  1. To my mind he is trying to hard to impress, with a season long lone and an option to buy he is under pressure to make an impact as soon as possible, where as if he had been transfered with a 3 or 4 year contract the pressure is off to a certain degree knowing there is time to make an impact. not many players settle straight into a new team in a different country. Hell i remember Ken Mcnaughts first season with us awful and that was only moving 70 miles . I think he needs time and should be judged at the end of the season. Emery seems to see something after all
  2. we conceded 4 at home to a relagated Leicester and Emery sorted it.
  3. If we had had a better pair of centre backs that year we would of been in with a shout of the title. Scored goals for fun that season.
  4. 1, Brian Little 2, Paul McGrath 3, Andy Gray mk1 4, Alex Cropley 5 Gordan Cowans
  5. Well they were showing video of him taking part in coaching outhere during our OZ tour, and he was speaking to plenty of them after the game at Optus on Saturday,
  6. Think the club was genuinly suprised by the amount and passion of the support out here.
  7. The year we finished top 6 under Brian Little think we lost all pre season
  8. I'm not tech minded but we have a smart dns and can watch all UK tv from here in Australia, It is on free to air TV over here on ch 10 Bold i believe, so if you set up a smart DNS or the like you might be able to watch it.
  9. WTF scousers doing there, fair few of us missed on tickets because of those rocket polishers.
  10. Yeh we're going to Raffles Friday, and Saturday until 2, then the Globe
  11. Certainly in man management terms, i don't think you f@$k Gerrard about. But how you can interpret @TRO comment as an over all comparison is disingenuous
  12. Yep i agree, was ambivalent about Gerrard as a person, didn't know much about him to be honest other than he wasn't a big time Charlie. But watched the doco Make us dream on Amazon and i like the cut of his jib, seems a thoughly decent person, and other than playing for Liverpool and handing our arses to us a few times i don't see what there isn't to like.
  13. Raffles has a Villa Legends night on the Friday no details yet. Raffles is close to the train and would take about 40 minutes to get to Optus. There a many Bars within walking distance of Optus and a great brewery ( Blasta ) only one stop down at Burswood on the train.
  14. Got 6 tickets in the Villa section, game sold out. Fantastic stadium BUT only sell mid strength beer BUT some great bars and breweries very close. Waiting on info about legends night at Raffles.
  15. No unfortunately not could fill a box with my tribe.Can't wait my Bday next day too what a present. Plus we have the best game too
  16. Yep confirmed Villa, Man Utd, Leeds and Palace all coming downunder including Perth.
  17. What if a number of those players are at their limit. Maybe a number of our squad are lower to mid premier league standard. I think it's a fallacy that it's just accepted you should be able to improve with coaching.
  18. Think Dean's time had come but any new manager apart from the elite few comes with risks, one thing with Gerrard is he will be putting himself under a lot of pressure to be successful, because if he is not he can kiss his Liverpool job goodbye. Still better than having the usual suspects.
  19. My first game was Norwich at home in 67. Best ever Villa player in those 54 years in my opinion. Goal that sticks in my mind is the 2nd goal v Sunderland April 75 at a packed 57000 Villa park.
