I give it until about Thursday before the posts start dribbling in about Lambert never having any money to spend and it is all down to MON's profligacy and he has done a reasonable job keeping us up the last two seasons and what terrible luck he has had with injuries and how brilliant he was at Norwich.There is not a single club in the football league who would keep Lambert as manager. We not only keep him we give him a four year contract for services rendered. He is the worst manager I have ever seen in charge of Villa and that includes Vic Crowe, Graham Turner, Billy McNeill, Josef Venglos and Alex McLeish.
lambert and keane both looked uninterested - no steel . no passion from either of them

Is there a chance that Lambert's ridiculous contract is the same?

When you think Doug fired BFR the same year we won a trophy - admittedly the league form had been decidedly average over his last 42 games but nevertheless we had won a trophy and finished 2nd two years earlier - it makes you wonder how long Doug would have put up with all this? I think Lambert would have gone at the end of his first season.
We are a terrible terrible team, and will go down. But you know what, we need to. Because I can't deal with this anymore. I've had enough. Tuesday nights at Blackburn sounds depressing, but at least we might win the odd game.

back to 4-4-2 for me, this 4-3-3 clearly isn't working.
