  1. Not overly concerned. A bit of attitude is good and as long as he's scoring goals it's all good.

     

     

    Ye, I think I remember in the sunderland game (i think) he kept trying stuff and flopping... second half finished on a hat-trick, so I thought.. can't say anything then :) Score 3.. kinda shuts us up!

  2. He was one of our best players, saved our skin and is reduced to this. I wish him all the best. Whatever happened behind closed doors is between him and PL (assuming that's the root cause, as it seems to be).

     

    Apparently PL has a plan, which almost had us relegated. I still have faith in the plan but his handling and disrespect of one of our stars (at the time) was not good, and a gamble.

  3. Yep, I imagine it's to do with the internets, the youtube videos spawning countless news items which can affect any transfer activity the club are working at. The power of the web is such that new controls have to be considered which may affect stuff that we've been doing for decades as par for the course, like this signing and meeting players stuff. It sucks but if it's affecting any business that is going on, you can bet they will consider these kind of measures. Especially given we have a number of transfers that need to happen to clear the books and possibly open the way for new blood, you can bet they don't want anything jeopardising any progress. 

     

    Probably once things have calmed down and there's less room for problems, ie during the season / when 99% are settled and going nowhere, then they'll lift it. I doubt they'd want to shut the kids out on purpose especially as they work fairly hard to encourage the kids to be a part of the club.

  4. It's not a local derby, it's the baggies. Have you noticed it's been moved to 8pm on the 25th?

     

    ;) The boggies are actually closer to us than small heath tho no? ;)

     

    Also, if you get a ticket with the tesco's.. then you're probably ok as long as you stay quiet. It can be tough. I sat in the Kop at Anfield on opening day of the league a few seasons back and we won 3-1 i think... of 20 of us there, half were Villa fans... it was hairy at lunchtime going to the loos as hidden under my hoodie was my villa shirt...well tucked away. After the match the hoody came off and the security were sound, actually really good laugh. 

     

    But I'm never happy when a load of away supporters get in the Holte so I was a bit naughty then but it was what it was and I kept quiet. In the main areas it's not so hardcore and you'd be fine as long as you keep quiet when we smash them 14-0

    I only signed up last week so some aren't available to me. But it's pretty cool still. And going forward the list available to me will just keep improving

  6. So... who do you think will take over from Tekkers when he eventually/finally goes? ;)

     

    Don't panic by the way. I just don't expect more than a season more. I don't mind if he wants to keep banging goals in season after season for us though. But just in case... and you guys like to talk... so here it is!

  7. Was going to re=follow him on Twitter but his account doesn't seem to exist anymore.

    he never had a twitter account - the one you are thinking of was a parody.

     

    he is on twitter... @bentekechris20

     

    If i wasn't posting via a virgin media superhub, you'd have got that message faster

  8. This is really awesome. Also, I'd like to point out bentekes agent has gotten it right. Maybe he knows what he's doing...

    And gotta give credit to Sylla too right?

     

    I imagine he knows what he is doing for himself, then CB, then as a knock on us fans

  9. And yes... if yer man stays and plays his best then good. I won't boo the fool for his idiotic transfer request IF he stays and plays a blinder this season. He will have added pressure to perform if he stays and the WC year is great for us as it is further incentive for him to do so. His agent is probably just trying to maximise his own wealth and stomach line. And keep stretch trousers in business

  10.  

     

     

     

     

    What was he doing in Sutton Coldfield town centre anyway? I can't imagine it much of a shopping experience.

     

    i have no idea where that is tbh

     

     

    It's basically the biggest town near the training ground, it has most of the usual shops for a town centre. And Sutton Coldfield (mostly and arguably) is where many footballers and wealthier people live. Loads of AV players live or have lived a few minutes drive from where that photo was taken

     

    Most Villa players live here, as well as our former owner and President Emeritus (don't we know it!)

    You see a good lump of West Brom players around, as well as the odd Wolves one.

    I believe that both a former and the current England manager are still in residence.

    It has a Porsche dealership that appears to live off the back of footballer's desire to change their cars often. White Panameras and cheap second hand Cayennes are in abundance!

     

    And the town centre is crap!

     

    (I live at the poor end!)

     

    Pretty much sums it up! I meant to say most ;) but some are in stourbridge and newer ones get lodged at the mailbox and a few are dotted around brindley place. I used to see Carlos a fair bit on a friday around tesco five ways. Had a few chats with him. Met Angel at his house too. A friend lived at the house directly behind (aka gardens bordering) southgate or townsend, forget which. Maybe both over the years :S Anyway.. what he said :)

    Yet another opportunity for an ITK to show their face. Come on! Someone must be up a tree somewhere at BMH or stalking `Sid` for an exclusive.

     

    Where is MM when you need him?

     

    Clearly not one of the ITKs can even confirm a player being at BHM today. Jokers the lot of them

    Are there any ITKs on here any more? It feels like a long while since I saw anything from any of them.

     

    I mean anywhere really. Usually some know it all claims to know.. :) Instead all i've seen is the usual rehashing speculation :)

  14. Hope he's experiencing a bit of brummie hospitality with an internal examination at BHX........here's hoping;-)

    They would as well. I've had my bags turned out and examined there. Not a euphemism.

  15. He'll show up tomorrow, walk into the locker room, see Jores Okore's smile, and be some overcome with joy that he signs a new 4 year deal. It's going to be a good day.

    That'd be a result. We'd get another season out of him :)
