    Uncharted 2 is fantastic. Think the 1st one but 10 times the action. Probably the best in the series IMO. 3 though is still amazing.

    really? i think the majority of them are awful, whilst the others have a tired/done before feel to them, overall there arent enough maps that i would label as fun and as much as i moan about feeling done before it would be good if one of the maps on the DLC was a modern day nuke down map, aged 40 years and taken a battering I think the reason I'm enjoying it so much is because I expected it to be so crap after what everyone was saying about it on here and other forums. My positivity is probably driven by the fact I had very low expectations.

    I just want to see what Ireland can do alongside a senior CM with Jenas who can actually pass and move. I'd also be happy with Bannan there too but Ireland needs games as well to see if we are going to keep him or try to ship him out. I've moved Herd to RB because all who have played there so far have been woeful, expect him.

    It's amazing how 99% of fans (not just Villa ones) see how crap Heskey is. He's 34 in January for god's sake. So depressing that we are stuck with him and AMC until next summer. No doubt we'll offer him a 1 year extension in Jan.

    GK - Given RB - Herd LB - Warnock CB - Cuellar CB - Dunne CM - Petrov CM - Jenas CM - Ireland RW - N'Zogbia LW - Agbonlahor ST - Bent SUBS - Guzan, Clark, Hutton, Bannan, Delph, Gardner, Albrighton. Admittedly no striker on the bench but we have Gabby & Bent on the pitch so can rotate if needed. I just don't want Heskey in the squad. He's so shit.

    Very much enjoying this. Not as full of campers as I thought it would be. Good maps too.

    Effectively that is an attitude for the "usual" Top 6. So basically we can expect a similar mentality for another 10 games. Playing like this against the Top 6 means we will have 26 games to accumulate our 42 point tally generally needed to survive. AMC is a joke. Fans calling talkSPORT last night were saying it was a disgrace and most weren't Villa fans. The fact that are board seem happy for us to go forward like this is equally as depressing.

    Agreed. Right up there for me alongside Final Fantasy 7 and Secret of Mana.

    I bet the AMC recommendation letter from Ferguson is sat nicely on top of the other recommendation letter Fergie sent us a while ago recommending Eric Djemba-Djemba. On topic I just cannot see any success with AMC and RL at the club.
  10. jacketspuds
    So AMC spent £17m in the summer with a further £5m going to Blues for compensation. I find it hard to believe that both Hughes and Benitez would turn down the chance to manage Aston Villa with £22m to spend in the upcoming transfer window. I just don't think RL & Falukner even tried. They got the letter from Ferguson and now we all have to suffer. Nobody at our club above Kevin MacDonald seems to have a single **** clue about football, let alone running an actual football club.

    Honeymoon period is over. For me, I just cannot get behind McLeish. Get him out.
  12. jacketspuds
    Awful, just awful. Spurs are a very good team but the players didn't even try. McLeish's 12th league game and the players looked like they can't be arsed. It's going to be a long season.
  13. jacketspuds
    Delph on with 3 mins plus stoppage time remaining. Good move McLeish you tactical **** wizard. Him getting the Villa job is the biggest con since I tricked Mrs Jacketspuds into taking it up the 1950's tea towel holder.
  14. jacketspuds
    Scolari got binned for being shit at Chelsea, so did Hodgson at Liverpool. Sometimes a manager is not right for a club. McLeish is not right for any club. Except Birmingham, he can **** off back there.
  15. jacketspuds
    I think it's closer to £2m a year to be honest.
  16. jacketspuds
    This is as bad as Houllier jizzing himself into another cardiac arrest at Anfield last season. How can anyone at the club vindicate this? We're still losing 2-0 with 8 defensive players on the pitch. McLeish is not the man for us, his footballing mentality stinks. I thought the only reason he played defensively at Blues was because he didn't have our attacking quality in his squad. Whilst he is in charge my passion for Villa is being tested. It's just horrible negative shit, the sort of shit you do after eating 1Kg of raw jelly.
  17. jacketspuds
    Maybe we could see if Chelsea wanna swap AMC for Villas-Boas seeming most of them hate him so much. On a side note, Collins is quickly becoming the biggest **** defensive joke in the Premier League. He's the new Zat Knight.
  18. jacketspuds
    Yes, a throw-in.
  19. jacketspuds
    I don't know what game you're watching but I've seen Collins get the ball quite a distance passed the half-way line on numerous occassions.
  20. jacketspuds
    I'm going for the 89th minute. (In the return home fixture.)
  21. jacketspuds
    Course SAF recommended him. We usually cause United problems in the league so this is a good tactic to infiltrate us from within. SAF is a devious really bad person.
  22. jacketspuds
    Bollocks, we're not playing in white.
  23. jacketspuds
    73% Possession. Beautiful.
  24. jacketspuds
    A goal from a corner. Bonkers. We need more defenders on. Are Lichaj and Baker on the bench?
  25. jacketspuds
    So annoying when the ball falls to Collins under little pressure and he just hoofs it forward to nobody in particular. Pretty crap. Just invites them back at us. Surely someone could tell him to stop doing this.
