    The Summer 2020 Transfer Rumour Thread

    I wasn't suggesting sacking him now, that would be ridiculous. I regret that we did not dispense of his services at the end of the season. I think it is pretty safe to say we are after Watkins and Wilson. Surprisingly some reports in the press are accurate, I seem to recall Matt Cash being...

    The Summer 2020 Transfer Rumour Thread

    I am very concerned by the quality of player we are linked with and our inability to sign even these flawed targets. After a season where we achieved 35 points the most important thing was to add 6 players quickly to this squad - particularly in goal, CH, midfield and a front 3. We have...

    The Conor Hourihane Thread

    He passed the ball to the Bulgarians which started the move for their goal. He was generally anonymous, defensively weak, mixed bag of set pieces and a couple of good passes. A standard game for Hourihane at club and international level.

    Match Thread: Aston Villa v Derby County, Sat 2nd March, 3pm

    Glenn Whelan man of the match for me, he has got better with every game since he came on as sub and turned the game against Sheffield Utd. Grealish is an absolute star and watching that goal go in from my position, dead centre back of the lower North, was an absolute pleasure. Carrol looked...

    RIP Deadly Doug Ellis

    RIP Doug. You were a gentleman who always gave your time to chat to fans, even when times were tough for you. I loved the GT, Big Ron and Little eras, some great memories.

    The Official Dean Smith Thread

    The new Messiah and Jesus to boot. Happy with this, Dean is of the Rotterdam generation so he understands what we are and what we expect. Let's have a singsong!

    Time for a new manager?

    Jorge Jesus is an interesting one. His record in Portugal is impressive. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jorge_Jesus

    Colin Calderwood

    A totally disrespectful action by a paid member of staff towards fans who pay for the right to voice their opinions. He should not step foot in VP again.

    Aston Villa v Preston North End Tuesday 2nd October , 19.45 K.O.

    A man who has relegated every team he has promoted was never good enough for Aston Villa. A terrible appointment who has managed 4 or 5 entertaining performances out of over 100. Unfortunately I have witnessed first hand way too many of them.

    Aston Villa v Preston North End Tuesday 2nd October , 19.45 K.O.

    Which one of his sub standard coaching team was sticking two fingers at the fans and aggressively gesticulating because we had managed an equaliser against bottom of the table Preston? Bruce and his staff need to be fired in the morning for disrespecting the fans who paid good money to watch...

    It is only August and we have failed to beat Brentford, Ipswich, Reading and Burton. A really humiliating result tonight.

    Villa V Reading: Sat, 25th Aug, 15.00

    A dreadful, sluggish performance. By the end of the game Bruce had 2 right backs on the pitch with neither playing in that position - Hutton and Elmo. 3 centre halves with one playing right back and one who was signed as a central midfielder. 1 out of form left back playing left wing back and...

    Fulham v Villa Match Thread

    By bringing in Axel he disrupted the defence. By replacing Albert with a centrehalf playing at right back he lost any adventure in the team. By replacing Jack with Thor he put defence before attack. We got what we deserved, nothing. He should have replaced Jack with O'Hare but he prefered to...

    Middlesbrough v Villa: Saturday 30th Dec, 3pm.

    Bruce seemingly only trusts Spurs youth team players even when they are hopelessly out of form. I wonder where he will play Josh Anonymous today, in goal?

    Middlesbrough v Villa: Saturday 30th Dec, 3pm.

    A right back at left back hmmm. Josh Anonymous must be on a guaranteed play contract because his performances do not warrant a place on the bench never mind the 1st XI. Hogan will be isolated, Snodgrass will be inneffective as he is out of form, overweight and solely left footed but played on...
