Havent been on for a while - great to be back on page 1874! Anyway, came up with a new song for Jack if anyone's interested, to the tune of danny boy, so a nod to his Irish roots. May need some tweaking! Oh jacky boy, The holte the holte is calling The trinity, and witton side by side You’re one of us, we love to see you flying Home and away, you’re Aston Villa’s pride You beat the blues, they’re always in your shadow In England's white we watch you in full flow So we’ll be here in good times or in fallow cos jacky boy oh jacky boy we love you so

for aaron tsibola. meh meh meh aaron tsibola!

I cant see why jack or McCormack cant be the attacking midfielder anyway. and ref the winger, isn't that what andre green is?

my one and only ITK post. retiring undefeated!

I live in bristol and watched city a few times last year. Kodija is good on the ground and far more mobile than gestede but wanted to walk the ball in at times rather than shoot. Would link well with jack and Ross though I think

I thought his body language on sat was awful. Stood around most of second half looking like he'd rather be anywhere but there. I'd have taken him off and brought green on when he was shifted to right mid as that seemed to do even more damage to his already low levels of interest! Head went after not squaring to Ross for 2-0 I think and then stopped trying

He reckons kodija wants to go too so we shall see. I'm trying to find if any decent odds on it!

I have a contact at bristol city who said kodija met with villa today and looks positive. £12mill plus add ons.

loved the second verse of dr tony went rome dr tony huttons crap, can we have a right back right backs don't score wondergoals so you can have McCormack verse three dr tony guzans crap please give us a goalie dr tony quite agrees, so you can have gollini How about D R T O N to the D I S C O chant too!

Shorter version of I love you baby (Andy williams version) You're just too good veretout cant take my eyes off of you De de de de de de da da de de de da daaaaa we love you Jordan and if it's quite alright we love Jordan and the city are shite we love jordan trust in us when we say etc etc

Its my 40th on sunday 27th september. On that day in 1975 villa beat the blues 2:1, i still have the argos at home my dad kept for me so would happily take that again tonight as an early b'day present!

I bumped into Hutton in villamoura two weeks ago, had a high five and an up the villa. Good guy, should keep him

We are the famous, the famous hole end clap clap clap

for all the plaudits and ithink he's leaving with far more dignity than coudve been exopected, he has chosen to not play hutton / bent etc for large periods. yes they are on large wages but if you have to pay them you may as well play them. didnt really work and then doing a total change of mind with hutton didnt make him look the most organised. hope he does well elsewhere, it had just run its course. many more managers may have reached the results we have recently but other clubs make the decision to fire quicker than we have.

i think he always conducted himself admirably and genuinely did recognise the "futble clubbs histre" (football club's history in english) and his role here but ultimately it was a lack of tactical nous that was the downfall, not financial restrictions. he is a good spotter of players (bar some duffs) and would make a great scout but he couldnt motivate or change things when he needed to and that was the problem. i feel relief for us and him now its over. onwards and upwards and i wish him the best
