    If Unai wants him who am I to have doubts.
  2. Captain_Townsend
    Oh absolutely mate, didn't take it that way at all!
  3. Captain_Townsend
    I am surprised and disappointed at myself, there, to be included in your hall of shame. I am usually very supportive of players and patient with new ones.
  4. Captain_Townsend
    It doesn't. It is the same ratio as a seat.
  5. Captain_Townsend
    Mate, they approved having two separate club badges in season 23-24 so anything is possible
  6. Captain_Townsend
    It all leaves a sour taste in the mouth The middle one is the best and had popular support. Not universally loved of course, no badge ever will be, but more legitimate than the one being picked going forward. We went from bad, to good, to awful. AVFC, Aston Villa, some illegible text squished under the lion. **** me! Edit, I really find it astonishing how it isn't universally accepted that the handling of this since May 2023 is under par.

    Indeed on all counts. And they managed to do a 20 minute video thevother week that seemed to go out of its way to avoid the elephant in the room. How many times did he say 'we aren't going to change the Holte' ? There was never any suggestion the Holte was going to change in any fundamental way. My thoughts on this are well documented so I will say no more.

    I am so sick of reading online that he is a waste. He has had a good first season adapting to the league.
  9. Captain_Townsend
    Not only do I love him, I wish I was him!
  10. Captain_Townsend
    100% agree. A proper Aston Villa club legend.
  11. Captain_Townsend
    Well, we decided to go with having two completely different badges, simultaneously, this season so you never know.
  12. Captain_Townsend
    Same principle applies, you would imagine it wouldn't be for the rights to a stand that needs knocking down!
  13. Captain_Townsend
    No player is bigger than the Villa. Not Andy Gray in 1977. We went on to bigger things 1981-83. Not David Platt in 1991. We went on to 2nd place in 92-93. Not Dwight Yorke in 1998, we stayed a top 6 team. Not Jack Grealish in 2021, we moved on to the Champions League.

    I think it's a bit odd that we aren't putting the Adidas logo on the Trinity seats, opposite the main TV cameras? Seems odd putting it in the North, the smallest and least impressive stand.
  15. Captain_Townsend
    Rail seating is the same ratio to seqting isn't it? Not like the old days?
  16. Captain_Townsend
    Sun Never Sets on Aston Villa is probably the best Aston Villa song but I never see anybody mention it when this stuff comes up. Think it was a mid 90s effort by a local band? I have it on my playlist.
  17. Captain_Townsend
    Well, we will benefit from not playing on a Thursday any more, and we will have been seasoned by the experience of Playing in Europe this season. Also, we have Emery!
  18. Captain_Townsend
    This will sound odd but we probably have more of a chance if lifting the Champions League than we do the Premier league and we were not far off being title contenders in the league this season. We will play some weaker teams than we face in the Premier league imho.
  19. Captain_Townsend
    The club's stadium is the embodiment of the club. Our home. We very publicly were intend on expanding it and then, abruptly and like a giddy Goat, the new head man said 'we're not doing that' with no proper explanation.The Gabby interview did not really clear things up. We have the Euros coming up in 2028, we have a time limit on the planning permission. We have sky high demand. I know I will get 3 or 4 replies saying We are not entitled to know the details etc. But we sure as hell are entitled to better than that.
  20. Captain_Townsend
    Good luck getting a ticket!
  21. Captain_Townsend
    I admire Unai Emery so much. He's become one of my ultimate heroes, just an absolute legend. There aren't words to articulate just how much I admire and respect this wonderful man.
  22. Captain_Townsend
    Exactly right JV.
  23. Captain_Townsend
    Can't sleep. I am buzzing. I Keep opening the phone for Villa content.
  24. Captain_Townsend
    I wish I was half as impressive as that when sober, never mind when plastered
  25. Captain_Townsend
    One of my best nights supporting this wonderful, beautiful club. I was 10 the last time we finished 4th. Magical.
