  1. Are Heskey and Agbonlahor not strikers? And if you are not including Rapid Vienna x2, haven't we scored 3 goals?

    :shock:

    Oh yes - you're quite correct. Gabby's excellent reactions for our first goal last night. I'm not prepared to count Heskey's goal though. He would be cheeky to claim it!!

    But yes, I will admit that our prized forward asset Gabby, did score. Like most, my initial response to John was written with rage of Hulk proportions and not necessarily containing the full facts!!

    :-)

  2. A fair old post John, but I'm afraid you show too much respect to the much maligned (and misunderstood?) Emile Heskey. He missed the most easy chance of the game with the penalty rebound and seemingly had a goal credited to him which deflected off his arse (or so it seemed to me).

    I'm no free flowing footballer of any skill, but I would have put my house on burying that chance.

    We've become shocking at the back, but STILL lack tenacity up front. Not a single striker has scored a goal for us yet. We#ve netted 4 goals, with all being scored by midfielders, including one f***er who doesn't even play with us any longer.

    What happened to Gabby anyway? Was he injured again or was he taken off tacticially because we thought we had the game sewn up?

    There were boos after the final whistle last night - I didn't join in, but I was mighty tempted. Another dismal result. Call me a knee-jerk if you like (anyone), but as the Stranglers sang - 'Somethin' Better Change.'

    Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr...

  3. It will take an unbelievable season to make me renew next season. Not because we got beat 6-0, it just doesn't feel right anymore.

    Footballs broken now and I don't think it can be fixed.

    My decision to renew or not will depend on my own finances. The last time I threw in the towel was the last DOL season. I regret it in hindsight. But if money becomes more tight next year for me, I'm afraid going to the football will fall behind my love for airshows and my other hobbies.

    Football is very broken. I lost a lot of interest as a result of the dismal World Cup - not just England. The whole tournament was utter shite, and the final was a throwback to thuggery and buggery of Roman times. Really, really disappointed with the final.

    So, I was apathetic to begin with about the new season - seeing all those over-rated England players laughing and smiling as they put Stoke, Wigan, Albion, Blackpool to the sword (and Villa now!) by cricket scores. The very treachery of Team England beaming their smug Chelsea Grins.

    And City - jealousy or not. It just isn't right. The Liverpool flag last night was spot on. You can buy the league (Blackburn, Chelsea anyone?) but you can't buy our heritage.

    All that money when the floods have devastated Pakistan and China. It just ain't right. This is supposed to be 'just football' - just a game. But is it bollocks.

    And then MON threw a leg out of bed and fooked himself away in a puff of smoke. Hung out to dry we've been.

    All I can say it, do your best Villa. Do the best with what you've got.

    This is a low.

  4. Obviously I had not read pages 4 or 5 before I wrote my scolding words... I see I was a little late on the uptake that Rapid Vienna had apologised of a fashion and that they appeared sincere in that. Fair play. I would also like to point out that the New Years Day concert broadcast from Vienna is the TV Highlight of my year...

    Except maybe a Villa Wembley final win...

  5. What about the Hitler inbreds that threw water over him as he was beimg stretchered off,

    by fans of the club his family supports.

    Yes - Now I love the City of Vienna - a little overpriced in some places, but a delightful place nonetheless and an evening's worth of rousing Strauss music is very theraputic amidst the modern grunge, RMB bobbins we are foisted with these days.

    I even gave credit to the Rapid fans at VP last year, they clearly outsung us and demonstrated fine committment. But last night, that water throwing (over an injured player, and an upset player) was totally out of fooking order.

    I will be writing to the General to make sure that we as a club, put in a complaint about that.

    Lighters being thrown at Guzan I can just about live with. But throwing water over an impressionable young player who has just been badly injured and is visibly upset and on a stetcher smells very badly of right wingism.

    Not happy at all.

  6. Sorry - I know it's all about money - but there is no replacing the joy of being there at a cup win. Unless I am mistaken, this could be our longest baron spell without winning a serious trophy (Inter Toto and Peace Cup do not really count do they?). There's no way I would be happier finishing 4th than winning the FA Cup.

    Still. each to their own...

  7. If Milner wants to leave, and people are prepared to pay (and I worry it might open the floodgates of departures) and we as a club capitulate to it - where will that leave us?

    Back to square one?

    Or would we still be on the upwards?

    Sooner or later, we have to stop being a selling club if we want that success.

    Hopefully, Jim will see sense and decide to play week in and week out rather than warming the bench at some 'grand club.'
