  1. Bucket load of bitterness here about our claims to be a big club when we’re just the 1996 Coca Cola cup winners with rich ‘chinese’ owners https://www.brightonandhoveindependent.co.uk/sport/football/brighton-and-hove-albion/why-losing-yves-bissouma-to-1996-coca-cola-cup-winners-aston-villa-is-not-as-unlikely-as-it-may-sound-3525579
  2. Can’t say I really understand FFP, but am I right in thinking that next year our final season in the championship is off the books which will significantly enhance our position???
  3. True, it would have been a good match to watch...and Newcastle were so close to pulling off an upset
  4. Sounds like Thundercats is about to start
  5. The thought of signing him permanently and that it might not be our record signing is unbelievable! Just wow
  6. Nah, he's just finally getting the balls back from the Aston neighbours after Tonev's atomic strikes...
  7. Wonderful time to be a Villa fan (a long time coming). Only concern is that the 'option to buy' seems to have vanished from all reports coming out this morning. Would hate to think it's just a straight loan for 20 games...
  8. Good luck with that. I ordered a personalised keeper shirt for my daughter for her birthday. They spelt her name wrong despite it being correct on the package label. Then offered me a 10% discount to keep it. (eventually got a free replacement, now trying to get the glue off the back of the original to make it usable!).
  9. ..something along the lines of 'why would he sign for such a small tinpot club when he could join world powers like Rangers or Burnley...'
  10. The press conference was this morning....they're still translating it into English
  11. Fit again according to his Dad and available today. ....he's also going to get 25 goals this year and get us into the top four “He is adapting, he is enjoying England, he is learning England, and he is back in training now and ready to go,” Butler said. “My aim is for him to hit 25 goals this season and get his stats up, but more importantly is to adapt and to become a part of the team, understand their system of play that they are going to be using, and to utilise his skills to help the team reach the top four this season.” https://jamaica-gleaner.com/article/sports/20210828/leon-bailey-set-villa-return-today
  12. It was absolute class. You might say archer had the ball on a string
  13. Honestly didn’t get that vibe, just that those three have the abilities to cover the loss of Grealish (and a hell of a lot more different qualities too in my opinion). Doesn’t mean there won’t be other players in different positions...
  14. Agreed. Eight I think. Atkinson/Staunton/Regis/teale/Richardson/sealey/Ehiogu/ mortimer. less said about the Mortimer fiasco the better though!
  15. Well there’s been no interview with Ings yet. Maybe they’re travelling together (possibly on a delayed flight to Jamaica...yesterday’s joke seems years ago now!)
  16. His train has been delayed from south coast so probably about 1.40am...in the meantime meet the rest of his family
  17. Those knowledgeable chaps at the mail have already converted him https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/dean-smith-leon-bailey-transfer-21220362
  18. Is that Tommy Elphick's car :-)
  19. Shudder...that Doncaster 3-0 was a shocker in ineptitude I will never forget witnessing. i’ll add losing 5-0 at home to Bradford in the Simod cup 3-0 away to Coventry on Boxing Day with fatty Quinn getting a hat trick plus every time VAR cost US points last season
  20. He’s really good at football but when he’s mad he starts singing “suddenly” ... ...(sorry, showing my age, anyone else remember angry Anderson and that neighbours tune!!!!)
  21. Hope the surgeon didn’t randomly pass the blade across his back line :-)
  22. Lol, my sources tell me that one's secret signing in the bank already
  23. 1. Martinez 2. Heaton 3. Steer 4. Mings 5. Konsa 6. Engels 7. Targett 8. Guilbert 9. Cash 10. Elmo 11. Hause 12. Luiz 13. Nakamba 14. Barkley 15. Hourihane 16. Grealish 17. Traore 18. El Ghazi 19. Trezeguet 20. Davis 21. Watkins 22. Taylor 23. McGinn ...leaves Kalinic, Nyland, Lansbury, Wesley out of squad Have I missed anyone?
  24. yes that includes Lansbury, but as per previous post I missed Ross Barclay off due to avfc site not being updated!
