DCJonah Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 33 minutes ago, One For The Road said: This makes no sense. You have just pointed out that we were relegated as one of the worst teams ever and THAT is my point! Dr Xia has come in and it's still practically the exact same ******* lining up at Sheffield Wednesday next week. I was desperately hoping that wouldn't be the case but it is. On top of that he is sending childish messages out on social media. Would Abramovich or Gill do that? No chance. I have no faith in this guy. Not one bit. It will not end well. Well that's why it's ridiculous. You've given him no time to turn things around at all. You're not satisfied after a few weeks so you have no faith and you regret it more and more each day. Clearly you made your mind up about this guy early on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I had 30,000 people stood behind me at work, waiting for me to make a mistake and then continuously boo me for the rest of my day, I really don't think I'd perform to my full potential at all. I'm genuinely gobsmacked that there are a couple of people on here blaming the Villa fans for our players performances last season. I spent £2,000 on away tickets/travel etc. last season and saw us score 1 goal. That's all my fault is it? 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya know, the mega rich successful Billionaire owner of the Dallas Mavericks? No, but I don't think you can compare the "American" market with the UK when it comes to spouting off.

There are alot of people to blame but the fans are not one of them, not in a millions years. we want the best for our club and when tossers are taking us for a ride i think we have every right to voice are frustration. Like delphino ive spent a small fortune on watching villa over the years, even putting them in front of things i shouldnt! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodders0223 Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 **** Ian Holloway for having an opinion, right? I hope Tony is successful as he is going to make us and himself look like complete clearings in the woods. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have been for the past 5 years. We aren't too blame. We never have been and never will be. Go and have a look at Joleon's twitter feed. Or is that my fault as well?

rodders0223 Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 I really hope he can walk the walk. At the moment I just think he is coming off as a try hard. Maybe I was too harsh with previous comments following the Boro game but I really do fear this guy is all talk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 When Alan ball played for Everton I think , he wore different coloured boots . His dad said to him, I hope you're good son. Xia , I hope you're good son 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The idea of "support-ers" is bollox. The idea that a stadium full of encouragement fires up players is bollox. If your child was at a football match, made a mistake and started being booed by the whole crowd, I am guessing you would tell him to man up and have no issue with the crowd. (Please don't response with bollox like they are not children and well paid professionals because that is obvious). It's almost as if footballers are humans too. It is almost as if positive vibes encourage people in every walk of life, from the tea lady on wards. Tea Lady makes a cup not to your taste once we gonna boo her every time she is carrying a cup? I have no idea what the hell Lescott's tweets have to do with this. Edited August 1, 2016 by JAMAICAN-VILLAN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Lomaski Posted August 1, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted August 1, 2016 In simple terms: A man has voiced his opinion as part of his job and in turn has been berated, insulted and sworn at by a supposed respected business man. Just my opinion, but I don't want the owner of the club I support acting in such a disrespectful and childish manner. For me, the evidence is mounting up that Dr Xia isn't all he is being made out to be. 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
