we may have some idiots in our team at the moment but I the past we have had some amazing players and men, not many more so than Stan. 

If he was ever to run out wearing the claret and blue again- even for a minute his acheivements would surpass more than most players could ever dream of. 

Great to have such a positive, inspiring story. Go on Stan!

You have missed something relevant.

Gabby is a man well paid to do frankly, not much at all. The very minimum you expect of him if that he is the appropriate physical condition to do his job.

I can assure you - I would be ashamed to conduct myself in his manner. I don't earn as much as him and I've got my flaws, but I would be cognizant of the position I am in and stnad up and be counted.

The only thing you count on Gabby is the spare tires. You know his age by counting the rings around his **** midriff.

This post contains more effort, pride and passion than Gabby has all season . 

Never mind Holtenders in the sky- it's like Eastenders in the sky at the moment! 

Whatever you think of Stan, rightly or wrongly, you cannot disagree with what he had said. At least we have someone who can vent our frustrations about the state of our club to a wider audience.

Sad day for all associated with the club. 

I would rather have a competitive season in the championship that repeat this one that's for sure. 

This club are so Shiite they can't even send me an email to reset my password so I can buy some shorts! 

(Sorry mods, put this in here cos it reminded me of Gabby, I've ordered 5xl) 

So we basically want/ need the players gone (some), the manager replaced, Lerner out and all the rest dumped( Fox, Reilly etc) keeping the kit man, tea lady, ticket office staff and grounds man. 

Then we can concentrate on coming back up! VTID! 

I think in the boards eyes Garde was exactly the right appointment: good bringing through young players, working on a tight budget etc. The only problem was they forgot we were in a relegation battle and needed to sort that out first before dealing with building foundations for the future. 

As it now turns out we have had an inexperienced manager (in terms of the English league and the pressures of being at the bottom) and a group of inexperienced players. Both put together have been a disaster. Unfortunately they have not had a group of experience pro's who are ready to roll their sleeves up when the muck hits the fan to help out as the ones we have are seemingly happy for the manager to take the flack. 

Its a shame that we may not get to see what Garde could have done (and possibly some of the players- Vertout, Gana etc) whilst being comfortably mid- table. 

POTS should be interesting.

I hope nobody turns up to his testimonial game. Anyone that does has more money than brains.

"Gabby, I saw him standing alone,without a touch of the ball, without an effort on goal"

No goals scored, gives city fans an idea of what being a Villa fan feels like! 

Moved to Devon from kingstanding nearly 20 years ago. Then moved back to Brum for 6 months before moving to Leeds. Been here now for 15 years. Really like it as there is a great contrast between city and countryside. Don't really miss Brum, just friends, old haunts etc.  

Would like to live by the sea again soon. 

As if he is not under enough pressure as it is. 

Fair play to Remi for remaining dignified. He'll be off in the Summer thinking "thank goodness I got out" 

The club gets worse each week. 

Well Remi you will upset players if you disrupt Butlins Heath. 

What a mess we are. Get this season over with ASAP.  

I can feel a 6-2 coming on! Bring on Cowans! 

For me Remi is the only one conducting himself in a manner that I would expect for this club: with dignity and respect. It's a shame it does not transmit to the pitch or boardroom. 

We are down. I really hope this gives us the kick up the backside we need. 

Randy Lerner needs to change his name..to call him randy would imply he has some passion or dare I say "spunk". He ain't got shit! Needs to be called shandy Lerner! 

Boys did all they could. 

I was at the game Saturday and it certainly was a strange atmosphere, all the chanting you heard on the video was coming from the terraces towards the end of the game (from some fans) 

What frustrates me is that the players may not be at the required level to compete but surely they can run, hassle and put pressure on the opposition. We were up against O'shea and Wes Brown who are possibly the oldest pairing in the league yet they seemed to have such an easy game and time on the ball. 

There seemed to be a complete lack of motivation, desire and concentration which Remi should be instilling. Confidence is a big factor but surely at this stage we should just be rolling our sleeves up and getting stuck in if nothing else, we really have nothing to lose.

I am a supporter of Remi but not sure if his methods are getting across at the moment, we are playing with no heart. 

Benteke trying to save us again  

Going to this so I'll sing, shout and scream until I'm horse- then hopefully go home happy! 

I actually think we will win this, Sunderland have plop tonight so will have tiredness as a ready made excuse for when we beat them! 

UTV! 

Watched it last week with my wife. We both really enjoyed it. The sad thing is I can't/ won't take my five year old son to see it. Pretty strange that we left him with grandparents whilst we watched it and then he got lots of Star Wars toys for Christmas. 

Thanks for putting these up after every game Chewie. I may not always want to watch but it's good to know there here!
