  1. I've never seen a more selfish player in a Villa shirt. His attitude stinks as well and I'd be glad to see us cut our losses on him. I can see why we've been linked with players like Brady who at least put an effort in, which is the absolute minimum Bruce would expect.
  2. Much cheaper on Sports Direct I think if you can stomach giving Mike Ashley your custom.
  3. I wonder what the chances of this being televised are. If we had been drawn at home it was a model for TV but not so sure about at White Hart Lane
  4. Leeds (A) - D Wigan (H) - W Norwich (A) - L QPR (A) - W Burton Albion (H) - W Leeds (H) - W 13 points is my estimate
  5. Travelling over for this one and I'm a lot more concerned than I originally was when booking it. I'd take a draw all day long. 1-1 with Jedinak to get off the mark
  6. To be fair to Steve Clarke he was number 2 to a very poor manager. As Bruce's number 2 it would be a completely different story.
  7. 1. Dublin, Ireland 2. St. Patrick's Athletic 3. All the Irish players in the early 90's
  8. Personally I wouldn't touch him with a barge pole but if we do sign him I'll be happy to be proved wrong by him. Great player on the pitch - it's the other stuff that would concern me.
  9. For anyone not familiar with this lad, trust me he can play. Scored a great goal Thursday night away to Zenit and has been outstanding all season. Nothing to lose signing him on a free
  10. Filling in the corners and making it a soulless bowl like the Etihad, London Stadium etc would be a disaster imo. We've got to keep it as 4 separate stands, all of which can be improved: 1. Safe standing in the lower Holte 2. Totally ripping up the North Stand and rebuilding it in a similar style to the Holte End 3. Improving the exterior of the Trinity Road and Doug Ellis Stand 4. I'd also like to see another statue or two to commemorate legends of the past. A statue to commemorate '82, a Paul McGrath statue etc

    Gary Walsh

    Remember him totally missing the ball when trying to clear it for United against Bradford years ago and they scored from it. A mate of mine has a son who played with Hull not too far back though and he says he's a quality coach.
  12. 1-0 Villa and Jedinak to get his first goal for the club. Nice strike from the edge of the area
  13. Agree with this. It's got to be Black Sabbath or Ocean Colour Scene.
  14. Personally I don't think he can have any complaints about the ban. If he could he would have contested it. Totally petulant act and let's hope he learns from it.
  15. I'll reserve judgement on this until half time at least. Doesn't look good on paper but then again it did on Saturday and we were rubbish.
  16. Really difficult fixture this one. Reading are tough to beat on their own patch and a few weeks back I would have said a draw would be a good result. Given our predicament however, we need all 3 points (which is highly unlikely to happen)
  17. I'm more confident of a win tomorrow than I have been for any Villa game the last 18 months or so. If we play to our potential we should be putting teams like Wolves to bed comfortably.
  18. I think the last time I was there I just paid a quid at the door IIRC
  19. We'll still have Rudy in January and with Grealish and McCormack still around I think we can cope without Ayew and Kodjia for a few games. A positive start with a few wins in the next few weeks and that gap to 6th place will not look too big at all.
  20. Dr Tony came back home, Sailed across the ocean. Sorted out his football club, With Steve Bruce and promotion.
  21. Steve will pick the players he reckons have the best hope of getting us out of the division. Personally I wouldn't have Gabby near the team. But I don't have 4 promotions on my CV.
  22. The right appointment. Very pleased with this. Welcome Steve
  23. It's gonna be Bruce lads. Personally I'm happy. I know there's a few on here who are not but I think everyone has to agree it could have been a lot worse.
  24. Every time he's played so far he's been a poor man's Carlos Sanchez, which is something I didn't realise existed til this season.
