In fairness....Given has barely had to touch the ball, not brilliant but far from a disaster I would say

If investing 120 Million of your own money, then loaning a further 80 million is considered "rank mediocrity", I should be ashamed of my contribution. We don't deserve an owner like Randy Lerner with fans like you - no disrespect, but I wouldn't blame any other team for having a "lets laugh at villa" thread, a lot of the comments in this forum have been nothing short of what you would expect from a stroppy spoiled toddler.

commentator earlier mentioned it is stupidly warm conditions there...still high 30s - I think people really need to chill tbh...we beat Inter 3-0 last year FFS - thats how much these friendlies matter.

Absolutely and utterly...YES!!! Infact, would go as far to say I would be beyong gutted if he listened to the minority and called it a day any time soon.

what was the lie?

Coming from more the Walsall area, i genuinly dont know a Blues fan, i know for sure there arent any my general age in my village, and when i worked in a pub for 2 years not long ago i didnt even then meet a blues fan. However i know a few baggies fans (this area is mainly a divide between 1/2 Villa, then 1/4 'manu/liverpool' with about a 1/4 then either Wolves/Walsall or Baggies. I would genuinly say that given what baggies think of themselves, and what they think of us, that if they ever 'took over' us- say they finished above us one year....you'd all see what the oldest local rivalry in football is like. - most of them arent the most cultured of football fans, they tend to think anyone who has an above-mediocre game for them vs Luton or someone rubbish makes them a premiership material star, who should be banging on the door of clubs like Man Utd/Arsenal (Davies, kamara, Koumas, McShane, Nicholson, Chaplow, Gera and Phillips now but to name a few)

that was the conclusion i came to aswell before the thread got locked

I swing to the left also

Fifa for me - even if i am the only one. I just couldnt bear not having real teams and players - and Fifa 2005 is just - wickedly good. 0 but you have to get to know it for a bit - which i think puts people off too easily.
