    I did think that when I was writing out the post!

    When I was earning about the same as her a few years ago, I was paying back £15 a month. It's not really a loan in the usual sense of the word, as someone else said - if he wanted to help his daughter out, he'd have been better off investing the cost of her tuition fees into something which will earn her money in the future

    With the wage she's on, she's unlikely to be paying more than £15 or £20 a month towards her student loan, meanwhile the interest will be going up by at least £100 a month. It's monopoly money at this stage and she's unlikely to ever really notice the amount she pays back coming out of her wage packet each month.

    Would I go through all that for a League Cup? Yes, absolutely. FWIW the promotion season was the most I have ever enjoyed a Villa league campaign (for context, I'm 30, and first season I can remember is 98/99, so not a lot of joy in that time!) I did say it was an unpopular opinion. And also that I still stand by it

    I follow Derry City as my second team and try get over there for games when I can. Have quite a few Celtic fans in my family too so tend to look out for their results as well and watch quite a lot of their games. Have a soft spot for Walsall as well, as I imagine quite a lot of north Brum/black country Villa fans do

    Loved it then, love it now. So glad that the round badge won the vote, would've honestly rather kept the current badge than change to that gas lamp/shield thing.

    Beautiful goal tonight, the type you just know people will still be watching back and discussing in many years time. Like Dalian's against Wimbledon or some of Le Tissiers best hits

    I reckon Ten Hag puts on a North Yorkshire accent myself

    Eriksen is such a fantastic footballer

    My unpopular opinion at the time was that I would've accepted relegation in 19/20 of it meant winning the League Cup against Citeh. Stand by it tbh. We'd have been back before long though, wouldn't have ended up in doldrums like SHA unless NSWE **** off as a result

    Resurrect a VT thread from 15 years ago
  13. icouldtelltheworld
    Each one has more posts in this thread alone, than I've managed across the entire forum in my 11 years on VT

    Hamsters, Jack's dad, Jack's dad's hamster. What you'd expect basically

    Truth is that he always looked miles off making it here. Good luck to the lad, hopefully it's a good move for him and he can kick on and build a successful career in football

    I actually find Bastani to be the most sane and tolerable of the Novara lot. Although that really isn't saying much...

    A wha?

    This is pretty much it for me. Had his limitations but got the most out of his talent over the course of his PL career. You compare that with the likes of Sinclair, who clearly had more natural ability but no application or motivation whatsoever (other examples are available!)

    Wasn't exactly the job of our sitting midfielder to get loads of goals and assists, and the floated corners were a deliberate tactic as requested by Benteke (agree they were infuriating for the most part). We were crap, but of all the crap in our squad around that time he was way down the list for me - very few of our players remained in the PL after relegation. Anyway this has all been done to death, hence his thread being locked. So will leave it there
  21. icouldtelltheworld
    Basically the same as @Bizzzle. It was OK, nothing more, nothing less. Ill give it a couple more episodes to win me over, but didnt really grip me at all and atm there's a decent chance I'll give up on it
  22. icouldtelltheworld
    Managed 10 straight years in the PL after being signed from Crewe, solid professional who never deserved the vitriol he got at times while here. Of all the problems at the club when we got relegated, he was about the least of them. Good luck to him, I know he suffered a pretty horrific injury a while back, and must be coming towards the twilight of his career now

    First episode didn't particularly grab me tbh. But then I'm not a gamer so had no prior knowledge of the plot, characters etc
  24. icouldtelltheworld
    They're definitely sold in packs of 9 as well

    I can understand this though, the BBC for the most part reflects the biases of our cultural elite, and so is generally pretty liberal on social issues. However, for fear of offending the Tories it has become increasingly right-wing on economic matters. Thus you end up with a situation in which both left and right feel that the BBC favours the other side
