I think his comments stem from the recent behaviour of the likes of Milner and Downing as much as the players he played with for England. I respect him as an individual for his character (off the pitch) but I detest him for the number of straight red cards he should have received but never did.
Quote from: Billy Walker on July 10, 2011, 01:35:55 PMI'm not so sure he picked our name at random. I remember Ferguson referring to Villa as "a good little side" back in the mid-nineties. I think Fergie has instilled an air of disdain in his players about Aston Villa - it's part of the reason why they have developed this great winning record against us these past fifteen years. The problem here is that we haven't had a manager or leadership at the club these past fifteen years with the balls and winning mentality to tell Fergie and Man Utd where to go. It's time for us to give them a good, old-fashioned Villa Park hiding - the natural order needs to be restored.uh-huh..................and this hiding.......how exactly is that going to happen pray tell......................maybe if we can persuade Messi to partner Bent and have Milner back.

Clappy thing for Scholes. I wonder which player he had in mind when he specifically named us?Barry? Vassell? Southgate?
it's funny because neither barry or southgate ended up at the 'top' clubs they were attempting to engineer a move to.
