Oldvilla what manager has been worse none and he has still had 20 mill a season he is a joke what tactics does he use from what I see none I've had more bad weekends wit him as manager than any1 else I will still of course support my team I couldn't stop if I wanted but a total clear out is needed manager included
I'm not personally a huge fan of Lambert but I do feel a little sorry for him. I think people are forgetting how bad it was under McLeish. And yes he's had 20 million pounds to spend but a lot of that money is currently injured, okore, kozak and obviously benteke for example which adds upto more than half of the wage bill. Also Norwich have had double that amount and look where they are at the moment. As I say not a huge fan but you have to give him this. So let's forget about him because he is not going to be sacked even if we go down, and roar the team on, on Saturday!
Totally agree with backing the team on Saturday. Even though many of us are unhappy, we need a united front. I also do feel sorry for Lambert as he was always going to be the fall guy if the punt on cheaper younger players did not work out. It is the team who are just not good enough especially with the injuries. Yes it is ‘His team’ as he has spent £40 mil over the last two years but once you take out 7 and 6 ish mil for Tekkers and Kozak it shows on average we only spent less than 1-2 mil on each player brought in. Take out Vlaar and Okore at around 4 mil each, then the average spend each player is even less. So my point is we can't expect top 10 above finish by spending so little on a lack of quality. In some ways it could be viewed that Lambert is a genius (im laughing as I type this too) as with the players we currently have that we are not in the bottom three at the moment. This minimum spend forced upon by Learner is down to having his fingers burned but remember he is ultimately a business man and not a ‘real’ fan. So we need big investment but finding a multi-billionaire who like Abramovich or Mansour who seem to not really care about money as they have so much of it, will be hard as most rich people are rich for a reason. Why do you think so many lotto winners have almost nothing so quickly, as they waste it. Also any new owner will want a payback someday regardless of what they say. It has to be up to the fans to buy the tickets, shirts etc… to put the cash in. Otherwise lower divisions, rubbish football is the future unless that multi-billionaire buys in.
PL has to be sacked I don't think he understands the club if he did he would not have bought the worst villa team I have seen since tommy Cumming was manager he is suited to a small club 1 good buy the rest are rubbish FACT but agree we all get behind the team saturday
Sorry lads but could you guys finish with a name or something so we know who is making a point.

Well stated Villadave. Lots of posters drift in and out of the site and make the odd comment. Far worse teams than those mentioned have worn the shirt and failed miserably.
