  1. So one hobby of mine is building drums. Here is my newest: an aluminium snare drum that is really rather loud!
  2. Hehe. As a drummer, this made me double-take because I have one in my garage :-)
  3. "Aston Villa 2015-16 Home Jersey is maroon with sky blue sleeves" Claret! Get it right! "Dark red vertical pinstripes" Horizontal! Get it right!
  4. Well, the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few. Or the one.
  5. Nearly fell off my chair when this popped up on my twitter feed. Got to be a great appointment surely? He was so highly regarded when he worked as coach at Chelsea.
  6. Optimistically-named company :-) http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/live/32971963 "An Asian-based firm have been granted a two-year exclusivity period to bid for Birmingham City by the club's Hong Kong-based parent company. After months of speculation, Birmingham International Holdings Ltd have made a statement to the HK Stock Exchange announcing that Trillion Trophy Asia Ltd have become the preferred bidders. Trillion Trophy have promised the club a loan facility of £12.5m. That will be secured against the club's 109-year-old home at St Andrew's."
  7. Overall cost of wham's free new stadium is £702 million - more per spectator than Wembley! http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/33214058
  8. VMF is closing?? NNnnoooooo!!!!! I love VMF, there is nowhere else where you get food of that quality for that sort of price. Dammit!
  9. Faroe Islands 2 - Greece 1 Their best ever result surely. And they are now ahead of Greece in their group.
  10. I suggest avoiding the BBC live text today... It is literally just Gerrard Gerrard Gerrard Gerrard. Aaaargh
  11. But they just thought it was full time when it was a free kick - they were dumb yeah but I can see why they went on early. Besides which, I thought the stewards handled it just fine. Any attempt to properly force fans back could have actually resulted in things kicking off. What else could they have done?
  12. Wow - that video is quite amazing. And there was me thinking it was a relatively poor game by his standards watching from Trinity Road! He made Song look quite foolish didn't he?
  13. "Bayern fans know the score. Quite literally." Excellent, insightful commentary there.
  14. Bah! If he made a defender fall over backwards, he is worthy of the title 'best footballer in the world' then :-)
  15. Messi is a worthy candidate for best footballist in the world, but I ask you this: Has he ever made a defender fall over backwards? I bet he hasn't.
  16. Jesus Christ BBC - livetext telling me it is 1-0 to Hull for several entries, now saying it is 2-0 to Hull! Dreadful.
  17. Cracking game. Loved seeing the new-found confidence in the side, like how Grealish controlled a wayward kick from Given, then turned and set up the attack that led to the first goal. So many times his control of the ball in midfield turned defence into attack. Our midfield completely dominated the majority of the game. Brilliant stuff.
  18. Schneiderlin out for the rest of the season and Southampton have Sunderland, Leicester and Villa still to play. A weakened Southampton could have an impact on the run-in.
  19. As everyone else says, it was an amazing day. Atmosphere was just incresible, like nothing I can remember - and the Liverpool fans might as well not have been there. Surprised how many people were singing along to Aston Villa That's Who, which surprised me by actually not sounding as naff as I expected it to! Shoutout to the guys a few rows behind who were singing 'Jack Grealish, he grows his own veg' :-) Wonderful day. Shame the final probably won't recapture that atmosphere if it has reduced ticket allocation, but should still be amazing.
  20. That hyped-up youngster that Sherwood is claiming to have brought through is going to cause havoc in defence isn't he? Probably going to score some sort of wonder goal too. Therefore my prediction is: Spurs 0 - Villa 1 (Grealish)
  21. Awwww.... how disappointing. Up to us now to spare the nation from a Gerrard Final.
