  1. Ah...X-Files. Love it. I bought up all the boxsets with my student loan 4/5 years back. Took forever to watch them all, but well worth while, even if the ending still didn't make any sense
  2. And it's Eston Villa ESTON VILLA FC By far the greatest TEAM the fourth tier of the Estonion Football League has ever SEEN But Gareth are they actually based in Tallinn?
  3. I like the sound of Woy's voice. I do not like the sound of 'Arry's voice. On that basis alone I am perfectly happy with this appointment.
  4. Two tickets per booking! Generous, and surely means every seat will be snapped up sharpish
  5. Let's just call ourselves Villa FC yeh, the only other Villa I can think of if Pelsall, and who cares about them rite. And before anyone says anything, no I don't know if Pelsall Villa play in Pelsall, or if the No. 48 bus goes there, or anything.
  6. Agree, as some chap once said "Even the name is beautifully symmetrical, with five letters in each word" If we were called Birmingham Villa, that wouldn't be true iirc

    Job websites

    Link to Civil Service jobsite Always ton's of stuff on there, all over the country, with many many different skills required/types of job/salaries available. If you havent ever considered the Civil Service it might be worth a look, you could be surprised. I often look through it with a view to considering transfer/promotion
  8. Taking my little brother and my mother with me to this game. It's the first game my mum's been to this season, although she is a lifer. She is bricking it, convinced it will kick off, and is refusing to take the train as a result. I have said don't be silly, of course it won't, it might be a shit match but I can't imagine that will happen. However, I have learnt this the hard way in the past - ignore mother's advise at your peril....so we goin in car ^__^
  9. trst man, I **** love your threads Is Metropolitan Police a town? Vauxhall Motors FC is the best example I can think of
  10. Boro' in the playoffs, first game tomorrow night, tempted to go down. Beduff also in their playoffs
  11. Only time I've stayed at a hotel in Brum was at Ibis. Wasn't bad, close to train station (if that's how you're traveling), decent brekky, and it's close to some decent chinese eateries and a strip club too
  12. :!: You must sit very near to me then! I'm C7 3 rows back And that's completely unrelated so er uh, make sure you go and see McGregor's statue in front of the Trinity before the game, and maybe even chance a rub of his foot for good luck...
  13. :shock: My god...Randall Flagg is the vice president! Clearly he is the one behind the scenes pulling the strings...he may have had a haircut, a change of clothes, and a new name...but it's him alright. Those eyes are unmistakable. I've seen bits of bobs of this and have been told it's really wonderful, so will pick up the bluray when it's out
  14. I used to go on this everyday, until the site was blocked at work. Booo...havent been on it since, guess that was about 2 years ago?
  15. I'm staying in Norwich, although a trip to the actual seaside would have been nice
  16. They're my French team When I was about 9 my mum used to work in a sports/toy shop, the ultimate amalgamation of which was, of course, Subbuteo. So I had quite a lot of teams, and my favourite based both on their name but mostly their kit was Montpellier. It was actually their away kit, but I've kept half an eye on their results ever since Allez Allez Montpellier!
  17. A consortium made up of Prince William, Tom Hanks, Mervyn King, the Villa Weasley, Nigel Kennedy, David Cameron, Redd Pepper, and a Sheikh of some description. Oh and whatever VTers want to chuck some money in too. How about that?
  18. So they fans will actually be able to watch the game in 3D id they wear glasses in the stands? Awesome!
  19. Actually quite relieved I'm not going to this one. I think it will get very messy, one way or another

    Protesting News

    #stopmcleish2012 hahaha, good good Although if it's anything like the game last night, which it will be, the stewards will only take the signs off you after you unfurl them anyways. 'Get the 'Eck Out' only lasted a few seconds yesterday
  21. Quite right; in fact all you had to do (in the days of the PS1 when it was first released/still around in games shops) was look at the back of the gamecase - it actually has a picture of Cloud holding a pretty obviously dead Aerith right there. **** knows who thought that was a good idea The PAL version that is (both the platinum and non-platinum versions), so no there's really no excuse for not knowing that one. I liked Heavy Rain myself, but did struggle to get through it on a repeat playthrough when doing some stuff differently.
  22. It took me most of the journey home and this morning as well to come to terms with the fact that we actually lost that game. The dizzying relief at the goal followed by the bewilderment of their 2 goals in such a short space of time afterwards is a very difficult thing to fathom. I went home and went straight to bed to sleep in a daze. It's safe to say I have never felt like that when coming home from a game at VP, and the fact that it might get a lot worse than that is scary to say the least. The fact that this was quite possibly the biggest home game of the season, and the relatively low amount of replies in this thread in comparison to other post-match threads this season is quite indicative. People either just don't give a **** anymore, or can't come to terms with what happened last night. I can't say I blame anyone who feels that way as I'm there myself.
  23. He was clearly injured. Never recovered from the knock he got early in the second half which left him in a heap on the ground. Gosh he didn't half give it a go last night in the first half though. I said on the way to the match to a few people that we'd need someone to turn up in a big way to make a difference, either Zog or Ireland probably...but it was actually Heskey who did what I hoped someone would do. Not that it helped us in the end, mind.
  24. Looks like the women will play Sweden and the men will play Brazil in a 'double header' at the Riverside. Shame it's not at VP, I would have gone to that.
