I think the transfer bans, the sanctions and the change of owner have an awful lot to do with it.

When are you going to stop blaming Potter for the teams failings? Next game? Two games? End of the season? Next year? Five years time? hundred years time? Potter hasn't been anywhere near the club for the last three games, three games in which we have scored NOTHING, yet its not the players its Potter!??

I see we've now become 'free scoring' since we sacked Potter!!! He was obviously the problem!

This EXACTLY! I only hope and pray that this time they give whoever comes in TIME!! WE WILL NOT be top 6 next year, we are TOO FAR behind now - we ARE also ran's and until we can accept this we are NOT going to build anything. If we arrogantly think we are just going to fall back into the top 4 just by hiring some kind of miracle working manager then we are going to be disappointed, whoever comes in and I PRAY its somebody top notch WE MUST GIVE THEM TIME!

I don't believe I've said ANYWHERE that Lamps has failed have I!?

Since Emery took over Villa in November they've been the THIRD best team in the Premier League.

That's probably exaclty how Villa and Forest thought 30 years ago!! English football was global even before the US got on the Premier League bandwagon!

At least it was a game we bossed!! Since Villa brought in Emery they've been the THIRD best team in the Premier League - now we ain't even 'bossing' Wolves FFS!

Yeah just keep blaming Potter - thats going to work!!

Aston Villa and Nottingham Forest are 'big clubs', didn't stop them from spending time outside the top division though. NO club has a right to 'top 4' just from their name, I'm old enough to know this from personal experience.

This EXACTLY, not to mention the fact that he had the worst injury list I've ever known to contend with!

Yes but at least we knew the problem!! Now we are sh*te in EVERY aspect of the game!

He did not 'got time'!! He got 20 odd matches!!!! Fact is we are WORSE now than we were under him, not only that our performances WERE starting to improve, it was clear as day what our isssues were - nobody to score goals and defence with a mistake or two per game, now our issues are EVERY aspect of the game! Basically Potter was starting from scratch and our next man in charge has to go all the way back to 'scratch' again!! For gods sake we MUST give the next manager time!!!

Spot on!

I'm sure you can see the 'point' yourself - how long do we keep blaming Potter?? Fact is we looked an awful lot better against Everton, Villa and Liverpool than we've looked today - a LOT better, you can make of that what you will.

Yeah well Derby County were once the best team in England, doesn't give them the right to be 'top 4' every year though does it?

We created 29 chances agains Villa (who are a much better team than Wolves), how many have we created today?

Well we've tried Tuchel and Potter - both managers held in extremely high regard, if they're too 'sh*t' then I'm not sure who is going to turn us into challengers overnight!?

You need to check the table my friend - loser mentality or a simple reality check? 🙂

Yes, we had 29 shots against Villa TWENTY NINE shots and no goals, at least then we could see the problem we had.......................now we have nothing.

Give my head a wobble!!!! You think IM the problem here!!!? Its about time we started to realise a few things 1. We are NOT a top 6 club at the moment 2. We are going to need TIME to build 3. swapping managers every few months is NOT going to work!!!!! Whoever comes in next (and I hope to god its somebody half decent) we MUST GIVE THEM TIME!!!! That means NOT sacking them when we are mid-table after 15 games!

This EXACTLY! Were now getting what 'some' of us on here deserve!

The problem is many people 'expect' us to be top 4 without looking at the reality! At least under Potter we had something, we were a goalscorer and a defensive mistake away from being a pretty good team.........now we have NOTHING.

When are you going to stop blaming Potter for all our woe's?? At least under Potter we had control of the games, now were not even creating chances to miss!!!!

His name is being mentioned because according to some on here our being sh*te was ALL his fault!! We are getting what we deserve!! We SHOULDNT have sacked Tuchel, we SHOULDNT have sacked Potter and we SHOULDNT have Frank back (much as I love him)!!! Its f*ckin god awful decision making!!!! Why the hell have we not got a half decent replacement for Potter lined up!!!!! Geeeeesus!
