  1. Well the badge is brown and blue. So brown kit?
  2. He is a turbo-word removed reminiscent of prior Villa eras. Really disappointed in the owners for doing this.
  3. So Heck will allow this badge some time to see how we react, like with the round one that even those of us who didn’t like it have come to kind of like in light of our success right? Right??
  4. Unai Emery’s black and blue army
  5. Totally shit and worse than the “current” shield badge and far, far worse than the round badge. Impressively I think they have found a badge that will upset everyone. No one likes the Lerner badge, some love the circle and some are meh but I don’t think any hate it passionately, a lot wanted just a lion or some derivative of that and some liked the modern-vibe gas lamp.
  6. Well I can think of a Villa player who spent his whole career going out on loan before moving to us then lifting the World Cup! If he just keeps on this trajectory I don’t see why he can’t end up playing a role for us even if he’s just loaned out continuously until then. We all scratched our heads when we signed him but he just evolves every year. He’s like a FIFA player with high potential and the algorithms are just whacking some extra ratings onto him every year.
  7. It’s not far off. Honestly listen to just a bit of one game he commentates on from the start. It’s extremely cringeworthy how he tries to Hollywood everything
  8. MOHAMMED SALAH! THE KING OF CAIRO! THE ELEGANT EGYPTIAN! THE MAN WHO THE KOPP ADORES AND FOR KLOPP HE SCORES! HE WILL NEVER WALK ALONE AS HE SITS ON HIS THRONE THAT HE BUILT ON HIS OWN WITH HIS RECORD BREAKING REIGN OF RAMPAGE! RIFLING HOME FOR THE REDS! THE LIVER BIRD LIVES ON IN HIS LEGENDARY LEGACY FOR LIVERPOOL! A SIGNATURE FINISH FOR THE SCOUSER BY HEART, WHICH FOR HIM IS AN ART!
  9. There was definitely contact. But neither here nor there - terrible call. But couldn’t be overturned. Because of reasons and such.
  10. Something remarkable about watching this. This game involved Klopp, Howe, Carragher, Neville, the city of Liverpool and the city of Newcastle… …and yet the most infuriating thing about this game was Peter Drury. I don’t think there is anything my irritating in football right now than his commentary. Could almost hear his pre-prepared paper of Shakespearean shite that he’d written down trembling in his hand with his cock in the other every time Salah had a shot to complete his hat-trick.
  11. Unless you want to watch an old man boogie woogie the **** out of something that never asked or wanted to be boogie woogied, then don’t watch it.
  12. Incidentally, I knew we had a penalty desperately chancing a look at Villa Talk but was then handed a poopy child by my wife in an area with limited signal and I was out of the game. I didn’t see anything again until after FT so I just got to see 3-2 and sigh relief. If I had to watch that double crossbar challenge Dougie attempted, my child wouldn’t have been the only poopy one…

    Unai Emery

    If he asked for a statue and a stand to be named after him right now, I’d give it to him. Ive been a Villa fan only since 2001ish and this is the only time as a fan Ive been truly excited and happy except for perhaps MON’s first league cup final as that felt like a false dawn of a corner turned. Even under the MON days it just felt a bit ‘off’ most of the time. Now we feel like real challengers. I actually wouldn’t be stunned if we won the league. Obviously it’d be incredible but because of what Unai has already done it wouldn’t appear absurd. then you remember that a very short time ago we were 17th under Gerrard.
  14. I was proper twisting the knife on this guy. Now I think he could well be one of our best players. He’s made me out to be a mug and Ive learned my lesson about (1) giving players time and (2) the effect shit coaching can have on a player. Hence I will back Zaniolo, Diaby and any future wavering signing to the death
  15. He needs Bouba. With Bouba he is world class. It’s the one worrying thing with Villa - we are very very reliant on our starting XI. I use worry loosely given we are 2nd in the league lol.
  16. Didn’t he score from like 40 yards on the volley once? Absolute worldy
  17. So weird. Only a day ago there was two or three articles on the BBC about the United win against Villa being a renaissance of sorts. It’s almost like our national unbiased reporting organisation just spaffs themselves about United at every opportunity but surely that isn’t the case
  18. Think VAR will look at this? Looks pretty marginal for offside
  19. It’s gut wrenching how far we have dropped off. As this is Villa this season has felt like a generational chance to achieve something. Now we are in relegation form (not that we are going to be anywhere near relegation but this is presently 2 points from what should be a guaranteed 9)
  20. lol it’s just so laughable. I was with my in laws during the Shef Utd game who have no interest in football but have interest in my interests if that makes sense, so I had to explain why I wasn’t celebrating, why the score could be 1-0 then suddenly not 1-0, what all the stopping was all about and then why is it still on when we got to a gazillion minutes or whatever it was. It has completely changed football from what was recognisable even to a layperson. The soul has been torn from the game. And for what exactly? 1% more accurate decisions but a HELL of a lot more controversy and sitting around waiting and not celebrating?
  21. First let’s flick through 5 completely pointless frames. Then let’s analyse the obvious onside for 2 minutes. Then let’s check every other rule that could possibly be breached. I honestly don’t blame the officials because of how much they are scrutinised now. This absolutely kills the game
