Always worn SMALL MENS except 11/12 as Nike fooked up the sizes so I squeezed into a large boys (bonus of having no shite sponsor). Looks like this time I'll be forced to go down to an under 5s kit based on these sizes. Oh well, at least no sponsor and kit will be even cheaper!

Yep that sounds much better, + the harmony bit very good. HASTEN! LOL :oops: :oops: :oops:

Here's something I just wrote after reading this thread for a bit of fun. Please feel free to criticise and pick it to pieces. It is vague I suppose you might say but then a statement cannot be too long. At least it occupied 10 mins of my time! In view of the protracted sequence of poor results, not least the worst home record in our entire 138 year history, Aston Villa supporters hereby respond to the official statement put out by Messrs Lerner & Faulkner on the 25th April. Our opposition to managerial decisions made at board level have been consistent since June of last year. Despite our widespread misgivings about the appointment, our relationship with the current Aston Villa manager has always been cordial. Which is why, displays of dissatisfaction have been overwhelmingly respectful, Tuesday night perhaps being an exception in this regard. With absolutely no sign of things improving, and three critical games to play to secure our 20 years Premier League status, we would like to re-emphasise our support for the team during this difficult period. When the Premier League season has concluded, hopefully with Aston Villa still being a part of that, we desire two outcomes. A) The club’s results and performances this season will be closely scrutinised and decisive action taken to hasten the continuing depreciation of ‘Villa’ as a team, club and brand. The club will look at, what is now perceived by many, to be a very distant relationship between the supporters and those at board level.

I hate this song (no offense) it just reminds me of Luis Suarez. I can't concur, look forward to singing it.

Good luck with it, my personal fave aways are Everton & Liverpool. Nice old grounds and I like the pubs, Arkles and the wetherspoon aint bad either, no animosity. Blackburn was always good but I dunno what it's like now as the Fernhurst is shut. Fulham is good if you fancy something a bit more upmarket, nice selection of boozers. Stoke City are animals! UTV

If, and it's a big if, Lerner ever redevelops the North Stand I'd like to think some kind of AV lighting arrangement could be done with the floodlighst beaming down from that stand. A gable like the old Trinity Road one wouldn't go amiss on that side also.

I often read mention of this guy, and the only one that I think fits the era is the chap sitting behind the corner flag here, next to his dad. Is this to whom you refer? Yeah he does still go down. I believe he frequents the Sty also occasionally. His collection of masks have given him infamy that he enjoys, bless him.

Glenn Hoddle!

I dunno how you can think like that mate. Relegation is a damgerous game, we could then be in the Championship for 10 years! Getting out of that league is as much to do with mental toughness/ability as it is to do with talent of the squad. I'd be suicidal if we went down, I thankfully think we'll survive by the skin of our teeth!

we had something like just one team that finished top 6 in 10/11 in our first 12 games of the season. We should have been well in the mix with a 1/3 of the season gone............but this shite manager messed it up. :-(

It wasnt ALL down to the signing of Heskey, but that January 2009 was the most crucial transfer window for the club. I remember leading up to it on these forums, people were saying if we can just buy a decent striker, we will get 4th ahead of Arsenal. There was talk of Darren Bent, Huntelaar and a Luca Toni, but in the end we got Heskey. If we had sóf signed Bent or someone of the same quality, I think we would of held of Arsenal and got 4th. The gap was only 7 points in the end. The current mess the club in, is not all down to Heskey, but that is a big factor. The most important transfer window in the clubs history, and the club got it horribly wrong. Isnt obvious that by then Lerner wasnt prepared to invest in the likes of Bent etc? Heskey was a terrible buy but you cannot assume that money was available for better. But the money that the club spent after that period suggests the money was there. Surely they could see Heskey was not the answer. Yes clearly so.

C'mon I don't even believe you yourself believe what you've just typed there! Given out league standing in that January transfer window and our aim seemingly being close to fruition..+ what want on in the following summer where we spent again...I think we all know that O'Neill could have broke the bank and bought in a £15 million ilk striker had he so wished.

Were waiting till everyones got there tickets sorted it's that simply obviously we want the whole group together nothing to do with secrecy just purely wanted to be together in the block! ok bud fair enough.

I don't know why don't just announce where you'll be sitting. No idea why this group feels the need to do things in secrecy. This plus obscuring your faces in pictures, you only wave flags, hardly think you need to cover yourselves up for doing that! Anyway, you'll be sitting in cheaps seats, so you'll either be sitting in L8 or upper K1 or scattered along the front of the lower Holte stand. Seeing as you wanna be noticed it won't be L8. It's therefore a toss up between front of the stand and K1! UTV

He seems like too much of a luxury in anything other than a 5 man midfield IMO.
