Oddities occur in the strangest of places mate. 

Just thought id post this on here to see if anyone else has a pot luck meeting of another villa fan they would like to share....

So it's starts, my boy came down with an eye infection at 12pm yesterday just as I was about to settle into the game. after a quick diagnosis we realised it was necessary to take him to the kids a&e. me and the wife take it in turns with these visits as we have another child, and sods law has it that it's my turn. so I get down there, thru triage and I'm waiting in the holding area for my boy to be seen. can't get a signal for the life of me, and last time I heard we where at 1-1. bloke sitting to the right if me had brought his little boy in too and I notice him ask his missus if he could use her phone to check the scores. on the off chance that he had seen the championship scores I asked him about the villa. to his surprise and mine it turns out his day had taken the same twist as mine and he was due to take his boy to the game! now this may not see too random until I tell you that we were both sitting in the royal hospital at Derby! anyway, if your reading this I hope your boy is better.... we were lucky and got out just before six.

You do know the tensile strength of a spiders Web compared gram for gram to other substances don't you?

Agree with most of this but playing width and then selecting Kodjia over Gestede is daft IMO.  I think we should be narrower (as I said earlier) - our players don't beat their men down the outside anyway.  Sit Ayew and McCormack behind Kodjia then Grealish behind those guys.  Almost an attacking diamond ahead of a back 4 and "sitting" 2 midfielders.

This!

Anyone know what is going on with this guy

yes but our signings last season proved was a big difference from Ligue 1 to Premier League

True.. Although gueye may prove otherwise this season in a stronger Premier league team 

We need to remember his stats in the season prior to the summer we bought him. I may be wrong but I believe his defensive stats were among the best in L1?

Gk: Gollini (reluctantly)

Cb: chester

Cb: elphick 

Cb: Baker 

Lwb: amavi 

Rwb: rdl 

Cm: jedinak

Aml: grealish 

Amr: adomah

Does anyone else check the fifa forums when hearing of a player for the first time?

lets not forget the keeper situation needs addressing

Last year:

Hutton - lescott- Richards- Cissokho

Bacuna- Gana-  westwood  richardson

                Ayew

           Gestede.

that makes me feel sick

he's in manchester according to his instagram, looking like a pr*ck

i mentioned Balotelli earlier in this thread. Doesnt seem so far fetched now... cant really think who else it could be if we take the good Dr's words as gospel. On his day MB is world class

isnt it! the wife and i have just made ep 5. How on earth this man can still be in jail is beyond me. 

Has anyone watched this yet? if not I highly recommend!

Ballotelli considering wolves or port vale?! any takers?

I watched the game last night. I can honestly say that micah Richards performance was up there with Ali dia's cameo for soupthhampton in 96. What a complete cluster f*** of a man.

Always thought of him as a bit of an Nzogbia.  

Apparently baggie fans really rate him and although pulis kept them up, where unhappy he was dropped. Go back even further and Sunderland fans couldn't believe Di canio sold him. 

Wouldn't mind sessegnon, on a free? 

1st post checking in here :-)

I think we should be looking at beram kayal from Brighton for the holding role, did anyone see him play last season? 

Apparently available for 1.5m due to last year of contract
