If Ive understood correctly what you mean, then I’d agree with you completely. Since moving to The Highlands we are now 460 miles, if google maps are accurate, from our door to the Holte End and so after years of being a season ticket holder I am now an armchair fan. However in a deal negotiated with my wife we got Sky with the Sports package. However since not many of our games are covered by Sky we recently cancelled Sky for this very reason. My wife once called me a beer swigging, football obsessed, workaholic, Brummy chancer. But I felt obliged to argue that I wasn’t football obsessed but admitted to being Villa obsessed and so Sky had to go. I have a Now TV app to watch Sky games on my phone but I can chose which ones I watch. We have Amazon Prime too in a separate deal so I see the odd game on a proper screen but that’s life and I love living in the Highlands so if this is the down side I can happily live with it. But choice of what games we watch is indeed the future. We’re neither rich or skint but we want what we pay for, which I think most people do I know we should all be grateful to Sky for inventing football in 1992 but the world has moved on and as a modern man, I want it all and I want it now, please and by all I mean it’s all about Villa. Not now not in the past or the future, just always thank you and that won’t change with our league position either. I’d settle for a place in the top 1 though! UTV!!!!!

Reduced capacity while we develop more capacity in the long term is a short term problem which we will have to live with I’m afraid.
-
Supply and demand I’d image will always be given as a reason/excuse. I suppose the on pitch product has dramatically improved and long may that continue please Unai! But if the club can squeeze a bit more from other sources, surely that’s hit to be good for all of us?
-
I’d like to hear from @Follyfoot himself as to wether he was ever sweet let alone innocent, splendid chap though I’m sure he is and always has been!
-
It certainly seems a long way from any of the Christian Purslow’s plans to raise the club’s income by charging more to supporters during a cost of living crisis. The arrival of Heck and his US connections along with connections that Wes also already had now seems to make a lot of sense. Modern high powered business in a USA style is now at the forefront of the club’s expansion and development. Thanks Wes and of course Nas who knows his way round a proper business deal too.

I agree but it’s easy enough to ask Unai but it’s not so easy to do it. Fortunately Unai is more than capable of doing it and hopefully he has also kept an eye on our next challenge in West London, which I’m sure he has. Not an easy game straight after a European midweek game and on the back of the run of games we’ve just had but it’s generally easier to play when you’re winning games but against high energy teams it’s tricky and we’ll need plenty of energy and control to get what we want on Sunday. We’re in good hands though, another three points and perhaps we can really start to dream big!
-
That’s because our defenders are cultured and like to control the game and calmly stroke the ball forward, without any desperate lunging with or without conviction. They have conviction with what the Sultan has taught them and with the ability of the best goalkeeper in the world to keep our sheet clean!
-
That’s impressive provided that we spend a similar amount to increase the depth and quality of our squad. Big credit to the development department is definitely due though, over to Monchi and crew now I guess. I’m pretty confident that we will spend the money wisely now, especially with the sultan drawing up the shopping list.
-
Perhaps he has the same agent as Delph and could be here by this time next week?
-
Reading some of the comments on here. I’m just relieved that we haven’t become entitled, as many of our neighbours would happily point out at the first opportunity.

Are you suggesting that we need to strengthen our squad in January? I’m not sure thst some of the other posters in here would contemplate such a reckless attitude. If 13 was a big enough squad in1981,surely it’s big enough now? I hear them recite as they rock themselves to sleep.

To improve us we have to shop in Harrods now not in the bargain basement of Poundland. You get what you pay for generally.
-
You’re forgetting the one rule for some rules. Although you may well be factually correct in this case.
-
I’m pretty sure Nassif makes decisions on what’s good for his club and doesn’t hold any antisemitic views
-
I think it’s currently safe to say that we are in a good place football and business wise, so we can be relaxed about any decision made by the major decision makers at our club, which fortunately doesn’t include ourselves. But does include Monchi, Unai and our switched on owners.

Perhaps his source is no longer at the club?
-
They’re both forgiven and additionally therefore have our sympathy. Because that’s polite. Which of course we are, bring British.
-
But that’s not British etiquette and so therefore doesn’t count, they’re just foreigners being foreign.

All the ducks are lining up!!!To the point that that it’s becoming written in the stars. Next signing, new cabinet maker! UTV!!!!!!

With our recent schedule of games could you seriously see him being physically capable of contributing anything to us at anything like tge standard required He’d have been a total passenger in the last two PL games and we couldn’t afford passengers in either of those two games. A very expensive luxury player I’m afraid.

Then you need to keep on your toes!

I also used to know a bloke who due ro the end of his todger getting narrower at times, could generate very high pressure piss and could piss over the top of the cubicle in the pub toilet. You had to keep an eye on who’d gone to the bog before you went so you could stay away from the trap in his range! He was also quite horsey and used to drive horse carriages like Prince Philip who he was friends with. I’ve heard stories of him winning bets with people l, not the Duke of Edinburgh, that he could clear his horse box with a piss. He was one of those blokes who could make you laugh, just by walking into the room, usually a pub! He was a successful industrialist so he had a few quid and used to have an impressive collection of Jags and would often drive a very nice, wire wheel, red E Type. He also claimed when he bought his wife a new Jag estate, that it was saving him a fortune as she could get much fewer plants in the Jag, on a trip to the garden centre, than she used to get in her Mitsubishi pick up! Man maths at it’s finest!

My mate is a noted farter at home, at work and in the pub noted for both volume in sound and the horrendous stink he can proudly produce. His wife still loves him though! Although he pushes his luck at times. He largely blames me if he gets home late and/or particularly pissed! His reason being, in his own words, “she can see no fault in you” and so instead of convincing her otherwise he uses my status as resident angel, to his advantage! My wife holds him in similar esteem but he’s careful never to inflict his rancid farts on her, which for the same self preservation reasons I encourage too! That and we’re often all in the same car together!
