I don't understand why some are squealing.The only thing I want to hear from the club at the moment is:"Paul Lambert has been fired."or"Randy Lerner has agreed to sell the club to...[insert multi-billionaires name]All this "we go again" guff might be innocuous but it's annoying. I want to see players doing their talking on the pitch, not hearing excuses for their shitness in the middle of the week.
The interview wasn't the piss take. This was though* Grant Holt's 15 minutes on the pitch v Swansea on Saturday featured one completed pass and two fouls.

But Holt wouldn't even have played, would he, without the serious injuries to the Beast and Kojak.

Holt was brought in to cover KozakStill a pointless move given that at that point Bentake was fit and Holt for me is too much like him, you know just without the skill or goals. I don't mind this at least its a player showing fighting talk and being positive.
He's a championship player is what you are trying to say
Loan striker Grant Holt open to staying at Aston Villa On-loan Wigan frontman enjoying life back in the Premier League but says he has not spoken with Paul Lambert about staying beyond loan spell Apr 30, 2014 22:30 By Mat Kendrick Grant Holt has hinted he would be open to staying at Aston Villa beyond this season’s loan spell.The Wigan striker has not yet spoken to Paul Lambert about the prospect of being with the claret and blues next season.And with all the uncertainty surrounding his own position, it is not likely to be the manager’s most pressing priority.But Holt has appreciated being back in the Premier League in the past four months and is keeping an open mind about his future.Wigan could return to the top flight next season after booking a play-off place by heaping more misery on Blues on Tuesday night.Holt is contracted to the Latics until the summer of 2016 and is due to report back to his parent club after Villa’s final three games.The 33-year-old targetman has scored one goal in three starts and seven substitute appearances since arriving on loan in mid-January.Villa will be without top scorer Christian Benteke for at least two months of next season and could be in the market for temporary striking reinforcements.Asked if there is the possibility of him staying longer, Holt replied: “It’s not a conversation I’ve had with him (Lambert).“I didn’t have it last week and I won’t have it this week. It’s up to me, in the games left, to play the way I am. I’m a Wigan player and contracted for two years and whatever happens between now and then we’ll see.“It’s nice to be back and involved in the Premier League. The difference is massive. I’ve been itching for a few weeks. I’ve been working hard and training hard.“You have to keep on top of it. It’s harder when you’re not playing because you’re not getting the minutes and you’ve got to keep working harder.“I’ve been in good shape and I’ve just been waiting for my chance.”
