Do you really need to be so aggressive?

Well FFS can you just stop going on and on about the same thing?

Please? You're driving people nuts.

People constantly blaming the managers for our problems do my nut in as well. It runs a lot deeper than that, as you well know.
Please stop being so aggressive to me as well. I don't swear at you.

I'll say it slowly.

We. All. Know. That. Lerner. Isn't. Great. But. No. Amount. Of. Complaints/Protests. Are. Going. To. Sell. The. Club. Sooner. So. We. Focus. On. The. Problems. We. Can. Have. An. Impact. On.

Therefore getting rid of a manager who has no fucking idea what he's doing and getting someone remotely competent is the priority right now.

Does this make sense or are you going to insist on making every fucking thread be about Lerner as if by will alone you can generate a buyer.

The problems do run deeper than just the manager, but I guarantee that a half decent manager would have us on more than 4 sodding points after 10 games.

From this run of games even Lambert would.

The club are losing the plot. They have issued the full match report with the headline still reading 1-0 to us? Unbelievable.

and inaccurate.

As an aside, after the game I pointed at the car in front and said to Leeg "isn't that the reg of the bloke on H&V that has his number plate as his username?". And it was him. Highlight of the day!!

I think he runs around a lot, started the season not looking fit, again another promising player but we have a few of those.

Did well against Small Heath. I know it was only Small Heath, but the entire team managed to do badly against them in the first half.

Why is Amavi on the bench when Gestede is only as good as his supply lines.

Post match interview:

"Am I going to be in the job next week? I'm not the person to ask. I feel like the club is in a hole.

"I am disappointed with the result, we didn't deserve to lose the game. We can't carry anyone because we're getting done. At the moment we are short. If people don't give everything we'll come up short.

"There's no shortage in desire but the quality is not quite there. We're not world beaters. Our league position suggests we're not and today wasn't our day."

The usual 'not my fault guv' bollocks then.

Typical blame the players and other staff bullshit.

I genuinely dislike this bloke to DOL levels.

"If people don't give everything" then "I can't question the effort". Make your mind up Teflon Tim.

For me the highlight of the day was finding a parking place in Bevington Road yards before "residents permit sign". Life can't get much better than that for a Villa fan these days!

He isn't one of Tim's signings so has been ostracised

While the likes of Lescott start week after week...

Is that misquote or a realisation?  ::)

"It's a really difficult moment right now but I believe we'll get out of it. This club will be playing Premier League football this season."

I pity the poor bloke sat next to me who came back to the seats half way through the first half with two cups of tea, only to find one had milk, water and no tea bag.

Almost sums Villa up right now.

Where were Clark and Okore - these two need to play. Sherwood said they were fit on Friday? And Veretout, where was he?
