I was once explaining to a very attractive Swedish girl, a long time ago, that I supported Aston Villa. She was obviously completely uninterested by this and didn't seem to have any idea what I was talking about. But then I mentioned Olof, and suddenly she visibly quivered. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naming yourself after a surface-to-air missile system is pretty unique to be fair same. How about this; 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know from personal experience, as I react the same when I see a photo of him, that this was an orgasm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted May 19, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted May 19, 2022 Reading this thread has made me realise that my avatar is altered from it's original, and for years I'd forgotten I did that. I made the white bit of the heart yellow in homage to our new chinese owners. That went well 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Albrighton Posted May 20, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted May 20, 2022 What’s the busiest VT has ever been? VT users, guests and anonymous visitors, what’s the highest number the site reached? I remember there being a lot of guests when Veretout signed - possibly a fair few Leicester supporters checking out for any developments to inform their own pursuit of him (worked out well didn’t it, Jordan?). And do we ever have any anonymous visitors? I don’t make checking how many are online a regular habit, but I can’t remember ever seeing the number of anonymous visitors as anything other than zero. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I find fascinating is people that have accounts for years (sometimes 15 years etc), are currently logged in, but never post. Or even like/laugh a post. I wonder if they ever get tempted? Why create an account but never post? You can just browse as a guest. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There has to be some of those who don’t sign up or post that must be tempted. Reading through On Topic and having to restrain themselves from signing up so they point out why everyone is talking bollocks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't remember when I chose it though as I reckon I went a few years after I joined without one as I had no idea how to do it. It took me even longer to successfully put a picture into a post. Hang on…I’ve been thinking that was you for over 10 years. I feel like I’ve been catfished. 2 hours ago, Mark Albrighton said: What’s the busiest VT has ever been?

It's Your Round Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 The Dr Tony takeover was another crazy busy time. Frenzied dreams of Champions League in five years, and his bullshit theme park. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
It's Your Round Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 Related to avatars, I’ve noticed that some members don’t have post count icons next to theirs. For example @HKP90 and @AV82 Why is this? And to the two posters, do you pine to one day be entitled Grandmaster? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Albrighton Posted May 21, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted May 21, 2022 If we’re talking when we couldn’t get on the site, I remember when Villa lost to Hull (I think), Lambert’s last game. I was only a guest at the time but it was the first time I’d been unable to access the site. I genuinely remember thinking “Hmmm if I can’t load up VillaTalk, I think that’s Lambert’s fate sealed”. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t see anyone’s post count now and haven’t done for some time (viewing on my phone). Unless I go on their profile page of course.

sparrow1988 Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 How did the site cope with the Rashica fiasco in the summer of 2020? I remember looking at the thread and then again 20 minutes later and the page count had soared exponentially which was quite fitting considering what was happening at the time.
