  1. James Milner believes that matches being cancelled for something as trivial as a frozen pitch is a symptom of the French being allowed to play in the Premier League. Back in his day, if at least one player didn't break his leg every game, nobody could look eachother in the eye in the dressing room post match.
  2. Guzan is our cup specialist. Friedel isn't young, needs a rest, and nothing Guzan has done suggest he shouldn't continue to be picked.
  3. Young has been good for quite a while now IMO, we definitely miss his crosses in. We also missed having Milfner in centre mid IMO, so our whole structure was thrown out and it showed.
  4. How fitting that we get robbed by scousers. Referee was shit shit shit all game. Made stupid calls and missed obvious ones for both sides.
  5. NRC has been pretty good so far. I keep thinking he's going to get himself into trouble and he keeps getting out of it. We're doing fine, there is nothing between the clubs. Gone are the days when Liverpool could outclass us, that's for sure. I feel like Downing's volley from the corner would have been a goal 4 times out of 5. Just really hard luck, really well directed on goal.
  6. Not pretty, good result. Good teams get results when they don't play well, we're a good team. Pretty happy, goal was terrific, defensive tenacity was terrific, good win.
  7. Best. Episode. Ever! UP THE VILLA! 10/10 all round with a special 11/10 for all players I didn't specifically mention.
  8. Didn't look like it struck his arm to me. If there was slight arm contact, it was minimal as the arm was against his side. If we'd been disallowed a goal because of a handball like that given i'd be livid.
  9. Olaf Cuellar and Carlos Mellberg were both amazing. It's great to see a bit of quality competition for the centre half positions. It's not so great to see the lack of quality competition for the centre mid positions. Really disappointing performance, we were dominated and we were lucky to scrape that point.
  10. The reason Han Solo didn't reply with "I love you too" to Leia at the end of Empire Strikes Back is because he was really in love with James Milner.
  11. Good game, Gabby was brilliant again, we defended really well and Friedel was brilliant as usual. If only Dunne scoring a header over Barry was the winner, it would have been so fitting. Not a bad result but draws are never very satisfying.
  12. I look at it this way, if Gabby had tried the overhead and it had hit Samba in the arms in the same fashion, and a penalty HADN'T been given, i'd have gone absolutely apeshit.
  13. To MON: 4-5-1 plz. kthxbai. The penalty was there. If you've got your hands up in the air in the box and the ball strikes them, you can't really complain. A game we should have been able to put away a lot earlier.
  14. I watch from a couch, but that's only because I live about 16000km away. I'd be a season ticket holder without doubt if I lived anywhere near Birmingham. Generally I distinguish between fan and supporter by saying a fan is someone who follows the club, but a supporter supports the club financially by attending games on a fairly regular basis if they can, buying merchandise and generally doing what they can to support the club.
  15. I think Lerner will give save his dignity by letting him see out the season at least, even if things aren't going well. I don't think we'll be relegation fodder regardless, but if we drop to below 11th or 12th I think he'll be replaced at the end of the season.
  16. I agree, it's really grown on me. It's much, much better than the old stripey shield, and is a classical and timeless design. You think people getting us confused with West Ham is bad in England? Try moving to Australia. Before MON took over and we started to move up the table, I don't think anyone had heard of Aston Villa, despite the fact that Bosnich played for us. No, don't change a thing. Would Liverpool stop wearing red because Arsenal and Man United do? Never. It's silly.
  17. I think, without a few more players in, we'll slip a bit. We've lost probably our best two players, and we haven't replaced them at all. I was hoping this window would take us forward, i'm now clinging onto the hope that we will finish the window with close to the quality we started with. I'm predicting 7th-9th, which would be a slip and would be disappointing considering how far we've come.
  18. He's better than Harewood. Is he happy to sit on the bench and not get paid all that much?
  19. The only time i've really found her sexy was in the transformers under the hood of the car scene. She's pretty enough without being amazing IMO. I prefer a bit more of a natural look.
  20. I'd obviously like to be competitive in the league, but I want silverware. The way we kindof let go of everything else to focus on the league then stuffed that up has left a bitter taste in my mouth.
  21. Haven't won in 2 games, and the way we've been going this season, I don't think we'll go three on the trot without a win. That said, it is Chelsea, so draw.
  22. Way, way overdue for their luck to run out.
  23. I'd rather a Spurs/Everton draw. And a crushing Arsenal loss. And ofcourse, a Villa win.
