Aston Villa Review: Episode 150 - Remi Garde on the brink as Villa inaugurate the Football Board

Aston Villa's defeat to Swansea City in the Premier League on Saturday took a familiar form but there's plenty going on at our listless club away from the weekly abomination on the field of play. Since Chris and Steve last sat down to talk about the overall direction of the club there have been several changes to get our teeth into.

The club's board now includes Mervyn King, David Bernstein and one General Charles C. Krulak, and a recent announcement introduced the Football board. Bernstein and King's involvement there will be bolstered by former Villa player and manager Brian Little as well as a new Head of Football Operations. Deckchairs on the Titanic, or a new dawn? Take your pick.

    • Football is the most played sport by junior boys in Australia and the girls are closing the gap on netball every year.
    • Gotta say I'm not sure what's the point of investing in the Australian side. Small population, talent spread our among ridiculous amount of competitive sports over there, AFL is king, rugby, cricket, swimming etc. There hasn't been much Australian talent of note lately (hopefully we got the best one lol). Not sure there's much profits to be made on Aussie soccer either but could be well wrong.  The MLS franchise seemed to have made more sense in all aspects.
    • To a degree it delayed the restart, as Ollie didn't have a ball to take the penalty, then got further delayed when funnily enough the ball turned up from the crowd just as he was about to start his run up.
    • Wordle 1,036 3/6 ⬜🟨⬜⬜⬜ ⬜⬜🟨🟨🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
    • Coen esque noir farce. Would advise just going in knowing nothing other than if you're a fan of Fargo you'll more than likely enjoy it rather than watching the trailer which spoils a bit of the plot.
    • Doesn't a card have to be physically shown to a player and their name written down? This goblin of a ref did neither. He took the card out, then Luiz came over before he could flash it, then he told him to **** off and then put the card away again. How exactly is that booking someone? I honestly think these **** modern referees are touched in the head. They act like shell-shocked war vets sometimes, they lose the rag under seemingly innocuous circumstances half of the time and expose themselves as clearly not understanding the rules of the game the other half. **** nuts.
    • Premature. Chelsea, Newcastle and Man Utd can still catch us if they win every game - we could still be in the conference league again
    • Israeli airforce back at it tonight, hitting Iran backed militant groups in Iraq. They did a lot of work against the Iranian air defence network last night, which is exactly what you’d do at the beginning of a longer air campaign. They have an air corridor through Syria and Iraq which can be used to fly close up to Iran and launch stand off munitions, minimizing risk to IAF aircraft. Iran can’t do a thing to prevent this, so their only option to respond is further direct missile and drone  attacks from Iran, activating Hezbollah rocket forces in Lebanon, or terrorist attacks in third locations against Israeli civilians. None of that can secure Iranian skies from further strikes, so it’s really a question of how much damage Israel now intends to inflict on the Mullah’s regime, it’s military and proxy forces, and Iranian CNI. 
    • Scrap the league cup, and put the Conference League place to the League position. Have the FA Cup 3rd Round in October or early November to enable the competition to be spread evenly over the season. Will stop the congestion caused by League Cup semis and the final as well.
    • Have a feeling he will score a couple more goals before the season ends. His form has gone to shite and he looks ineffective and weak but we've all seen how he started the season, I think he may end the season in the same manner.
