  1. next 3 games are massive...and should win them all. i say stick with him now, but a defeat in any of these 3 games and he deserves to go
  2. i firmly believe, just one win will improve our fortunes. the pressure has gotten to the players, and each defeat just adds to that
  3. **** me a voice of reason...we were in control until the first goal which is bloody good considering where we're playing
  4. not that howe would dream of coming to villa, but i believe he is one of those managers that will only be successful at one club. he didn't do brilliantly at burnley
  5. i refuse to believe that we will go down instead of teams like blackburn, rotherham, burton, bristol city, qpr, wigan...especially when we still have to play them this season. stick with bruce, i dont just think he will keep us up, i think we'll be top half.
  6. no expert on these matters either, but i think it's if they have a career ending injury or something...i.e. i suspect we might have been able to claim some insurance payout for petrov for example
  7. why is it that the 'gross misconduct' definition is so much stricter with footballers? if most of us failed to turn up to work with lame excuses such as that we would be told not to come back, and wouldn't have a leg to stand on for any form of appeal to be taken seriously
  8. i guess this is in the 'one for the future' category. the lad doesn't even have a wikipedia page!
  9. yeah he's really shot himself in the foot here - the fans now expect him to make an impact much much quicker, IF he gets a chance...
  10. i'll be keeping my money in my pocket on that one...
  11. i remember when petrov was the scapegoat...give it a couple of months and it'll be someone else's turn
  12. had this with a couple of players last season...a few times asking "why is veretout not playing"...[plays]..."oh yeah, that's why"
  13. late goals are irrelevant if we killed of these games earlier. IMO we have the best squad in the league and should be smashing many of these teams we have played. on the way to Ipswich we all agreed we wouldn't have a single one of their players in our starting 11 and that goes for many of the other teams we have played but we didn't turn up even though they were there for the taking. now is the time, as 2 proven managers in bruce and big sam are available
  14. if he was seen in a bar/club it wouldn't have made headlines. However, the party he hosted had to be ejected from a hotel due to unruly behavior of the guests.
  15. i echo some that say this is must win...and must win by 2 or 3 IMO. things will start getting nasty with a bad result
  16. worryingly it'll get worse with a bad result saturday...i cant see him being on much longer
  17. definitely should sell...although transfer requests don't tend to happen anymore as the player foregoes their 10% (i think - might even be 15%) of the transfer fee if they do
  18. you get clowns like that every summer...like that sky sports news wannabe girl last year...they all know exactly the same as us, then jump all over every media rumour and pass it off as theirs. i did chuckle at him getting well caught out
  19. 100% this...don't know much about chester, but when i saw the money we paid for lescott alarm bells rang. they knew how awful he was and were laughing their heads off that we actually paid for him

    i have a horrible feeling he will go on deadline day leaving us with no one but cissokho
  21. I actually agree...I didn't see the drive and passion i that i saw at the back end of last season. I saw a player who was in a sulk about playing left wing when he wanted to be CF.
  22. Ditto. Player comes inside its a certain goal, narrow the angle and keeper is unlikely to be beaten near post
  23. At least Guzan's kicks went into touch! Who'd be a keeper eh...kept us in the game until then
  24. I rate Baker, Elphick, and Okore over him...plus you have Toner breaking through too. Just hope we use the cash towards a playmaker or striker. His performances at the Euros confirmed how error prone he can be
