Yep, that's how I feel. A chance to consolidate and even kick on has gone begging.

VT Transfer threads - you just can't beat 'em

I have the feeling that there will be zero players in as none of the so-called targets even seem to be close.

He did, unlike the arseholes that booed their national anthem. That wound the Yanks up like nothing and looks bad on what great support he had with him.MW, was rattled in the first few rounds, but the class that he has lured Ricky off his game plan and he also played the ref a blinder too. That's what makes a Champion of his calibre. I also think that if the fight had been in the UK, it would have been closer. Nevermind, I'd like t see Ricky concetrate on the Light Welterweight division. He still has a lot to offer.

Its a close call, but I'm going for Hatton.

Dolly coming out of retirement would be funny. However, in the light of day, they are still a Premiership club and I can see a lot of Managers, despite the shite that is going on there, wanting to have a crack at it.

Never heard that one before. TSV - sending you a PM

Manchester, the Seventh City?

Could we do that if wolverhampton and coventry are cities in there own right EDIT: So is Salford so why the hell not I'm quite sure that the residents of Wolves and Cov would be in uproar about being a part of Birmingham, in much the same case as those of Oldham, Stockport and Bolton would be as part of Manchester. Manchester is not as big as Leeds.

One Villa, One SHA, Three Tescos

General, can we please make sure that the stewards adhere to the timzones allocated then, rather than trimming them for the sake of it. On more than one occasion, the bars have been shut 20 mins before the start of a game, I know because I had a discussion with one of the senior stewards, a young lady in the UpperHolte, who in the end said to me, and I'll quote "I decide when the shutters come down". Has the cub looked into challenging this bye-law?

As a normal Holtender, this is something similar to what I've asked in the past. I was in the Trinity today and the serving points that were so-called "express" were nothing of the sort, and finely managed to get a drink and in turn miss Laursens goal. A few of points: 1. General, there are some grounds that allocate drinking time prior to the match, right up to kick off. How come we don't have that at Villa? Someone mentioned to me that it is a local bye-law - is this true? 2. At Edgbaston and New Road Worcester, there are a succession of multi-pulls to deal with a rush between the breaks in the Cricket. Villa have one in Ramseys - one! Can this be addressed? 3. Why do the stewards also have this incessant need to get the shutters down prior to the start of the second half. This antagonises a lot of people, especially when they have waited 10 mins or more to get a beer, and then see that their opportunity to get one starting to fade. I've asked this before, not sure whether this was on here or H&V. I know that there are more pressing things at hand, but I know that it cheeses off quite a few people, not only myself.

General, that's great news. Unfortunately, due to the nature of their fans and those of Manure, they tend to hunt down tickets that should be reserved for long standing Villa customers. TicketMaster would sell to anyone.

Class tune

Rappers Delight - The Sugarhill Gang

Not really into the new music scene these days, too much rubbish that sounds all the same, but I've "aquired" their Album and I'm quietly impressed.

As a ST holder, I would have thought that it wold be better to keep the seats cheap for all, to cover the costs of stewarding etc/ May encourage the more fair weather fans to come more often if there is a larger crowd and good atmosphere. General, do you know when these tickets wil be available?

General, I think that the new version will have all the English Teams licensed, but would be great to know for certain.

Allardyce is mad to let Parker go, he and Owen are perhaps the only 2 players in their Squad that I wuld ahve at the Villa

Well when city stuffed us at Villa Park this year he was their best player and bossed midfield. Well I actually dont agree with that to be honest, but there you go opinions opinions. .. and IMO also was the best player on the pitch by a country mile that night.

Gonna have to disagree with you there Rich, I think that Barton under the right Manager could become an awesome player, better than he is at Man City now. Whether MON wants to take a chance, only time will tell.

You just mentioned him in your supposed midfield line-up People need to understand, or is that the Robo enforced VT opnion? We all back MON and I trust too that he knows what he is doing the most important thing, is what he considers a competitive squad, and I hope that it is Kewell-less.

just about spot on, some people o here after years of Ellisian thinking don't get the idea of a competitive squad. Berger is a perfect example of this You really are obsessed. We all know what a competitive squad is, but there are some of us think that Kewell is a bag of tosswank.

I think I'll take Rafa's view thx

To be fair Zenden is not dross and was picked for the CL Semi- Final. He has had a bad run of injuries
