  1. Yes a lovely lady who also did her best to teach aids-ravaged areas of Africa that condoms are bad
  2. You've pointed out that football fans can be fickle: which is something any regular visitor to this forum (or any football forum) will know. Not sure why raising our fame and reputation around the world is a problem. I wonder what the real issue could be
  3. Think some of our own 'real fans' could learn a thing or two about support, judging by that video clip. There's no question who I'd rather be standing next to in the holte
  4. Would love to see an eye roll reaction emoji added to the options
  5. I heard Benteke loves a game of Wawhammer, -Sorry 'warhammer'
  6. Class act, and obviously up for the challenge here even with his glittering CV. Already looks settled and a commanding presence for us which is quite remarkable Well done to everyone at the club involved with bringing Pepe in
  7. Well we're joint top of the form table now for points taken in the last 1 games
  8. Just 9 points off a euro cup place now! Keep the faith!

    The fans did. Quite quickly I seem to remember. The new guys took the fall. Seems we've not learned from that. But what do you expect, we're Aston villa don't you know and we won the European cup, still fresh in the memory; hasn't even been 40 years yet. It would be too embarrassing to admit that other clubs have stronger more settled squads than us this season
  10. This is a six pointer, so I'll be happy with a draw and three points
  11. I feel somewhat put at ease to hear that Scouting guru Josh Williams has said that 'For just £8.5m, Samatta has the quality to save Villa's season.'
  12. Tosun has moved to palace on loan, Benteke is probably on his way somewhere this window
  13. Oh look, more hilarious gags about Wes. Well we won't see him again on the pitch this season, so maybe now's a good time to try and write some new material
  14. Not convinced. Think we'll struggle to motivate him. We will see.
  15. I blame the Football Manager games; they're far too easy and lead everyone to think they're an expert (me included) Clearly Smith just needs to set his pre-match tactical instructions to: 'retain possession' 'keep a clean sheet' 'score some goals'
  16. Expecting; no. Anticipating the possibility; yes. And we haven't been relegated yet. We could easily be bottom and well adrift given the rebuild required. As it stands we're still in the mix and have a chance of staying up if we can rediscover earlier form and capitalise by holding our nerve
  17. Not sure what you mean mate But I was just trying to make a point that a quick fix this season MIGHT (and it's a big might in my opinion given the unknowns in the squad), but likely we'll be in a relegation fight again next year I'd prefer to see a period of stability where we're trying to implement a proper philosophy (something many have called out for), rather than cacking ourselves at the first sign of trouble. We may well go down, but if our owners are serious then it shouldn't be an issue.
  18. Agreed. It worked wonders when we employed Tim Sherwood, and the next season... Oh hang on...
  19. It's that time of year isn't it mate. lots of disappointment caused by unrealistic expectations Fortunately the schools start back soon.
  20. So annoyed that our hesitation to sack Smith has led to us missing out on both Moyes and Pearson At this rate all the best crap managers will be taken by our rivals Fingers crossed Norwich don't nick Steve McLaren from us or we really are doomed
  21. I bet some of you guys never get invited to parties - Thats probably Wes' fault too no doubt
