I prefer to use the evidence of my own eyes and ears and this only backs up what she is saying, stewards and police jumping on fans in the lower Doug Ellis whose only 'crime' was to spontaneously start a we want Lerner out chant, one of the girls at work who isn't a Villa fan does the betting in the Trinity and she has told me the fans are'nt happy about self service for food, one of the customers I speak to is the printer who did a lot of work for the Villa including all the mosaic panels we held up at Wembley and his opinion now is terrible of the state of the club.I did leave after the 5th goal on Sunday and walking down Witton Lane glanced inside the Doug Ellis and fancied another quick look , only to be greeted by a surly steward whose attitude a member of Hitler's SS would have been proud of.Fair play to that lady.Absolutely agree. A true Villa fan of many years according to a friend of mine who wouldn't of done this lightly I hope she has another job lined up following her resignation It isn't her job. She does a couple of hours on matchday.

Yes, if only the club would fill us in on the facts but unfortunately they've declined to comment

You're right of course but by "declining to comment " gives the impression there is nothing to defend and just adds to the ire of the fans as it just fuels the opinion that they really don't care what we think So a bit like the transfer window they chose to do nothing.
Just get a Sharpie and right Lerner out on a tennis ball and throw it into the pitch as the players come out of the tunnel, a few thousand of those for the stewards to pick up and throw out instead of the fans.
Aren't we better off doing something positive, like holding up 'For Sale' boards? You never know there may be an insane billionaire watching...
