  1. Two sharks are sitting at the bottom of the ocean. One says: "I'm having real trouble digesting that ladder, those pipes, and those electrical wires! I tell you: that's the last time I swallow a man-hole!"
  2. Two silkworms were in a race... ... they ended up in a tie.
  3. Happy Birthday to the Marines, General... Will you be attending any of the Birthday Balls tomorrow night?
  4. Welcome to the site General... and thank you to both you and Randy! 180 degree turnarounds are rare I feel. But my opinions on Aston Villa have completely changed in such an incredibly short period of time! Over the past few years I was beginning to suspect that things were on an irreversible slide for Aston Villa. I thought we had missed opportunities in the early '90s to truly cement ourselves as a big club in England. Things had become decidedly gloomy in B6. By June, I (and I feel most of the posters on the messageboard) had become clouded by apathy. However, since the summer, I have recaptured the joy of following Villa. The mood on this messageboard has completely changed. There's an air of excitement about the new direction in which our club is headed. The training at Villa Park in front of the kids was a fantastic idea! I have long argued for low ticket prices and other incentives to get kids interested in coming to Villa Park. That's the way to encourage further support at grassroots level around Birmingham. Thank you for taking the time to sign up and thank you for listening to us. Your gesture is more than just letting us know that we have a forum for our ideas to be heard, it shows us that you respect us as supporters and I, for one, feel like the club is starting to value me as a supporter. It feels like the club is actually there *for* the supporters now. What a refreshing change!!
  5. Well, I've been singing "We are unbeatable" in my office for the past three days now... and I don't want it to end We won't lose... In fact, we'll win... I'm with the Old, Farty one... victory to the boys in Claret & blue (er, white)... Up the Villa!
  6. Sneaky feeling... I'll be watching in a pub full of 'pool fans... so I bloody hope my sneaky feeling is right
  7. After I finished university I had the option of taking some jobs that paid quite well... but by golly they were boring! So I ran off to another country to do a job that pays virtually nothing but I actually enjoy. Guess which way I voted.
  8. I'm going out on a limb here... but if Randy signs up with MON tomorrow, I'm voting "thetrees" for VillaTalk poster of the year ... but if not, you're going in "the book" :evil:
  9. You don't believe me then? Multiple personality disorder?
  10. I went for Stevie G. Justification: he ain't a bad player. I wouldn't mind if Terry were capt'n either... but Gerrard's my favourite non-Villa player.
  11. For those of you that missed the Padfield interview on the radio this evening or the Neville interview on the box, you can find them here
  12. That's Lancs and limpid! Is this the mysterious 19th Consortium (from VT) that we've been hearing about?
  13. I think we should take a restraining order out on ianrobo preventing him coming within 200 yards of a bottle of champagne... ... look at what happened the last two times he popped the cork! I must say, while it all looks rather exciting, and it's great to see people so excited here on the messageboard, I'm going to wait until the signatures are signed and the new owner is 'in the shirt, on the pitch' before my hopes get raised again.
  14. I saw that too MSE... ... after viciously "chesting" Zidane in the head... Materazzi knees Zidane in the hand... and then kicks him in the elbow! Disgusting!!
  15. Ah oui M Bland... I'm not here very often any more. Sometimes I post my ridiculously optimistic posts on VT (see the "Early Birmingham City Thoughts" thread)... to quote General Melchett: "If nothing else works, a total pig-headed unwillingness to look facts in the face will see us through!" Gerrard's a good shout... but I can see it going to "England's great hope".
  16. Rooney will win both Player of the Year and Young Player of the Year.
  17. LancsVillan shares his unique brand of wit and humour with other VillaTalkers ... ah shit, wrong thread!
  18. Are you SammyD duffman? It's all making sense now... how's uni?
  19. "Ask them who'd they rather meet: you or the man who cleans the public toilets in Aberdeen... they'd go for Wee Jock Poo-Pong McPlop every time" Blackadder for me!
  20. I thought Oliver Stone shot JFK? ... and he shot Nixon too! :shock:
  21. Road Runner. Every episode was exactly the same... but it still made me laugh. (Bit like VillaTalk's threads really)
  22. "Leader of Free World" reacts to Paddy finally changing his avatar
