  1. I would prefer the coffee machine to Barton.

    911 was a big disaster for America. Today is the 9th of November.....
  3. Amavi is a " gun" player. Its better to have him and not need him than need him and not have him. With that in mind, we should look for backup in January, because it would be bad news if he is injured. Probably someone versatile who can play both sides of the pitch.

    Lecter, the Joker, and Hobgoblin are the only ones that I can recognise that are American citizens. The rest will be deported.
  5. Not an Oasis fan. Cant they play Jedward instead?
  6. Probably motivated. " When Gabby scores a goal, I am gonna go get me a hat trick." Or, they form a partnership that tears this league a new one.
  7. Just listened to the song Easy Street by Jim Bianco and Petra Haden. In fairness, it is a pleasant enough song, but after last night's episode, its creepy.
  8. We will have so much interest in those games, probably more than any games in recent history. If we do get promoted, I will have a smile so wide, the top of my head will fall off.
  9. The thought of us in a play off spot could be quite nerve racking. Other than also Newcastle and possibly Norwich, if any other team loses in the play offs, it would probably be a case of " Oh well, try again next year". We have placed so much pressure on ourselves, even before the first ball was kicked this season. What could be worse than losing in the play offs? Losing in the play offs, finishing less than 6 points from an automatic promotion spot, and losing our shit over what could have/should have at the beginning of the season.
  10. They may be our future. Time and experience will tell. However, we are in the Championship, making up for lost points, and trying to get ourselves back in the Premier League. We need to focus on now. Bruce sees the players on a regular basis more than we do, so I will trust his decisions on who we should play up front. He has made the right calls so far, so I have a sneaking suspicion he might be ITK.
  11. Can we at least grasp the notion that criticism of a player and booing a player are different animals? Criticising players comes natural in any sport, and is what makes sport forums able to turn on their axis. It points out their weaknesses. It leaves the door open for improvement for the relationship between fan and player, and if a player was able to improve their form or that part of their game, then that relationship is improved ( see: Jedinak. Gardner.) If the player hears or reads criticisms from fans, he has choices with how he can respond. He could take it on board, justify or vindicate himself, or he could choose to ignore it. Booing doesn't do any of this. Booing is a monosyllabic noise farted out from idiots mouths to express their displeasure, without actually expressing what exactly that displeasure is. The choices the player had to respond are no longer available. They just know that the fans don't like him, and he is damned either way whether he puts in a good shift or not. I think booing Westwood is passive aggressive pack mentality bullshit. Any animal can make a noise. Criticism, along with praise, offers hope, and if backed up, is actually constructive.
  12. Its a shame I can only like this post once. I just want him to do well. He can and has played better in the past than he has so far this season. He doesn't deserve the crap he gets from the knuckleheads in the peanut gallery. No Villa player should. Hopefully he is strong enough to rise above it and starts to show some good form on the pitch.

    Dogs...

    Sure proof that dogs are better than women. Lock your dog and your girlfriend in the boot of the car. Wait an hour, then open the boot. Which one is happy to see you?

    Vaping

    The truth is, anything inhaled over a lengthy period with regular frequency can cause harm. The human body is not meant to intake and break down substances through inhalation, other than the ol' O2 to CO2. Just about any solid or liquid substance contains carcinogens. Whether it be tobacco, cannabis, or even dried mown grass, there will be a substance contained that will cause the body's cells to go mad. Vaping is only reasonably new, but health risks are inevitable.
  15. Closet small heath fans? That would be a twist.
  16. Westwood is disappointing, but our own fans booing him is even more so.
  17. I would rather wait and see, and see how adaptable he is. He is in a different environment and team situation, but may still have a lot to offer.
  18. Dare we say it? Villa have a goal machine?
  19. Even if its only Villa 1-0, have a happy birthday anyway.

    Carles Gil

    Funny thing is, when I think of Gil, the most memorable thing from his time here didn't occur on the pitch. It was the video of the fans abusing the players while getting on the bus after the Wycombe away game last season. Everyone hung shit on Bacuna and Richards when they came out, but when Gil came out, everyone cheered. He had this look on his face, as if he was asking " What have I done?". This pretty much was my thought. If this is what I think when I when I think of Carles Gil, what exactly has he done?
  21. Forget Delph. This scum was our team captain, signed a new contract with Villa while gushing his loyalty, then signed one a week later with Man City. He has done a hundred times worse in disrespecting Villa than Gabby has supposedly indirectly done by getting out of shape. There should be no foreseeable circumstance in which Delph should ever come back. If it was on a free, it would cost Villa dignity and respect. If Villa actually pay money for him, then dignity and respect would be null and void.
  22. Clayton Donaldson Almost our best player last week.
  23. Teodorczyk Teodorczyk Your mother's sick In the kitchen sink We cant think Of what the hell rhymes With Teodorczyk. ....something, something, something.
