needs dropping full stop. weiman and bent should be ahead of him at the moment our game has gone back to hoof ball since he came and we have looked shit in each game bar the man city game which i only saw the crap tv highlights of.

benteke seems to be mirroring heskey scores in his first game but then is shit our midfield is piss weak, either play 5 across the middle and bent up front on his own / gabby up front on his own or if 4-4-2 then we need 4 solid midfielders because we couldnt string a pass together in that second half, couldnt win a header, were 3rd to each loose ball and piss orr generally we make average tems look great due to our midfield being as strong as a wet fart

we are shit, cant even win a header this second half. no excuses for continued hoof ball benteke needs to be not used for the next game as it seems they think by hoofing it to him is a plan, it is, a plan for losing and playing shit.

i also thought it was the only way to get rid of the orange haired spunk monkey but luckily randy managed to sort his head out

Didn't exactly do Newcastle any harm. In my post I said I no longer see it that way, I thought it might have taken that to get rid of McLeish and a few players like Hutton, Collins etc, but Lerners cashed out before he lost it all with McLeish. The thing is, if you work on previous history, it would more than likely be a disaster for us. Newcastle survived and it was a good thing for them, but they are the only club to do that really. We could easily go the way of Leeds, Southampton etc... I think it's more likely we'd fall apart then do a Newcastle. I wouldn't want to take that risk. A lot of those clubs as well would have had great financial troubles, not many would have been backed by a multi million pound owner. The way I saw it if McLeish relegated us, he would have left, along with Dunne, Warnock, Bent, Collins, Hutton, Heskey, Cuellar, & Ireland, leaving us with the perfect platform to re-build from. However, now that Lambert is in I dont think we will have to worry about it. heskey and cuellar would have gone anyway, their contracts ran out people like dunne would have stayed, he is towards the end of his career and wont have got another pay pack like the one at villa hutton would want to stay, again he knows he wouldnt get more elsewhere and also probably knows no premier league club would want him anyway i could only see bent and ireland wanting out and they have been 2 of our most important players relegation would be a disaster and financially we would have been ****, players staying due to massive contracts, no revenue to pay them, less advertisement, crap shirt deal ( oh wait....) as it stands we have loaned out warnock, sold collins, heskey and cuellar have not had new contracts there seems only really hutton now the manager doesnt want in the squad, if we can **** him off in january for free im sure the club would be happy. Lambo has started well in terms of off field activities and also squad wise, on the pitch it is a work in progress which will see us have good days and woeful days we wont go down though, we will finish 10th or there abouts

probably get a game tonight which again is a bit unfair to judge the fringe players when they will be up against the league champions.

today we were shit no passing hoofball and no retention first game i have seen all season, doesnt look great. against a shit team also

we signed zat knight just hours after he and his gang member brother were arrested for drug and firearm offences at the house zat bought

but there wasnt just 4 defenders at the back, that was the whole issue. we had 4 defenders in defence, nomally at least 1 or 2 more defenders in midfield and the rest of the outfield players were always told to get back and not attack so of course if you keep 11 men behind the ball for 80% of a game, the opposition are less likely to score a hat full you also stand less chance of scoring , which again was painfully obvious to all but 1. the defence was shit, there is no 2 ways about it, the midfield was poor and the forwards once bent got injured were almost invisible. to be fair though, i blame the ginger gibbon for around 75% of all the shit from last season.

last season even a monkey could have got villa into at least 12th place. it was one of the weakest leagues for a long time, several poor teams. this season will be harder, teams like wet spam coming up, qpr now starting to spend, last seasons new comers establishing themselves however now we have a manager who plays football so realistically we could finish anywhere from 15th to 8th without too much tinkerng wth the players as he is getting in his own players and if he is allowed to **** off certain players then my expectation gets higher if we lose collins , warnock ( although i think under a good manager he MAY come good again) dunne and that abortion mutton, restructure the midfield so rather than just shoving people in there because they on paper are attacking players actualy having a system where the midfielders are used correctly and keeping bent fit and also weimann / gabby we SHOULD be hitting top 10 however as long as the football gets better and we TRY to get results rather than try to cling on to a 1-0 loss i will be happy if we are in a good position come january however, my expectations will be higher.

sums it up for me too i used to enjoy seeing certain posters post in this section, most have now stopped thanks to the same old shit being thrown around dont blame them for stopping the posts, there really is some ungreatful fuckwits around

use the following code GAME15 for an extra 15% off, plus quidco and it brings it in delivered at £8.08 and you then get 8% cash back through quidco. i ordered another one ( thats 3 sets now) 1 for me, 1 for brother and one for work mate

because rock the casbah has **** all to do with football? Well, the song is something about people in the Muslim/Arab world defying repressive religious authorities to sing and dance in the streets. For Villa, that could be seen as an allegory for breaking free of McLeish's defensive fundamentalism to jive around the previously forbidden territory of the opposition half of the field. The Casbah is a metaphor for Villa Park, which hopefully will be rocking again. Just an idea... i get all that but rock the crossbar , the original idea i think is great, no need for it to be changed. it has the player in the chant and it includes a football theme, all sang to a tune which frequented the popular hit parade on at least 2 occassions and is familiar to most people over a certain age.

they are moving out fast again, i ordered another one so my brother will be getting this for his birthday or xmas, it is a great set and even if you dont read them they still look great on the book case ( and may impress any bitches who think you read real books ) oh you can also get 8% cash back through quidco which would take the book down to around £9.30 including post and packaging

because rock the casbah has **** all to do with football?

hard working ball playing midfielders? who would have believed it this time last year. when players like this are in the team, players like ireland or nzog will have a chance to shine as they wont have to worry as much about being an 8th defender and they can concentrate on their game welcome K E A

El Ahmadi himself.. its the same quotes as before, sky have just latched on to it now and slightly reworded it

our last 2 morrocans didnt fair too well here despite both being good players good luck to him, we need at least 4 midfielders this summer petrov wont be playing again and we need senior players as well as the youngsters getting in ball players and changing the loser mentality which was spread so successfully by the last manager is a big challenge things are looking up

get a small adults and wash it on a hot wash then put it in the tumble drier kapow a small persons shirt with the logo.

steve i understand what you are saying ( i think?) but if indeed that was the plan, it has cost in financial and in footballing terms, a huge amount i would have thought it would have been far more cost effective to just appoint a good manager? the contracts have run down anyway, the gibbon didnt actually do anything apart from make most of us hate every saturday i would guess in real terms that 1 appointment which i still think was 95% faulkners fault probably cost this club around £30 million in 1 season so i cant really see how the gibbon was being used, it was not to anyones benefit that the gibbon was appointed unless backhanders were given out because there is no way it was for football reasons and again as the finances took a huge nosedive due to the appointment, it couldnt have been in aston villas interests either, which only leaves that it was in someones personal interests. what ever the case it willmean we have to tighten our belts for a further 1 or 2 years now, all down to that one appointment. a very expensive mistake to make indeed

i dont think spending 7 million pounds on the ginger gibbon ( compo to scum and 2 years worth of wages) and losing several million more in league placings and several more million in advertising, loss of ticket / merchendise sales, next season season tickets and so on, is a good thing? who did the gibbon actually move on? no one friedel left for a longer contract and was a free downing deal was already done nothing to do with the gibbon young deal was done, nothing to do with the gibbon cuellar - contract expired heskey- contract expired infact i dont think the gibbon sold anyone in his time here did he? oh yes, luke young, sold him, our best right back and bought in hutton on a much longer contract for £3.5 million odd and no doubt £35k per week at least. so he didnt reduce anything apart from our status in the game and vast amounts of millions of pounds flushed down the bog. and i blame ginger child for it, i firmly believe that randy gave the ginger piglet total control on who to appoint and the idiot listened to a drunk fergie joke letter saying the gibbon was half decent. all my own opinion of course he may be good with money but he is **** shit when it comes to anything football, and to get himself bought onto the Fa in exchange for villa park agreeing to hosting the community shield ( again just my opinion) is dog dirt. keep him counting beans and get someone with half an ounce of footballing common sense to sort out contracts, they know what peoples real worth is and in the case of players like Heskey we should never ever see wages above £40k ever again give the wages to the very best players and then have a wage limit on the rest, it isnt as if any of them are going to bloody starve just cos they are on 20k less per week than a top player is it? i would keep the ginger piglet but in the back ground not as a public face of corperate aston villa.

I certainly think that we are aiming for dynamic vibrant play but I think it is wrong to think that every player we sign will be young and nor should they. I don't care really as long as they help us improve as a club true, there doesnt need to be only young players coming through or being signed, but holt is the sort of player we have been trying to rid ourselves of over the last 18 months oldish player wanting a longish contract on lots of money. we still have the likes of dunne collins warnock hutton to either sort out their game/ attitudes once and for all or just get rid of them and save the extra 160k plus per week it would save in wages while holt may come in and do a job for 12 months or 18 months he certainly is not worth paying a significant transfer fee for. a mixture of 1 or 2 older ones like given and dunne i would keep add in some 26 to 30 year olds and try and make the rest of the squad made up of under 25's its the older ones which from a villa point of view, take up most of the wages.

for £1 million and £30k p/w i would say yes, anything more than that and i would suspect Lambo is actually MON with lots of plastic surgery. i dont think Lambo will go for him, there is a different set of players, different remit and ambitions i do think he may look to germany as he still appears to be held in good regard there. to be honest, i dont really care who he signs as long as they also fit the remit of young dynamic exciting which was the remit for the manager. taking 2 or 3 of the best young players in the championship each season for the next 3 years and adding them to our squad with maybe 1 or 2 top players would seem the best and safest way to go, we have decent enough squad players coming in from or youth but we cant be fielding a team made up of them, there isnt enough all round quality for that.

not over excited but putting it into context, lambert is the modern day MON, was it a bad thing for leicester? nope it got them regular top 8 fnishes and a cup or 2. compaired to last seasons disgusting appointment this seems quite a step up. i would still rather have van gaal or hitzfeld but thats not going to be happening any time soon so i will see what the obviously nick named " lambo" can do for the club if appointed far happier with this than some of the dirt which is still floating around, at least lambo hasnt been poisoned and told what to do by alex ferguson and co who seem to have a hold over far more football matters not involving their own clubs than they should. good luck lambo
