Paul Lambert Sacked By Villa & Replaced By Sherwood

[HitchinFox]

Aston Villa Football Club has parted company this evening with manager Paul Lambert.

First-team coach Scott Marshall and goalkeeping coach Andy Marshall will continue to prepare the squad for Sunday's FA Cup tie with Leicester City at Villa Park.

The club would also like to place on record its thanks to Paul and take this opportunity to wish him every success in the future.

Inevitable.

for what? 

[Brooksy]

That's us out the cup then ffs

[One Legged Beaver]

Have we ever beaten a team the game after they sacked their manager?

[m4DD0gg]

Urgh could they have not waited till after sunday

[Saxondale]

Oh bollocks. Another shit team that's about to find form.

[Jimothy]

Marshall and Marshall sounds like a firm of solicitors.

[Harry - LCFC]

Slightly irritating timing but we're still better than them atm so I'm still optimistic about Sunday.

[kingfox]

Of what he said last night, he sounded like he had lost the dressing room.

Will probably get a foreigner.

[Dan]

Sigh. This never ever goes our way. More shit luck.

[johnny the fox]

Disgraceful...thought they would let him finish off the job..

They missed fook you at the end of the statement..

[Nalis]

Using reverse logic from last year, we'll win.

Clutching. At. Straws.

[Leicesterpool]

Good news for the villa, but bad timing for Leicester. He probably goes down in being one of Villa's worst managers, 11 hours without a goal is just unbelievable.

[ramboacdc]

who they gonna get in? there is no one you look at and go "well...they are good in a bottom 3 scrap!" they have just lobbed the first lifeboat out of the titanic!

[GaelicFox]

They will be told concentrate on league like NUFC told Carver , We will all be glued to the TV Monday evening !!!!!

[Heart-Shaped Fox]

Wonder who they'll get it now. Really want them to go down

[Julian Joachim Jr Shabadoo]

After the miracles he performed at Norwich I thought he was going to be a great fit for Villa, but it seems he wasn't great and didn't get many signings he wanted. Was bound to happen sooner or later, Villa really are appalling this season. And yes, that's coming from a Leicester fan

[Matt]

Thought he was doing a fantastic job.

[jonthefox]

Sherwood , Dyche, and ( wait for it) Sven are early contenders for the job.

[Corky]

Tim Curbishley will be a contender for each job now before ruling himself out as "the club didn't match his ambitions" or "the club wasn't the right fit" as well as being "overlooked for being English".

[ScouseFox]

one positive is that the whole gary vs nigel, match of the day vs us fiasco will be much less prominent in the half hour preview to our game on sunday now. hopefully it's just a full 29 minutes of talking about how bad villa are, then a minute to mention how boss mahrez, cambiasso and kramaric are, then we win. 

[sly1]

Sacked or not sacked that's the question up the blues.

[rico]

Burnleys forum would go into meltdown if Dyche left them for Villa
