These needed at both ends and all along the sides on Sunday

I can see Keane walking out this week, what the fuck must he be thinking of the clueless twat in charge!!

Same here, I was thinking earlier Keane will be the first to go.

Worse than that. He will take f in charge

[supertom]

Bring in Pulis on a rolling deal. Have him save us. If he then feels we're not gonna support him, we can look again in the summer. But he knows how to work on a budget. He knows how to get blood from a stone. Stoke shouldn't still be a Prem club, but he had them firmly established.

I agree with most of what you say but not this bit. Stoke under Pulis had a bigger net spend than every club except Man City and Chelsea during his reign so he had a huge budget to work with. Plenty of money and a good ground, there's no reason at all why they shouldn't be a Premier League club.

I'd be very happy for him to come in at the expense of the current clown though.

Their budget increased year on year to be fair. Initially though he did very well to keep them up. He probably stayed a year too long in the end and ironically they looked worse after their biggest window of spending.
But I'd trust him on limited resources.

Lerner was under no pressure at all to hand Lambert a 4 yer contract - he hasn' t got the bottle to sack him.....swallow your pride Randy and get Moyes in. Cough up the compensation on Lambert's contract, otherwise it'll cost you 10 times more with relegation!!

Villa since Lambert signed his new contract:

P 5, W 0, D 0, L 5
Goals for: 0
Goals against: 13

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.

Not in a million years does Vic Crowe deserve to be in that list.

I worked with 2 chaps at GEC Midland Computer Services on Electric Avenue who stopped going to the games because of Ron Saunders' negative tactics after Vic Crowe's reign. True story. And one of them still wore a Villa scarf to work!

lambert and keane both looked uninterested - no steel . no passion from either of them

I expect it from Lambert but to see Keane so completely fed up scares me. The apathy in our club is spreading

There was a shot of Lambert frantically scribbling in his note pad and Keane looked like he was praying. Which I suppose was a more effective tactic than anything Lambert was scribbling down.

they were playing hangman

[lovejoy]

I saw reasons to he cheerful. We dominated possession and Sanchez was the best player on the pitch. They had 2 shits all game. It's a shame our chances fell to defenders.

[Loxton01]

Just seen a stat

20th in league on goals scored
20th in league for number of shots
19th in possession

It goes on it is a total joke

no they didnt

[supertom]

In defense of Sanchez for an hour I thought he was our best player as someone said earlier he looked tired and the manager did nowt!

I am sick of lambert absolutely sick of him and I think a lot of fans are too! We have to vent our fury

Agree re Sanchez

If anyone wants a scapegoat tonight look at Plastic Ron

I was actually thinking that a lot tonight. So much was made of Ron after his world cup. He's never, ever looked as good for us. Granted, we may have to cut him the benefit of doubt having worked with Lambert, but in terms of respective Villa careers, Ron isn't fit to tie Dunneys shoe-laces.
Dunney was immense for them tonight. He can't run much but he's a proper brick of a defender who can read the game. He kept our entire front line in his pocket all game. It's a shame his time here was soured by the incident with Cowans, and poor form in the early days under Houllier, but he was excellent under O Neill and likewise under McLeish until his injury.

Yep, Austin took a couple of giant dumps all over our backline.

We've gone up! Before the game we were 20th in possession.

Reasons to be hopeful...
