Arrogance has taken over in football, to much money for doing fuckall. It is a disgrace.Barry fucking Bannan is not fit to lace a proper footballers boots. Fuck me, i bet Mr Cowans cringes at some of these tossers.Not every player is like Bannan though. There were plenty Big Time Charlie's back in the day as well.

We're not down yet and we can still stay up. So all's not lost, yet.
Everyone seems utterly convinced that QPR and Wigan are going to charge up the table but that we are completely incapable of the same. There's just no logic to it.

There's just no logic to it.I suppose current form is a decent measurement of which direction teams are headingIn the last 4 games we've taken 2 pointsReading 9 ptsWigan 4ptsQPR 5 ptsNewcastle have taken 1 pointDraw your own conclusions from that

Even in 86-87 I don't remember us being this appalling. We spent two years in division three in the 70s, we've been much worse. We've got the basis of a half decent side but they desperately need some help.

i can remember scapegoats of old Aan Wright got a load of stick and Frank Caradous at times, both were decent players as well but Bannans treatment is as bad a s anything i've seen at VP to be honest

Fuck me, i bet Mr Cowans cringes at some of these tossers.Not every player is like Bannan though. There were plenty Big Time Charlie's back in the day as well.A lot less in number though. It seems to me that anybody who pulls on a Premier League shirt thinks that they are supreme to everybody else. By buying tickets and other merchandise, we, the fans pay your fucking ridiculously high wages you tossers. Give us some of the respect back that we give you. FFS. Oh, and a couple of visits to the local hospital around Christmas time to hand out a few gifts to poorly kids doesnt do it for me either. Give a weeks worth of your fucking wages to the kids parents so they can afford to live, you overpaid fucking useless wankers. Fuck me i am wound up today. Bollocks to the fucking lot of them. Don't know how they have the fucking nerve to put on a Villa shirt, i really dont.
I don't remember it being any different. If players were continually shite they got dogs abuse from some fans. It's part of football.

It's also fortunate that those who complain today about lack of communication from the club weren't around then, since communication with fans hadn't been invented then, apart from some poor hack from the Birmingham Mail who had to find stories every week from somewhere

He's pathetic. I'd love to know what % of Bannan's passes were to Vlaar/Clark last night, he did seem truly incapable of passing forwards or more than ten yards, no wonder he was first to be subbed
