S-Platt

Will be needed against the human cyborg Wednesday.  Think he enjoys the physical challenge so should be a good match up like the home game against Cheaty.

He was all about his pace, the way he could make runs in behind to the byline and lay it back into the box was deadly.

He’s 31 now and coming off a bad hamstring injury, if that electric pace is not coming back he’ll not be the same player anymore. 

It could be he is not trusting his body like Bailey until this season.  Don't write him off yet.

The word super is doing a lot of heavy lifting there. 

The super D W Stadium Wigan. The super Pride Park stadium Derby. 

Tinpot Park more like.

If you can't sell out 28k what hope you got with 60k

NFL and Concerts maybe.

It does add to the frustration ever so slightly about the paused/shelved North Stand plans.

We really do need to bring VP up to standards.

Not really let's see the plans first before we get rattled  

Not watching as have the Wales game on but if we do have an attacking line up and are conceding twice I am guessing that will mean Safegate gets even more cautious when it matters  

3 train stations Aston, Witton and Perry Barr are all on the same line.  Does not help with crowded trains.

They need to extent the metro really to help with the numbers if we stay at Villa Park.

I kind of agree, but Spurs have done a great job of not letting this stadium acquire a name up until now, it's just generally referred to as Tottenham's new stadium.

Yeah agreed but whoever it is will need to be in it for the long run.  I am guessing 10 years plus.

Hopefully it's a daft name so we can all laugh.

Another clean sheet for Emi last night in a 3-0 win over El Salvador.

They will announce who's bought the naming rights for the stadium sometime in the beginning of May apparently. That's land them a pretty penny.

See for me naming rights have to be done when the stadium is opened as it sticks.  Bolton play at the Reebok for me, Stoke at The Brittania.  Arsenal will always be The Emirates now even if someone takes over sponsorship same at The Etihad.  Its a one shot deal.

Whoever brought in the £30 for away tickets needs to have a look at home ticket prices.

Maybe they need to take away the cost of match tickets from any PSR calculation. Afterall a 15k capacity cannot compete with a 75k capacity. 

The financial levels teams work to need to be fairer we all agree its weighted to the help the top teams.

Milking your long standing fan base is wrong need to find that sweet point.

Yeah, without Eustace they would probably be below Rotherham.

Eustace Villa Fan, Rowett Villa Fan yet they don't need any help from that lot down the road  

They need to invest in Jamaican Football it seems Leon not happy with the unprofessional set up.

Post season friendlies anywhere are insanely stupid. Have the big exhibition matches in July fine, but end of May is **** stupid. Why would any player want to bother with it? You'd be all ready for holiday mode and then asked to play in those games. Insane. I'd be mad if we did that. Not sure how any fan could argue its anything but stupid

I agree but the slimey HR people will argue you are contracted to play for us whenever we like!  Contracts normally run to June 1st I believe so even those out of contract cannot flip them the bird legally!

Invested in both player issue from a contact in China really nice have them already and saved £200  

Forest got 6 points reduced to 4 as they co-operated. Seems Everton did not first time.  If they have for the 2nd breach should be another 4.

If you excuse Johnson, they’ve only had about £20-30m in sales since they came up and spent £250m. The excuse to hold out for more money for Johnson simply doesn’t wash. I'm glad that was dismissed. But the punishment is far too light still. 

The rules are daft if you have a window to buy and sell players then surely the window for showing your PSR figures should be at the end of any transfer window.  June 30th seems wrong to me.

Only just noticed he got a call up proves what Safegate has done to England that nobody bothers these days.

However fairplay to Ezri he certainly deserves it.

The Don, The Sultan of Unai on page 2 not on my watch!

Needs to be a sticky the man deserves it.

You learn more in defeat than in victory so whatever happens we will be stronger for it mentally or financially.

It's bloody exciting all we can do as fans is get behind the boys.

Give him a run at center forward if Watkins is injured.

You've got to admire the Premier leagues ability to pick a game not to televise.

 

Blame the Champions League stupid rules!  Mind you I am watching it

Yes uggghhh me too. Happy and sad that I have to be happy about Arsenal going through.

They won't win it so no issues with them accruing points for the 5th spot

Are the points awarded after 90 mins? Extra time and pens seem random.
