Every time i see this thread at the top i keep thinking we are up for sale!
Bummer Ehh...
-
Really really hoping I win that facebook competition and get flown over to see a game
It's hard being a Villa fan on the other side of the planet.
Its hard living round the corner pal!

I have a question for everybody.....
Lets suppose we did somehow scrape survival & remain in the Premier League for another season.
Do you honestly think Randy Lerner will invest in the team "properly" in the summer?
Or do you think his eyes will glimmer with $$$$'s & he will cut his losses still further, pocket the windfall from the new TV money... Give Lambert a ridiculously small kitty designed at bringing in more lower league & cheap foreign players resulting in us struggling yet again next season & then having recouped most of his investment "do one" asap?
Yeah im affraid we are the new wigan!

Ideal for division 2.

The man picking the team and selecting Tactics will relegate us!
Width Simples.

Carroll = £35m ergo would ask for £40m. I would be annoyed with less than Carrolls fee.
No chance pal, Lerners got no bottle to hold out for a proper bidding war. £12-14M and lerner will crumble like the coward he is!
Still hiding in knobsville or where ever the **** he is!

Its lamberks tactics that will relegate us not the player!
Having a football team is the same as a kit car, You can have all the best parts in the world but if you dont put them in the right place/order and strike a ballance you will be going know where quick.
Might as well stick diesel in a petrol, It will run for a short time but then stutter and stall then end up in smoke!

STEPHEN IRELAND has revved up for a possible loan debut for Newcastle tomorrow with a blast at his club Aston Villa and his country.
Ireland, who is rated a 50-50 chance to face Everton at St James’ Park, claims he was unfairly booted out by Villa manager Gerard Houllier.
He even says he had to pay for medical treatment from his own pocket during his spell there and that he was the best player during training despite being told to stay at home on match days.
Ireland said: “After 15 matches on the bench Houllier told me to stay at home. I trained during the week and on Fridays he told me, ‘no point your coming, you are not in the team’.
“Yet I was the best player in training. It was my team that won in every session. One of the few times he played me, we drew 0-0 at Chelsea and I ended up man of the match.
“Apparently that didn’t matter to him. I was stuck with being paid for doing nothing at all. I
was left to myself. I had to pay out of my own pocket for medical treatment. Can you believe that?”
Ireland says he was also unhappy at being singled out over requests to move house from Manchester.
“Houllier asked me to come and live in Birmingham because it was taking me 75 minutes to come to training. But there were 15 players in the same position as me. Some came from London and took more thNan two hours, but he only asked me to move.
“For a start, Birmingham is a c**p city and I wasn’t going to make the effort, especially as I wasn’t playing. Might as well be in Manchester if I had to stay home on match days.
“I don’t bear Houllier any grudges, it wasn’t him who chose me after all.”
Ireland, who made his remarks to French magazine So Foot, is desperate for action. He last played for Villa against Liverpool in December.
He added: “I just want to play and have a manager who really wants me for once. I have no idea at the moment who I will be playing for next season. My future is unclear.”
He also claims he would rather shoot himself than return to his native Cork.
Ireland, who turned his back on the Republic’s team four years ago, has even suggested the country deserves the economic chaos into which it has plunged.
“Ireland is only reaping what it has sown,” he said. “They have put buildings up just for the sake of it and, in the end, no one lives inside them. That has cost a huge amount of money.
“But I don’t give a damn for Ireland. Live in Cork? Rather shoot myself. I prefer Los Angeles.” And he made crystal clear his determination to never wear his country’s shirt again. “Even at youth level, it p****d me off to go there,” he said. “Everyone came from Dublin. I was the only guy from Cork. I had to take the train on my own, pay for a taxi, there was no hotel, no grub. It was handled so amateurishly.
“National teams don’t interest me. I have more to do than go off for three days to play Andorra. And when you are Irish, you are well aware you’ll never win the World Cup.
“I feel nothing for the team. I absolutely don’t feel guilty when they lose and, when they win, at no time do I think I could have been there.
“Even if Ireland had qualified for the World Cup, I wouldn’t have gone. People call for my return, but I have only played five times for them. The national team and me are ancient history.”
He is only saying what everybody else thinks!
Nothing wrong with that.

No chance he will be here next season, no matter what division we are in.
Lerner and faulkner didnt have the balls or brains to keep our best players when we were flirting with the top 4.
Same shite different day flirting with the bottom 4!
-
I don't see him getting into the Madrid 11 LOL
Agree, Its a bit like the fonz going to spurs or arsenal.
No doubt he is good, but a world class rated £28m player is just a tad OTT after just 6 months!
-
He has been rubbish. Certainly not justifying the huge wage that Lerner and Faulkner gave him. How many mangers now have not got the best out of him?
Mancini
Macdonald
Houllier
Mcallister
Lambert
Yet lambert is the one getting the blame, sounds right.
MONS fault!
-
We dont deserve a striker like him if we are not going to invest in proper quality players to play around him,
Was prob fed another load of bull shite off faulkner again.
Oh yeah come to the villa we are going places, Gonna buy some top players aswell blah-blah-blah!..
Then in comes the 2nd and 3rd division brigade and wallop relegation fight!
Very same reason Fabregas and RVP left arsenal... Club going know where only backwards so dont deserve to have them!
Some birds are just not ment to be caged!
-
Well we are due one in 13-14 mate...
Jesus man, we just won a game, cheer up.
The same go's for lambert he is also of the same ingredients. Should he have been any kop and an offer came in he would have done what he did to his last 2-3 clubs kicked up a fuss and done one.Problem is he kicked up a fuss to get to Villa, if a bigger club come in for him he will kick up a fuss again. It's obvious he's far too good for us and is destined for big things. I just hope we can convince him to stay for 1 more season.
Unfortunately we are stuck with him now becaues he's shite and out of his depth, got owen coyle, phill brown and steve bruce all over it.
The real problem though is our coward of an owner who has no bottle
Any offers over 12-14m and lerner will shite his pants again and BOOM!.. Bang go's another best player!

We have sold out every season since they moved there.
Saying that not sure about last season as its the one and only season i have ever missed there.
Still remember it like yesterday, The first ever team/fans celebration at the emirates
One bright sunny day and up pops Olof Mellberg

I'm hoping/praying I get the next 2 results wrongI have been having a look at our remaining games.
Trying to be objective and not letting my heart rule my head, I have come up with the following possible results:
Everton - draw
West Ham - Villa win
Arsenal - Villa loss
Man City - Villa loss
Reading - Villa win
QPR - Villa win
Liverpool - draw
Stoke - Villa loss
Fulham - Villa win
Man Utd - Villa loss
Sunderland - draw
Norwich - Villa loss
Chelsea - Villa loss
Wigan - Villa loss
This would leave us finishing our league campaign on 35 points.
Is that enough?
I think thats a pretty fair prediction you got there,
Only one i would change is lose with liverpool and a draw at wigan, but still ends on the same pionts.
-
I dont think hes cut out for it. Every player matures differently.. but Benteke and Bowery are close in age and there is a monumental gap in quality between the two. Bowery would be good if we fell to the championship though.
Hence the price tags.
-
Yeah was never in any doubt to be honest pal...you got your answer then
-
Sorry but i will not give lamberk the clown any credit for making the change that obviousely won us the game!
Its the god damn team we should be starting with!..
Im sick to fcuking death of chancers gambling with my fcuking football club!
Yanks and school boys out!

Run that by me again!Surely even Villa can't **** this up now.
