Hahaha...that's constructive. So what is the reality? Do you mean the squad is experienced and strong, the supporters are patient, the owner is wasting money for fun on Villa?
Momo, I'm going to be as respectful as possible to your comments.
Maybe I said something I shouldn't have, but the reality is that the squad is inexperienced and weak, the supporters are impatient and fickle, the owner is cheap, and the manager gets the blame.
Greatness isn't achieved over night and it hasn't been destroyed just because we have a poor squad of players. This club will always be great regardless of what division we play in, who owns us, manages us or plays for us. One thing is also certain. No manager or player will ever be too good for this great club.
Villa stopped being great when we had to rely on league one players in the premier league. I believe he is too good for Villa. Don't care if anybody disagrees.
**** all those that love a manager who has proven to be completely out of his depth at OUR GREAT CLUB!!!I love Lambert. **** all those who disagree with me.
You talk shit!!
The supporters have been very patient and not fickle! The squad was believe it or not, put together by the love of your life, not the fans or the owner. I don't expect you to understand that though!

But he did then get Brian Little in that gave us 3 great seasons and left a good squad for the next manager. He think he made a massive mistake backing Gregory. I agree he would get us so far and then never push on until we ended up standing still or going backwards.
Not just 80's - when we finished 2nd in the inaugral season - instead of investing to push us forward he held us back - sacked Ron Atkinson (who had an aging squad and it clearly needed investing in). So no problem guys with your views at all but some of us had over 25 years of him and that was more than enough!
I have to agree with John. It sounds like Ellis really messed the club up in the 80s but I was too young to experience that. In my time as a Villa fan the last 2 seasons have been the worst I have experienced. The only shining light has been Bentake.
For me I didn't experience any of that. In my experience as a villa fan I'd have to say lerner has been worse, however I recognise what Doug did in the past was awful. In terms of putting money in, I don't think that means he gets a free pass, I also think he'll get a lot of it back when he eventually sells.
**** me - I've heard it all now. Lerner may not be perfect and has made some howlers but you can't fault him he put his own money in the club unlike that other one who relegated us - dismantled the European and League Champions - called fans 'men on the terrace' and had just as much (if not more) disrespect/contempt for the fans and shareholders as Lerner.Richard was being very serious. It's a claim he's made on a few occasions.
I think he's been a shocking owner and the fact our last 3 years have seen less points than Doug's final season shows how poorly he's run the club so far.
He's gambled with our premiership status and has dragged us down to a level I've never seen us in before. I can't wait for his statement telling us he's leaving. I just hope for the sake of other sports fans out there he doesn't buy another sporting team.
Do you think though that had ellis put the extra mil on the table for juninho things may have turned out a little different for gregory. If i remember rightly we had him down villa for talks before boro?

If I'm not mistaken even Lambert has aknowledged how great a club villa is. Something I have always believed since I first entered VP back in 1980 and looked upon the famous holte end. Something my kids believe and hopefully in time grandchildren. It's a massive club just, underachieving at the moment, but hopefully not for long.

Our away supporters today are worth more than 200 million, simply priceless.
For once gentleman i totally agree with you. Best away following bar none.

We need men not boys in the middle. Something we've been crying out for. Players with fight in their bellies and a nasty streak. We've been far to lightweight for far to long.

I want success but not a chance in hell like the City way, soulless.
So you'd find it funny to see our club continue to decline so you can laugh at the fans that want success?Would be hilarious if Lerner stays and just gets some better football people in behind the scenes, just to piss on the chips of those fans who claim they want him to run it better when really they want a sugar daddy to buy so called exciting players and be the next soulless Man City.
Don't have a problem with want fans want, but they know it's the wrong way about things; it's why they hide behind they want the club run properly bollocks. When really we could be run like a corner shop and they wouldn't care as long as money is spunked on players and we're on Sky sports news yellow bar.
Nothing souless about the etihad today mate. I'd love to see us have that sort of atmosphere back down vp.

I think they were a bit tired after wednesday rather than not wanting to play for him. If new owners take over and theres major funds available I'd like to see Lambert given the opportuntity to manage the club with better players at his disposal.....
Paul if what you say is true and the players were knackered after wednesday(which i dont disagree with-to a point), why not bring in clark for baker, luna for bertrand, robinson or grealish for gabby,bowery or wiemann, what about helenius or tonev. You see where i'm going... poor decisions= poor results = poor manager.
Maybe if he had utilised all of the squad instead of persisting with virtually the same 11 week after week no matter how crap we may have been fresher and more up for it in the final few games.
For me lambert is to blame for his own downfall.

What a stupid comment!!! All I said was had he been a fan for long! and I pointed out that in MY Time I had seen worse so what's your problem??
What you after a medal for being older?! Xela used the term "worst manager he can remember".
I do - been a villa fan more than twice as long - so have seen worse (managers and players). Lambert is one in a line we have had with two chairmen who cut costs - one did at least put his on money into the club and one who just took money out.
You disagree?
Not been a fan long then??Hopefully that is the last we'll see of Lambert. Worst manager I have seen down the club.
25 years I can remember. Can't quite remember McNeil but Lambert has even been worse than Venglos
Yours was stupid and patronising to xela. Then to twist it into a doug v randy statement wasn't clever either. The original comment was about the manager not the chairman. Wrong thread.

Change the manager as often as you want, give him shit money to spend and he can't do too much. Yep mistakes made, yep last few months have been dreadful , yes not much progress on last year. But what did the useless owner we have spend? Lerner is useless and worse than Ellis in my opinion
Best manager since saunders eh richard?
-
WM, lambert says"glad it's over". He's definitely gone!
-
That sums up Weiman this season
I think you should put a bid in for the villa pilchard with your winnings. £850 reckon you might get change from that!
-
I actually think that Nathan Baker could go on next season to become a great KFC manager.
I dunno.. think he'd over do the chicken!
-
There are plenty of other leagues with promising managers in them.
If the alternatives are Pulis, Di MAtteo, Moyes and Fat sam, then YESAnyone still backing Lambert's plan?
Yes, but alot of Villafans are pointing out the managers i mentioned. Come back with some proper managers and let's talk
I'd trust the manager at my local kfc than lambert the prick!!

Final day of the season syndrome.
What?! Every match day?
-
We want our villa back, we want our villa back,we want our villa back......
-
sacked in the morning chants in first half haha
Is that from our fans or their's?
Surely not ours the best manager since Ron Saunders ffs
My thoughts excactly. Where are you momo and richard??
-
Lambert out!!!!!! rocket polisher

What a load of bollox.. baker is shit!

Maybe the batch of bulbs are faulty and not the lamp!
You are right though about expectations however I don't think anyone expected miracles, just get the basics right. Which hasn't been delivered. And lets be fair you dont need messi, ronaldo etc to get the basics right do you.
