Villa 59

We're a real shit show today

Watkins has been terrible..weak as piss.

I should have said he moved to Brum 2 days after was born...hardly a Scouser!

You might even call it a transfer master stroke?

I agree!

BTW...Chambers is a very good footballer. For me, this will be a great. 'stand in' for Marv for now! 

No idea why anyone would turn their nose up at this signing. We've effectively signing a player for nothing who can play in 3 different positions. To me, it's great business!

Dear NSWE

This is a heartfelt plea

I have been attending matches at Villa Park for 63 years. Villa Park is the home of football!

Please don't demolish Villa Park in my lifetime!

Thank you

Thanks for that  Useless I know you have great knowledge of the academy along with BOF and OBE. love to keep in touch with the young ones!

O Leary for me. He seemed to hate us even when he managed us!

And no. I'm not fickle. I just don't like him!

The Gardner brothers....AKA bitter and twisted

I think that might be one of the key differences between hiring Gerrard as a head coach and hiring him as a manager. He's 'just' a head coach, so rearranging our academy is probably not within his job description.

Thanks BOF that's reassuring

Mark Harrison and his immediate staff are surely safe??

Yes, that's what I'm hoping has I feel that they've been great so far

I think we need to get 8 more wins this season to see us safe… hopefully Gerrard can get us there. 

We will need a lot for than 8 wins to survive mate as that only gets us to 3_ points!

Does our new manager mean the possibility of the academy staff being reviewed and changed at this point. I was hoping that the academy staff would be kept in its entirety  as I think they've done a great job up to now?

Not Gerrard related, well kinda is, but I wonder who will get the bigger reception on the day Smith returns to Villa park… Smith or Gerrard?

Ill make sure I’m at that game. Can’t wait to show him the love he deserves. 

Ive had a drink. 

What a strange question!

All this using us as a 'stepping stone' rubbish is really starting to annoy me...I would hope that anyone managing the Villa Is ambitious enough to want to manage at a higher level  otherwise I wouldn't want them anywhere near our clubl

If I know Dean, he would have said “yeah” before the no. It’s his favourite expression. 
 

“Yeah, No”

Only Brummies will understand that

Mate!

He's getting on a bit now and I've always considered him more of a centre forward, but if he's up for it, why not?

Good old Sammy. Remember him battering Bob Wilson at Highbury

To be fair, I reckon it would/should have been Bailey LW and Traore RW against Newcastle anyway. Not one or the other.

Good thing we have Buendia though!

He looks a proper player. I guess Buendia will go RW Saturday  with Leon LW

Would love him to be that player but haven't seen enough of him yet!  We live in hope

Would love it to be so but haven't seen enough of him to judge yet. I certainly won't write him off after a few games like some on here

Can still remember hearing the crack when the Albion broke his leg

Same here mate....really sickening

Best half I've seen from him so far. I hope he's improved significantly from last season. Time will tell!
