Rock Bottoms

[cheltenhamlion]

Getting to the point at the end of last season where I was forcing myself to turn up out of duty but having to get blind drunk before the match to dull the pain of what I knew I was about to witness.

It's nice being able to actually watch games again.

I was excited when I saw this thread thinking it was going to be about WWE and favourite finishing moves.

I thought it was about Lynsey de Paul

I thought it was going to be a thread about which Villa player had the biggest arse. McCormack's gets him into the fringes of the Aston Villa Fattest Arses XI

Aspinall & Sims used to compare arses in the showers to see who had the biggest

[pipe]

The Russon list seems the most conclusive and thouough

Lambert was a ******, there's no two ways about it. And he gets rewarded for his fuckwittery with another job. Isn't football marvellous?

I thought it was about Lynsey de Paul

did she die this year or have i mixed her up with some one else.

Apparently she departed in 2012.

Here is the ghastly song, anyway.

I remember this one more fondly.

Bradford for me

being unable to beat a fourth division side over two legs is the most embarrassing result in our history

the fact lambert kept his job is the second one

This is exactly what I was going to say. It's embarrassing to lose a one off tie to a lower league team, but over two legs, and in the manner we did, Lambert should have resigned straight after, nothing over the last few years has been as bad as that.

Is the correct answer, especially towards the end of the 2nd leg when
Lamberk unleashed his revolutionary 3-0-7 formation. Just the utter buffoonery of it all should have seen his departure. Unfortunately, we had a manager without shame, with voices in his head telling him he was the victim of circumstance, plus a clueless regime who really didn't give a fuck except to instill their managing expectations policy. Truly depressing for far too long.

Villa were the 'better side' - Lambert
By Sutton Coldfield Observer  |  Posted: December 26, 2014

Aston Villa boss Paul Lambert said he thought his team were the better side during their defeat at Swansea today.

The Swans won the game thanks to Gylfi Sigurdsson's early free-kick, but Lambert felt that has side had the chances to merit at least a point in South Wales.

"I thought we were fantastic the whole game," the Scot said afterwards. "I thought we deserved to take something from the game. I thought we were excellent.

"Coming here, we did to them what they do to most teams; we looked the better side. Sometimes you come off the pitch really disappointed because you haven't played well. But today I am proud of them because of the way they have played.

"I am disappointed to lose the game but I was proud of the way they played."

Paul Lambert reflected on the 0-0 draw with Southampton and insisted: "That was a huge point."
After four straight defeats, Lambert said it was vital that Villa "stopped the bleeding."
And they did just that, with a solid, efficient performance against the Saints.
Lambert praised the players as they "stepped up the plate when questions were asked."
"I thought we were excellent in the second half. We gave as good as we got against a really good side. They are a really good football side.
"In the second half, we were excellent. Marc Albrighton and Gabby Agbonlahor were excellent. They were great.
"I am really pleased. It's been a really hard week.
"But as has documented the lads have been excellent for us.
"When you look at the way they played - and their determination - they really stepped up to the plate when questions were asked.
"I told them I was proud of them for what they did.
"We had to stop the run and get something.
"We gave a right good account of ourselves, especially in that second half. We stopped the bleeding. That was a huge point."

Stopped the bleeding?

Fuck me just reading it made my eyes bleed

and to think he has got two jobs since

[Nelly]

That same interview was just copy and pasted for all of his post match interviews, surely?

"I thought we were excellent"
"We go again"

I hate those words now!
