Dave J Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 Well I'm not going to pretend that I am glad we're down- however the prospect of a winning streak is most definitely appealing, as long as it's just for one season mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
micky_swill Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 I don't think there's anything to miss based on the the last 5 years. It will be refreshing to go into a season thinking were actually entering a competition we can we win, I know its unlikely but at least there's an opportunity. I don't think we've won more than 10 games a year for some time, if we can win 15+ next season at least I'll be going home with a smile on my face more often than not, plus the highlights are on before I've fallen asleep.

The Fun Factory Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 The fact that us going down is not The Big Talking Point in that it was so predictable and not a shock for anyone who has half followed the Premier League for the last 5 years. That we became a laughing stock of the league, neither loved nor feared, just ignored- festering in the corner to rot. This is Aston Villa we are talking about. Still one of the biggest hitters on paper at least in English Football. The fact that only Everton have more seasons in the top flight- and our pathetic collapse this season has been met with a meh who cares shrug from most premier league fans. I am not saying that we are entitled to have caused a bigger reaction but the final death throes of this season have been so meek and apathetic it has been shameful. I am not going to kid myself- I am going to miss Villa being a top flight football team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least the ones I've met anyway. Oh god it's so bad. They're **** everywhere. They'd easily be the best supported club over here IMO. They love to use the old "How can I be bandwagonning when we haven't won the title in 25 years" as well. They're easily my most hated club. Arsenal are also overrepresented as well, but nothing like Liverpool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr_Pangloss Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 The competition is an absolute circus with sickening amounts of money being thrown around, outrageous short-termism and entitlement, and systematic hollowing out of the match day experience coinciding with the evisceration of the hardcore fan. I'd say that the Premier League represents everything wrong with modern day football, the sooner it collapses the better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really tbh because weirdly it's the Eurpoeans (including non-Brits) here who support Arsenal. Arabs tend to support the likes of Real Madrid, Barca and PSG. You would think that as Manchester City are owned by the ruling family of Abu Dhabi (and, therefore, the UAE) there'd be more Manchester City fans here but I don't think I have seen Manchester City related anything anywhere at any point.
