Villa Get Lambert?

[Joelinton's Right Foot]

I see that Paul Lambert has offered his resignation from Norwich and it looks like he's going to Villa. Really sad to see this. Not because I like Norwich, but because he's a good manager and I was really enjoying watching Villa struggle after their celebrations at our pain. They could do well now.

Aye his record speaks for itself...I reckon, like Moyes, he's Man United might come knocking in the future (obviously if he continues his current streak and manages to nick a trophy or 2 before then)

Wish they'd gone for melty face instead!

It's most likely the cash.

Norwich were in League one a couple of seasons ago remember, so he'd probably be on tuppence.

At Villa he'd likely see his wages increase tenfold at the least.

They haven't got enough brown paper envelopes for old saggy chops.

Come to think of it they don't seem to have much of anything. Fans included.

In that case I'll pay him 25p not to go

Was waiting for the backlash from Villa fans but think they're both still at work

Phew, thank goodness for that.

Depends how much control he'll have at Villa whether its a good move. He is a cracking manager based on his record so far, but Villa have looked a mess over the last few years and he'll need some control to make it work.

Hopefully its a divorce made in heaven

 

[Hugh Briss]

Looks to me like Lambert and Holt will be heading to Villa soon enough!

Sadly I think you are right. Its not a case of 'If' but rather 'When'

Watch him get the sack next season for being midtable.

Does anyone else see a similarity between Villa and ourselves a few years back?

Came close to winning the league not too long ago.

Settled to being regulars in UEFA/Europa.

Started splashing the cash a bit (but not on top class players).

Went through a period of changing the manager every season.

Narrowly avoided relegation and fan unrest was high.

Relegated the following season?

 

[Warmir Pouchov]

I just feel when MON left, they lost their way a little. There doesn't seem to have been any sort of long term vision. This is maybe similar to us as you say, in that if you continually chop and change, particularly between different styles of play as they have, you suffer through a lack of continuity. The players lose faith and the best make for the exit. This purgatory slowly eats away at the fabric of the club until the inevitable happens.

If the worst happened I wouldn't be shedding any tears for them
