I can't help but feel the whole club needs to hit the reset button. The management has become so disengaged from the fans that we feel like we don't matter any more. This isn't new, it's been dragging on for as long as I can remember. A simple thing for me would be to rename the Doug Ellis to anything else (McGregor???). Get that sociopath's grubby print off our club once and for all. Then find the funds to redevelop the North stand. Freshen the place up and bring Villa Park into the 21st century instead of relying on past reputation all the time. Lift the crowd, lift the atmosphere and above all communicate with us like we're adults. None of this Paul Lambert nonsense of "I think the fans know what we're trying to do here..."

Actually there were a fair few of us stating that we were being lucky around Xmas time and that if we carried on playing like that and the luck ran out then we'd sink like a stone. Lo and behold the luck evened itself out and hey presto!

I've never been so disappointed in a manager. O'Neill was overrated, Houllier was a has-been and McLiesh was just shit and we all knew it. I had high hopes for this bloke and barring a miraculous turnaround he's fallen well short of my expectations.

It's actually a grammatical rather than spelling error. However, your right, it's bloody annoying. (see what I did there).

I can see him being out until at least the new year...Bo...lax

I bet he made a few in the pool though.

You need actual footballers in a PL midfield. Bacuna makes Reo Coker look like Messi.

You have two Chelsk homes. I wouldn't put Norwich home as brilliant - 15 minutes of it maybe.

There has been no improvement overall in since he arrived. Very disappointed. He has one window to save his job 'cos carry on like this and next xmas he'll lose the VP.

FFS Bacuna is not a PL midfielder. He's not even PL standard full stop. A few free kicks and nothing else.

rubbish

Villa Park is practically empty now.

Villa Park.... the fortress!

Mark Walters against Southampton. First time I heard my old man swear.

And them...

We could be a mid table championship by then. Lambert isnt the manager we all thought he was and he'll go down as one of the worst in recent memory along with mcleish imo. Just depends how long we have to suffer with him before hes sacked. And Billy McNeill - Seems to be a theme here.......? I'll give him until Xmas max (provided we stay up). If we haven't started playing something resembling football by then, then it's thanks but no thanks.

Can't actually see Gabby going anywhere if we go down. He's at a significant point in his career. He is a couple of seasons/one serious injury off losing his pace. After that, you have to ask if he has an awful lot else to offer?

Yeah 'walk' being the operative word. I wouldn't want him anywhere near the first team thanks. How's his 'Richard Dunne style' season long injury doing? Waste of space, waste of money, typical modern day overpaid prima donna. I'd rather have bowery in the team He ruptured his freaking achilles Doesn't appear to be getting through to some. Try this: He trod on a land mine and landed in an industrial mincer! May be out for a couple of days.

I've said 17th since November and stick by it. I fancy Fulham and Sunderland to get out of jail and Cardiff, Palace and West Brom to go down. We'll just about survive I think, but it won't be pretty.

That's the midfield sorted then.

This is the part of the interview I find interesting. I wonder how true this is? If this is the case then surely the club is up for sale. Yup and we can get someone in to run it properly but not spend any money. Because thats what we all want, just someone to run the club properly.

Over my dead body! I'm done if we change name. For me it would be like sticking my middle finger up to my dad, his dad and his dad before him. Success is nothing without heritage, else you may as well change your allegiance to Citeh. Hell, let's change the name to New-Old Trafford, shirts to red and move to Beijing. Job done. After 30+ years of neo-liberal greed is nothing sacred any longer?

No... not even for a Billion. Villa Park IS the club.

Le Tiss. Saw him at Villa Park with Soton and he was pure genius.

Meh from me. We were shocking in the 1st half. Better in the 2nd but hard to tell as they are woeful and down already as far as I can see.
