  1. Oh and why was he calling Jesus Suso ? Is that a nickname or summat
  2. Just watched his interview with OS. He comes across as humble and not overawed by it all. Although I think when he walks out on Saturday to a full house he will get goosebumps for a while and then he'll settle down. Shame I can't make it. Also watched JT & ROK interview, you can tell who has had more media training. I think they're gonna fit with each other really well and it will be to our benefit.
  3. Smith is showing em summat funny on his phone. Either his winnings from Sky Bet or the Championship table
  4. I hope we do, but unfortunately the cabbage throwing idiot will probably be there booing.
  5. Having had a few hours to take this in, I'm ready to say a few words...... Doug Ellis was one of my earliest memories of Villa, mainly passed on by my late Dad. He lived through both versions of him being chairman . Regardless of your personal opinion of him he was Villa through and through and everything he did (right or wrong) was for the best for Villa, or at least what he believed was the best. We certainly wouldn't be worried about FFP under him for one thing. My other half met him a few times and always said he was polite and respectful to her, unlike some other people she came across in her work. I didn't agree with naming a stand after him but I would gladly see it changed to the Sir Doug Ellis Stand in his memory. He deserves his position in our history. We have lost many Villa heroes in my time and although he didn't score the goals or wear the shirt he should be remembered the same as those that did. Villa won't be the same without him and no cabbage throwing muppet will change that. RIP Doug, you will be missed
  6. I think NSWE and Purslow will have patience and give them plenty of time. They seem to be trying to build a dynasty (for want of a better word). A complete change of style and structure isn't a quick fix, it can take months if not years, especially from our starting point. Smith being a fan and Terry having a good year last year will earn them a little extra patience from the fans (apart from the ones that will never be happy) and I believe the large majority of fans will accept this is a long process. What will help things along will be a good start and some good football. We have some quality players, both in first team and U23's and they will all know this could be their time. We've had a challenging decade or so, so maybe this is finally the pay off, the chance we have been waiting for. Properly rich owners and young forward thinking coaching team. It isn't rocket science, even though Villa do seem to make it look like it is.
  7. First day of training.... JT: ?Stand by me? Mile: Ok cobba JT: Not you Mile, you ain't a centre back mate Mile: But... But... But Axel: Is it my turn now Hutton: But I thought you were a right back Axel Axel: ??? Hogan: Can I play now
  8. Let's get behind the new team, and help them get us out of this god awful league
  9. If it's gonna be Terry then he'll need a good number two
  10. Isn't this all just speculation anyway, a bit like Jesus
  11. I wonder if he'll visit the lepers at the Sty or fix all the blind refs
  12. He's not a miracle worker...... Oh hang on
  13. I'd be happy with Terry as a number two or assistant coach. Rodgers or Benitez as numero uno
  14. This reminds me of that kid on Kindergarden Cop
  15. How many people does Smith have with him? Cos if its a whole army then what's the point. Too many cooks and all that
  16. Can't wait for the 5 right backs and 2 goalies to arrive
  17. I think we are weak in two positions, centre back and goalie. The rest of them are plenty adequate.
  18. But wern't most people saying we have one of the best squads in the league a few weeks ago and should be doing better? Now all of a sudden they are shite and no amount of coaching will help. Christ on a bike. We are low on confidence, they need a boost, some good coaching and probably a good kick up the arse
  19. Or House of Cabbages, or is that Newcastle's new name
