Wittmann Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 This seems quite uninspiring, I can't Sebas(tian) the average stats in a below average league [sebas sounds a bit like see pass? Thought I'd at least attempt a pun] I don't think he'd be a bad signing. Offer competition and there are enough other options in that position to move him out of the team if he doesn't adjust to the league. For that pun, we need a dislike button. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wittmann Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Sarcasm isn't the lowest form of wit, it's the pun. God, I hate them. I agree but you know with every speculation we get them. I thought I'd be the first to get it started and out the way with. Won't be doing it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob182 Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Sarcasm isn't the lowest form of wit, it's the pun. God, I hate them.I actually don't mind a good pun, in a funny/unfunny way. The most annoying thing is when people realise that a specific word can be used in said pun, and it's then used over and over in a variety of different sentences. That's not funny, that's just a game of 'who can think of a sentence'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shillzz Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 I'm sure any annoyance caused was purely pun-intentional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa89 Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 (edited) Would he be the first Argentinian to play for Villa? If so, sign him up. Edited August 20, 2014 by villa89 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SikhInTrinity Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 (edited) I know he never actually featured. But this guy will always be remembered by the bashing Gregory gave him about turning up in the winter with shades on.

Daholteend Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Bartelt wasn't our first Argentinian. You're forgetting the Arce brothers Neither Oscar Arce or his brother actually played for Aston Villa when it was discovered that Oscar was possibly no better than a circus performer capable of dribbling and prodigiously controlling the ball like a hacky sack but in fact was an awful footballer . Over the years there has been an urban myth about Oscar Arce because at the time Aston Villa also had a good Welsh International player, Barry Hole on the team and the pub rumours always questioned what it would look like if Aston Villa signed Tony Brown from the Baggies and played them all in the Midfield. It would have read Brown Arce Hole . Gustavo Bartelt was a loanee from Roma who lasted a whole 3 months and was named for the bench once and never played. So if Sebastian Blanco were to sign for us and actually was ITSOTP he would be our first Argentinian to wear a first team shirt. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
