    Those vouchers are really an excellent decision by the club. It's a nice reward for season ticket holders. I'm already with Sky, so I hope that they do something for the games on BT as well, but that's probably expecting a bit too much.... Well done to the club in any case, I bet not every club is being as generous with it's season ticket holders. :)  

    If anyone wants a set of codes PM me as got one lot spare. Only fair way is first come first served and apologies the those who miss out

    I’d like to feel the same way but I think he’s out of his depth. When he does leave he will always be remembered fondly for how he got us promoted and how he has always conducted himself.   I think he will manage us until the end of the season and part way regardless of outcome. Hopefully it’s after coming us in the league. 

    You make a very valid point. I suppose after all the years of let down Last season made me happy, I loved the togetherness of the club, the support the management. Really do not want to go back to how it was after having a taste of what it means to be a villa supporter again, Not just for me but for my lads as well

    Some story that would be after the heroics of last season coming again and putting a similar shift in and keeping us up

    He ain’t getting sacked!!

    Correct he’s going nowhere regardless of what division are in next season. If we can stay up I think you go on and become a management legend at Villa Park. I have never wanted anyone to succeed as much as him with the possible exception of Brian Little. He is a nice guy, he is one of us and I believe once he has found his feet he will achieve greatness in this division.

    Honestly you have been a consistent critic of Smith for months, I have been a consistent defender. The balance of evidence supports your views not mine.

    Sadly I think we are reaching that time. I hope not, I hope we win all our remaining games. But changing manager is one of the very few cards we have left to play if we want to stay in this division.

    I agree if we have the same pretty poor performance on weds as we were seeing before this disaster happened then yeah, its probably time for Smith to go or for us to make plans for next year in the Championship. 

    I will note in a COVID world I dont see much revenue for non TV based leagues. And as we know all too well, the Championship TV revenues and coverage is pathetic. If we go down its going to be a lot worse than last time. 

     

    If that is the case they will have to suspend FFP until crowds can return. It’s the only fair thing to do and if they do we will be fine

    Playing defensive savvy football .....is not the same as parking the bus...its a euphemism that is inaccurate.

    We can shut teams out and still score goals......the secret is in the turnover.

    If we get after them in midfield and turn the ball over, we will be launching attacks.

    playing defensive savvy football is not the myth that some would have you believe, it can be very entertaining.

    We need to get the ball down the flanks and knock it in to the man on the back stick

    Drove past New Life in Cannock this morning, queuing round the block and beyond. Wow that is what I call a multiracial customer base 

  8. I agree Curry did look unbeatable, If I recall he admitted having problems making the weight after the Honeyghan fight and moved up to super welterweight/light middle. Was never the same again. I understand Honeyghan not wanting to fight Laing But it would’ve made for a great domestic dust off. Allegedly Laing used to smoke a bit of the herb before fights Which might explain his up-and-down performance levels

    So what will they be doing to 'decorate' the stands? I saw on Twitter that if you liked a certain post from the official club account your avatar picture would be added to some kind of mosaic to be displayed in the ground. Not sure how this will work. I guess they could have flags and scarves draped over the seats too.

    My own idea was that fans could have been invited to make an effigy of themselves that could be sat on the seats. 😀 Then not long after that Gladbach came up with the cardboard cut-out idea which I guess would've been more practical but less fun.

     

    They were asking for 10 second videos of you celebrating like we have got a last minute winner with as many flags and scarves in place as possible, My two lads did one but not sure if they are going to be used?

  10. Good night chaps, when you start quoting Polish people into black lives matter arguments I give up. I won’t give you an anecdote about Polish people I know because it will be shut down because it’s bollocks according to you. Ask a Polish person in the community what happens when someone steps out of line, especially in London regardless of race  and your have you answer. I noticed nobody has put up any images of single BLM Protesters being picked on by a mob. Good luck with that one

    These fascists literally just show up to these protests to start fights and agitate, that's their whole MO. They aren't there for anything else. On both sides of the Atlantic. At least in Britain they don't come armed to the teeth and are always liable to have their shit kicked in.

    Are you really trying to say that’s acceptable behaviour, For all the huffing and puffing of the alleged fascists show me one video when one black person Has been set up on in this manner. Show me Please

    This both sides stuff is not only nonsense, but dangerous. The extreme right are literal Nazis and had people jailed just last week for a murdererous terrorist plot while some from the "extreme left" will probably be getting a summons for vandalism next week and will have to do some community service because they took "extreme" measures to get the radical point across that slavers and racists shouldn't be celebrated.

    Having two sides  that are bad does not fit the agenda unfortunately for some, this is far and away the most dangerous thing, Like I said before racism in this country is a strict minority and anybody that claims different is a liar, We are not American thank God. Nobody that is alive today owns a slave And nobody today in this country that am I aware of is a slave, having been brought up in the 70s I probably have a different take on it because things were different then, and I’m not saying that they were right. Aston Villa is a football club has always had interracial support and even the football firms of the club are rich with colour and ethnic diversity, which again does not fit the agenda. A car has a large front windscreen to look forward and a small mirror to look behind. I’m sick of this nonsense We have learned from our mistakes And corrected things as time has gone on. To suggest any different in again highly dangerous

    Quite enjoy what happened at Waterloo moments earlier, all those dickheads from today about to train it back to Dorset, just got taken apart by some anti fascist Londoners - best bit is they simply waited for them to get drunk. Too easy.

    Here they are delivering a casualty to Police for some much needed medical attention

    This is something that confused me. How can anyone drink that much Fosters and Carling (tempted to end the sentence there) – and also how can anyone get drunk enough on it to make them that lary.

    Drink kraken chasers with it, I did last night and my head feels like it’s going to explode and I want to cry

    So you're saying we shouldn't have a right to protest for fear of triggering a bunch of far right words removed? I thought a right to protest was part of democracy.

    Where do i say that

    Last week was a minority of bell-ends. Nobody in today's faction turned up for a peaceful reason. They all came prepared to fight. 

    As a direct result of the actions last week. Anyone with half a brain could see it was like poking a hornets nest with only one probable outcome, We’ve been here so many bloody times in the past
