  1. Whelan probably >>>>>>Burnley "Next, please"t
  2. The return of the "Look, mate -it's got a chip in it - we ain't paying full price for THAT !!" ploy......
  3. I think SB thinks that Barney the Viking can fill that role....
  4. Always makes me smile when people say this about a player... "I'd totally forgotten the last 5/6 tears - and Hutton has just reminded me of it"
  5. God almighty your lifespan will be shorter than Unsworth's Villa career
  6. They like to pretend that they are important. - the opium of the masses is the need to show that they know more than you.
  7. This person also says we are trying to sign a young Brazilian striker from Gremio - but the fact he is not listed on their squad in the last threee seasons tends to reinforce the BS status
  8. Last player to score MORE than 20 league goals ?? Andy Gray 40 YRS AGO !!!
  9. They are more than the sum of their parts - we are less
  10. An unsourced rumor has appe3ared that the CH deal might get hijacked by a PL club...with a big fat manager Could be a windup, of course
  11. Pat Saward was a Cork man - and the first one
  12. Sounds like the wife asking about the chances of a little nooky in the near future....
  13. "The Grass is not always greener" by C. Benteke
  14. For comparison at 1/1/16, 6th place Ipswich had 40 pts from 24 games We have 17 pts from 14 matches Ergo 23 pts from 10 games is what is needed.. 7 wins & 2 draws... from 10 ????? 32 matches to go 18W 7D 7L would get us 78 pts which was 6th place last season
  15. I haven't seen any highlights of this decision so I may be getting this wrong, but Elphick being off of the pitch doesn't mean he is not counted when an offside decision is being made, so if he is still goal side of the attacker along with the goalkeeper then it is not offside. Interesting point - on which I can throw no light at all - but it reminds me of one of the Wolves goals in the 1960 Cup Final - which was claimed to be offside by Rovers as the defender playing the scorer onside was actually standing in the back of the net behind the goal-line - the ref pointed out that he had his hand on the goal-post - which is part of the field of play- GOAL! I do remember some weird shit sometimes
  16. This- some teams are going to need anal surgery after we play them
  17. Yes - he scored the second goal......
  18. December 12th 1959 - Cardiff came visiting ( and lost 2-0 - though they were promoted with us.) The last season that Villa had 3 players who all reached 20 goals in the League, I'm sure Dad took 10-yr-old me down the front of the old Witton End where I could peer through the old white railings at my soon to be heroes - and be slightly frightened each time the ball came my way. Pity he waited until that date - I missed the 11-1 against Charlton.
  19. Actually, several reports suggested that we agreed on his demands - but when asked for a bigger cut by his agent - we told the agent to go forth and multiply
