This is all completely irrelevant. We’ve got Emi Martinez, so only need to score one pen to win any shootout.

Is it safe to look at this thread again?

I’ve honestly not been this nervous for a game since the playoff final.

Their investment is for a minority stake of V Sports, right? So I’m gonna assume they now own a small percentage of V Sports, which owns 100% of Aston Villa. It’s just the new investor has a small share of the holding company. I’m also going to assume that their investment is relatively short-term. It’s a cash injection for club infrastructure, on the understanding that the club’s onward trajectory and higher value as a result (along with the increased value of Villa Park as an asset once redeveloped) will mean they get a higher return in the future. To me, it just seems like a sensible alternative for NSWE to getting a loan with a high interest rate, or using their own money which will currently be giving them a nice juicy interest too. Of course, they’re far better businessmen than me and I could be bang off, but this is how I’m reading into it.

I’ve had a quick look through the threads and I can’t find anything similar… Tonight wasn’t vintage and you could clearly see it was our fourth game in 10 days, but that City performance and then following it up with that? Wow. For me, City was the best performance I’ve seen from a Villa team since my first game at VP in 2001/02 (Villa 2 - 0 Blackburn). I’d be interested to hear from our older fans - where do our current performances rank amongst the greatest you’ve seen?

He played for Nottingham Panthers?

It was John Gregory, and still our longest unbeaten run to start a season I believe. It came after we sold Yorke to Utd. “If I had a gun, I’d have shot him”. I might be wrong and my seasons might be getting mixed up… I was a young whippersnapper and just starting to get interested in football. Dion Dublin and Julian Joachim were my gods. But I think that was it.

Mr Maverick. I love him*. *As an impact sub

Cracking comeback x2. Did you press ‘submit reply’ and then think ‘ahh shit, I wish I’d said that’? Get behind the team and stop being a muppet, you might enjoy it. You’re the type of person who sits in the upper Doug, drinking their warm beer and moaning about how bright the floodlights are.

Gareth Southgate after a few years on the dole?

Have a rest buttercup.
