  1. There are always some people who never attend games but still manage to get tickets to the big occasions, I call them rocket polishers!

     

    Like "Fans" who work Weekends/Have other financial commitments/live far away/older people/Invalids and other such types?

     

     

  2. I'd like to see

     

    -------------------Guzan

     

    ----- Okore Vlaar Clark (Captain)

    Lowton

    ---------- Westwood Sanchez

                                                 N'zog

    ------Bacuna

    -----------<<<----Gill----->>>---------

    ------------------Benteke

     

    A little lopsided but Lowton alternating between a full-back & wing-back so we are a back four defence & a back three attacking

    Bacuna & Lowton can double up & overlap

    N'zog has a little more space to work with

    I dont think Pulis will order them to high line so Gabby out for me

     

    But I think Tim will opt for

     

                     Guzan

    Bacuna Okore Vlaar Lowton

                 Westwood

    Cleverley                Delph

                    N'zog >

           < Gabby Benteke

  3. As I read that, a lifetime of Aston Villa Football Club Memories came running through my mind. From 3rd Division to Kings of Europe and everything inbetween.

     

    Brought tears to my eyes.

    Lerner must be absolutely bricking it, hes literally got like 100m riding on our survival.

    How Dumb, Stupid and absolutely useless do you have to be to make mistake after mistake and Spunk 200 Million +

    Even most of us on here know that 4-4-2 or 3-5-2 or 4-3-3 = 11

     

    I dont understand... (none of those sums make 11, or is that the point?!)

    Not sure if serious ?!

     

     

    4-4-2= -2

    3-5-2 = -4 

    4-3-3 = -2

     

    This was exactly my Point

    So the above team is a possibility

    (Lerner Pocketing anything he gets from transfers & creaming the TV deal)

  8.  

     

    I'd be interested to see how many CV's Fox received for the job because if Sherwood with 28 games in charge of a club was the best candidate I can only imagine he was also the only applicant ....

     

     

    I'm wondering if there was any applicants at all, if the position was ever even open.  From the time of sacking Lambert, and getting a new manager in...surely the vacancy couldn't have been open long enough for people to actually apply?

    It's something that gives me a glimmer of hope, that there was maybe some greater plan that we're not aware of to all this.

     

    "unbelievable" levels of interest, according to our CEO

     

    The

    Unbelievable lack of interest

     

  9. There's 2 ways we could go here

     

    3-4-2-1

     

    ----------------------------Guzan

     

    ------------Okore-------- Clark----------- Baker

     

    Hutton/Bacuna-Westwood-Sanchez-Richardson

     

    -------------Gil-------------------------Sinclair

    -----------------------------Benteke

     

    4-2-3-1

     

    -----------------------------Guzan

     

    Hutton---------Okore---------------Clark-----------Cissokho

     

    -----------------Westwood--------Sanchez

     

    -------Bacuna----------------------------------Sinclair

     

    ----------------<<<<<<<<<<Gil>>>>>>>>>-----------------

     

    --------------------------------Benteke

     

     

    Either way we need Westwood next to Sanchez infront of a solid defence that should stay back

     

    The 4 or 3 offensive players need to stretch and move to get onto long and medium passes

    No straight hoofs

    balls wide & into channels

    Gill needs a free role

    Sinclair needs to be mobile and aware where Gill can put him through

    Benteke needs to hold up the ball turn and get into the box

    corners & free kicks Gill (&/orBacuna)

     

    No Delph to slow up the play or run in to cul de sac's

    No Gabby

    Weiman only as sub along side Benteke

    Cleverley only as sub for Westwood or Sanchez if their going gets tough

     

    If we are behind last 20/30 mins. No risk no fun

     

    -----------------------Guz

    -----------------Okore--Clark

    Hutton-------Westwood-----Richardson

    Bacuna---------------------------Grealish

    ---------------------Gill

    ---------Sinclair---------Benteke

     

    not ideal but the best we got

  10.  

    So if we could only win one of these games which would you prefer to win. The cup game for me.

    Sod that I'm a greedy b*******d I want both. I don't want them to have ANY bragging rights whatsoever. Burst their bubble and put them back where they belong - in the backwater region of Sandwell

     

     

    Sandwell Park GC is a wonderful Golf Course
