  1. Whitts left mid / winger. Barry Centre. DOL >>>>> MON and he did it on <25% of MONs leaving wage bill. I agree that MON bought the best out of Gabby. DJDJ was poop but he cost 825k, and had champions league experience, a little bit better value for money than NRC for £8m, Sidwell for £5.5m. Again I'd liek to reiterate I detested DOL as manager but I think he's genuinely a better manager than MON (less so in terms of motivation and public relations but in other areas better) - but he was / is a monumental prick and he's only got himself to blame why he's no longer employed in the prem league. OH and yeah I agree that he spent / wasted loads t Leeds but at Villa most of his signings were good (on paper at least) - with the majority having champions league experience, he worked wonders with the kids (looking back) whilst not spending a lot of money (bar Baros) and the signings of Laursen and Bouma - are the two most exciting we've made since Collymore. I don't know where to start..... :?
  2. I was 6 and David Platt scored against Belgium......
  3. If it's going to be someone who's at the club at the moment, then Given. But I'm hoping it will be a decent CB that'll be given the job.
  4. Not sure he will really, he starts virtually every game for Mancini - obviously likes him. But yeah, like a shot - Barry, Milner, Young, Cahill....
  5. Whilst he's a likeable fella, it has the feeling of Mclaren about it all really doesn't it....bearing in mind Liverpool was too big for him 18 months ago...
  6. Seeing QPR and Blackburn so far today, I can't believe we're in any way similar to these teams. They're **** dreadful.
  7. Yep. That's a good position to play Hoilett with no Parker in the Spurs team.
  8. Does anyone actually care with this twot thinks or says? Go back for a spot of dogging Stanley.
  9. OK, 1 down 1 to go. Spurs win, that's us 85/90% safe!
  10. Beauty!! Kindly match this Spuds.
  11. No doubt someone else has probably mentioned it already, but back to back promotions from league 1 and then a very steady 1st season in the Prem, never in danger, is a phenomenal achievement. All with alot of the same players he inherited when he took over aswell. It's all very well suggesting Rijkaard or Scolari etc, but it just won't happen. Lambert has to be the top of the 'gettable' options out there.
  12. Norwich have let in 9 in their last 2 games at home, so I don't think Carrow Road is the fortress some think it is....
  13. Quotes on Sky from Lambert saying the Villa link is unfair on Mcleish (sorry, unable to provide link). No denial though!
  14. I think because what lies between the lines of the text in the statements from both club and manager speaks very loudly indeed. I was of the opinion like many others that AMC would be here next season even after the Bolton debacle... until I read the club statement. The coy way of talking about the next three games as the only focus for the future there made me think he was teetering on the brink. Now given the way he's phrased his own response in similarly indirect terms, I don't have any doubt in my mind that he will gone very soon. Sorry, completely off topic, but you have the best username on VT. BURMAH!
  15. To be expected. Bannan slowed up any potential attacks nicely.
  16. Please no more PC David Rathband gags.......they are not raoulmoatly funny.
  17. Play or Amazon sellers that just rip you off.......ordered Boardwalk Empire dvd's on 25th January from some arsehole posing as a seller on play.com.......still waiting for my refund.
  18. We could have got a point, but looked a far worse side with Ireland out of the team and Bannan in.
  19. I think the Bannan penalty at QPR is the only goal we've scored on Sky games all season!

    Singapore

    Potentially going to Singapore to visit friends who have moved out there - any thoughts, tips, advice about the country? I've heard the common perception of it being a tad dull is unfair.......anyone agree/disagree? Also any experiences on the prices of food/drink would also be appreciated. Cheers!
  21. Haha!!! What a twonk. Start firing balls at him.....all 22 players, bit of target practice.
