The Aston Villa Thread

[Another Walkley Owl]

I point you to a man who has almost single-handedly cost us about 15 points.

Are you sure he's not cost you 15 pts with both hands?
BTW that picture looks like the easiest "spot the ball" competition I have ever seen.

Yeah, with him in goal it'd be about 2 feet to the side of him.

Next season is the big one fellas. I was very hopeful this season with the money we spent but let's be honest here, you could count on one hand the amount of good performances this season. Away we have been absolutely awful and we have been grinding out results at home. It's not been pretty but I'm hoping for a strong end to the season and then hopefully carrying on into next season. This season I'm hoping has been a massive reality check for us villa fans. UTV

 

[Benji]

I'm excited about Birkir Bjarnason. He was excellent at the Euros, but has apparently been rather naff for Basel since.

Aston Villa did not report abusive scout to police

Sickening to know this happened at our club, if reports are true that the parents didn't want it following up there's not much we could do, but nontheless it is awful to hear this happen at any club, especially your own.

'The Aston Villa Thread'?

There is only one Villa fan on here isn't there?

 

[JaseTheVillain]

Name was changed as I can't call it a laughing stock whilst commenting about child abuse.

Also, no, there's me, Blitzballer and villa loyal. Probably others I'm forgetting too.

seems like it was going on and being covered up everywhere.

 

[Humongous Fungus]

Gonna be an interesting deadline day that's for sure.

Nah he's dropped it!

 

[Benji]

Did anyone ever notice how Steve Bruce looks just like the bird lady from Home Alone 2?

 

[Blitzballer]

although Bruce's nose looks like it been broken more than once

 

[villa loyal]

What the fuck is going on.75 million spent and probably closer to relegation than the play offs.

 

[Kilburn Ram]

Spending a shedload of cash doesn't guarantee owt in this division pal.

Look at us for proof of that. Mind you, we've not spent anywhere near what you have.

Hard work, discipline, organisation, a settled side, low numbers of injuries, and a sprinkling of quality is what gets you out this league. You cannot throw money at it.

 

[JaseTheVillain]

Mentality problems still about in the dressing room then regardless of signing every man and his dog.

Has some pissed off gypsy put a curse on us or something?

very true but we should be doing much better.

yeah, El Guapo.

 

[JaseTheVillain]

Found the heatmap from today's game.

 

[MJA]

If only Villa had just thrown a bit of money at their squad they might not be so shit.................

 

[JJH]

Can't just throw money at it and expect them to gel into a team, will take time but it'll come under Bruce.

 

[MJA]

And until that time comes we shall make it our priority to mock and laugh

 

[Craig]

COME HOME CONOR!!

 

[JaseTheVillain]

Hogan confirmed and we're all done. Good window, just need the squad to settle down and gel now. Idiots in our support thought we'd be storming the play-offs after these signings. No chance. Minor improvements and make a good go of things next season and I'll be happy.

 

[El Guapo]

yeah, El Guapo.

I might have inadvertently put a curse on Blues as well...

 

[JaseTheVillain]

So, when do we start to see relegation as a serious threat?

8 points off and (literally) cannot buy a win. It's not looking good.

 

[G.B]

you'll be alright... eventually. you just need to kick more goals in the net and that, which should come in time given your MASSIF transfer outlay. some tough games coming up in your next 5 though.

 

[Benji]

So Villa haven't won since Boxing Day now. You'd think that expensively hoovering up some of the best performers in the division would have improved them, but not yet it hasn't.

 

[JaseTheVillain]

Could a mod move this to the league one forum at the end of the season please?
