Managers normally play their signings in order to justify them. Hutton will be a regular whilst AMc is in charge....

We don't have any other full backs, so as utterly useless as Hutton and Warnock undoubtedly are, we don't really have any alternatives.  The whole club is a shambles.

Yes, we do! One of whom AMc signed himself! Let's play Eric and Edna against QPR, they really can't be any worse!

Eric and Ernie couldn't be any worse!

Im feeling worse too

my dad went in 1957 and saw us win  .

I have seen us win the league with my Dad , I went to the European Cup with my Dad .

I have seen us win 4 league Cup finals with my Dad . 

The only thing I havent got in common with my Dad seeing us win a FA Cup together.

Hes getting on abit , Please Villa , win it in my lifetime.

Please Villa, win it in his Dad's lifetime.

I had a couple of arsenal fans round for dinner and to watch the match. Halfway through last week I had a very good feeling about the cup run and they were quite worried about their chances. At half time, I couldn't believe it.  Then, I'm sorry but it's probably my fault about the result because I tempted fate.  I rang my dad.  'Are you listening?' (he doesn't have ESPN).  No, he said, How many have Arsenal got so far? 
'We're winning 2-0!' 
'Right, I'll switch it on!'  Like JP's Dad, he was there in 57 - and could see the whole thing happening again. I thought, get one more, we're away.  We all know what happened next.  According to Dad, the radio commentary was strictly one-way and he got steadily more depressed as the game wore on!

Please, please Villa, win it again for him.  I can't take another phone call of crushing disappointment like the one at the end of the game. His bewildered voice - 'I thought we were winning?' 
 Or another late sunday dinner with solicitous arsenal fans pretending to sympathise even if they are my nearest and dearest friends!
