islingtonclaret

As long as I can remember I've wanted to see an Addidas Villa shirt, just to see those claret and blue 3 stripes which I reckon would look great. Nike shirts were a welcome breath of fresh air from the bile being turned out by Diadora, Hummel etc. and as a traditionalist I have thoroughly enjoyed them. But, it's time to move on after the kit problems.

Xtep anyone? Is that even spelt right?!

Anyway, yeah, Addidas, Kappa or Puma will do me fine.

forget johnson, some people are having second thoughts about milner already.. one city fan even said his only worth £8m and another said there is no room for him in the squad really is laughable

I am sure I could have told them he is not worththe circa £26m it amounted to but if they don't want him I would welcome him back to villa park in a hurry

We're not fickle, we just don't like the new breed of Man Citeh fan

Just been on the Everton board to have a look at what they think. It's all a bit mysterious, smells of massive bet(s) being put on. SSN are now adding fuel to the fire.

This could be over a meaningless handshake though!

Candleface? Jog on!

I'd take Houllier, no problem.

Kev Mac has put a lot of time and effort into this club since 1993, and I think the longer he stays in the limelight (which he doesn't want) the bigger the chance of fans turning on him, which is a big shame. I for one am expecting a chorus of boos at the end of the Everton game. We need to sort this out ASAP.

Leeds Castle is in Kent

Steve **** Bruce?

Christ on the cross.

Agreed.

well he'd be better than BOB..

Steve Bruce. Would actually be okay.

But that reminds me of -ahem- certain victories in his career. No thanks.

I think looking at Man Citeh against Plop tonight, I'm not sure why we're still talking about whether a new manager can take us into the Champions League. I think we need to forget about the past 3 seasons, the '4 year plan', and move on.

Anyone that comes in and gets us 7th or 8th is a massive achievement considering what is happening in this foul, money smelling league.

I have a job running on Saturdays until September then I go on holiday. I suggest us Londoners sort this out this season - we name a zone 1/2 pub with a decent telly and turn up. You never know, it could be the start of something good!

To the tune of bright side of life

''He will beat you all,

When he gets the ball

He will have you running down the liiiiiiine

Always pass to Marc Albrighton, Duh duh duh duh duh

Always pass to Marc Albrighton, Duh duh duh duh duh''

I don't know about the verse, but the chorus is genius. It's simple as well, surely should catch on

Islington (I suppose you could guess by the name). If anyone recommends a North London pub to me where other fans will be I'll be there. One of the most curious things I discovered when moving here is that I couldn't find any Lions clubs...although, the East London club isn't that far from me.

KPB is no donkey, I think he'd be a great addition to the squad. From what I remember at the WC he looked up to the job.

Sidwell is, even though this won't be big news to some, a big steaming pile.

That Hummel one was atrocious. And at £127 on classicfootballshirts.com, hardly a snip. Why is every club that gets a Hummel kit makeover such cack?! 2005/2006 shirt was a stinker.

I got a nice little gift in the post today. 1992/1993 Mita Copiers Umbro in small, great condition.

Now to get a league cup one. We did the 1994 one on my birthday so it's kind of a must

Gillete and Hick's attempt at staying afloat is a lame duck.

To be fair, the villa club shop has rubber ducks in it.

I own one. Joke present.

(Not a Liverpool one, obviously)

DJ Judge Jules is a cock

He is, but it doesn't make the the fact wrong

DJ Judge Jules is chef Rick Stein's nephew.

my bredrin who works at vp says moyes was at vp today

Statistically one in seven cups of water I have drunk during my lifetime might be consumed at VP today.

Good shout with Martinez. Risky, but would be up for him having a shot. How much longer on his contract with Wigan?
