Now he knows how we felt.

Lambert talks to them 'good old boys' Keys and Gray about time at the Villa.

That's a very good point. He could have always walked away if he wasn't happy. He sounds like a man after a new job.

Agree.

His self serving bullshit can be exposed in 2 questions.
How come Sherwood delivered nearly twice as many goals in a third as many matches without changing the squad?
How come Sherwood delivered 50% more points in a third as many matches without changing the squad?

I'm sure there are quotes from lambert somewhere where he says he was patently aware of his remit in terms of finances so why is he trying to be a revisionist here?  Also it wasn't as if he had no money to spend.  Face it mate you weren't good enough.

Bears out what the vast majority of us came to discover about him. He is a chancer.

It just didn't work. We now seem to have someone who knows what he's doing. Time to move on.

Mr. Mumbles flew to the top of a select list of loathed Villa managers purely for the shite he subjected us to with his dour humourless personality delivering dour bland football.
