Martin Laursen: Clean sheets are a must if we want to progress into the top 5 or 6. This geezer is unreal and he is the foundation that we must build around. Davies playing alongside Martin Laursen will hopefully make him even better in the future so Martin Laursen cannot leave and I would pay him want he wants tbh.

Have an XTC instead and report back in 3 hours

All those questions and more were answered with drinking and smoking but because they can't see a way to earn out of it they can't be arsed, I suppose the down side is kids get shot on the streets because drugs priices are inflated by the law. Another reason they won't do it I suppose is that it will always justify tax rises to pay for the Police to catch people selling drugs that they set the price for....I think it's all a bit weird tbh.

I bet you a lot more people had a day off this week due to drink than XTC ! You can get pills tested on the streets in Amsterdam for quality, no problems. People just jump on the anti-drugs band wagon because it's the easy argument, ban it, ban them, ban banning....etc.....it's all a bit sad. There is a lot less wrong with XTC if you compare it too drinking or smoking, IMO.

"Fatwah for Mister Wardle!" Got to say that is quality, real lol stuff.

Nah, Imagine if you are E.T and you got a small heath family to control you would start again I think as you would never find them a job so no furniture etc (mirrors real life a bit too closly) .Depends on the version of SIMS I suppose.

I have had 1 on demo at work for a day or so.........There is a lot of things it can't do compared to a N95 for example so I won't be getting one, even with the discount i get at work.

Top half 8th - 10th only because I can't see us beating the big teams (again). Ars / Liver / manure there's 18 points there up for grabs but using history as a guide what will we actually get from these games : 3 points I think and that is the main problem. I know that new players will come in but even then our squad is still too small if we get a few long term injuries in October we are Donald ducked.

To be fair Rich this was the only hope we had at the time, swirling around in a pit of Ellis made despair the kids was the ONLY thing the Villa had going for it IMO. FWIW I think Moore will be a very good player, the others can go.

100 % spot on, I have been saying this for years. It's not like they play like there life depends on it. I think the whole England setup is shocking and rotten to the core and I have a sneeky feeling players are played at the request of sponsers / advertising and this puts money into the F.A. I cannot think of any other reason, it's a real poor show. I wonder if Barry would play for England if he was at manure, I think so. Maybe the teams outside the top 4 should start a break away England team that's picked on form rather than names as was said above. Any manager who can getr Rooney to play like that is a joker but maybe they just don't like the guy, I feel violent when I see him on the telly (Mcclaren).

Watching , it's, car, slow , motion, like, a , crash. re-arrange the above !

Yes :wow:

Why send a kid to Grange hill when he has a secured place at Eton ?

Logic = Yes Heart = I hate them all so much it's hard to put into words & the thought of a Villa player playing for them and coming back to us sends me cold. I understand we have better rivals these days but once they are wiped of the map once and for all I will be a lot happier. What happens f if does a goal line clearance and they come up because of it ? Not fair on Ridge IMO.

I hope he stays in Birmingham to work out a transfer or two tomorrow instead of going to Newcastle... Come on MON, give us a couple of midfielders. Agree, would spice things up I think in the last bit of the season. A bit of variety in the service to young/carew/moore/angel could be just what we need. Also sends out a good message to all : "We are AVFC, Doug's gone and we ain't messing around anymore......!"

I hate SHA and everything to do with them, some say they know SHA fans that are OK...that maybe true but in 35 years I have never meet a normal one! How can they be normal ? My hate for them never goes but these days it is always with a soft centre of pure "Pity". You see them in Brum with the blue rags on shouting at the handful of kids destoring a bus stop or something and I just shake my head, they had every oppurtunity to support a proper team that represents Birmingham but they choose the evil option based totally on being jealous and living in the huge shadow that we provide them. I thank my father for passing on the pure hatred of SHA, I was lucky there are still kids out there been born who have a future of being dragged doen to that **** hole every week. If it was not so deeply tragic it would be funny.

Do it, top top idea. Also, The Aston Villa Expressway is better than the A38 me thinks.

All good things to those who wait. For all we know we might unveil 4 or 5 players in one go !

I think it all depends on where we are in Jan, lets just say we drop down to 11th or 12th, which could happen with injuries etc then I expect a couple of cheapish players that we really need (RM or RB) for example. However..... If by some act of the football god's we are still in 4th then I would expect and WANT us to shell out big time and try and get us Champ league next year and properly go for it after xmas with 2 Big names and 2-3 higly rated. Why not try if we are in a position to do so. We could wait until next year and hope to be in 4th but if we are there a year early we must capitalise on this and show we mean business. We need to get out of the Everton and Bolton bracket and move into the Manure, Chelski section as soon as we can. Ok I maybe dreaming somewhat but I think you can see what I am getting at. Small heathen " Who you got next week ?" Villa " Barcalona away, now f*&^ off to your away game at Southampton you inbred" I just want to say it a year early that' all and who can blame me for that ?

Born in Sutton Coldfield , but I see what you mean......like. :oops: I agree but it's been so long in coming, it feels like waiting for xmas when I was a nipper, finally get to the big day only to find out that I have got no battery's for my new toy and I must wait until the shops open ( bit like this tranfer window business I suppose). Hopefully, I was just watching the passing and movement last night and some of it was unreal, fast first touch stuff that is a joy to watch, shame the game last night was being played by girls falling over which kinda spoiled it. That is where I want to see the Villa both in the quality of the teams but also in that stadium. Hardly heard the chelski glory hunters but I bet 10 k of Villa v's 90k of barca, you would still hear us on the telly (proper fans you see). I dunno, one day soon we will all be there waiting for the Villa to come out in the champ league semi final : - You can all tap me on the shoulder and say "See, told you! here we are kid". We will get there I'm sure, the Villa has given a lot more to footballl than we have ever taken out - payback time. I was gonna say rant over but that's all behind us now, not a rant but more typing as I think and feel about the mighty AVFC. Up The Villa

Fair point, but you seem to know what I'm getting at. Watching the Barca game last night was brill but it don't half make me a greedy git. Sitting there thinking to myself " 25 Million, go on randy you have loads of money. Buy him ...and him ...and he would do a job for us". Basically I wanted to buy half the players on the pitch. I just want us to be good again and quick quick. Breaks my heart that scum like Manure, Chelsea or Arsnel are always on the telly or in the papers, after 24 years it's starting to get on my tits like.

Ok, quick question : Most teams know that Milner is available and can leave in January so why have Manure, Chelski or Arsnel not come in for him ? If he such a good talent I would expect competition but there appears to be none, which worries me. Should we not be going after the players that the big 3 go for as that is where we want to compete in the near future ?

I agree, once this is done I think we are nearly there chaps....... Not getting too carried away, but I wonder what it's going to be like.......New Manager, New owner maybe it will be like coming out of a dark dark coma type thing or something.

Could it be (***Clutching at straws***) that a buyer has been found and negotiations have been going well ie. Elies may have dropped his asking price to a realistic number and things have progressed to a point where the new owner(s) have set some things in stone that must happen. The removal of DOL for one which would be a stumbling block as he can't manage a footie team but also if the papers are accurate then it seems the VIlla found between 0.5 and 1.5 Million to get rid of DOL which we haven't got !!!. Then we get that weird statement to the stock exchange again. The ammount of ***t us fans have had to put up with in the last week I am trying to find a chink of light in a very dark tunnel, a tunnel so huge and vast in dimensions it could belong to Jade Goody, I say this because a lorry driver just asked directions out of it. He admitted it was his fault as he had been down this road many times before only to find out Herber had been running around turning the lights of again.

I'll save Chris the trouble....
