  1. I agree, although in fairness, the same could apply to quite a few posts in the EU thread! Let's wait and see.
  2. 6 days on, so hopefully your sons card has arrived. My wife's card arrived 10 days after my son's and my cards. An adult with the same surname so no logic for the different arrival times. I suppose provided it arrives a week before the first home game there's no need for concern.
  3. Without decent results, I think the amount of paper tickets sold will be massively down on the Premier League seasons so even with 20k season cards, and a couple of thousand away fans, I wouldn't be surprised to see crowds as low as 26k. I'm hoping for good results and a positive vibe at Villa Park (when was the last time we had that?!), that could regularly see crowds of 30k+.
  4. Guzan was a decent keeper but we all know his confidence is shot at Villa so I think it's best for all that he moves on. I don't know if he'll ever get his mojo back at another club but I really don't think he'll get it back at Villa.
  5. Transfer dealings aren't as simple as many people think. For all we know, Gana wouldn't have signed if there wasn't a relegation release clause. Perhaps we offered a £9m release, Gana's agent insisted on £5m and we negotiated £7m. Without all the facts it seems unnecessary to brand anyone as jokers.
  6. Is this was is known as a 'Scouser'?
  7. Micah is a winner and a born leader so he deserves to be playing at one of the top clubs, like Sunderland.
  8. It's known as 'tethering'. The pull of 'tethering' is strong enough to force aircraft to keep circling the airport, just like a dog tied to a post. The solution is to very gradually close together the two screens of the DS. A sudden disconnection of 'tethering' can result in a slingshot effect causing the aircraft to be launched into space. We live in worrying times. When I flew back from Paphos last week, I got footage on my phone showing the aircraft was actually being piloted by Pikachu.
  9. If their owner was British and really should have recognised Saville from the photo, then it would be embarrassing for them, not for me. As Tony isn't expected to recognise infamous British sex predators, it's not embarrassing, it's just a poor taste practical joke.
  10. Our owner didn't though. Did Tony wish someone's uncle happy birthday and not realise the photo was of Saville, or did he actually wish happy birthday to a dead sexual predator? There's a big difference! Chinese culture is one of the few areas that Saville hasn't touched (!), so why should Tony be expected to know who Saville was or what he looked like? Even if you think Tony should have someone filtering his social media, why were you embarrassed? Only two people should be embarrassed by it. One of them is dead and the other has closed his Twitter account.
  11. Unfortunately for us and Rudy there will be a few semi-decent defenders in the Championship and they'll most likely be playing for the clubs we need to compete with for promotion. It is still difficult to ignore Rudy's recent successful record in the Championship but I hope RDM will know when to use him and the occasions when a change in attack is needed.
  12. Do you mean the ceramic chop sticks rest that everyone around the table appears to have?
  13. Strangely, I've received mine (adult) and my son's (under 21) but the missing season card is my wife's (adult). I'll ring up the ticket office if it's not arrived in a week or so.
  14. Two out of my three season cards arrived this morning. As they were all ordered at the same time, I assume the third season card will arrive early next week.
  15. I think more people can see those three in another Chinese institution.
  16. Formula One radio rules are set to be released as a parlour game.
  17. As one who struggles beyond Smith and Jones, I have settled for Toshiba. Betamax was ace in 81.
  18. Well that British GP was fairly boring.
  19. Tantamount to a signed contract. Welcome A. A. Ron. Don't follow Jack.
  20. Sorry SGC, I was just having a bit of fun and hoping VT qualifies as 'the Internet'.
