Guildford, Surrey owns it. My guess is it's a Man Utd fan.
