What the **** is going on?

Its even worse than you predict (except the Nathan Baker prediction) Doug Ellis invests all his money in cryogenics and has himself frozen just like Walt Disney has done. Just when we think we are out of the woods,  circa 2040 who comes reversing down Trinity Rd with keys to the kingdom. Doug Ellis II.

Maybe it is like the script of Demolition Man and Doug and Ron Saunders will both be defrosted have another chance to sort out their 'issues'.

Lambert said at the end of last season that we needed to spend in order to avoid another season of struggle. What has Lerner done? The exact opposite. He's completely useless - a very poor judge of a given situation.

[brian green]

VF your phrase "a very poor judge of a given situation" sums it up perfectly. Worthy of the maestro of pith Darren Woolley.

[cheltenhamlion]

A Given situation? I wasn't expecting any aggravation with Shay...

FUBAR

That's all folks!

[ROBBO]

To expand Brians take on things, it coud be that having 35.000 turn out every week over the last four years to watch dire football has been part of the problem, Lerner has never really seen the supporters turn feral and maybe thats what it will take to wake him up or even more potent would be a 15.000 turn out for the first home game.

I'm afraid it'll be much, much worse than any of you fear. Nathan Baker will continue to hold down a regular starting slot at centre-back.

Nathan Baker the Poor Man's Liam Ridgewell

[Tony Erdington]

Whats that saying. " A fool and his money!" not in Randolfs case.

[Tony Erdington]

just adding to my previous, NOT IN VILLA'S CASE, but his pist millions away on other interests in his life

The worst since Bernie Gallagher. I don't wish any ill on the lad, because he's always tried his best. Got to blame the club for someone so sub standard starting every week.

He is as brave as any defender I've seen in c&b.  Alas, he is also more limited than most.

he'd benefit from having a guide player, like partially sighted runners have guides to help them

Fearless in the tackle and in the air and gives everything for the shirt but as stated above very limited

This is the first time I have truly dreaded the season coming around, I really fear for us. I think we're so far short of what is required to compete.
