No fan of lambert but seeing Lerner seemed to have screwed every manager since MON, I tend to believe his version. He did a shit job but given what he was asked to do its not surprising. Yeah he took the job but there's not many managers who haven't got an inflated opinion of their abilities otherwise they wouldn't be managers, and yeah he toed the official line and didn't complain at the time but so did all the rest, and so is Garde, for now. You can have a go at him for keeping quiet when employed by us but i can't see the problem with him speaking out now. As a shite manager he's obviously trying to justify his failure but even if he'd been half competant he'd never have done owt with that Villa set-up - one of the reasons I'm not that bothered about Garde limping on as lame-duck manager is because the reincarnation of ron saunders couldn't build a successful team with these cowboys at the helm
The tried to resign bit is misleading, what he wanted was to walk away fully paid up and Lerner said no, he could have walked as no one can stop you but he would have left with no pay upAgain it's all about money not integrity

I'd like to propose that as a massive pisstake aimed at the American fuckwitted cowboys running our club, that the end of season fancy dress should be held at the last home game and every Villa fan come dressed up as a cowboy. Yeeeha!
