  1. nose is still all bunged up for about 3 weeks now , with the amount of snot coming out every time I blow my nose I reckon I've lost a stone in weight and smashed Toxteth O'Grady's world record at the same time still a fair bit of phlegm in the throat , but physically I feel ok all a bit weird though
  2. I think it was only 3 or 4 weeks ago Chelsea fans wanted Poch gone .. they've just had a lucky run of penalties and playing crap teams like United , so I still think they have one more season of being a basket case club Liverpool hopefully go down the Moyes type route United took Arsenal will get to mid season and finally realise Arteta is the Spanish Sherwood that leaves us v Citeh for the title .. and they will have a 20 points deduction so we might be able to nick it by a point
  3. That would need your mum to have the app and fully operate the account I believe , if she is a UK tax payer than she would have to pay the tax on the interest earnt etc subject to her situation Long as you still have a UK bank account you could try premium bonds or ISA's with NS&I , fairly sure you can buy the bonds in a child's name .. it would be under your control until they turn 17 you wont earn interest on premium bonds , but obviously you have a chance of winning £1m ( I'm getting around a 5% return on my premium bonds , but you have a chance of also getting 0% ) but they offer a Direct Saver account and green saving bonds as well , couold be worth checking out
  4. I was looking at that the other week after they came back to beat Man U and how we also need them to beat Spurs for us … then they went and dropped 2 points to Sheff U so I discounted them but 68 is the max they can get so we just need 5 points to rule them out
  5. Surrey set 209 from 18 overs and have decided to go for it currently 79-0 going at 11.02 an over , its like a T20 game with a red ball
  6. victories over them are a kinda given , but we haven't potentially stopped them winning the title before ( least I don't think so)
  7. I used to travel to games in the 80's and 90's with the London Lions , we'd meet at Euston and get cheap rail tickets to the games I bump into a few faces at matches from time to time but no idea if the club is still going or any of them are around , I think sadly a few of the members have passed away and one of them bizarrely has started support Crystal Palace instead , but they were great days , used to meet the London Wolves club on the train and have a good old time with them
  8. after about a 30 year wait i finally got to Lord it up over my brother again who is an Arsenal fan and the reason I support Villa ( we beat them at Highbury in the first live game i ever watched )
  9. there was a tight game at VP earlier this season , where we had something like 6 mins of Fergie time to see out and I don't think we let the other team touch the ball during the whole period. I was impressed in the 96th min yesterday where Bailey broke free and probably could have played in Watkins , but why take the risk of turning the ball over and give them a sniff , he just sorta slow walked the ball into the corner and ate up another 40 seconds or so , the players are well drilled and constantly learning.
  10. like a lot of players , some opposition team seem to suit their style of play better than others (Carlos is probably still trying to figure out how to explain to his wife why he came home with another man in his pocket last night , but Carlos has struggled against other types of forward ) Doug is the same , he seems to play with such a laid back style that when it doesn't work he can look like a liability , but when it does work he is the engine room that keeps a lot of what we do ticking .. we will need him on Thursday more than Yuri i think
  11. I've never seen a keeper so confident with the ball at his feet .. he gives me a **** heart attack every time when he almost goads the attacker closing him down to but he seems to be in total control to your other posts .. i think his first season he was immense and then there was a little dip , quite a few games where he costs us points when he let in a few soft ones , this season he seems to have gone back to the season one high ,possibly even surpassed it , i guess the swagger of winning a world cup does wonders to your confidence
  12. Watching match of the day had Bailey not scored then I wonder if we’d have been given a penalty seeing as the defender went through the back of Torres and made no contact with the ball ?
  13. today we didn’t dominate in the same way as we did v City and for me The city home game was THE performance of the season , had we won it 5-0 there wouldn’t have been any complaints
  14. Still unbeaten in London this season I believe , only the draw at Wet Spam preventing us from a clean sweep of points
  15. Is that a rival gang to Ali G’s West Staines massive ?
  16. My Spurs mate last night was saying he would rather they came 5th and got Europa league as they have a chance of winning that !!
  17. How are the BBC match ratings calculated every Villa play has a rating in the high 7’s and 8’s , all the Arsenal players are averaging around 4
  18. They only had 4 shots on target the whole game , does he think every shot counts as a goal ?
  19. Who else saw 8 mins of added time and thought , still time to lose this !! first half it felt like Arsenal had 12 men v our 11 but second half we thoroughly deserved the win as they ran out of ideas Carlos with his best game in a Villa shirt and Zaniolo turned up for the second half but everyone was on it today tbf … and Emi probably gave Arsenal another reason to regret selling him with that wonder save in the first half i feel more confident now that United won’t catch us , just need to see off Spuds now
  20. Has anyone done a headcount to see if they have a player more than us on the pitch ?
  21. Being out with your mates on an all day session whilst being stone cold sober my god drunk people are hard work But on the plus side our local football team became Champions today and we saw a decent tribute band this evening
  22. Another disgusting VAR decision, what is the point of it ?
  23. Surprised William is out watching football what with Kate only being dead a few weeks
  24. Super Villans on BT sport after our game tonight I knew about them losing the European cup in a pub but never knew that Morley and Cowans broke curfew the night before the final and from the sheepish looks ended up in a brothel quality viewing , hopefully there will be a part 2 version in a few years also a great quote from Peter Withe in the show about the winning goal .. i tried to play a one-two off the post but the back of the net got in the way
