Dave do you have to patronise and misrepresent everybody who dares disagree with you?

So blindingly obvious what he was arguing there but he got the usual treatment.

And you aren't properly engaging with any of the points raised.

WHat's the bloody point anymore. Just fed up.

Because it's preferable to being so twisted that you start to say relegation was a success.
I'm not sure anyone's said that though.  Relegation = bad season.  Promotion = good season.  I wouldn't have described that as a giant leap away from conventional football wisdom.  Promotion = bad season.  Now that has been said and it is a bit puzzling.

Being there in the first place = absolute disaster. In the circumstances worse than anything any other chairman of any club has ever overseen.

Well it may happen with the chairman we have now. Will you criticise him then?

But promotion is essentially a good season though right?  As opposed to the bad one the season before?

Am I not allowed to disagree with anyone now? One minute I'm having a decent debate, the next I'm having my throat jumped down and when I have a go back I'm in the wrong.

Depends whether a) we go down and b) we were European champions five years earlier.

You're quite capable of jumping down the throats of posters you don't agree with as well.

Indeed. But the strange thing is that they don't seem to get picked up on it.

I think a good season is relative, if we go down then obviously its a bad season.  As things are looking at the moment if we manage to stay up on goal difference I would be happy about that, not think it's a good season but relieved.
If we go down then not coming straight back up is a bad season, getting back up would be a good season.  None of those scenarios would really make me think WOW what a brilliant season...

One of the barometers of 'a good season' is seeing how many season tickets are sold for the following season. We hear the same things every year: 'wait for summer', 'wait for January'. I will renew but not because I think it is going to get better. It would be nice to have an excited feeling about things when the fixtures arrive. However, all I can think of is a Manager plus his cronies who have arrived at Villa Park and who seem to think that we will just have to like the way that they operate. I certainly don't like it. This argument has been to-ing and fro-ing all night. It probably needs splitting into two now as it is getting muddled. Who is for or against Lambert and, likewise, Lerner?

Lets not forget we also finished 11th in the season we were European champions - I must agree with these other posters that I find your reluctance to criticise the way the club is being run rather perplexing .

The way it's being run being not spending shit loads of money?

Apart from the big mistake of TSM, where has Randy really gone wrong?

The vast majority wanted MON, most were happy with PL and GH didn't look to be that bad at the time.

So, TSM and not spending loads of money, which he's now doing because he originally spent shit loads of money. How many clubs spend lots? Not many. Why should we be any different? Do you want us to constantly spend money we don't have?

There was a mention earlier of someone, not connected with this site, wanting a job with the club. That may be an old tale, I don't know. If the job that he/she wanted was to represent fans then, surely, it would be a sticky wicket for him/her. He/she would hardly be able to represent fans with real gripes on the footballing side or concern with the board in general. He/she could convey messages about pies, tickets and Bovril, all of which are things that the Club can control and are perfectly valid customer complaints / compliments. Would that really be what he/she wanted to do? If someone said 'Please represent me. I think Lambert must go.' Would he/she really tell them that and risk losing his/her job.
