    It's been Thursday for 16 hours already! Even longer for you @Kiwivillan !!

    I've kept away from this thread on purpose. Now that I'm here and catching up on a few things - just had to say I love your diamond AV logo! A real standout amongst all the other PL badges. Well done!

    No no - you have that backwards. I don't read twitter. Ever. Too much garbage, regardless of topic. But I do read the ones that filter through on here. Some may still be less than reliable - but it's still better than trawling through all of Twitter.

    Those circles on the shirt - are they olympic circles to remind everyone that they got their stadium for free?

    I liked Wes. Deffo needed time, but there was something in there. But it didn't happen, we got Ollie Watkins and - despite him getting pelters on here by some - OW is clearly the better of the 2. Good luck to Wes wherever he ends up - but it ain't here.

    We're convicts. Edukation aint our thing innit?

    Ah yes. Let's conveniently dismiss anything else that might have contributed to the result..... ... you know, like Stokes being caught out before hitting 50 and it not being given. And, IIRC, we've played you twice in football (at least, in recent memory - going back 20 years). It stands at 1 a piece

    Ahhh.. Brendan McCullum. Wouldn't have a beer with the Aussies given what we just did. Clearly not in the spirit of the game. He'd never do something like that...... right? Oh the irony.

    Gerard Houlier. Pilloried on here during his only season in charge before bad health saw him step down. Took us from a counter-attacking team to one that wanted to boss possession, made the players train and eat properly (which really made Dunne and Collins mad), dared to mention the fond memories he had of Liverpool when we played them and despite spending large periods in the bottom of the table, ended up 9th - which posters here wanted to attribute to MacAllister!! We then replaced him with McLeish. About as far away ideologically as you can get.

    Oh please. Bairstow tried the same thing not 2 days earlier.

    That's why they broke from the church in a movement called "The reformation"

    You've captured the very problem with social media. Yep, blurt out whatever you think, whenever you think of it - true/false, doesn't matter... ... to a global audience. In what universe is that a good thing? If nothing else, blurt it out to your mates and see what sort of reaction you get before you decide to update mankind with your particular form of wisdom.

    Yeah, Verstappen can give but not take. Perez got the better start, so Verstappen tried to squeeze him to the barriers down the first straight. Perez with the inside line meant he was narrow so Verstappen had the run after the first corner and Perez returned the favour. Verstappen still tried to round him using the grass. Verstappen then braked way, way, way late trying to get underneath Perez at the next corner, forcing him off the track and making Norris have to use anti-stall as Verstappen came to a standstill and Norris had no where to go, which sent him way down the order. Petulant? yep.

    Sad to see him go - but not unsurprising. Postecoglou is a big believer in personalities and talent in the Australian ranks. Had Harry Kewell as an assistant at Celtic. Had Kevin Muscat as an assistant in Japan. Mile is a model professional and their relationship goes back to winning the Asian Cup in 2015 when Mile was captain. All the best Mile.... ... but not wishing you success considering it's spuds.

    so... Ashley Westwood MkII ?

    yeah - bin dunne

    Hard to argue with the clubs decision to remove him from the football side of things given our run under Emery since. Good on Purslow to decide a non-football role is not for him and stepping down. Overall did a good job - but I wonder if it's the appointment of Gerrard that undid him.

    Change of tack here: Lee Hendrie He was a pantomime villain for a lot of his time playing for us. Whether it was his off-field antics, his call for a testimonial game in an era where footballers were paid very well, or his single cap for England - a sign of unfulfilled promise. He seemed to have a knack for putting fans offside, regardless of performances. Loved watching him play, though. He linked up play well, knew where players were and chipped in with goals himself. Seems our distaste for creative midfielders who "can't deliver every game" is a Villa thing. See: Buendia, Coutinho

    Aye. We're Vultures. Picking off players that made their name elsewhere: Jacob Ramsey John McGinn Tyronne Mings Emi Martinez Vultures, I tell you!

    I dunno. I'm first generation Australian, thick Aussie accent and can speak nothing but English. My father, though, is Hungarian. He's been living here since he was 19, coming as a refugee in 1956. He speaks English only now and very well - in fact, he'd now struggle to speak his original tongue - but could never lose his accent. It still cuts him up when people make fun of it. Like there's something he could do about it. But hey, it's just a bit of fun, innit?
