I imagine him driving a K reg BMW to most games with toner samples on the back seat. He also has a beard that looks like an orange wagon wheel. I am a photocopier sales rep and you nailed that !!!! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So all I want in addition to the 3 points is for someone to snap Mee in two and whole team running off to celebrate reveling Wesley T-Shirts Correction. We are a good side. Burnley is an average side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 Over the last ten games played, a pretty good chunk of the season, Burnley have taken the same number of points and have the same goal difference as us, and they had the more difficult fixtures: Man City, Everton, Arsenal, Aston Villa, Wolves, Leeds, Sheffield United, Man Utd, West Ham and Liverpool. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post OxfordVillan Posted January 27, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 27, 2021 Football will catch up with Burnley, just as it did to the likes of Stoke, Wimbledon etc. They revel in being lauded as the spoilers, their managers soak up the plaudits lauded upon them by certain sections of the media who proclaim them to be a supernatural genius turning water into wine. But it’ll be relatively short lived. Teams gradually wise up to the likes of Burnley, they refrain from over committing to attacks, trying to get the win that they think their football has merited. No, if it’s getting late in the game and your 80 mins of playing football around them hasn’t produced a lead, then you must simply remain defensively sound and just keep playing the same way, don’t give up any silly mistakes (as per Liverpool the other night) in the pursuit of 3pts, be content with 1pt. The wins will come for the footballing teams like Villa etc. Burnley will always be left scratching around for 0-0s if teams remain constant against them. Burnley have only set pieces. They don’t do possession, they can’t do counter. They rely on opposition frustration to lead to a mistake. Their entire set up is built upon frustrating everyone and pushing the rules of the game above and beyond what should be acceptable. Dyche’s “talent” is in having created a myth that Burnley are simply a hardworking, honest little lot who are taking on the role of David in a battle against Goliath. Burnley are the epitome of football shithousery. I sincerely hope they get the absolute spanking that they so richly deserve from Villa this evening. 10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoshVilla Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 What's mad is that I know, from personal experience, that Ben Mee is actually a really nice bloke. However if he breaks any of our players this evening, he's off my non existent Christmas card list. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa89 Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 (edited) Should do this lot as they are fully shite but they are just like stoke used to be, a pain to play against.

TrentVilla Posted January 27, 2021 Moderator Share Posted January 27, 2021 Feels like we need to win this one but not confident, will be a tough game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villanmac Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 Yeah, as shite as Burnley are i always think of them as a really tough game and i'm never confident. Stoke is a good comparison. Burnley, Soton and WHU in the next 7 days. Really pivotal moment of the season i think. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why don’t anyone else than Villa-fans pick that up? Assuming we went 1-0 down in that game and for some reason we decided not to make tactical changes or substitutions, and it finished that way We'd have been on 34 points and - 27 goal difference Bournemouth ended on 34 points and - 25 goals so we'd have gone down . However , since Dyce and co are living in this parallel universe where games get corrected after the event , we'd then use their rules , add our point for the Palace game back and be on 35 points and Bournemouth would still be relegated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WallisFrizz Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 They’re really not a shit team, not a great footballing side but definitely not shit and this won’t be an easy match. Everyone seems so outraged by Dyches comments but it’s something that I’ve thought myself. I’m sure he referred to fate being involved with the Hawkeye thing and how we were able to build on that and become a good outfit. That Hawkeye error has never happened before or since in thousands of games and it did probably have an impact on our season given how narrow our survival was. I’m not superstitious but there is something fate-like about a 1 in 10,000 error deciding our future when at a fork in the road of relegation or now pushing for Europe. That’s not to say that everything goes our way, it clearly doesn’t (Tyrone Mings says hi) but we took a bit of luck and ran with it. Good for us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 Despite their recent form for some reason contrary to intuition and common-sense expectation I'm more confident about this game than the Newcastle game. Have a feeling we can win by a big scoreline. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steero113 Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 Smash the granny out of them and be done with it. My second least fav team in the league. 1-3 Villa after taking an early lead courtesy of SJM's ass. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
