  1. Yes! Halcyon days. And then we signed Mathieu Berson and Eric Djemba-Djemba and that was the end of that brief bump.
  2. Swedish - Olof Mellberg Danish - Martin Laursen
  3. Never warmed to Purslow and like him even less now.
  4. I would imagine the owners are highly reluctant to sign off on big money signings for a manager who's on extremely thin ice.
  5. Never let the truth get in the way of a good Tweet mate.
  6. Why would anyone, by that logic? It's not like he's pulling up trees at Wolves. Pretty sure many said Coutinho would never consider us, then he signed. I wouldn't have expected Everton captain Digne to join us either, but he did. Ings is another that surprised me. People are talking about Tielemans and Diallo. Perhaps they're out of teach too, but Neves is honestly no further out of reach.
  7. I don't see Poch wanting to come here under any circumstances tbh. Would be amazing though.
  8. I'd have Potter in a heartbeat, I think he'd come here too. But we'd need to act very fast and give him certain assurances about players he might want to bring with him/buy in January. With Purslow's love for all things Slippy, I can't see us having put out the feelers yet, and we're risking a situation where Brighton are miles ahead of us in the table. At which point, he probably won't want to give that up for us.
  9. A bit like getting a Valentine's card from your mum, and just as useless and embarrassing in every way
  10. Absolutely despise the fact that a club like West Ham are out there signing Paqueta and we're here ONCE AGAIN in a state of chaos debating who the next manager should be. FFS get the Scouse clown sacked and get lining up the new boss ASAP Villa.
  11. You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain.
  12. It's a disgrace he's still in charge.
  13. Indeed. Chelsea are not in a good way this season. They will struggle for top 4.
  14. I'm just hoping there's been some mixup and Stevie was talking about how excited he is to buy a few seasons' worth of Dawson's Creek to watch after he gets his P45.
  15. I don't care if it destroys Gerrard. He's destroying Villa.
  16. Or you could take the other view and hypothesize that Purslow was willing to offer him a crazy deal to bring him here. Remember he was top of the league with Rangers and playing in in a Europa League they almost ended up winning. He'll have been offered handsome terms to take the Villa job by his best pal Christian, who is not quite the shrewd mover that some seem to believe he is.
  17. Would be a disaster if they kept him any longer but I can't see him being sacked now either. Purslow's probably already been on the phone stroking his ego. "You've got this Stevie, we're all behind you, some figuratively, me literally. I'm behind you right now. Calling from up your arse, where my head is firmly lodged."
  18. TWO CBs? That's just madness. We already have 4 and one out on loan.
  19. People were saying at half time that West Ham would be asking questions of Moyes as to why things were so bad and that we were in control of the game. I said West Ham knew exactly what they were doing, there was a game plan being executed and they would catch us on the break second half and win. Lo and behold. If I can see it, and it's plain as day, how could Steven not? Dirt manager. We're going down if we stick with him.
