  1. No doubt if he was employed in a role similar to his last be could've brought some more revenue in. The CEO role was too much for him and his reputation is now too far gone to go back to that role with us.
  2. Could have been useful employed as a commercial man as at Arsenal but how on earth he landed the CEO job baffles me. Good riddance to more expensive waste. I just hope he's replaced by someone who knows what they're doing.
  3. He is a prize ***** from what I've seen of him and it does no favours in getting fans back onside. However, just because he's on the board, it doesn't mean he is the board. Surely decisions will be made as a group, and having Bernstein and King at the same table gives me more confidence that Krulak won't be calling the shots. I get that Lerner wants someone he trusts (quite why God only knows), let's just hope he keeps his mouth shut and doesn't get in the way. Maybe they can set up on call of duty in the corner while the grown ups talk business.
  4. I love how in nearly all of Deano's photos, he's got his tongue stuck out
  5. I was so full of hope for Nilis when this one went in.
  6. There were some class goals scored by Villa that season. Steve Stauntons at Old Trafford also stands out.
  7. At worst if he's only there to remind the board what a club like Villa expect and how to act with class, then it's still a good appointment.
  8. Ah my memory eludes me! I was only about 12 but remember going bezerk and showing off at school about it next day.
  9. Phil King's winning penalty at the San Siro, those were the days!
  10. Ah the coca-cola cup finals, stop it now you're making me pine for something that's like an impossible dream for us nowadays.
  11. Was a great goal by Dalian that Wimbledon one, the photo made even more special.
  12. Lived in Telford for 28 years, moved to South Yorkshire to live with my fiancé 8 years ago. Never missed Telford once, best thing I ever did.
  13. We'll probably end up with Sschteve McLaren!
  14. I've got no problem with signing lower league players, IF they are the quality ones that perform for their clubs. We've signed too many that aren't even the best at their league 1 club! Westwood, Lowton, Stevens, Bennett, Bunn to name a few
  15. Bacuna.. No.. Westwood! No, erm Veretout... Erm yep absolutely no one! We're soon to be a championship team so he will come very much in handy. We just need to make sure there's a positive, motivated vibe around next years team so he can flourish. Easier said than done I know.
  16. Whatever he did, he didn't do it well. Maybe not all his fault as it seemed he was operating in a new role to him, it seems the board are making changes in the right direction. Time will tell and of course the leadership is only the start, but if they can get that right and follow up with backing for the manager, then maybe we can start to change things.
  17. Cracking goal! I'm quite looking forward to Gardner playing for us next season, hope he stays fit and cements a first team place.
  18. I'm getting carried away with myself! I'm in the hotel tomorrow, just wishing it was tonight I'm disappointed now.
  19. My daughter loves this game, she's not stopped talking about it since it was released. Now she's got it I haven't seen her in a week! I've a had an hour with her playing it and I must say it looks good. Plenty of map to explore and it's a good change from guns, missiles and the like.
  20. Just wanted to wish you lads that are going to walk out tonight good luck. I'm behind what you're doing and even if it doesn't make a difference this week, it could be the start of something bigger once it gains momentum. Simply doing nothing will achieve nothing. UTV and OTDO74! I'm off on holiday tomorrow so won't be joining you but as I'm in a hotel at the airport tonight I'll try and get a stream on my phone. About 74 minutes in will be when my misuss is getting pissed off with me watching it and I'll probably be walking out the hotel door on 74 and heading to the bar
  21. I might be way off the mark but I seem to think it came up whenLerner first wanted to sell and at the time it was what he'd paid for the club plus a chunk of what he'd put into it at that time. There was talk that he wanted to recoup what he'd spent. Might be wrong though, he probably spent more than that then.
  22. Don't worry, you'll get plenty of chances to see them next season
  23. It's difficult to judge him too harshly what with the current mess he's walked into. Someone else could have come in and done better, they might not though. Who knows what might have happened. I'm not completely convinced he's the right man for next season, however as long as the board fully back him to create his own team then I'm happy to give him the chance. I like him as a person, and I think he has potential to do very well. Not with this squad though.
  24. There's a decent player in there somewhere, wouldn't be disappointed to see him stay on and form part of a new midfield. He reminds me a bit of NRC.
