  1. This thread was started so we could vote for McGrath to give him a shot at getting in the team. There's now two teams listed in this thread which don't include him!
  2. Just voted for God. The most vomit inducing part of this voting is the fact they have included Alex Ferguson and Brian Kidd in 'Celebration of the last 20 yrs'. If I recall this was the day we were drawing 0-0 at home to Coventry and they were cheating there way to a 2-1 victory, secured in the 8th minute of injury time, as they moved ahead of us in the title race. Where's Dalian's goal against Wimbledon and the susequent umbrella celebration? rocket polishers.
  3. Wiggy, an interesting list. I would say that it didn't take the respective managers long however to realise the shiteness of those players you mention and drop/move them on. The difference here is that Hutton is still playing with no sign of being dropped/moved on. And you are being a bit harsh on Ormondroyd, he had a good spell at left wing under Taylor if I recall!
  4. Don't forget it was a coup for a club like Aston Villa to get this player! Hutton is perhaps THE worst player I have ever seen play for this great club and I saw Bernie Gallagher play a few times. I can't remember the last time we signed someone and there was such a unanimous thought of "Hmmm, he really is shit isn't he".
  5. Todays performance was exactly what i expected, I ended up beinYg more angry with Young than McLeish. However, those comments on the OS are horrific, it's almost like he himself is overawed. Leave now please Eck you utter utter prick.
  6. An I wrong in thinking heskey would be better than gabby at the moment?
  7. That is up there with the worst goals we have conceded this season .

  9. My lad won't deviate now, I've taken him to some matches now and he is hooked. The youngsters who have no 'parental guidance' or other attachment with the club will be off however, and Mcleish has to take some responsibility for that, as do Lerner and Faulkner.
  10. The worry for me with this lunatic still being in charge is the potentially long term damage this is doing. I have a 9 yr old lad, who due to my expert and careful nurturing is a Villa nut too. He is as frustrated as me, when I went in recently to a parents evening, as one of his English assignments I was amazed to see that he had written a letter in his workbook to McLeish asking him what was going on! My concern is that some of his friends who are also Villa fans are now starting to say "Villa suck", and "I'm going to support Man U now" and suchlike. Granted I am talking about a couple of his young pals, but I would guess this sort of wavering is normal amongst youngsters and decisions made now about support sow the seed for later life.
  11. Gabby wasn't good today and hasn't been for ages. That effort on his left foot was particularly grim.
  12. If we actually believed a bit in ourselves we could score more, they really are there for the taking. However, I fear we will have a famous McLeish team talk, attempt to sit back and defend, before conceding at least 3.
  13. Zhan - you should go to the game just so you know first hand what everyone is talking about!
  14. A young boy was sat in class scratching his crotch. Teacher asked him what was wrong. The boy was embarrassed explaining that he had recently been circumcised and it was itchy. Teacher tells him to go to the office to ring his mum for advice. The boy comes back into class with his cock hanging out.! 'What on earth are you doing.?' asks the teacher. Boy replies, 'My mum said if i could stick it out till lunchtime she'd come and get me'.
  15. Love is all Around by Wet Wet Wet was mine! It was number one for an eternity at the time when I met my wife and was always the last song on at the clubs as the lights came on when people smooched on the dancefloor. Does that still happen?
  16. We are going to get dicked. Can we offer them 0-3 without playing?
  17. Right, having got up for this after doing a night shift last night I've had enough and am back off to bed unless someone can convince me we are going to turn it around.
  18. Jon, you can try to support him but a jammy cup win and a promotion do not hide the fact that the man is doing terrible things to this club. Ask any Blues fans - their abiding memory is not the cup win but the horrific football and relegations. They are loving this, they've seen it all before. His record in this seasons Carling Cup was good wasn't it? Is anyone really confident we will beat Bristol Rovers in the FA Cup? We should be looking forward to that, but we will go there on the back of a bleak December and we will be there for the taking IMO. A long way off I know, but when are we going to improve - there is just nothing on the horizon to look forward to.
  19. Which ten jokers have clicked on 'Yes - he can take us forward?' :shock:
  20. They may be a top side now but a few years ago we were ahead of them! Unfortunately we have sold our best players and not backed the manager and they have kept their best players and backed theirs. Look at how they held on to Modric this year despite the player wanting to leave.
  21. Abysmal. Not interested. Lethargic. Spineless. Where were the changes? We are fast becoming the new Birmingham City which is desperately worrying.
  22. I watched Insidious and thought it was a pile of pap. However, when I went to bed having just watched it, it really played on my mind and I had a fairly restless night thinking it over and over - felt a bit of a girl in the morning!
