Peever

The North American based commentators do my head in. I just turn them off.....

Anyone planning on attending the match(es) in June? Ill be down for the Saturday match...Be good to meet a few expat Villans! I know of a few already attending!

Thinking of making a quick trip across the pond from Canada for this....

Not sure how many of those based in North America were present at any of the festivities last summer on the US tour but the beginning of the process to get a meet up planned for the first Villa match of next season is under way. Here is the link for those who might be interested https://www.facebook.com/events/453149521435186/ If your not a facebook user at the moment we voting to narrow it down to 3 cities to meet up before doing a final vote between the 3 to figure out where we will meet up. If your not on FB and would like to register a vote please advise below and I will get it added. Choices are Las Vegas Chicago Toronto Seattle Los Angeles New York Philadelphia Washington DC Its looking like it will come down to Las Vegas (15 votes) Chicago (14) and Toronto or Los Angeles (Both on 7). So if your are interested please post as quick as possible on here or on the facebook page. The more the merrier! We had about 200-250 Villans in Chicago last summer and we are hoping to get a good turn out for the meet up!

Have not gone myself with Contiki but have had several friends use them and they all praise it. Though its what you make of it...if you want a good trip that is designed by someone else then its for you. Me personally I prefer the freedom of planning my own trip and just going with the flow sometimes!

Hmm... think I recognise you. Were you leading a bit of a slagging match with the Irish lads in the next section over? Wouldnt say I was leading it, but at the same time my memories of the match are a bit hazy But I was invovled in the slaggin match thats for sure

Would have been great to meet ya.

You love Villa Shoes off..... Think someone threw in a "Shoes off if you hate the blues" But I coul be wrong....match is a bit hazy

Heres some pictures and video from the weekend in Chicago. Im the giant in the red hat Pre match First one was during the game... about the 75th minute if my dodgy mind is not lying to me....my voice is sh*t Second is on the coach back to the pub. Its a very drunk version of Bluenose bastards.....the words get changed up a bit (Kiddie lads started this) to incorporate some of the different countries/states/cities on the bus. Bit of a train wreck by the end though All in all it was a fantastic weekend!

As I understand the club has just come out of financial troubles and his wages were an issue and they knew they could not afford to keep him when his contract was up next year.

Still was trying to do to much at times but he looked good in a some ball movement with Stevens and Carruthers

Marshall

It would appear so as not involved in any capacity today..... Not heard anything though

Think Johnson is caught in "trying to hard" which has led to mistakes. Needs to settle down a wee bit

No one really sure, think its an owngoal by Weinmann was right there
