i honestly think last years end of season was down to mcnally getting all the old players introduced before kick off, the cardboard clappers, and a players revolt on the pitch where they took it upon themselves to be positive, it had nothing to do with chris hughton i am convinced of that.

Last years end of season was down to playing 2 sides that were on the beach with nothing to play for.

I''m affraid we are only now entering the chris hughton era, up until the end of last season remnants of the lambert era were still evident, all be it gradually being watered down & underminded. This was largely down to the changes in playing staff. The ethos that had driven the club forward from the depths of div 1 had been built on team spirit & hard work. As players from that era have left that spirit/work effort is diminishing, all but the likes of Russell Martin, John Ruddy, Wes Holahan have been replaced with more expensive better quality replacements & with them a new set of principles (im a big star, you do it! types who are not prepared to work for each other) Everton at home last season was the final curtain call of the lambert ethos, a goal down minutes remaining, our full backs charging forward pressing almost on the edge of the opponents penalty area. Having found an equaliser our spirit took over from any hughtonesk "what we have we hold principles" & the rest is history, in Hughtons interview after the game he said "the players just we for it"

NEVER AGAIN will you see that type of commitment unless you go to villa park
