I don't think daggers should be out but criticism would be more than fair if we fail to beat them Sunday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fairness Fulham were not dire and Wolves look a cut above everyone else - although the manner of defeat still irks with me - we could have shown up and gone down with heads held high I agree with this. Put simply I don't mind if we lose trying to win but if we lose trying to draw then I get angry! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a forum - and a very clearly live topic which generates a lot of interest and debate - I kind of think that VT might wish for this ? Maybe I am wrong.

Even playing a game more if wolves were so great they would be running away with it which they are not. If and its a big if, they lose today and we win tomorrow they will be 2nd with is breathing down their neck. Then the pressure is on.

Well I have reservations about us to be truthful - and I still remain more concerned over our no - show at their place - rather than how good they are. for me this remains far more worrying and Bruce’s inability to stem the flow/ change the game/ halt the tide - he was totally out thought in every aspect of the game at Molinuex - which concerns me a lot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 (edited) http://readastonvilla.com/2017/10/28/villa-interested-in-january-move-for-carrick/ Quote VILLA INTERESTED IN JANUARY MOVE FOR CARRICK Aston Villa are interested in signing Michael Carrick from Manchester United in the next transfer window. According to The Mirror, Villa are one of three teams keen on signing the Premier League veteran to bolster their squad in the new year. West Brom and Leicester are also said to be tracking the midfielder, and could compete with Villa for his signature. The report claims that Villa are keeping an eye on Carrick over the next few months before making a decision on whether to make a move for him in January. Julian Finney/Getty Images Sport Carrick is yet to feature in a Premier League game this season. His only appearance has been against Burton in the League Cup. The 36-year-old has been struggling with injury of late, but is set to return to action after just before the next international break. The retired England international has played almost 400 games for Manchester United but could now be set to leave the club. Couldn't find a Transfer Window topic so put it here.

Rugeley Villa Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 I'll be so pissed off if he plays not to get beat today. I don't want us to sit back or play it safe. Blues are shite and let's not give their fans optimism by playing negative. If we attack them like we can they will fold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you not doing the same? - whilst maintaining a different stand point - which clearly you are very much entitled too. It does feel that you do counter act a lot of post - which I say again is your right too - but your’re part of this - as much as anyone else. We have to remember this is a forum where people will post and re-post similar thoughts and views that they feel passionate about - much to VT’s delight I would have thought? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
