Villarocker Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 You all need to calm down guys, he will be gone this weekend. There's no real sign we will win tomorrow and surely even Tony Xia, for all his lack of football knowledge, would not be able to tolerate seeing us take 2 points from the 12 that have been available. If he does tolerate it he will be jeopardising fan loyalty towards him and I doubt he will want to do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I totally get fed up at games, and at football in general, but to get really annoyed about stuff that just doesn't make your life better or worse in any way kinda hints at yer general current mental state. Mine currently is bored, hence why I'm spending an unhealthy amount of time on VT today while the kids fend for themselves. That's me according to @terrytini Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"HAVE YOU SEEN WHAT STEVEN BRUCEKINS SAID ABOUT MY VILLA?!?!" sounds sillier than; "Steve Bruces presser was a bit of a shit wasn't it?" But the internet is all about extremes now-a-days innit? I think your issue isn't about Villa fans, just chavs in general Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrentVilla Posted August 18, 2017 Moderator Share Posted August 18, 2017 Personally I don't think he is even remotely close to the sack at this point, sadly, I think despite his bleating in the press the owner is backing him. I think that is a mistake but there you go. If we were to lose on Saturday I think things could start to turn a little ugly which might surprise the Dr but I think Bruce is well aware he is on thin ice with the fans. The comments he is coming out with are intended to keep us on side the irony is I think they are doing as much damage as the performances and results. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dn1982 Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Another delusional press conference. He thinks he joined about a month ago and we deserved something from Reading!! Unbelievable. What's happened to journalists asking follow up questions? Surely he should be pulled up on his 10 months here and still awful football and how he thinks we weren't hammered v Reading? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But not understand why people continually post about how they feel about the manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is journalists know they have to be nice to keep their access. Especially local ones who rely on villa stories for their job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've just had a quiet period at work where I could comment, much more than I normally do to be honest! I mostly post in off-topic where people seem to be a bit calmer about stuff.

It's not an obligation. You've inadvertently justified why people are angry. It's not entertaining it's garbage. Unfortunately most see watching Villa as an obligation because that's what fans do. I take it you care or you wouldn't have 6000+ posts on here so surely seeing crap football for the last 10 months with a manager that's becoming more and more delusional about it must make you a little angry. If you are happy with our current plight id say you are in a very small minority one that Bruce isn't even in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
