    Hi General.

    Big thumbs up to the ticket office staff. Ordered my Reading tickets yesterday at 5pm via the website and I was fully expecting to have to pick them up at the Ticket Collection point before the game but to my surprise they arrived through my letterbox this morning. Great service!

    Keep up the good work General.

    Really sad to see that idiots trashed the toilets. That type of thing is completely pathetic. It means Villa fans will suffer with heavy policing at future games, that the club suffers in terms of reparation costs, our reputation suffers.

    Utter, utter, braindead w*nkers.

    indeed.

    feckin loo-sers ..... :winkold:

    yeah...completley potty....

    I assumed it was a motorbike tailing Hammond?

    Nope, it was a hatchback with the door at the back opened. You even saw it on two or three occasions. Watch the repeat if you dont believe me!

    i thought it was a motorbike because theres a scene when Hammond is going through a tunnel and you can see the front of the motorbike trailing alongside him

    GENERAL Charles Krulak did not apologise to David Gold over the 'pig in mud' affair, according to the Birmingham City chairman.

    Gold has been left aghast at Randy Lerner's claim that General Charles Krulak apologised to him over the 'pig in mud' affair.

    The Blues chairman said the letter written to him by Lerner's right-hand man in the aftermath of the controversy was anything but contrite.

    Gold said he would welcome Lerner and Krulak to St Andrew's on Sunday for the Blues-Villa derby, but also take them to task over the issue that has refused to die down.

    "To be honest, what this General wrote to me was not an apology but a load of waffle," Gold told the Birmingham Mail. "I have seen what Randy Lerner has said about the letter but I don't think he has actually read it himself. I'm not sure if he's aware what's going on here.

    "It was nothing like an apology, more like a justification. If General Krulak had apologised to me then I would have said 'okay, fine, let's move on'. But he hasn't and that disappoints me.

    "In the first instance I felt he was outrageous, but he has tended to get away with it Scot free. And, to be perfectly frank, I am fuming even more after what Randy Lerner said to your newspaper.

    "I am not saying that I should be sent 12 red roses. I just think this General was totally wrong to use me in that analogy and should have been big enough to realise that.

    "Instead it's been like 'hey, it's okay, don't worry about it' and people have been portraying him in glowing terms."

    Commitments in America with the Cleveland Browns gridiron team might mean that Lerner and Krulak do not turn up at St Andrew's on Sunday.

    Gold said: "Like any visiting directors, they would be granted the usual courtesy and hospitality.

    "I hope Randy Lerner does come because I have not met him and I am looking forward to making his acquaintance.

    "From what I have seen and heard, he is a decent chap and I like the way he has gone about things since he took over Villa.

    "If General Krulak doesn't come then in a way I will be pleased but on the other hand I would like to confront him and talk to him face-to-face and tell him how I feel and that we are all in this together.

    "I feel I have been an orchestrator of good relations and behaviour between our clubs over the last 15 years and then this guy comes from nowhere and insults me.

    "I don't want there to be any bad blood between Birmingham City and Aston Villa but, in this instance, I feel aggrieved. I have been insulted and I don't deserve it.

    "I have had nothing in the way of an apology, so how does all that work out?"

    Krulak made his comment on a fans' internet message board, responding to questions about Blues charging a top price of £45 for the derby, revealed just as Gold spoke out about his 'vision' of Premier League clubs reducing admission.

    He replied: "Not sure what Mr Gold is after other than publicity. When you get down in the mud and wrestle with a pig, the pig loves it - and you get muddy. I think I will just let him to continue to talk."

    Gold added: "I will admit, if we beat Villa on Sunday I will derive extra pleasure from it."

    Hi General. Just wanna report on abit of nonsense concerning catering in the Holte End. Before the game I bought a Balti Pie & a bottle of Carlsberg. Now this falls under the 'combo 5' deal for £5. However, the girl on the till tried to charge me £5.30. When I bought up the discrepancy she told me that you need to ask for the 'combo meal 5' deal when ordering. Surely this shouldn't be the case??

    Just thought I'd bring the issue up.

    Keep up the good work General - much appreciated :D
