I know things were super grim under Lambert, but I still don't understand how anyone can possibly have wanted Allardyce inWatching the match today, seeing that horrific Allardyce - Nolan axis of grimness, that horrible, horrible industrial football, how fucking horrible - that "stand in front of the keeper and harass him" tactic that Nolan got pulled up for is something Allardyce has had his teams do for years now, it isn't just something that happened today.If he hasn't got the option of the long ball at Carroll to knock down for Nolan, West Ham haven't got a fucking clue.God knows Villa have disappointed and alienated me plenty in my lifetime, but nothing like as much as they would if we'd ever appointed that absolute fucking horrible relic as our manager.See also Tony Pulis.We should be well above that sort of shit.
Out of the frying pan, and into the fucking fire, eh? Getting a bit warm, now,Burn, baby, burn!Sherwood inferno!It's getting hot in here,So take off your gilet!I amGetting so hotI wanna take Tim's clothes off!
I like the idea of a banner thanking Sherwood for bringing the pride back to the pride of the midlands.

However, I did watch West ham a few times earlier in the season and they were really attractive to watch with their two front men (not carroll) and Downing playing really well. However, since it became clear Allardyce wouldn't be retained at the end of the season he has reverted to type and their form has suffered. Nolan doesnt play regularly for them and yesterday proved why.Have to say back in Feb, I would have taken anyone to get rid of Lambert
I haven't been this happy watching the Villa for years, which is a remarkable turnaround in a few weeks.

And also his team around him, they've performed a miracle to bring this club back to life after Lambert had virtually strangled it to death.

Actually enjoying it, I mean.I've started watching MOTD and reading sports supplements again, too.
