Has FFP been relaxed ? What are the terms I’ve missed that ...

Not sure if it’s been said on the thread before but on one of the Sky Sports Transfer programmes I think it was Rob Dorset who said out of 6 newly promoted teams who spent big over £100 million after being promoted only Fulham got relegated last season, every other one survived their first season. So to me it shows a complete lack of knowledge from these so called pundits who are only comparing us to Fulham and conveniently forgetting the other 5 ... (don’t know who they are by the way will have to do a bit of digging)

Anyone else already throwing stuff at the TV with the whining self appreciating biased drivel coming from Jamie carragher. The one thing I’m not looking forward to this year is the awful commentary teams sky have for the premier. Carragher shouldn’t even be in the job after what he did spitting at that young kid in the car ...

F***ing Hermes, ordered a training top yesterday morning (next day delivery) in the hope to have it for Saturday but also have input to this conversation. But no, bunch of words removed, saw the tracker update ‘Delivery attempt made....’ F@&£ off I’ve been home all day and not heard a squeak....
Hermes are shocking .. delivered a load of Lego to the wrong address for us we had to claim another lot back.

Is it only me or is the badge placed sligthly too high up on the shirt? Compred to last seasons kit it looks like the space between the top left edge of the badge and the collar is much shorter. Imagine the players clapping the badge after having scored, they would risk punching themselves on the throat by the look of it!
I think the badge seems smaller than last year as well. Only slightly but still smaller

My home shirt arrived, it's actually quite nice. Not a patch on last season mind.
The sleeve sponsor looks awful and is annoying, would have been better to have been an extra option.
Word of warning on the sizes, I always buy a large as it is then big enough to wear over a hoody/jumper in winter. This year's large completely fitted, no way I can wear anything underneath it.
I’ve been and bought my home shirt this morning. Unusually but XL or XXL depending on the fit. With the new shirt I tried both XL and XXL and found both to be fairly tight. Now I’m not a big guy but I’ve had to go XXXL just to get the shirt to feel comfortable on me and look right. That’s ridiculous because normally XXXL would be like a tent on me but it fits me just like an XL would in any other shirt I have.

So we had Arce and now we’re going to have Moreas. Arse and more arse.
I’m sure Oscar Arce played alongside Barry Hole !! Great partnership .. especially when they had a real stinker !!!!

Little bit of insider knowledge for you - his partner is unsure about moving to Birmingham. They've built a life in Bournemouth.
You'd be hopeful she will appreciate that it's a short career and they'll make the right decision based on that.
I know a pro footballer and his family (well the wife does) and the wives of footballers kind of know that they will probably be moving around a few times very much like families of servicemen but not in shitty married quarters obviously. What I’m saying is that the wives often put roots down in a particular area to give kids stability with schools and such like and the players will live in the area they play and travel back and forth on days off etc. I don’t think it’s a major problem like it may have been in the past. If she’s successful then I can see her running the business in Bournemouth while Tyrone plays for villa without any problem at all it’s only a 3hr drive after games on days off.

He might be on holiday and told us he would sign the contract when he comes back. What's the rush? We know Mings loves the Villa. If he plays like he did last season, but in the Premier League, I can see Southgate calling...
I said the same to a mate before the play offs. Whether he was with us next year or not I could see him playing for England within 12 months with the way he plays out from the back and moves forward ...

Martin Shaw from the professionals.. and John Taylor from Duran Duran
Taylor wore a Villa shirt when Duran Duran played at Villa Park in the 80’s

Hi guys .. and gals ... first time post after spending a long time watching afar and enjoying.
I think this time last year many of us were spending time saying we hoped Fulham would get promoted automatically so we avoided them in the play offs. This year I honestly truly do not feel that about any team we could face as long as we turn up which I think we will.
Baggies over 2 legs don’t frighten me but any team with Gayle in it poses a threat. Derby don’t bother me at all and Leeds, well yesterday showed we can handle them definitely over 2 legs. If it was Middlesbrough the worst thing that would bother menis the law of averages catching up with us after the 2 spankings they’ve had of us this year.
Either way when, not if, we go up this year it will rank with anything we’ve done success wise.
Cant wait !!!

Hi guys
been a long time watcher and thought now is the time to join in. 50 this year and been going down to VP and away since is was about 4-5. I’m told I fell asleep at my first villa game which was against Everton in the early 70s .. been a few more since then to be fair as well !! Seen the good and the bad times but absolutely feel the good times are coming back after a few years in the doldrums and want to get involved in a villa community that enjoys talking about the greatest club in football.
Fabiurite player well the name says it all, by far the greatest player amongst many to pull on the jersey.
Cant wait to join in with what could be an exciting few weeks ahead.

I’m 51 and can remember losing the likes of Cowans, Platt, Barry before and it is mildly annoying to say the least. If Jack does go and for me I still think it’s a big if, someone will replace him and be one the new Cowans, Platt, Barry or Grealish. Personally I think he will stay and the team will be built around him and he is fully in the know on who is being lined up and the calibre if possible new signings ...
