What a pointless poll 5 minutes after a defeat.

The reading of the thread isn't compulsory; I believe I gave fair warning about what was contained within from the title.

You must be fucking furious. You were furious under MON when we looked OK and finishing 6th. Fuck knows how you haven't topped yourself the last few years.

Keep. Complete lack of patience with a young coach and a new team being shown.

ffs he isnt YOUNG

Okay, I'll reword it so not to upset you. Inexperienced, learning. Better?

It isn't just the total failure to deliver, it is the vast, stinking sea of bullshit that he surrounds himself in.

He talks such self-preservational bullshit that he makes the shit results even more unpalatable.

He's a proper bullshit merchant, and he's going to take us down.

I'd prefer it if we were where we were mostly because of the players being clowns, but we're not, we are where we are because the manager hasn't got a fucking clue.

Couldnt have put it better myself

Why can't we just get MON back. Closure and all that all round I'd say.

O'Neill left when the bank notes started to dry up.  He's hardly likely to come back to peanuts.

Not really. If he had been a decent manager in waiting he would have managed in the lower leagues and gradually managed his way up the leagues building on some success. He had 6 months of bullshit Spurs and now has the same here. He is out of his depth. Decent player, crap manager. The total bull he spouts makes him totally deluded whne it all goes wrong

'Finding' Harry Kane doesnt count.

He gor Adeybayor and then Beneteke playing, an fair play to him for that, but has nothing else in his locker. Tonights BBC interview was total and utter bull. Talking about survival and building for next season.

You don't like football, you enjoy Sky football.

I don't know what that means.

Sky football is all about being in the best league in the world ever no matter how (Allardyce).

I'd rather see my team attack and win games. I'm fully aware Villa haven't done this for a long time, but at least TS looked like he might be willing to do it.

I'm past caring just watching shit for the sake of it. Honestly, I'd rather watch us play attacking football every game and go down.

Winning with 10 defenders in the PL or playing to win in the Championship? I'd rather trying to win. Maybe I'd my changed my mind if we were there, but after the last however many years of going down Villa Park watching shit, I'm bored and past caring about just being there in the top division. It's boring.

This goes far deeper than Sherwood.  The malaise at this club over the last 5 years has been nothing short of scandalous.  Managers probably come in think yeh this is a cushy number decent salary for a year or two.  I only have to get them to 17th and if we look like we are going to go I'll get a decent payoff so what does it matter.  The people at the top need to start to look like they give a fcuk then we might have some direction and ambition under a manager who can embrace that.

I agree to a certain extent. But these are Sherwood players. Our net spend is virtually nil but he has been given the delph and beneteke money and we just seem absolutely hopeless again.

Lerner isnt to blame for the last 10 games in my view. The likes of Wilkins arriving is just gutless and boringly predictable.

I'm curious to what fans expectations were/ are?

Let's say the form continues into mid November, the axe is wielded, does the recruitment policy since Ellis left fill you with any confidence at all? They have all been terrible appointments, arguably as poor as Sunderlands.

I expected a more positive and attacking style of play than we have now, perhaps a siege mentality. We try and win or we lose whilst going all out to get the win.

It certainly isn't that at the moment.

what pisses me off is Sherwoods comments about avoiding relegation this season, as someone else pointed out, he said at the end of last season we would not be in this position again. Sadly I can see us only going one way under him at the moment, and that's down.

Get rid and get an experienced head in (Moyes/Allardyce) until the end of the season the see what happens in the summer.
