  1. Bad Bailey was never that bad in my opinion. Just became a scapegoat for some reason. He struggled in a team that was struggling. Diaby is struggling in team that is 4th.
  2. I’m not doubting the guys ability for a second. Just would like to see him try to beat a man and get a cross or shot off more often. Seems reluctant to try. Bailey even when he was apparently shit kept trying. Its why I think it’s more a confidence thing than anything else.
  3. It’s a football forum mate, trust me you would have got away with it
  4. Nah he got the second yellow for gesturing a calm down straight after the ref told him not to engage with fans. The time wasting yellow was stupid though.
  5. Watching that again the ref booked him but knew the rules so explained to Dougie he’s not sent off. Fair play he knew that rule. If only he knew that every time a crowd boos you don’t have to give a yellow card.
  6. Unlucky more like. Just look at how many Premier League games they have to play in a very short space of time not to mention the teams they play. I’ve said it before but if they get top 4 after that then hats off to them. They deserve it.
  7. I always felt he had this in him which is why I defended him so much and got annoyed with fans turning him. Im not feeling that vibe as much from Diaby because I haven’t seen him try to beat players the way Bailey always did even when he was struggling. That’s why I think the comparisons are a bit different. Hopefully Diaby can add that to his game too.
  8. I reckon all those hours playing COD paid off!
  9. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. The guy is not just amazing in football terms, he’s inspirational in life. 6 years ago he had spent 10 years as a reserve keeper and loaned out from club to club. Yet he tweeted my time will come. You always have to believe.
  10. Whens the last time Villa played in Greece ? Now they could be going twice in a a month! Like London buses.
  11. I hate to say it but I think we could lose this one down to fatigue. Havent really got too many options for rotation. Hopefully can grind a result out.
  12. He has a lot of ability so hopefully comes good but he’s definitely struggling for consistency at the moment. The price tag can’t be helping.
  13. I don’t think it would have happened for the last 6-7 or years ! Sod’s Law. Right let’s deal with Bournemouth now.
  14. 15 bookings tonight if you include the managers. Wasn’t even a dirty game.
  15. I loved the way he tried his shithousery after our first penalty and then quickly dropped the ball when remembered he on a yellow. I don’t think anybody in the ground seemed to know the yellow card rule including Emi. I know I didn’t.
  16. We wernt great today and the better team lost but so much determination and never give up mentality. Unai has made a special group and we already had a very special goalie.
  17. Nah they all get wiped. I never knew that rule though. I guess you can’t make subs during penalties so it makes sense.
  18. Card was a joke. Referee was lost out there. He held the ball for long periods but it was at his feet !
  19. Could be my favourite Villa player ever.
  20. Was never his biggest fan but I miss him. I reckon he would have thrived this season with our style of play. He was always at his best picking up the ball in the hole on the turn and that pass has been key to our success this season.
  21. tbf it’s not like we’re a rival. Not until next season anyway
