It's about 15 minutes from Putney Bridge tube. A very pleasant walk through Bishops Park besides the Thames. Thanks. Hope there arent any tube strikes again

How far is walk to ground from nearest tube station ?

I thought the lad did great when he came on yesterday. Always looking for the ball, didnt shirk anything and had that lovely curler The jump with Zigic summed him up nicely. He knew he'd look silly but he didnt shirk it.

Hello General As i'm sure you are aware, season ticket holders get a 10% discount off purchases from the Villa store, which is a nice touch and much appreciated. BUT You can't get this discount when shopping via the online store. There is no place to enter your client reference number to get the discount online for some reason. I've lost track of the times i've added items to my basket, and then had to call instead to activate the discount. Surely it can't be that hard to make it available online too ? Thanks

Pro Villa ones for a change hopefully

Awful first half, the improvement once Ash went in the hole and Ireland went off was amazing Not sure how we didnt get something out of that

HT VIEW FROM THE ARMCHAIR COURTESY OF FOX SOCCER PLUS That was **** dire. I thought we started reasonably well but lost all shape, style very quickly. Downing started well but faded badly, lovely move for the shot off the post though. Ashley hasnt started at all. He's completely out of the game. Might contemplate switching him and Ireland. Talking of Ireland, he's been crap so far Petrov did nothing before he went off. Coker's running around a lot but that wasnt a penalty in my book. He took the easy option because he didnt want the responsibility of making the shot Heskey is doing what he can but he's got NO support at all. The less said about Dunne's first half showing the better. He's looked awful to me, incluidng the comical goal Collins has already resorted to hoofing again Warnocks been turned inside out several times but is at least putting in a shift, as is Beye

Ireland got MOTM in the Express & Star match report Not sure about all this 'when Gabby comes back' talk. Because for me Heskey will be the number 1 striker when fit due to his intelligence and hold up play. Things Gerard obviously admires. Gabby will have to make do with cameos I reckon. Which might help when he sits and watches games, his education will increase ten fold

Where's his banjo?

I'm astonished by that comment You're not the only one mate. Probably because it was a ridiculous one

Thought we played some decent stuff myself. Downing and Reo Coker looked good. We've got to start taking our chances though As for Carew, that was about as woeful a performance as i've ever seen from a Villa forward. Totally and utterly **** abysmal His touch was useless, his pace has gone, and his awareness was that of a pub player

Really strange decision to drop Carlos

I was there and I didnt think atmos was anything special. Quite quiet really. From both sets of supporters The biggest noise I heard was from my mate when the bloke in front (Row C) with the worst case of dandruff i've ever seen knocked his back sending bits all over my mate

we played, we won. don't care about the performance to be fair 10/10 if you need to pick bones, we played better against Stoke and lost. or we played worse against Everton and won WGAF?

My advice, don't wear any colours. If you want a beer try out of the city centre. Maybe Willenhall or Bilston I live around and know a ton of Doghead fans, and by and large they're all right. But for some unknown reason they still have a percentage of backward supporters who really do still think its the 70's. They're even proud of it. Its a bit like the bloke on the rundown council estate who's proud of his new chip pan. They'll never change, and normal evolution has passed them by. Best leave them to their own.

watched quite a few this last week or so Kick Ass - enjoyed far more than I thought I would Four Lions - enjoyed far less than I expected to Paranormal Activity - not great Unthinkable - average

Based on what? Very strange Probably based on that age old philosophy that it makes sense to play players in the position that they have played all of their career. I know that this could seem strange after MON's reign! Since when did Bannan become a 'in the hole' player?. He's always played wide when I've seen him

Based on what? Very strange

Is that real or a Barbie thingy ? :shock:

In that case, why not let it drop?

What did O'Neill ever blame the supporters for ?

You sir are a DISGRACE. Fancy coming on here and talking common **** sense. What kind of supporter are you? I don't want to hear from fans who actually listen to whats being said, I want to hear from people who take their Gospel from the tabloids thank you very much. I bet you're one of these old school fans who go down VP week in week out and support the team good or bad. SHAMEFUL!

Very impressed with Gerard

Melvins

Yes, YES! That must be the reason
