Will there be anything else on this thread that hasn't been said on a dozen others?

Doubt it, but what else is there to talk about at the minute?

It makes it bloody difficult for us to keep an eye on this site when there's threads opening every five minutes saying the same things. it's not even as though we're pleasant at the best of times.

This sort of thing pisses me off.

I can't stand being told what I should do by someone preaching at me.

The timing of this is ridiculous, we need to get behind the team right now.. The manager will not be sacked until the end of the season at the earliest so save the effort and put your energy into support.

Please.

"May 6th will be “McLeish Out Day” at Villa Park. If you are our custodian you will see that us organising this during such a run has taken a lot to do and we ask that changes are made and (unlike the past few games) Villa Fans are allowed to display our feelings during the game through banners and placards."

Do what you like as long as it stays out of the ground for 90+ minutes and it's support the Villa untill we're hoarse!


I have to agree with that Nigel, this negative stuff is NOT helping the guys that can do something about it ON the pitch.

I'd rather we stay up THEN replace the Manager still in the Prem.

Tim, the problem is if we do stay up then he will more than likely keep his job. 
So you would rather he was an utter failure than just a failure?  Are you saying you want to take the chance on the board sacking him if we go down?

Whoever wrote the diatribe in the OP needs to be educated in grammar and punctuation.

I refuse to give any credibility to anyone who can't correctly spell the name one of the most important men in our history. Or who thinks he managed over 1000 games.

On the flip side I doubt RL or PF would spot the mistakes.

Feel free to send all the open letters you want chaps, just don't expect me to want to read them. Why, oh why does everyone who writes one think it is so excellent that everyone should read it? I, for one, don't. Once you have read one, you have read them all.

The one thing I would say in defense of the statement from the Villa Management is that it was short and to the point.  The people who write all these rambling open letters should take note.

I'm just shocked Damon has a milkman that delivers Greek yoghurt.
What interesting times we live in.

Two pots, every Saturday, regular as clockwork. Mrs Green ordered it around the same time she decided to get up every morning at 6 and go swimming. Say this about the milkman, at least he's kept his side of the bargain.

Do milkmen still exist? I thought the last one died in captivity in 1983...

I can remember the milkman coming round our old estate in a horse and cart.

And we had a bread man. And a pop man (Alpine)

I remember when I was a nipper we'd visit my nan who lived in Tividale and there was a pop man who used to come round.

Edit: Chico beat me to a pop man reference.
