dundeevilla Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 What a shockingly amateurish and stupid thing to do. Just about as daft as his line about making us as big as Real and Barca. Who is advising this man? I'm worried about this fella. Something doesn't feel right, he acts like a clown and we've seen no evidence of his supposed billions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So me thinking we will finish 16th next season automatically means that if I were to own Aston Villa, I'd appoint Holloway as manager? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 Quote We need more of this. Good on him, I like the fighting talk. Fed up with pundits being allowed to say whatever they want from an armchair. Every player, manager, owner etc is so full of cliches. I understand that it's about being professional but just sometimes, raw emotion and saying it how it is is vitally important too. It's all part of the game we love and we want to see that passion!!! You tell me we are finishing 16th and I would come out with a Similar answer too! http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-3718284/Aston-Villa-owner-Tony-Xia-calls-Ian-Holloway-failed-player-failed-manager-f-ed-pundit-prediction-finish-16th-Championship.html?ITO=1490&ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490 I personally like that quote from the Mail comment section and agree. We never pull in the same direction ffs, a big part of Leicesters success was the unwavering support of their fans, we are just a proper depressing, negative black cloud lingering around all the time. More concerned about being politically correct than showing passion and fight for the club. I hope RDM puts comments like Holloways in the dressing room to fire them up! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we signed nobody else I can't see us getting 60 points, and wouldn't be the least surprised if we got 50, which would indeed be about 16th. I'm not an optimistic person but i really cant see us finishing below 10th no matter what Holloway says. P.S we are all doom and gloom on VT so them polls are skewed 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeh, all us fans need to take a long, hard look at ourselves. This has nothing to do with Bacuna, Lescott, Richards, Gestede, Westwood, Veretout, Guzan and Gabby, it is all our fault. All we do is sell out every away match, why can't we do more? God, I'm mad at me. I'm so mad, I might accidentally tweet a picture of my new KIA that I've bought on Finance. Bloody fans.

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. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Completely agree with this train of thought but am holding back untill the end of the window to see what we do. Totally embarrassed to have an owner spouting there mouth like this.

Have any of you ever taken a look at great quotables from a certain fella called Mark Cuban? Ya know, the mega rich successful Billionaire owner of the Dallas Mavericks? On a serious note, is it a British thing to be so bloody boring and PC all the time, in a bloody SPORT for god sake, A SPORT! This is not the house of parliament ffs!
