Popular Post Stevo985 Posted August 18, 2020 VT Supporter Popular Post Share Posted August 18, 2020 He seems to be getting a lot of shit for doing his coaching badges. I honestly can’t think of a single negative. He might end up being a shit coach but can’t really have a go for him doing his badges 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ_Villain Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 Proud of him and happy for him His Villa career went off the rails after MON left... He started to bulk up in the Houllier era and lost his pace... and it all went tits up from there... But thats all in the past... He is our record Premier League goal scorer, provided us with a lot of happy memories... Im happy for him... Crack on Gabby! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJ Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 I love Gabby, and will wish him well. When I watched Villa games in 2008/ 2009, I looked forward to seeing him in action as much as I do Grealish these days. The stick he got on here I thought was a bit over the top. Yes, he did go into decline, but I think there were quite a few " If " moments in his career after MON. If he didn't try to bulk up, if he didn't change from a centre forward to the wing, and maybe more ifs, things could have turned out differently. Honestly, I doubt he will be a successful coach, but as long as he is happy, I am cool with that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 I bet he'd be no worse than some of the clowns and frauds that have managed him over the years. If Tim Sherwood could coach 2 of the biggest clubs in English football without even doing his badges, I won't begrudge Gabby trying to go about it the right way. He's a cool guy too. I'm rooting for him. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still lives in Birmingham and his parents moved from Scotland and are now Brummies. That's quite funny since I remember Barry Bannan's MySpace (I know) popping up on here when he was still a bairn saying Brum was shit. Good old Birmingham, it grows on you. Like the Villa in a way, not fashionable but those that come and embrace it are embraced back in turn and become one of us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm rooting for him. Tim Sherwood is a passion merchant. He haven't really done well for a full season. He's a good man to take over a struggling team with 10 games to go, lift their spirit and get their confidence up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a squad player obviously. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post S-Platt Posted August 21, 2020 VT Supporter Popular Post Share Posted August 21, 2020 My favourite Gabby memory was in Prague we won the game 1-0 Carew scoring. Villa fans piled into the Old Town after the game looking for places to drink and celebrate to wee hours. First bar me and my mates end up in is rammed full of Villa kind of seedy joint women dancing on bars and so on. There is a jukebox that has Karma Chameleon on it so everybody is slowy getting hammered singing Gabbys song along with the original on the Jukebox. Some guy comes around with a bucket wanting cash to get the girls on the bar to strip. Money soon fills up the bucket and everyone is in good spirits. The girls start to strip and Karma Chameleon comes back on the jukebox que the whole place going mad jumping up and down singing Gabby Gabby Gabby Agbonlahor not giving 2 shits about the naked ladies! They were bemused to say the least! If you were there it was just a mental experience that always makes me smile 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeyp102 Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 Credit to Gabby, he’s got a job on Talksport now. I’ve not listened but appears he’s not shirking. Is very critical of Southgate and is questioning Jacks omission, also saying that it’s personal And that Jack doesn’t need to leave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HanoiVillan Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 Did Leeds - who are famously very hard-working, and up for every match - need a tweet to get motivated? No, of course they didn't. An absolute non-story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villalad21 Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 Not just Gabby either. All the Leeds trash talking by Villa fans pre game. It will just fuel them Leeds are not our rivals. Stop treating them like they are. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
