  1. 6 wins in 22 games is not "OK". By all means im happy we won today as wins are as rare as rocking horse shite under McLeish. But cmon he has not be doing OK by any means.
  2. Ppl who slag off Bent were and are demented. Ive consistently said that. Yes he doesnt create much of his own goals and is prone to missing a sitter every while but he is like Andy Cole . A no nonsense good finisher and gets into right positions from his own movement to score all the time but dont expect much else . He is instinctive - something that cant be taught. Unfortunately we flogged his normal service in Ashley Young and Downing last summer ..but hes still scoring even under this manager. Hes done it his whole career in Prem and at less fashionable clubs than ourselves - feed him and he will score goals- it is as simple as that. Liverpool spending £30 million on Andy Carrol was always and still is hilarious.
  3. Indeed. It's amazing how reluctant you are, for instance, to refer to O'Neill (be it directly or indirectly) when discussing the Villa in the here and now. He does seem obsessed with MON
  4. well we should all savor these victories as they are as rare as hens teeth under McLeish.
  5. Houllier had lot of injuries last christmas. He was past it and did shit last season but he was a proper manager with some caliber and pedigree. McLeish is just shit.
  6. Good second goal by Keane. Anything that could go wrong did go wrong for Wolves in 2nd half. Good result against a 10 man Wolves side espeicially given other results today. 6 wins in 22 games is still remarkably dire and sooner McLeish goes the better.
  7. Luckily its only 2-1 Wolves could have scored a load at one point.
  8. very good liked the Hutton is the Scottish Cafu and the Holland references. lol
  9. No. Would be a big backwards step for either WBA or Wolves to go from Roy Hodgson , Mick McCarthy to McLeish.
  10. I would ban players using twitter if i was a manager. Barton quoting Neitzche , Sigmund Freud months back when leaving Newcastle was hilarious tho. Complete prat.
  11. Don't agree at all. It remains to be seen whether this lad will fulfil the potential he once showed. We certainly don't have the scope at present in the Villa side to give him some games to see if he is going to make it or not - we simply don't have enough points to play with. So a loan spell seems the perfect solution to give him some game time and allow him to show what he can do and build up his confidence/match readiness. And if he doesn't develop to Premiership level, there is a good chance Leeds would take him back, I guess. Good management by McLeish I would say. It just seems a joke we bought him for millions from Leeds and now we are loaning him back to Leeds. are Delph , Makoun really that bad? OK to be fair to McLeish yes he did give Delph a run in the side early this season and he was pretty awful. He did look good and promising before his injury tho.
  12. Yeh maybe we can sign Robbie Fowler or Darren Huckerby onloan for five games or so for a million quid or something.
  13. Having seen this particular pic - i am bit concerned about this film now. The corridor looks shit in those pics. Like plastic. The potential space jockey suit / statue in background also looks shit. The space jockey in Alien 1 was massive -so id presumme their suits were - and altho Ridley Scott did imply they might have had some sort of space suit in his commentaries for Alien 1 those in that pic just look crap , very un-Giger like and far too standard looking. Pic could be taken out of context - could be behind the scenes pic rather than in film pic - but seems like Fox did release that promo shot for a magazine (i forget which one) and was a put together pic . Am bit concerned now - Is Ridley Scott about to inadvertly take a big dump all over his finest film and the original Alien / space jockey mythology? I hope not.
