  1. I fast forward MOMS about 15 minutes, avoids all the nonsense and then there's some good Villa chat. 1874 was absolutely dire. Greg has roughly the same enthusiasm and knowledge of Villa as my girlfriend (none). Listening to him moan on is a chore. In the Villa View season review on YouTube there's a kid on there along with two other "experts". He came across so well - articulate, thorough and clearly studied Villa and the game intensely. Not sure his name but if he did a pod I'd listen often!
  2. Our Claret Memberships have arrived and we have loads of goodies! A beanie. A massive sticker. A keyring. A poster. So, maybe not loads, but I'm looking forward to putting the sticker on the shop window of the far right loving Bluenose fan in Shrewsbury.
  3. Some of the comments in the Carney topic have made my skin crawl. I've seen people wishing him a "short career". VT has some horrendous people in its boards.
  4. Which is why you don't visualise the problem.
  5. The vitriol aimed at a player, an 18 year old player, for not signing a contract speaks volumes for those wishing him ill or insulting him. In addition, you understand people have broken contracts / threatened to strike to join Villa before (Benteke), or wound down contracts to then join Villa for free (Kamara). Its absurd. Have a **** word with yourself.
  6. This entire post is the psychotic rambling of a serial killer who left a trail of Illuminati propaganda after each murder.
  7. Phillipe Coutinho cost less than Carney Chukuemeka. Peter Andre wrote a song about this. (Its called "Insania").
  8. Official confirmation of what?
  9. Summer transfer business is currently selling their best player and buying two players from relegated Burnley. (And not even Burnley's best player, Cornet, who they also wanted but could agree personal terms with).
  10. If it's a topic of things never seen before, I just saw a Guardian rating the top 10 Neighbours characters of all time. Susan Kennedy #1 if you're interested. (We really need to lock this up).
  11. Fans will go bat shit kray again, no?
  12. It'll be a Pooper League without Bayern, PSG, Ajax and the English teams. So a moot point.
  13. I was thinking this. They want new owners. Are those new owners also expected to pay the hundreds of millions of pounds the club is contracted to be paying for the new stadium? They're just like United fans. The board are providing money, but those spending it are like Steve Bruce at a right back warehouse.
  14. This is the Gabby argument over, and over and again. "Gabby's a legend because he's our top Premier League Goalscorer". Yeah mate, he scored 60 goals in six million appearances. As for Ollie, of, ****, course he's the only striker to score double figures in last two seasons. He's the only one we have at the club who has been here two seasons, Keinan doesn't count. I think Ollie has regressed. But he has some credit left in the bank from season one. If he's still shit after 10 games though, it's the bench for you my friend.
  15. This is offensive to my eyes. Must have taken 10 minutes to formulate and write this, find a better use for your time homey.
  16. I agree completely with you. But, he was never dropping Watkins. So then it's Ings, Watkins, Bailey, Buendia, Traore et al and we get absolutely smashed defensively. The signing didn't work because the manager tried to shoehorn them both into a team and couldn't find a viable way of doing it. I fear that managers replacement is doing the same thing.
  17. If McGinn gets it, I dont know how to react. (It won't be positive).
  18. The signing would have made perfect sense if Deano had a formation and the correct players ready and prepared to accommodate Ings in the system to allow the team to flourish. They didn't. It was a ridiculous signing. I would be very surprised if this was a Lange recommendation.
  19. This is complete conjecture. "Transformed Aston Villa"? From what to what? A club that couldn't sign players from Seville and Everton to one that now can? Until those two have, (three if including Coutinho) have achieved something meaningful, to suggest Villa have been transformed is hyperbole beyond hyperbole.
  20. Of all the things on Earth that are quite obvious, Watkins being in our front three is definitely not one of them. Buendia, has to start. 100%.
  21. No we didn't. But that wasn't what you stated earlier and what I replied too.
