    And this is where money always comes in to it. We have such a small squad that our season falls apart the moment we lose players.

    We have a decent sized squad, we just have that many injuries

    Seems reliable and likely this one.

    Apologies if covered previously, but does bringing in a free transfer have any bearing to PSR? Or is it completely “free” on the books?

    Wages, agent and signing on fees will count in the “books”

    For me our lion is rubbish and it needs an overhaul (where's Chip Foose when you need him) so I had a blast at trying to make him a bit more aggressive and lion esque

    Nice that you illustrated a unique lion. Good work.

    however, it’s too aggressive. Villa is not an aggressive club. We are an old club, a founding club. We are regal, noble and full of pride. 
     

    more akin to Richard the lion heart than X-men’s Sabretooth

    I tend to agree, but the argument against is basically: pundits have different purposes depending on the venue. The purpose of a halftime analyst between the ad breaks is to be a famous face smoothly giving a quick summary so that they can quickly move on to selling you beer and takeaway pizza. People who go into detail are literally bad for this role. The purpose of a MOTD analyst is likewise to be a famous face condensing one main talking point from a match into digestible analysis, so that a] people get the main idea of what happened, and b] people can talk about the game at work on Monday and say something that sounds sensible. The purpose of a journalist on a podcast or long-form radio like 'Premier League Sundays' is to go into detail and really drill down. For that, people need to be knowledgeable and able to talk in depth. 

    It's difficult to get both on to the same type of show, because Jonathan Wilson is going to struggle to condense his comments into a charismatic twenty-second soundbite and Steven Gerrard is going to struggle to give interesting analysis for an hour. 

    Ahh good point. Maybe I just want something more interesting from our standard pundit, than a scripted soundbite that all the other pundits say

    thats shit, the yellow busy stuff does nothing while they've kept the terrible shoulder line 

    That texture pattern looks like a medley of Manure’s Devil trident

  6. It does look like Chelsea have found their mojo… could be back in the mix for top 4 next season. 

    What would be a sad sight. I was hoping the whole Boley thing would implode and sink the club
