Mantis Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 If I'm not mistaken his league win ratio is 21.6%. That's **** terrible. He's going down as one of the worst Villa managers of all time, certainly in the Premier League era at least. As far as win ratio goes he's already the second worst manager in our history. If it weren't for all his beloved draws we'd definitely be in the relegation zone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
picicata Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 When you make Wigan look good it's time to walk away. When a patient man like The_Steve stops backing you it is definitely time to walk away! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CI Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Having been to Wigan yesterday, i think it's getting worse by the game Wigan were the better team and they are nailed on to drop Now we are without Keane and Bent I cannot see us scoring again let alone picking up 2 wins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mantis Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 It's very worrying when you remember that our last goal (three games ago) was scored by a player who is no longer with us and created by a player who has fallen out with the manager and is constantly benched in favor of Heskey. We didn't even win that game either, we lost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was it that bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mantis Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 With Keane gone and Bent out for a while I think we'll definitely struggle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CI Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Was it that bad. Being brutally honest, yes it was that bad. The club is in turmoil, at one point the villa fans were singing "Darren Bent what a rocket polisher" due to his lack of effort. I was gobsmacked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 the perceived lack of darren bent effort pisses me off, its mainly when he doesnt challenge headers when he's 20-30m from any of our other players why isnt he busting a gut to win a header? why cant he out jump CBs and beat them at their bread and butter and flick the ball on to other players that arent in the same half as him? get heskey in there and we'll be miles better off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voinjama Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Shame on any villa fan who criticised Darren Bent who is along with shay given the only quality player in the squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
briggaman Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Shame on any villa fan who criticised Darren Bent who is along with shay given the only quality player in the squad. He's one of our best players but he certainly isn't above criticism. He really can be a lazy bastard far too often... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mantis Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 He's not as lazy as people think he is. He's isolated most of the time. Regardless, he certainly doesn't deserve to be called a rocket polisher by his own fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CI Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 I agree the chanting was disgraceful I also think some of the verbals towards McLeish are way OTT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidlewis Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 if the away fans are anything lik some of the holte end upper they're probably drunk young chavvy little shits acting the big I am as they're in a group. Some of the stuff ive heard shouted in the past has been way over the line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dodgyknees Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Just going to say, isn't it a shame that I now get more pleasure watching neutral games on TV than I do from Villa? Watching Villa used to make me bubble, get me excited, trying to guess the scorer, look forward to being entertained. Now I just don't want to be embarrassed... When will I get my Villa back?

Mantis Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 I really hope he isn't watching this game. He'll look at what Spurs did in the first half and where they are now and think "see, this is what happens when you attack teams!". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
