  1. So Zog is suddenly not the most terrible player in villas history?

    Shocker ;)

    Where exactly did anyone even say he was the worst player in Villa history?

    Another makouns_grin hyperbole crap against fans.

    Quote me exactly please. People complained about his shit peformances, because they were SHIT, as picked on by respected papers like The Times, The Guardian who called him a flop.

    So, yeah, quote exactly before exaggerating shit like that again, or is it just a habit of yours?

  2. You can give a big club a run for their money in games without having big names. Look at Norwich at Old Trafford, or Swansea at home against Manure as well. These are teams who haven't got the best squads in terms of value, but still take the game to the opposition. Under McLeish we roll over.

    How long have those respective managers been at those clubs?

    What has that got to do with it? Rodgers has been there since 2010 and Lambert has been there since 2009.

    When Rodgers came in he took over a crap Swansea had and had them playing attacking football and finished them in 8th, a position they'd only have dreamed of before he came in.

    Lambert came in and got Norwich promoted from League 1 and immediately the year after the Championship, whilst playing decent, attacking football.

    So, yeah, what exactly is your point?

    They both came in and immediately did a brilliant job.

  3. Why did we let go NRC again? It was just so dumb. I know we have to cut the wage bill but we have no other players like him. No replacements whatsoever.

    Heard it all now.

    Name a player at our disposal who tackles like Reo-Coker and also brings his energy in midfield.

    Go on. Name one single person.

    Chris Herd..

    No. He doesn't have the same constant energy that Reo-Coker has for 90 minutes.

  4. The word he allegedly said was 'negrito' which means 'little black man', I don't see how that isn't offensive anyway :S

    He called him a negro, which he admitted to, and his defence was it is not offensive in Uruguay.

    Yet he's been living in Europe for 6 years and did not know this?

    Absolute tosh.

    Where does he admit it?

    http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/liverpool/8957294/Luis-Suarez-racism-hearing-reputations-at-stake-as-panel-attempt-to-unravel-most-complicated-of-cases.html

    To be honest, I have lived in the UK all of my life, and this is the first time I have been given any cause whatsoever to believe that the word 'negro' was offensive. Is it outlawed in the way that certain other words are?

    In a conversation with a black person would you ever use the term "negro" towards them? I don't think so?

    Its not a term I'd ever even come across, but you can see from Suarez laughing and smirking, and Evras reaction, that it was used in a degrading manner, and not friendly as Suarez wants to make out.

  5. What exactly is the story then and where is this coming from?

    Started by a 12 year old over on VitalVilla so 100% gospel

    Wrong again, as it wasn't actually started over on VitalVilla.

    When will you ever get your supposedly factual posts correct for once?

    So some random poster on some random Villa forum says we're being bought out next year....people are really giving this the time of day?

    Explain therefore why after years of not giving a shit about the other 4% equity, Lerner is sending letters out stating he will be purchasing the last 4%, which it will not alter his ownership of the club whatsoever?

    I thought Lerner was looking after the costs, and suddenly he's paying for an extra 4% that doesn't give him anymore power or control than when he owned 96%.

    The logical conclusion is:

    A) He has done so as he intends to sell quietly, or cover legitimate interest up, as he'd be legally obliged to share such information with any other shareholder/s.

    B) He's going to put his debt into the club and sell it off, mentioned by Pete, I believe?

  6. Why did we let go NRC again? It was just so dumb. I know we have to cut the wage bill but we have no other players like him. No replacements whatsoever.

    Heard it all now.

    Go on. Name one single person.

  7. Liverpool fans complaining about Collymore tweeting about Suarez racism raw, are tweeting racist comments to him because he complains about racism.

    What a lovely little club.

    The word I was going to use was wankerish. What a wankerish little club.

    Not sure if that works though. >_>

  8. The word he allegedly said was 'negrito' which means 'little black man', I don't see how that isn't offensive anyway :S

    He called him a negro, which he admitted to, and his defence was it is not offensive in Uruguay.

    Absolute tosh.

  9. No more bullshit man. :(
    Don't worry, McLeish became the league's bullshit man months ago.

    Nah, that won't do. At least Kean was a bit humerous with his bullshit, even though it he doesn't intend on coming across like that, and is genuine in truly believing his bullshit..if you get me?

    McLeish just constantly talks the worst shit possible.

    Too much too soon for Kean

    No apprenticeship as such

    The pay off from a 3 year contract will help. However, he'll probably never get a decent job again, so he's gambled potential future earnings if he started from the bottom and worked his way up, with one single pay off.

    You never know, he might come out of this better than he would ever have done if he did start at League 1 and be just as shit there.

  10. Hilarious people think he is selling.

    Perhaps those same people will be chuffed with some Venkeys type owners?

    Could happen just as much as another City owner, grass is not always greener.

    I suppose it would be something else to moan about, run the new owners out of town because they are not spend spend spending.

    makouns_grin moaning about other fans moaning. Now there is a surprise.

    Change the **** record pal. Your hypocrisy is laughable, and so is the fact that you completely unaware of it.

  11. There is absolutely no reason to buy the last 4% considering he already has full and absolute legal control.

    Buying the last 4% means he can sell the club without informing the remaining 4% shareholders of the price he receives, or that there is genuine interest in a purchase.
