    I've often wondered this. What do players think about fans that just sing and dance without paying attention to what's happening? Some Milan's fans were doing this the other night......clearly not paying attention to the game just creating an atmosphere. Which is good..........but sometimes it doesn't relate to what happening on the pitch at all.

    Stop taking Aston Villa more seriously than Aston Villa takes you...... This has been my signature since the Doug Ellis days. Just take what you need from Villa....because they will take what they need from you. I buy my season ticket and the occasion pint. Season ticket is good value. The pint isn't........... at the current price and service level. Occasionally i decide to indulge though.

    So much of our play goes through him. He also swept up for Ezri on a couple of occasions. Caught for the goal but Mateta was a threat all game and what defender is perfect and never gets turned?Im sure there are some but I can’t think of names right now. Good player and he has scope to improve.

    There’s also a lot of negativity in this thread. However your final sentence pretty much sums it all up. We are no different to the rest.

    This is true.....but it is a football fans way. Don't be too hard on yourself

    last night i attended with my wife .....it doesn't happen often. I was surprised to see that she was sent to the back of the queue because the steward couldn't check her as he was a man... she was told to join a queue with a women steward. It wasn't a big deal....but i didn't know it was even a thing? This will surely slow things down even more!

    To everyone who is saying "he was shite for Spurs"......... You sound same as football fans around the country who spout "Tyrone Ming's is shit" without really watching him play.

    This is the type of thinking that makes my head spin. When it comes to football “most fans” don’t know. I include myself in this generalisation

    I'm in the ESR camp too. Could really develop into a top player given the chance. Weren't we in for him a couple of years ago?
  10. MarkLillis
    I would say yes. Based on the Emery/Monchi partnership know how.

    This is already happening.They are charging for it without delivering! Do we just keep paying and they keep taking? I'd had enough years ago nothing is good value inside VP every fan who attend games regularly knows this.

    How many points Newcastle United, Man United & Liverpool need to seal Champions League finish | NewcastleWorld Here a quick link i found from google stating that the average over the last decade to get top four has been 71Pts. Emery's points per game so far = 1.92 (my own math's) 1.92 points a game is 73pts. Unia is on it!

    I would find it impossible to “give up” about Villa. Maybe I could as I have in the past for various reasons not actually go to the game. However we are talking about things that I have only heard about being done to people I’ve never seen.It’s really difficult to get emotional about it. Its just doesn’t affect my life and nor will affect the Geordies I guess.

    There is a simple solution in my eyes here. Accept that they don't care about us we are just ticket price figures to them. If you accept this then you don't expect much. When you don't get much its not a surprise. You can even get your own back by playing a little game...… try to spend as little as you possibly can with the club during the season as they are only trying to fleece you every way you turn once you are inside.

    Thought he did well.Under absolutely no pressure though.

    I have a feeling that the PIF have guaranteed to buy players from them in the future. This would explain the carefree spending… They have an insurance policy. The PIF get a steam of PL big names filtered through to them via Stamford Bridge

    I think we should stick to the no criticism idea.. After all negativity just brings everyone down Mannn. Peace!

    Losing Mings is a massive blow. It really is…. Im sorry for him because he has worked his way back to the top of his game and I’m even sorrier that Villa will lose a “peak” Tyrone. He is almost priceless to us. I think Unai will have to work his magic here. At least it’s the first game.
  19. MarkLillis
    tried this a few times over the years...doesn't really work for me. I just don't care enough to get any kind of buzz!

    I think the point is he wont flop. They are backing Klopp's judgement which to be fair to him is pretty good.

    I did so thanks! "These shirts look like they're clinging to the players and so that's possibly uncomfortable and a distraction. It doesn't mean it's necessarily an active distraction, it's just the wearer is more likely to be aware of it. The best feedback you can get from an athlete is no feedback at all, IMHO." I run regularly and have a number of different T-shirts obviously.... The ones that cling quickly find their way out of my rotation. Whilst not being particularly uncomfortable it is a distraction to me and also like the pictures of the Villa players we are discussing....it just looks bad!
  22. MarkLillis
    Well its been said that we could expect this type of "risky" signing during Monchi's reign, fingers crossed here then!
  23. MarkLillis
    It’s not really a prediction…..more of a list of his favourite clubs.
  24. MarkLillis
    Can’t stand the bloke…. even if he is right he’s wrong in my eyes lol

    Wolves

    MarkLillis replied to Jimzk5's topic in Other Football

    I’m not so sure. Some obviously… but my point was that Wolves fans had been so starved of success that they couldn’t handle it in a magnanimous way! Wheras at Villa we’ve seen it come and go over the last 40 years or so…so many times. We went from European champions to Div2 in five years ffs!
