See, for me, that is not boring. It's a calculated way of saying that we want to get revenge for the way they beat us when we last played them. That's not boring - that's psychological stimulation.

We generally go for 3”x 2” in God’s country. Although in mitigation you are using a character from the other side of the pond, so just a friendly word on this occasion and no need for a card to be brandished. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends on the job. 4" x 2" is a perfectly common timber size in the UK. (Slightly racist aside: "four-be-two" has long been rhyming slang for "Jew"). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vive_La_Villa Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 I now refuse to watch another press conference unless he has a snake, a 2 by 4 or some face paint. I will also accept a mask of some kind although it’s not my preference. On a serious note his press conference’s can bore me to sleep as long we continue to do the business on the pitch!

Although the score in our recent drubbing of Liverpool could equally be used I suppose. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 Was getting edgy over their subs giving them more energy but hard to take players off when they're doing that We look organised and full of effort which happened quietly but it's the bare minimum requirement and something a lot of villa teams have lacked Close to saying we look a bit like MONS lightening quick team but with a bit more about us, weaker wing play but stronger centre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

penguin Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 Smith, and JT, deserve massive credit for our turnaround post COVID break. We look so organised and tough to play against now, I would imagine statistically one of the best defences in the league post-lockdown? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farlz Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 Deano is pulling off masterclass after masterclass. I've never seen a turnaround in defensive solidity quite like I have with this Villa team since the last few games of last season and it's helping us so so much. Smith, Terry, O'Kelly, Shakespeare and Cutler are doing a simply phenomenal job. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mantis Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 Remember that Simpsons episode where Homer sells his soul for a donut and gets fed an unlimited amount of donuts in hell? That's me right now but with humble pie. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
