I can only see regression in terms of football and now we're so close to going down - again. Nowhere near good enough. Lambert has had time and money. Lerner has had so much time and so many mistakes to learn from. 10 home defeats for the first time ever apparently. Something's got to give because this isn't Aston Villa.

The thing I don't get about so many people on this site is that they say without a) a new manager and b) lots of new investment, we're fucked. Surely if b) is true, then we can't blame a) entirely, and vice versa. It doesn't make sense.

Personally, I think it is possible to get by on the sort of strategy we're running but it's clearly a big risk - and the problem we have is we're trying to build this ethos in the premier league. It's almost more suitable as a strategy once you've dropped a division and are rebuilding.

10 defeats at home and still Lambert is in charge of the Villa. How much more humiliation is this man going to inflict on our club?
LAMBERT OUT!!

1 point better off than at same stage last season. Amazing improvement.

And odds on to finish with less than 41 and possibly less than the 38 McLeish managed.

He has to go at the end if the season. The players he has signed are shite and his tactics are woeful.
You could see from the start if the 2nd half Fulham looked dangerous with their two substitutions. Lambert either didn't see it if ignored it. The bloke ain't up to the job. Get your coat and do one.

This is Aston Villa. 2011-14 and still sinking.

Less than Mcleish and he has to go no questions asked.

I think we may stay up but this isn't going to last forever we can no keep not investing and scambling for our lives season after season.

Is the 14 defeats in 19 true? I can't bring myself to check that particularly abysmal stat

Eleven defeats in last 18 league games. 4 wins. 3 draws.

So, 15 from the last 54 points?

I don't know what is worse. That record or the fact that Randy and the Boy Wonder will doubtless think he's doing a good job.

This club is run by fucking chumps from the top down. Clueless nobodies willing to accept mediocrity as the ceiling for success. Unfortunately, we the fans have been ground down to accept this shit and stumble on in our ongoing quest for mid table safety. Well fuck it, I've had enough, I'm out.

Awful.

Had some great chances to score.

Going to be closer than last season if we are to stay up.

I got this wrong, I had us losing 4-1 again. Clearly we are not as bad as I thought we were. Lambert must be so proud of the lads.

I'll stop being so negative.

It's equally disgusting.

Houllier was sacked for much less than this!
