One for @OutByEaster? to raise at the next AGM

I’ve raised this with the club, unsurprisingly it’s been ignored and I’ve not had the courtesy of a reply.

My advice would be to avoid ordering anything at all costs. The sizing on most items is way off, some of the products quality leaves a lot to be desired, and to rub salt in the wounds you have to pay to return faulty ill fitting tat.

Then there is the long wait to have the refund back in your account. 
 

It’s bizarre when the likes of ASOS etc are far more proficient. The club need to look at improving the online shopping experience.

Just liquidate the turds. They wouldn't be missed outside of Small Heath.

My initial thought was that it was a penalty, i thought he was clipped by JJ. What really pissed me off was his instinctive appeal, arms in the air asking for a pen.

He got a fair amount of abuse from the lower tier throughout the game and rightly so.

So Clinton Morrison has been interviewed, and berated Villa fans for booing Grealish after everything he's done for us, insisting there is 'no loyalty in football'. After today! When Mr VTID dived to get a pen against us.

They can both get to f***.

 

Just back from the game so not seen the Morrison quote until now. Morrison is a D list ex professional with minimal IQ. 
 

I’m looking forward to this game, the walk back to Piccadilly Station might be fun though!!

Having browsed the Bluemoon forum I can confirm they are now competing with Liverpool for the title of Victim FC.

It’s all a conspiracy fuelled by ManUre and Liverpool apparently.

Time for City's cash money to bully another organisation

Sadly that will inevitably be the outcome. They can afford better lawyers than the PL, FA combined.

The person asking for us to recall a player from their loan, for Christian Purslow to be directly asked about this, and calling our club "a **** joke"... is calling me the dramatic one?  

Yes I think pot, kettle and black springs to mind

All charges against Greenwood have been dropped by the CPS. Will they now reintegrate him into the squad?

Why are people angry?

This season is a bonus. Clearly the plan is let Emery bed in his system and work on getting players we really want in the summer. There’s no point signing people for the fun of it. 
 

We’re not realistically going to get into Europe this season and we’re already safe. Let Emery work with the squad and get his system perfected and then we can spend money far more wisely in the summer. 

Nail on head

Not sure why people are saying we will pay over the odds in January, those days have gone, its just excuses. Have you not seen the bargains other teams have signed, Trossard being one.

We have missed out, weather this down to the board or Emery, theres no excuses. I also wouldn't be so sure we are gonna blow 50-100 mill in the summer either.

Who are these bargains you refer to? Not doubting Trossard is quality but eve if we were in for him do you think he’d have chosen us over Arsenal?

I think it would be far weirder for his dad to refuse to wear the shirt of the team his son plays for because of his allegiance to Villa. 

He's a grown up ffs

My lad played for Walsall but I never wore their shirt

Just to post a different perspective on this topic.

I attend every away game with my 2 sons, have done since they were both very young so I guess we haven't missed an away game for 15+ years. Aside from the financial implications it has impacted on many aspects of my life - relationships, career etc. It affected my marriage, I’ve missed family occasions and both my bank balance and sanity have taken a battering. I think there’s about 1200 or so of us that have 100% attendance over the last couple of seasons.

I have every sympathy for fans that can't get to away games because of ticket availability. When i hear of fans buying tickets for games they have no intention of attending so that they maintain 100% booking history it irritates me no end.

Do the club still have a ballot for STH’s? If so maybe they could increase the allowance for games other than Brentford and Bournemouth where the allocation is pathetically small. It’s one way of opening up the criteria to more STH’s.

Some people on here . He’s clearly better than what we have in mings and konsa. I can’t say if he’s better than Carlos because he hasn’t played enough games to make that assessment.

Wages are a concern for me and I can’t imagine this is a permanent signing. It’ll be on loan with united paying a large portion of his wage for maybe 6 months while maguire gets to put himself in the shop window for the summer. How can we lose if that’s the case?

People need to get a grip of themselves.

Is he? He’s certainly a lot slower than Mings and Konsa.

Not sure why Ming's keeps getting mentioned as " needing " to be shifted.

Least of our priorities and one of our best players and characters imo

Spot on JV.

I just don't understand the amount of criticism he gets.

Luckily you can usually sit on your own.  I have developed a skill of celebrating goals without showing it.

I tend to go on my own to the Sty.  To be honest my mate, who I go to Villa with, won't go there.  

It’s an old school thing to do, previous generations have been known to alternate between VP and the Sty to catch a live game.

I’m with your mate on this - I wouldn’t give them the steam off my piss let alone some hard earned money.

Havent seen that befoee but Yes that signjng doesnt seen ro be his own, also the fact he is gettjng zero game time would support that.

I do think the big signings like romaro richarlison are conte signings

There was a noticeable and audible ironic cheer from the Spuds fans when he came on which would suggest he wasn’t a Conte signing.

None of this is true I don't think.

 

ManU fans would not want their in decent form winger to be behind a man who has really never played well at the highest level. 

 

Where does Grealish start for France? The only argument you could make is Dembele but when you're a counter attacking team with a Giroud up front why would you want a player of Grealish's profile?

 

He isn't quick and isn't a goal threat. He'd only make sense if France played with Mbappe up front. But they don't.

This topic isn’t about Kalvin Phillips.

You must’ve missed JG’s man of the match awards for England then?

I don’t care what your thoughts are on him, he should be starting for England, similar to the role Griezmann plays for France.

I honestly think we’d have won a tournament by now with a manager that played him more.

The JG that played for us yes I agree. He was a maverick that could change a game in an instant.

It’s a shame that Pep has turned him into a robot and coached that free spirit out of him.
