Aye but the stand is the thing we really meed to get done imho.

Sorry to open this can of worms again! Just rewatched the redevelopment video on YouTube. It was uploaded before Christmas 2022. Then on 19 July 2023 they posted a new video on the club website detailing the updated plans with the warehouse in place of Villa Live. Then, as we know, 5 months later it emerged it was all on hold. It's just so odd that they would go to the bother of updating the video and announcing an update to the plans last July and then just defer it 5 months later. Maybe this truly was just a communication cock up (a big one) and we have merely been looking into a way of minimising the disruption while the build happens. Hopefully we find out more soon.

The 76-81 umbro white away is nicer imho than the, also nice, iconic 82 away kit. Funny that we won the league in one and won the European Cup in the other.

In a way we are being greedy. I mean we are 7 points clear! We'd have taken being clear on goal difference at the start of the season. We have such a great chance- would have been nice to wrap it up yesterday but we still are very likely to do the job.

Villa Podcasts & The Athletic Coverage
Captain_Townsend replied to HalfTimePost's topic in Villa Talk
You are brilliant on it! John is probably going to be great but his reference points begin in about 2010! He missed out on Richardson and Townsend in discussing our best PL era captains for example!. The debate they had on staying at Villa Park v building a New stadium, also, could have been so much better. The points raised on the Villa Talk threads were far stronger, for and against. -
For me, McGinn is already a Villa legend.

We have some unbelievable critical fans, online at least. Been a magical season, whatever happens.

The squad was hit my 3 ACL injuries to important players and several other injuries all season. I think the squad has done incredibly well to sustain things this far.

We need to have less rotten luck that results in the important players getting injured.

I am guessing you mean that you like the lion on the 2023 new badge rather than the 2024 new badge?! If so, I agree

The banker loving, baby-eating Tory party thread (regenerated)
Captain_Townsend replied to blandy's topic in Off Topic
The Tories deserve to be out of power for a generation. Abysmal performance - Britain diminished in so many ways under their leadership. -
In the PL era Everton have had more patches, than us, of being crap yet we managed to get relegated whereas they always fluke survival.

Which would suggest that's it then as suggested on twitter/X.

Jones has been the player of the tournament so far

Yikes, that was not my intention at all. Sorry, I thought you were saying folks were jumping to conclusions about the badge and I was just replying that there was meant to be an announcement but it never came so people were assuming what was trademarked must be the badge.

With respect, the gap in comms from the club (despite promises) isn't the fault of fans so it isn't surprising people out there are seeing something trademarked, something leaked and assuming that is it. It is the amateur comms at the club that is at fault.

Russia and its “Special Operation” in Ukraine
Captain_Townsend replied to maqroll's topic in Off Topic
Fair point -
I do not understand how Mrs Brown's Boys gets on so well, especially in England I have never met anybody who likes it. I think it does well in certain circles as it has the sort of staged, stereotypical Irishness to it that wouldn't have been out of place in the 1970s. *shudders*

Russia and its “Special Operation” in Ukraine
Captain_Townsend replied to maqroll's topic in Off Topic
Is that a legitimate translation? Would be great to see the Russians rise up against the Putin Fascist regime -
West Ham used to always use white, gold was usually our sort of 'third' colour if you will

We have underachieved for a long time, we should be in or around the top 7 most seasons. The 2010s were a very bad decade, one of the worst decades in Villa's 150 year history. It's not 'entitled' to want us to be top 4. And why are you picking fights with other Villa fans over what constitutes success?
