  1. Having been finally worn down by my kids... (and also wanting my kids l look the part in their new kits...!!!) I spent a small fortune of £150 on 2 children's kits .... I must say I think the new Macrob designs are really really smart.... However the quality of the shirts is appalling.... I have had to return the away shirt 3 times this week due to small 'pulls' in the material... The home shirt is also pulled, but it doesn't show up as badly as the home shirt for some reason... However I digress.... There is no way I am going to accept the shoddy quality, so if it means that I have to return it weekly to get a new top then that's what I'll do.... It'll end up costing he club more in the long run... I guess the moral of my little moan is that the club have sacrificed quality by using Macron.... Which is a real shame as the kits do look nice.....
  2. Anywhere in Sutton which shows it ??
  3. Rumours are circulating in Manchester that Beckham is in the frame.... I don't believe it either, but then again I never thought that we would get McLeish... And the FA record of picking good managers is on a par with Randy's.... 50-1 at sporting bet.. Worth a tenner
  4. Houllier for me.... He's never got a team relegated....
  5. ^^^^^^^ that just signifies this board and their empty promises to me.. I don't recognise it as belonging to my Villa... And hope that when the incumbents running the club into the ground inevitably leave, we return to a badge that we remember and signified success... A round badge with the words ASTON VILLA on will once again emblazon our shirts General... Please leave and take your uncommunicative boss with you
  6. General Why have the people who signed off this kit design agreed that Royal Blue socks actually go with this kit... ? In my opinion they look out of place and personally would rather have light blue.. Id like to ask other questions... but given that other people have already asked so many, questioning both yours and Randy's integrity I'll refrain for now.... However there is so much testosterone in existence on this thread I'll refrain... I also think that you and Randy are like rabbits in the headlights, and don't really know how to manage conflict or expectations of the fans, I wouldn't believe a word that comes from your mouths.... Let me know via a pm when you will be at the club, and I'll gladly come to villa park and tell you why I feel this way.... The Cleveland browns recent successes (this is ironic English humour) are a testament to your stewardship... So please, pass the reigns back to Doug... he had his faults, but he cared... You and Randy don't, please leave before you ruin my club
  7. Dear General This has probably been posted on numerous occassions, and gets repeated year on year... however I would appreciate a comment as to whether you think the prices of Replica shirts are a fair price. For Example... I have a 3 & 5 year old... who I would love to deck out in replica kits... however I am absolutely astounded to find out how much it will cost me to kit them both out in the 2011/12 kit.... £46.95 each (including their name and number on the shirt) Do you consider these prices to be value for money... or do you agree with me that this is excessive pricing...? Either way, my kids will not be wearing Villa Kits as these prices are a complete rip off.... and yes, I am aware that the market is also charging similar amounts for other shirtsd... however I had hoped (blindly) that we would look to encourage our junior fans to wear the shirt... Would appreciate your views.
  8. Still no response General to any comments... Says it all really, I thought you would at least have the balls to exlain your rationale. But no, you will no doubt leave it a few days, hope the storm blows over and come out with the usual BS about how you actually care etc Well guess what... This won't blow over... Even if McLeish wins the double, we will never forgive or forget the contempt which you have treated us with. For the record I will still support the team, because it's my team.... But I will never back you or any other member of this board.., such a shame as I like most Villa fans were taken in by your propaganda... You've let us down... I think you military types call it desertion
  9. Dear General It is with a heavy heart, and great regret that I wish to give notice of my intention to terminate my support for you and the board. Due to the contempt in which you and the Chairman have treated my colleagues and I over the last few weeks, I feel I have no other option but to watch events unfold at the once great Villa Park from afar. Under normal circumstances I would offer my best wishes to you and the business, but due to the lack of mutual respect shown by the board I regret I cannot wish you luck. I sincerely hope that you and your colleagues depart from my beloved club and leave it to real football people who don't proport to listen and act on fans feedback. Yours A Talbot
  10. Dear General Randy, Faulkner and you have sold us out... I know you like your Latin quotes... So please translate this Et tu Brute... Now, please sell up and leave Thank you
  11. Hi General.... Could you please confirm that the quote attributed to you was actually from you... http://tinyurl.com/3n7nx6w Mods... Please dont delete this... it is not directly linked to the Management situation, I would like to hear the Generals views in a safe environment where we know comments attributable to his name are actually his comments. Firstly, I would hope that following previous 'Pigs in Mud' remarks you would not again inflame the relationationship with our neighbours by making derogatory remarks again.... But if these remarks are directly attributable to you, I would like to ask the following: Firstly I (and most people) will accept your comments concerning the fact that you are neither confirming or denying rumours. You state that you are a fan and you understand the fans, what we stand for etc.... if this is the case, you would understand that our objections to the named candidate are fourfold... (1) The fact that he HAS overseen 2 relegation campaigns, despite financial backing from his Club... he continually picked substandard players (Cameron Jerome) despite having proven quality in his squad (Kevin Phillips) (2) His style of football is more akin to Sunday League football... long ball kick and rush football (3) What qualifies Sir Alex to judge a managers ability... has he ever chosen a manager for his club,.....? (4) We as lifetime fans of this club are not missing the point... local rivallry cuts deep amongst both sets of fans, and to take a manager with a track record of relegation rather than success shows that you and the board are the ones missing the point, and are sadly not as close to the culture and fans views as you espouse that you are. If these remarks are not from you, I apologise for the direct nature of my comments and questions... however in a culture of free speech, I would like to take my and offer you your right to reply. Many thanks
  12. Because Merson has a great track record with betting and drinking....
  13. 13 days since Houllier's Resignation confirmed..... the board have know about this situation for a good deal longer than this..... Meaningless holding statement from Paul Faulkner Usual 'We're not conducting our business in public' abd 'you've got to trust ' rhetoric from the General Talk (albeit papertalk and Sky BS) that we are after McLeish..... No news on Sponsors No news of the new kit I'm beginning to get bored of this Agent Lerner anyone.....
  14. Its McLeish. Based on what exactly.....?
