Did you notice there is no strips on the shirt, and a Nike shade of Claret?

I have a good feeling about the next shirt..

I thought "Libor has good feet for a big man"?

But really, that idea of #9 Kozák, Tekkers as a number 10 with a winger is an intriguing option. 

The Marcon kits are simply made for maximum profit, plastic fantastic, ultra safe designs. Boring?

Is it not time we opened the door to a new era, moving on a little...

Maybe to a good value; well made shirt that doesn't look like an after thought in similar colours.

That said, I don't have the design answer, but hopefully it involves Claret, Blue and Under Armour. 

I really thought we had green shoots today, they didn't turn into shots, but the attacks seemed more decisive.

Lets face it, he has to persuade our players; "the Lambert Losers" into believing that they can still play football as a team, then, that they can win again.

So I genuinely believe The Bells are Ringing, just a little further in the distance...

Do people think that Sid could do the job? or is it just the Ex Player rose coloured glasses?

What about Glenn Hoddle, didn't work at Wolves, but that was ages ago.

In all reality, who is better than Lambert that you would risk our Premiership place on?

is Harry's Knee better yet?

Sorry Paul, but its time to go.

We need some fresh ideas and motivation, something you no longer bring to the team.

Glenn Hoddle is my realistic pick as the replacement, now. 

Andre Villas-Boas would be my long term target.

Putting on my seat belt and crash helmet.

Mario Balotelli?

Teckers and Mario front two.

when need something massive and new... and he would have a point to prove!

Kieran, welcome to Villa. 

I'm sure you will be great for us!

In the last year of his contract... Next season he will be great just before going for Free... 

For Sale - "Proud History, Fickle Future"  

sne = I got in my car, the Mrs. had left one of those Positive Thinking CDs playing.

The guy that tricked my Mrs. to pay >$20 of my money to buy his CD, told me "You get what you look for"...

Maybe we can get him to buy us?

We aren't That bad, and Lambert isn't That bad...  Its easy to be negative, and sadly that is contagious!

I'm from the Left Side, so I'll Keep the Lion's Flag flying high. 

 

The Sun says Jack Rodwell is linked with 9 clubs, do you think we could possibly get him at Villa, on loan maybe?

Don't forget he was a Defensive Midfielder to begin with at Everton...

 

I have a dark horse feeling about us next season, all the kids are a year older and a season more experienced. 

 

Up the Villa!

I fear that horse is more likely to be put down looking at the team Lambert will be limping to the barn with

Up the Villa!

In the future, I believe we will see three men at the back, when we are back at full strength, 

                      Guzan

            Vlaar, Okore, Clark

Lowton      Delph, Westwood     Moon

        New Player (Wide/AM Role)

            Teckers, Gabby

Ideally we would add Lescott, Barry and De Bruyn, 

I want to talk about the match today, there is nothing, Nothing productive to mention!

Lescott is fantasy, but very welcome...

I've said for ages, but our midfield is still Screaming for Gareth Barry.

We are completely lacking and creativity in the middle of the park. I think Lambert's the right man, but today it was clear we needed to motivate the individual players, that's the Managers job... 

The commentator mentioned Darren Bent... how can we get him back in a Villa Shirt?

Delph, I have a feeling we will be loosing him very soon... 

Ok, far from the perfect answer.
But considering the window is closed, he is a know quantity.
I believe Nig could see at his last big chance, having a massive part to in the squad.

This is way to fishy...

It was a minor groin strain that he played with at Euros, but it has kept him out all season.

We really really need him on the park!

Is it true that Faulkner said.

"Randy does business honorably. He's not putting in his money, so why should the fans?

Season tickets holders can have a 50% refund for all remaining matches.

Basically everything is now what we'll Quiters half price, so tickets, shirts all things Villa.

The Discount doen't include the price of Beer and Pies,"

Can't remember where I got the alleged quote from...

Can anyone confirm this honorable admission of failure?

Adults playing the game with effort.

Transfers... Not going to happen...

Lets face it, Lerner is not interested anymore, no one will pay him the money he has put in...

But unlike us, rather than admit defeat and sell at a loss, he will put a dust cover over Villa Park and forget about us.

Like those old Rolls Royce's they find in barns.

Don't forget, he grew up with a silver spoon in his mouth, money doesn't matter to those people like it does too us!

Unless something massive changes we are in MASSIVE trouble.

Does anyone have Prince William's phone number? He can either play defensive midfield or buy the club?

Why does everyone go on about how much he gets paid?

Does a player do a job on the park, that's all that matters...

His reaction at the final whistle tells me he does care.

I believe Ireland should be a regular in the team, with Bannan as his back up.

I was saying something similar the other day in another thread, but how on earth can anyone possibly describe Given & Bent as dead wood? Are you nuts....?

I am 100% comfortable seeing either on the park.

Aaron Ramsey? Always on the bench for Arsenal

How on earth can Lerner not see himself that we need a ball winner.

If he drops $10m on a big guy (and we need a back up) it would 100% keep us up.

So how much would that be worth?

Fingers crossed Lambert is waiting till the end of the window to get better prices, but does that not bring the new player's hunger & loyalty into question?

Our first new signing!

Looked really good today, perhaps he got caught on the ball a fair bit. But he was running at players with purpose.

We both Attacked and defended with purpose as a team today for that matter.

It just the gaping hole in the middle of the park that is killing us.

When Delph went off we lost it completely.

Well cuffed N'Zog did the biz, he will rip Bradford to bits!

This is a fascinating thread,

in my eyes Bannan and Gabby changed us completely against Southampton.

Love or hate him, we need a Bannan/ Ireland type on the park at all times.

Someone that can at any point change the game. (N'Zogbia avoids eye contact).

We need to use the middle of the pitch on the ground as well, when ever we do we look both solid, passing with conviction so seem to build momentum, but then go back to the wings. You don't win big boy fights with dead arms, we need to smack them.

Bent's play is a direct reflection of the supply he is given as he thrives in decisive passing that we had when we had men in the shirts. Passing the ball so his back to goal is to go offroading in a Lotus. That's not Bents fault, it the passer.

Surely the managers job is to create a playing style that fits the team's individuals, it then evolves over years into what the manager builds it into.

This is not the time to blood youth, this is time to just stay up and try again next season.

Sorry Mr. Lambert, this current problem all rests on your shoulders...

Right now, this group is not good enough for the Premier, they will be one day.

As long as he doesn't ruin them first.

Chelsea showed everyone our weaknesses, now everyone can pick us apart.

I have a horrid feeling Albion could give the kids a spanking as well.
