Stevo985 Posted February 11, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted February 11, 2015 **** it. Get Redknapp in. It is never that time. I'd honestly prefer Colin rocket polisher to Redknapp. Appointing Redknapp would be me putting my support of Villa on hold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lapal_fan Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 I think I am envious of those that have only just realised that Lambert is not right for AVFC and now want him gone. Having seen this coming since before half way through his first season I just watch games for the sake of it not because I have any belief that we are any good and will do well. Oh the curse of being able to see the wood for the trees. I sometimes wish I just had blind faith like some. As obvious as it is that Lambert needs to go now, it's not only his fault - but you can't see that as much as you can see Lamberts doing a poor job. It's getting a little embarrassing how much you're trying to rub peoples noses in it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sometimes wish I just had blind faith like some.Nailing your colours to the mast early on, before giving someone a fair crack of the whip is nothing to be proud of. Quite the opposite actually. And it wasn't blind faith at all. You honestly think those like me who weren't on his back from early on couldn't see the problems at the club? And if you think getting rid of Lambert is getting rid of the main problem then your tree spotting abilities mightn't be all that you think they are. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samjp26 Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 We need unity amongst the fans, we're genuinely the only ones that give a toss about the club for what it is now - not money, not even 'success'. We need goals, we need points, and as much as Lambert needs to go now it is highly likely that he will stay. We need to get behind the team and support OUR club, not Paul Lambert and not Randy Lerner, but the club, because it will still be our club when they're long gone.

With only limited funds - there was always a reasonable chance that Lambert would fail. I will admit though I never thought he would be this bad. I don't think prolonging the agony is in anyones interest - However Lambert won't walk on a big contract - and those above him seem pretty spineles..........ergo the demise....

Vive_La_Villa Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 Are there any fans interested in a Villa Park boycott? maybe for the FA cup game. A poll would be good if possible. Edit: Maybe even a mass protest outside the ground during the game. Or is that just sad? My thinking is get the media attention as much as possible. Lerner will have to act then.

I used to think Lerner was the main problem, I don't now. He's still a major problem but he's not the reason we're so awful and have been for well over a half a season. And I think anyone who thought things would be different over the last few months were basing it on blind faith because there was absolutely nothing to suggest it was going to get better.

In fairness fans have been excellent all season. sure at times the stadium can be pretty quiet but can you blame them with the current dross served up? The bournemouth game was a great example, when Gil scored that goal the stadium was really alive. The fans will always cheer on the team but it's got to the stage where perhaps the players take for that granted too and get away with it along with the manager.

Agreed - I was really excited when he joined - but he hasn't done it. There again I confess to being fickle, if a manager wins games I like him, if he doesn't i wont Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
