  1. To The tune of the House of the rising sun - The Animals

    The melody of the first four lines applies to all the villa song and repeats

    There is a ground called Villa Park

    Home of AVFC

    Its where mcgregor

    formed the greatest team in history

    The Football League was found here

    Our Historys proud and True

    Thats why we gather every week

    Cause we are claret and blue

  2. Can someone edit this to create a poll, cant seem to see how to create one! sorry

    What was your favourite goal from the wonderful day?

    1) Youngs curling side footed finish

    2) Carews glancing header

    3) Carews tap in from barrys bursting run

    4) Youngs mazy run and poaching the rebound

    5) Gabis low drive that out foxed the blue fools

    EDIT: I have added a poll for you :winkold: - ahamaad

  3. calzaghe by ponts

    dont know much about boxing but over the last couple of months my mates have got me to watch the bigger fights and this seems to be quite a close fight so im goin points!

  4. I know it's been posted on here before but it really is the best song for him:

    'You are my Barry

    My Gareth Barry

    You make me happy when skies are grey

    So **** your Lampard, and Steven Gerrard

    And please don't take my Barry away'

    He's our captain and we haven't even got a song for him

    really like this, very simple and would quickly catch on due to the humour

  5. anyone but man united. i hate everyhting sbout them. i know they play the best football etc but its there fans that just get me. You see so many ppl there with digital cameras i want to smah them!! thye seem to me the perfect example of heartless and soulless club, i know football these days is a buissness but i just cant stand them, they lack a culture and personality to me.

  6. well my best tip is to buy pork chops, cheap and easy. Before cooking snip the spine of fat along the side into seperate little cubes (but still attached!) and rub into the fat a good pinch of salt this way when it cooks it wont pull on and mis shape the meat causing un even cooking. The pan fry for a few minutes either side then stand up on the fat for the final few minutes. it will give off a load of fat and flavour the meat and provide very tatsty fat!

  7. Head to toe in Claret and Blue

    Carew Carew

    Bullies defenders and goalies too

    Carew Carew

    He's 6ft 5 and from Norway

    We flock each week to see him play

    And we all know Big Johns the man to score our goals

    Na nana na na na na naaah na na naaahh na naaaaah

    to the tores tune? would work really well, gonna pass this onto my mates

  8. Hi General, i didnt recieve an answer to my previous question so i was wondering i you could PM me some contact details for someone invoved with Villa in the community. I will graduate in the next couple of months and will be conducting a placement with WBA again and would love to arrange a placement at villa to add to my experiance and gain more insight into working with the community.

  9. hi General this question may seem a little strange and im not trying to criticise i hope you understand

    im a public policy student about to graduate from Birmingham University. I have a keen interest in community engagement stratergies and how large organisations may improve the lives of citizens for both parties benefits and connect with those the state may fail to help.Ii about to undertake a placement i have arranged with WBA fc looking at how they do this. They have one of the largest community outreach programmes in the whole of european football. Not bad for a championship side. They spend a great deal of time and money helping educate local children through football activites mixed with education and life skills, with participation usually tied to school attendance. The FA recognise and often promote the activities of WBA as one of the most caring and effective football clubs around.

    Now getting to my question, when attempting to arrange placements for myself i couldnt find any sort of programs through villa except for the villa rockets, (wheel chair side).

    Are there structures in place andhave i missed them?

    Who could i contact regarding work placemets/ experiance?

    or are there any plans to utilise the name and reputation of aston villa?

    The involvment of Aston Villa within the community could have great benefits for local people. I understadnd it is a buisness but these programmes can help bind potential fans to the club, and also offer the chance of spotting potential players of the future

    Aston Villa is more than a football club, it is an institution that has incredible effects on those who come in contact with it and could be at the centre of a new positive birmingham and culture.

    Thanks for your time general.
