  1. Listening to this on the radio is giving me heart palpitations.
  2. Hope the big man is alright and all the best to him and his family.
  3. We seem to have the new Heskey/Owen combo if we can get them I play together...
  4. That was a good and deserved win. Made it a bit nervy for ourselves at the end, but that’s a good result and we are pushing on! UTV!
  5. Sake Adomah. That was a really poorly timed run
  6. He has scored 10 in 13. Alright it’s australia but in any national league I’d say that’s quite impressive. If they’re barely paying his wages why not give him another chance? It wasn’t long ago he was scoring for fun in the championship. If Gabby gets a million chances I don’t see why McCormack can’t gave a second.
  7. Likewise. You’ve totally changed my mind and now I’m annoyed as well. Thanks. I was so mellow this evening until now.
  8. Gotta be honest I don’t care about the FA Cup. I’d like us to go out. Not like we’d win it otherwise...
  9. I flip flop a lot with Bruce. I just don’t know where I stand. When I’m in the out camp it’s because of dross football and baffling team selections and tactics. And then he goes and blows a promotion chasing team out of the water like they’re not even there. I’m hoping he can make this easy for us by just consistently spanking everyone.
  10. No not kidding. It’s easier to fluff a one on one (which we have seen a lot) than to lay it off for a completely open goal. Not saying it wasn’t a good finish, I just think it was the wrong choice. But hey, he scored so whatever.
  11. Saw the highlights. Great result but kinda surprised we got a clean sheet. Also a bit annoyed that Bjikir didn’t lay it off to Hogan for his goal - he could have easily had his shot saved whereas Hogan would have had an open goal. But hey, happy days.
  12. You know in the pre-match thread where o wrote “We’re going to get torn apart”? It was meant to say THEY’RE going to get torn apart. Damned autocorrect eh
  13. The sentiment of this post is exactly why I hate the Championship so much. We are reduced to waiting for a “goal horn” on a radio (if we are lucky) when we used to be able to watch every game.
  14. I’m in no way supporting our past appointments here but I do think the above is unrealistic. No manager will ever get the chance for a long-term strategy at Villa. It’s basically get promotion or off with your head.
  15. For me this defines Bruce’s reign. Sign a striker for £12m and literally play no strikers when your £12m striker is your only option? Such an unbelievable waste of money. Him and McCormack for £24m is something I will never be able to get over.
  16. Remember that time I said this would be a boring draw?
  17. I surprised anyone has predicted anything other than a boring draw.
  18. Give it to John Terry. Seems like the man to give them the kick up the arse they need, it’d be nice to try someone young and not on the merry go round and he has worked with the best in the world so surely that’s going to have rubbed off on him.
  19. That was it for me today. We started with no strikers despite having spent £36m on strikers, one of whom HE signed. We quite clearly aren’t going up.
