  1. I dont want to answer on behalf of the General, but I asked him that very question last yr as its also similar with the $ exchange rate. The basis of his reply was that the he would contact John Greenfield and see the reasoning. After several weeks and many more requests to the General, John responded with something along the lines of that online sales/website are dealt with by a third party (kitbag I think) and there's nothing that they can do about it because it's not just Villa but all clubs who use this firm. So to add to this question who pockets the extra revenue? So international Villa fans should be made aware that by choosing to pay in STG instead of euro/dollar they can make a significant savings. But not enough is been made of this issue and fans dont realise that they're being ripped off.
  2. You can get whatever you want it's your shirt but aren't we thankful his mum didn't call him Ian Mark Bent!! "IM BENT"
  3. Good for you. However, I'm guessing that you don't put £1,000+ into going to watch Villa every season, being that you live over there (my apologies if you do actually do this too). Many of us spend a fortune going to see Villa every season. Therefore, why should we sit back and accept the fact that we are being vastly overcharged for a top that will last around five months less than normal (for the current season)?! It's all good to sit back and say "I will wear it proudly', thus attempting to make out that it is some kind of proof of how good your support for the club is.... We all proudly support the Villa and many of us would like the new top. However, many of us put lots of money into Villa on a regular basis and refuse to be robbed on this occasion. Fair enough if you want to pay that price as it's up to you. I refuse to pay it though, as it is daylight robbery. Simple as.... Fair call. For what it is worth, my intention was never to take a swipe at the level of support anyone gives - so you can kiss my arse and shove your suggestion that I was suggesting that my support exceeds anyone else's. I suggest you direct your anger at the whole situation elsewhere mate. Perhaps take a moment to think how you would feel being on the other side of the world having never seen Villa play live. Good on ye Banger 75. another example that even though we all support the same team we are all totally different people/fans. We regularly see posts from fans on the generals page about Nike and Villa speading the Villa message worldwide and saying Villa aren't doing enough. Here we have a Villa fan in Oz whos opinion is different to Villa Park regular and at the 1st oppurtunity he is attacked for being different. Not the behavour of a true fan in my opinion. Finally Banger hope the top reaches you soon and you enjoy wearing it for as long as you want to.
  4. General can we at least have a time frame as to when we might have an answer to this. I'm well aware your legal team are working on this. But the sooner I know if this is to be rolled out for another yr or not the sooner I can make a decision whether or not to purchase it?
  5. . I'm sure thats not his intent, once or twice is ok but it's nearly ever interview (and in the others the media themselves insert some liverpool reference/fact , but I'm aware you've no control over that.)It's like a girlfriend talking about en ex boyfriend, and what worked well or not so i that relationship. We dont care...what we're interested in is GH ASTON VILLA MANAGER!! Can I second the Villa Tie for GH idea.
  6. Without trying to get to polital, if too refugees/asylum seekers gave a baby just after getting off the euro star does that make them parents of an english child?? Or a french couple on holidays in Blackpool who go into early labour, not have a french child??? Being born somewhere intitles you to citizanship of that country, you dont have to recieve it. I remember JPA had his wife fly home to Columbia so his child wont be intitled to an English passport.(Prob cause he knew you guys would want him for ENG-ER-LAND too lol)
  7. Lets not forget NRC was uneder 21 captain for quite a few games.........it doesn't mean there a shoe in for tg senior squad at any stage.
  8. pink room is his daughters. He has 3 kids and is only 24 :shock: Not including the miscarriage she had too.....
  9. Hi General, welcome back. Alot of fans will also have to make a buisness decision on purchasing a product that will (as far as we're aware) have its shelf life halved and the discount offered is £5 or about 2%. It doesn't really make finanical sense for us to purchase. Mon and Randy for the last 4 yrs ran this club and a very sound financial footing. But your asking fans to make a unsenseable financial decision. One of two things has to happen in my opinion. Either AVFC/Nike extent the contract for another yr and dont release another jersey next yr or the price is reduced to nearer the 50% mark to offer true value. Again thanks for your time.
  10. Not just coaches a few more players will def be making the trip down to if you ask me. Maybe Steve G and Carragher for there final yr in football. I would love Saunders as a assistant to Houllier. He knows the club too and has plenty of experience too and with Toshack leaving Wales soon could be available(for might be next in line for the Welch job).
  11. Will be interesting to see what lenth of contract he gets? To show the board have faith in GH I think it will have to be a 3 or 4 yr deal. If they give him a rolling contract like MON had, what can we read into that?
  12. yes he's listed on on the villa squad on the uefa website. http://www.uefa.com/uefaeuropaleague/clubs/club=52683/index.html
  13. Are you asking, will the club miss out on a marketing oppurtunity,like this? I think you know the answer already.
  14. GREAT GOAL BY ALBRIGHTON...................
