He's got nothing to work with.

The squad clearly consists largely of mercenary c***s who don't give too much of a shit.

I'm not sure he gives a stuff either.  Telling players they're all shit on a weekly basis isn't going to make them try harder.  They're shit, he's shit.  A perfect storm of shitness.

He could do a Lambert and keep saying "we were excellent". No thanks.

If he had anything about him he'd resign. It would at least take away the spotlight from him and shine it on the person responsible for this clusterfuck, and that's Randy Lerner.

Just posted on the post match thread. Could we actually be any worse by not having a manager for the remainder of the season. Surely Garde's position is untenable?

If Lerner is responsible for the cluster fuck, why would Garde resign?

Rather like Keane and Wilkins before them Remi's assistants have had absolutely no effect on the players whatsoever.

Why should Garde take the flack that should be aimed at Lerner? I feel sorry for him even though he's contributed feck all to the club in his short time here.
He should resign with a bit of dignity and walk away from this joke of a club.

Remi's position is untenable. He should walk now, with his head held high, from this poisonous clusterfuck. He remains the only, solitary intelligent, dignified and honest voice I've heard emanating from Villa Park in the whole of the last five years, maybe more. But this rotten club is soiling him and his reputation. He doesn't deserve it. Go, let us appoint a raging anus like Nigel Pearson and let us fulfil our own prophecy of doom.

This is it.

This club is disintegrating, it has just been left to crumble to pieces by that idiot rich kid who got bored of his new toy faster than anyone predicted.

He spoke when he arrived of being a custodian of the club and understanding what that meant. Well, as a "custodian", he has been absolutely disastrous. If he hasn't been making idiotic decisions himself, he's been appointing other idiots to make them for him.

Even Man City's mega rich owners realised that pumping money in was only half of it, so they went and got most of Barcelona's leadership. Lerner went four years leaving it all to the manager, then appointed someone who managed a call centre for him, then someone whose one achievement in the game was doing a shirt deal.

Garde getting utterly fucking stitched up is just one sign of how insane things have been.

This is not going to get any better until Lerner sells up and can stop even pretending to give a fuck any more.

The lack of rage and anger at what Randy Lerner has done will forever amaze me. He's made humiliation a routine fact of our existence, and this juggernaut of horror with no brakes will not magically slow down and turn itself around in the Championship. Lerner is the problem, he's always been the problem, and he will continue to be the problem when every tin-pot mob of scrotes in the Championship is queuing up to give us a pasting.

yep,  It would almost be worth the experiment to cancel any training or input from the manager and see if it was possible to be worse than a Garde trained team

When the squad only has rubbish players in it we're going to be rubbish.

I agree, but he's offered nothing though, not even the 'new manager lift' that even some of the shittest out there can manage for a few weeks. I think there's a bit of the emperor's new clothes about him. I keep hearing stuff about him being a fine manager and then I look at the results.
He's been appalling. Even Sherwood managed to lift us for a few weeks and kept us up.
Wrong choice, wrong manager.

That was before the last 2 disastrous transfer windows. Sherwood got 1 league win with the current players.

Sherwood kept us up last season which I'll always be grateful for. It was always going to end in tears with Lerner in charge but at least he could point to those first few weeks of his reign. What can Garde point to? He's done absolutely nothing.

You can't blame Garde for the mess he inherited or that he has perpetuated, he has not been backed to enable him to make changes.
Frankly I don't care who manages us next season, but I do not want the overpaid mercenaries at our club, go with youth down to Div2 for all I care, I just want the players to try.

Seems to me that Garde has given up. I think he will be gone when we a finally relegated. God knows why he took the job?
