I do read, Mainly football autobiographys, but some crime, thriller and scandal ones too.

What a post Lancs!! 100% spot on and i couldn't have said it better myself.

One of the very best things i have read since being a member of VillaTalk!

right,

your sitting in the pub and infront of you is a suitcase, it contains 1 million pounds. on the table opposite sits a man. a hard working, honest man who has always done the best by his wife and two kids. you can take this suitcase and walk straight out with the money however, if you do the man on the table opposite will have the most unfortunate missfortune of getting run over on his way home

what would you do?

EDIT: the man dies

.. Offer to pay for his Funeral for a start!!!

Very true.. and i agree with the majority on here, that this is a mess, needs looked into further.. this is shambolic.

Only a week ago the Scottish FA made the same f* up drawning aberdeen twice or something, and it looks 90-10 that the English FA have f* up on this one too!!

Even if we still end up playing Manure.. i still want verification or something from the FA.. other wise It's what demitri and a few others have posted, and still looks to remain a farce.

Is it just me or will our 'Old Firm' game now in april be even more hyped up..

MON & Mcleish going head to head.. this has to be brilliant for our ' local Derby' status, and midlands football in general..

Think of the build up to this one come april... especially as its nearer the end of the season aswell, amoung the other hype that will now be added to it, and again alot could be riding on this game for both teams come that time!! (Brum getting the win that keeps them up.. or Villa getting the win (which will happen) to gain a minimum Uefa Cup place in the league!!)

Ha.. so mcleish is the new farmer at the sty... all i can say is.. of all the clubs that man could have chosen and he landed up at dirty birmingham..

Oh well its about right, as he was always the 2nd best manager in glasgow aswell behind o'neil.. looks like history repeating itself again in birminham!!!

See you in april alex.

Wouldnt it be brilliant if Carson Yeung came out on friday at the Blues deadline for the takeover and told the world he was a Villa fan having a bit of a laugh?

Waahahahahahaha!!

This thread is such comedy!

Id love for McClown to get the job at the sty, having already hate the carrot this would just be the most hated club than it already is now!!

...Lemme guess.. there going to make a statment saying they have approched Arsene Wenger next!! :roll:

hitchings has just said wigan are bigger than blose, that really is embarassing if you are getting called that

Did'nt O'Deary say the same about us a few years back when he was in charge - i.e. "We can't compete with the Wigans or Charltons of this world"....

Imagine the quality stuff he'd come out with as blose boss.....

HA HA True..

"My time at Villa, we... blah blah blah"

"Iv'e known Ridgewell since the Villa Days.. He was one of my honest bunch of lads"

"When i was at leeds... blah blah blah"

"We've got a small squad"

The interviews would be great viewing on MOTD... thats if they stay in the premier league.. which with this mess going on.. i recommend taking the best price you can get on birmingham being relegated and make some money while you can.

I bet this is how ridgewell felt after he scored....

"The first game was touch and go and O'Leary dancing across the pitch as he did will stick for a while...but there you go," added Bruce, shaking his head at the former Villa boss.

Berger would still rip them apart!!

Aint nobody ripping them apart. When you all going to realise we are not that good!?

Excuse me for getting excited about sundays game! :winkold:

Berger would still rip them apart!!

ooh crumbs... il post the link!

Edit - tried the short link thing but it keeps coming up saying sky sports error when its done that way.. but a link is better than no link!

Martin O'Neill feels Aston Villa's imports will soon understand the 'fuss' of Sunday's Midlands derby with Birmingham City.

The Villa boss expects his locally-born contingent, which includes the likes of Zat Knight and Gabriel Agbonlahor, to appreciate the importance of the match.

But O'Neill also believes his overseas players will quickly adapt to the special flavour associated with a local derby.

"I think that they would have a better feel for it, than perhaps some of the players who have been on foreign fields," O'Neill told the club's official website.

Fuss

"It doesn't mean you are going to play any better in the game. But during the course of it, if you understand what it is all about, it shouldn't hinder you anyway.

"Yet, interestingly, somebody steps in who doesn't know what all of this is about, for instance, in recent years at Celtic - because in the last 10 or 12 years or whatever, there were more foreign players coming in to play in the Old Firm derby.

"Where it used to be packed with Scotsmen, suddenly there are lots of players who initially would want to know what all of the fuss is about - but then soon got to know what all of the fuss is about.

"They will all get to know what all of the fuss is about on Sunday."

They will if we don't win..

Just come to Villa talk!

"I remember the day I signed him when his father and his agent came to see me," said Ellis.

"We had a long meeting and he was going to be getting two-and-a-half times more than he was earning as an apprentice.

I wonder if Alan Sugar knows about this!! :winkold:

..... il get my coat!!

haha i remember when that sour faced applejohn 'le tosser' predicted only a few weeks ago chelsea would beat us.. and we ended up making them look poor!

...but le tosser knows everything about football i guess.. all them players of the year awards he won.. countless winners medals.. :?

Rant over!

we will smash them to the ground and no mistake about it. it will be bloody and glorious. david gold is pathetic.

I wouldn't even waste time talking about the gypsy(s)!

This game is going to be so immense come saturday!!

If Carew is fit, he should make the bench and not thrown straight back in like its been suggested!

Id also play Gardner at RB and move Mellberg back into DC for this one!

A midfield of Petrov - NRC - Barry - Young* (pending fitness)

Views everyone....

At this point in time.. it is Yves La Rock - Rise Up

Why can you never buy a cup of tea at St. Andrews?

...Because all the mugs are on there pitch and all the Cups are at Villa Park!

...Super... cue the next 20 pages of 'The J Defoe Thread... listen guys... just look back over the last 700 pages.. im sure it's all been spoke about before...

I've said it once and il say it again.. but anyone would think the way half the people bum him up that he was only only striker in the world gettable. :yawn:

Brilliant Article!!!!!

Im with you jez.. as much as i don't wanna read into it, it just pisses me right off, spurs thinking there somethng all of a sudden cus of a few things they have going for them!

... Theres always one thing that Spurs will never get over on us and thats a European Cup in there trophy cabnet!!

West Ham are just panicing if you ask me.... they are going all guns blazing to try and get these players thinking they will lose out in the long run.

By the start of pre season they will of paid Parker 500k in wages never mind any other players they will get!!!

Randy aint stupid, whats all the rush about???
