  1. We've been watching O'Dowda and have asked to be kept in formed!!!! Good lad who'd jump at the chance to join us. ( his exact words! )
  2. Can't stand him and want him gone ASAP. Saying that though if we can't sell him or whomever the manager is, deems him vital to our promotion bid I'll begrudgingly wipe the slate clean and get right behind him (well at least till Xmas). The atmosphere (rightly so at times) has been so toxic at Villa Park, the club need the fans to be 100% behind the team. IMO this is year zero and start hopefully of a new era. Still thinks he shit though
  3. Long shot I realise but I wonder if we could get Matt Ryan on loan. Hasn't played much since joining Valencia, highly rated at Brugge, maybe Bozzie could put a word in for us.
  4. People questioning di matteo's credentials should have a look at Ranieri's record pre Leicester.
  5. Will you go on about how we should of got Pearson if we lose and derby win? Is this something you will go on about for the next year ? I think Pearson is a massive prick and I'm glad he won't be near us, that said if he had (unfortunately) ended up here I would of got behind him 100% like I have with all villa managers.
  6. Giggs/Neville-Dwight dream team ? Anything to create a debate other than is Pearson a prick (yes!) or not.
  7. Makes sense as Naming rights deals are means tested against other deals within the league. As as we are not a prem team anymore DR X couldn't just get one of his companies to sponsor us for say £5-£10 mill per season to circumnavigate FFP or whatever it's called down there. Derby get £700'00 per season from ipro for example. Best wait to we are an established top half prem team before considering selling our history.
  8. Phil Neville ? Thought id chuck that grenade out there.
  9. We are waiting on butt-heads future to be decided before Jose gives us his decision . He fancies building something from scratch for a change !
  10. We would be lucky to get £5 million a season at a push for naming rights, West Ham are looking at only £6million per season for the Olympic stadium http://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2016/04/19/olympic-stadium-may-be-renamed-mahindra-stadium-ahead-of-west-ha/
  11. Do share,I've seen the bit about whomever buys us will have Chinese Government backing,has he said more since ?
  12. Just wildly speculating but I wonder if the potential new Chinese owners would consider buying out the under armour deal and replacing it with Chinese manufacturer Li-Ning. Not for the up coming season but the season after. Doubt UA would care about losing us and it would provide the Chinese brand an international audience. As I said just bored and speculating.
  13. Based on a book written by a committee 300 plus years after. OK ?! But that's for another thread. so back to our potential Chinese takeaway. The euphoria soon gets placed with trepidation.
  14. Jesus has been talked about for 2000 odd years doesn't mean he existed. Fantasy thinking and click bait IMO
  15. Depends on our new potential owners and their wealth and ambition. If what Hollis said is true about the potential new owners ambitions then I'd wouldn't dismiss Rodgers completely. Worth a punt @ 50-1 on William hill that's for sure. Just put money £50 down on him so watch his odds tumble!
  16. The sycophantic bullshitters over @TBAR are also claiming its Ellison with Pearson as manager signed sealed and soon to be delivered apparently
  17. So much can change so quickly in football. Can't see Rodgers having too many options this summer. Swansea seems closed off. Everton won't go near him. Poss Southampton if koeman is tempted away. Celtic ? Or the chance of rebuilding Villa in our new golden era . He seems to tick most boxes for me.
  18. I see Rodgers is being linked with WBA. Surely with new owners and with even being in the championship we are a bigger draw. He got Swansea promoted playing attractive attacking football. Did ok at Pool. And I believe he could get the best out of out attacking talent.
  19. Rodgers it seems isn't getting the Swansea job, I wonder if his ego would drop down a league if our new owner is a gazzilionaire? Would prefer him to Pearson, McCarthy, Bruce, Hughton etc by a country mile. Hard choice between him and Moyes in my eyes though.
  20. I personally hope they deviate from the standard claret body blue sleeves for a season and we get something like the new Spurs home shirt. Could someone with skillz poss do mock up ?
  21. Spurs new home shirt for next season looks pretty classy tbf. Hopefully we will end up with something similar.
  22. Has it been confirmed we will be having a second sponsor or just speculation ?
