kurtsimonw Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 They're really thick if they think they should be allowed more than the maximum allocation. Yes, season ticket holders should have to give up seats at Villa Park to Newcastle fans, seems fair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delusions of grandeur maybe, but intelligence, nah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulC Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Tottenham last game could be important or maybe the title will be done and dusted by then and will be a comfortable home win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 It better not. Big win for Newcastle though, f***ing Cabaye!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mantis Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 I'm surprised so many want Newcastle to go down. Sure it'd be funny at first but they'll be the biggest threat to us in the Championship. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get that sorted and then we can start demanding which teams come down with us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Yes a lot of things can happen. I personally would rather Newcastle stay up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right, but I think that applies to us and to Newcastle and to the Championship as a whole - I think it's a much tougher division than just us and Newcastle!

VillaChris Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 I know but we have a lot to do....new manager, overhaul of squad, heck even get our board numbers up as Bernstein and King have walked and haven't even been replaced. I naively thought we'd use this time we have over the two other relegated teams to do those things but clearly not. In any case there's still two promotion spots in play regardless if Newcastle are there or not. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This squad has now lost what, a dozen games in a row? You think it's all going to get better because the punishment will stop happening each week, but it's not going to. Our players have a losing mentality beaten into them, they're not suddenly going to turn into world-beaters while they're on the piss in Magaluf in July. I don't for one minute believe that we're going to get bought either. Anyway, taking this back on topic, Newcastle being relegated would be funny no matter what, but they've got a cast-iron three points next weekend. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please just read what I've been saying. I'm NOT saying that this group of words removed will suddenly turn into anything other than the pathetic losers they are. What I am saying is that a lot can happen between now and September with regards to the ownership and composition of the squad. Key point there being can. I agree that Newcastle will get 3 points against us though - without a doubt. Edited April 30, 2016 by Mantis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-Platt Posted April 30, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted April 30, 2016 Pardew and Cabaye's brown envelopes will be waiting for them from Ashley when they get home. Very suspicious! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
