I knew it wouldn't take long for people to jump on Randys back because Ole hasn't signed for us (yet), like it's as simple as that!

Maybe he doesn't want the job, there would be nothing possible Randy a side from offering Man City type wages could do about that.

How many of you were thinking about OGS before someone took a picture of the plane in Norway? This to me speaks volumes about Randy and how he's improved as a chairman Villa.

Aston Villa goalkeeper Shay Given says the squad are "all right behind" manager Alex McLeish as they fight for Premier League survival.

Villa are currently three points clear of the relegation zone with two games remaining.

Given was speaking on BBC Radio 5 live Breakfast following Villa's annual end-of-season awards dinner where captain Stiliyan Petrov, diagnosed with acute leukaemia, was voted the club's players' player of the year .

The Ireland international reveals it is "difficult" for the team to watch Petrov fight "a huge battle", but insists it puts the club's "rough time" into perspective.

Wow people still believe MM is ITK?

If only Bent wasn't injured..

We wouldn't be playing this well if Bent was on the pitch.

Fuckign typical Dunne can't be arsed to move forwards into space so he tries to do it with the ball instead, Swansea have possesion.

I thought he was magnificent yesterday. Mainly because we were passing it out of defence when under pressure instead of just smacking it out hoping to relieve pressure that way. Only towards the end did we start going back to putting 'too' many bodies behind the ball, naturally this doesn't suit N'zog. But come on lads we've been playing well for a few games now and against better opposition, N'zogbia is part of the reasons for this.

He fits our passing game perfectly! Especially his linking up with N'zogbia. Great game for the whole team, but shame Gabby didn't convert his 1v1 chance and Dunne gave away that silly penalty. More games like this please, win lose or draw!

Watching Borja Valero tonight is similar to Makoun. A very good passer with a sharp brian not suited to English football kick and rush approach

Albrighton you greedy clearing in the woods!

We're desperate to concede!

lol wicked freekick from Warnock XD

Hard working but not particularly prolific or technical, by all accounts. Never really seen him.

ok :|

Puyol captains Spain & Casillas does NOT captain Real

where are you getting your intel from

christ bannan , heskey, makoun all very poor, lots and lots of hoof ball going on

Bannan has been sloppy with passes just around our area but Heskey and Makoun have been decent.

I haven't seen any hoofball though, you watching the same game?

Well at least Whelan is trying to keep his best players, unlike our owner

And let him go for free when his contract runs out and have none of that money to re-invest? It's not like Young was ever going to sign another contract for us, we probably tried to get him to sign an extension but it wouldn't of happened. I'm pleased we've made the money we have from these sales.

What do you have to do to get a poll?

Be from Small Heath.

I see there's a few blue noses in this forum.

Surely there would be news now if it was a break?

I don't know about that, the OS is getting very lazy with informing fans about injuries. We only seem to find out about them when the latest "team info" comes out from SSN or BBC..

MON Out!

Oops I thought this was the transfer speculation thread, my bad.

Why is there a stylised 3D cube on the back...?

To distract you from the horrible colour? But seriously I was about to ask the same thing.

As the rumour is that the away kit is black, and that Nike seem to be going a bit erm, crazy with some of their designs for teams 'alternate' kits I took the new PSG away top and Villa'd it....

Nice job!

Why is there an ongoing discussion about the possibility of a white away kit when our third kit will be last season's white change shirt? It will be a different colour.

Yes this has already been raised but people just ignore.

Sorry but a Villa shirt must have blue sleeves

In my butt.
