we need a director of football.

Bring back Gerrard.

Well, we definately need some football knowledge at board level.

I'm afraid it's becoming quite clear the board are lacking any.. (and disaster after disaster last season)

Yep..666, a sure sign.

the antichrist cometh..and aint that the truth for Villa fans!

Twitter is a bag of shit :!:

Provide idiots some joy over gullible idiots :!:

Looks like we're in for a crazy summer. Possibly the largest spent yet?

Fergie looks to have targetted several players

Dalglish is being backed heavily by the new board

Villa need a squad overhaul

Wenger tired of falling at the last hurdle all the time?

New Chelsea manager - who knows!

Harry Redknapp!

Sunderland have money to spend

And i'm sure the rest will chime in!

None really excite me. And the best they could really do is 5-7th really under current conditions.

Expect Lerner will go for Hughes or Benitez as they are both easily obtainable. Rafa's that desperate i reckon he's already brought his villa tie!

Dunno why everyone wants Jol

Funny, he's not showing 100% on my screen!

Despite some concerns, it's still stay for me.

Cant believe we got nothing from this game. Fcking sad afternoon..We competed well but wasted too many great opportunities and we're shit defending set pieces. Still, mostly youth at the back today who are still learning the game.

My MOTM Downing. NRC not far behind and just wish we had deal in place for Walker! He's really come in and made a name for himself!

A bad bad day for our Ashley..

Must admit, i'm getting really pissed off seeing Gabby shoved on the left every game.

What a waste of time, just hamstinging ourselves from the off. We've got 3 very good wingers at the club, and Gabby on the left just contributes Fuk all to the team.

Absolutely bewildering..

He was a red but now he's BLUE Torres, Torres, he left the Kop, he loves the SHED, Torres, Torres. He used to go out on the rob, but now he's got a proper job. Fernando Torres, CHELSEA'S number 9. He played for them, they were so proud Torres, Torres. They used to sing his name so loud Torres, Torres. He loved 'em til they robbed his house, now he's a blue and hates the scouse Fernando Torres, Chelsea's number 9.

Thats well fukin funny

What a crazy day. Have Liverpool really splashed out 35m on Carroll ?? Football's gone mad. 35m should get you world class.

Makes our Bent purchase look a f'kin bargain!

Mike Ashley is one lucky f*cker

I can't help but blame the players - whoever caused trouble and difficulty resisting any hope of Houllier having a positive influence on the club are a disgrace to me. They get paid an enormous amount of money and are employed by the club, to be run by this manager. I have very little respect for footballers..

Very much agree with this. I certainly am looking forward to seeing many of the leeches leave our club. They shame there profession.

At last some fight from the team!

Good to see Warnock dropped (if indeed he was)

'There's only one Emile Heskey, one Emile Heskey,

He used to be shite, then MON left

Walking in a Heskey wonderland!"

MON

The players can go and f*ck themselves too. Paid so much, fans spend a fortune to watch them and they couldnt give a shit. F*ck football.

Also agree that all hold some blame.

Was concerned when the General said before the season, that our squad could accomplish 'great' things. I do worry that the board think our squad is a lot better than it actually is.. Hopefully they've got the point now!

Wonder if the General still thinks this squad can accomplish 'Great' things..

I thought he was deluded at the time. (No offense to the Gen!)

What a $%$%$ clown, Mike Ashley is. The joke is on Newcastle is seems..

Hope they go down after the awful treatment of Chris Hughton.

Unbelieveable. Always going to struggle with a chairman like that, so much shit is self inflicted there.

For those who want him sacked, you'd think we'd be an attractive option to any manager with any nous after they see how quickly/harshly Houllier was dealt with?

Much work to be done at Villa now for me, and a job that's next to impossible to succeed at, in the current Premier league conditions.

A manager knows he wouldn't have time and couldnt really win.

Hello General,

I too support Mr.Houllier at this time. I think it's insane people are judging him so soon with what he's had to deal with. Injuries into double figures, no pre-season, no transfer window.

Unfortuntely, in my opinion and from my observations, whichever manager you would have appointed, would have been met by negative comments from a few, as he would not have been Mr.O'Neill. It's clear to me that some regard and support Mr.O'Neill greater than AVFC.

This season was always going to be one of transition after the ill considered timing of Mr O'Neill's resignation. But i do think the board have made mistakes too, which i hope they learn from after this summers events.

I'm not sure If Mr.Houllier is the right man. But the time to make that judgement is nowhere near close.

I do think we're a very long way from our stated ambitions (top 4) and I do think you overrate our squad. Many are average players for me, and quite a few are on the wrong side of 30 and its showing.

Hope things can improve for us soon on the injury front and points gained!

What a repugnant stench FIFA has become.

I wish a few football federations/associations would get together and tell it where to go.

It's main interest is no longer football..

I've now started a new game on Fm2010. Feels great to get clubs making offers for my players again and not starting every game wondering whose going to get a red card.

I'll guess i'll take another look at FM2011 when the next patch arrives and see if it appeals.

Dont like dealing with the Agents in this personally. Though i have nothing against it being included, there just trying to add more to the game to make it as realistic as possible. But time is an issue for me and just want to play the games without all these mini auctions.

Would be nice if press interviews was an optional extra too..So boring and pretty pointless when you use the same answers all the time.

MON out!

oh good, he is!

Things bugging me in this game so far

* Impossible to sell players - Have to give most away!

* Conversations between you and players make no sense - Dont even bother with this now!

* Cards, Cards, Cards!

Just picked it up again, after nearly a 2 week break. Never seen so many red cards/bookings. As for selling players, i'd have a better chance of selling a prostitute in a nunnery!

So tempted to fire up FM10 again.

Yes, really disappointed with selling players.

Into second season now, moved a lot of players on. Most have had to been given away, and not one single player has been sold for more than his market value.

Also agree with people complaining about too many cards in this years game.

Agents are a pain in the arse, but i have no doubt that thats realistic!

Why do people continue to blame the board for MON resigning on his own free will? It's ridiculous.

Someone should start a MON forum for them...and put them out of their misery!

Progress yes - because although things are not right, I can see and hear that the manager actually knows it, and will attempt to put it right.

And with MON - I didn't !

Spot on my friend.
