Lambert gone

[aj2k77]

I actually feel sorry for him now he's gone - he clearly wasn't up to the task and was floundering.  However it is a positive step and the club need to act fast and wisely to stop relegation.

Over to you Randy and Tom.

I don't have any sympathy for him, with his record and it getting worse by the week he should have resigned.

[Mister E]

So, the KEY challenge - does the administration actually have a clue what to do now?

[Clampy]

I'm surprised and I'm not. It's for the best anyway. It was getting beyond a joke.

'Aston Villa confirms tonight that 5 months after the ridiculous decision to give him a new four year contract, Paul Lambert becomes the latest member of the 'walk away from villa with £5m in your sky rocket' club.

[Tuscans]

More importantly now, Lerner has to appoint the right man for the first time in his Aston Villa ownership.

Something I'm still worried about....please not Warnock.

My hunch is yes

[Risso]

Get the fuck in!

This is where we're supposed to show a degree of magnanimity and wish him all the best for the future I suppose.

But balls to that, good riddance!

[Flamingo Lane]

I'm sure no-one will be disappointed by this news, but my word, what a terrible way to run a football club.

[Villa Lew]

Was watching the Chelsea v Everton match, when I heard the news. Totally lost interest in the match now. FANTASTIC NEWS.  Should add a few thousand to the gate on Sunday. Laudrup for me.

I'm very surprised, really didn't think it would be until after Leicester. Will be interesting to see what happens next. No January window, club in bottom three and an owner who wants to sell...who would want the job? Such reputational risk to your career of you had a relegation on your CV.

[N'Rexy]

Lets get Bielsa in. Millions of goals and loads of fun. Would be just what we need. We'd only need to pay Marseille a million or so.

[KRS]

HALLEFUCKINLUJAH!!! DING DONG THE INCOMPETENT ONE IS GONE!!!

Its very weird celebrating a sacking as if we've just scored 3 goals in 5 minutes.

Today is a good day!!!

Almost certain we have no-one lined up considering the board supported a bid for Rickie Lambert only a couple of weeks ago.

Bilic, Laudrup, Tuchel etc all seem to be ruling out a new gig until the summer.

Tiger Tim might have a free run to the job

[edgysatsuma89]

The relief i feel at this moment is incredible and it's not just because I'm taking a dump.

Strap yourselves in, it's going to be a rough ride till the seasons end.
