Gives you an idea of what it would be like if the rags ever built their megabiggadandavilla stadium.

Can't believe Leeds were promoted last week (according to their fans and the media) and yet we're now only a point behind them.

Can't say I've heard any such claims but then again I live just over the border from West Yorkshire.

Leeds are going up chants they sing every game?

They did it last season and it blew up in their faces.

But, from what I can see, nobody has suggested we should be quaking in our boots thinking about the top 6 teams?
Obviously something is bothering you?

Only your ludicrous suggestion that Villa should be quaking in their boots at the top 6.

That's as ludicrous as the top 6, watching our performance against Bolton, and "shitting themselves".

At least you seem to have understood what "top 6" means in the last 24 hours.

The Newcastle - Liverpool game was absolute shite. I can't see Liverpool troubling the title ever again, which is a shame.....

Your inability to understand a simple statement doesn't bother you? If you're a grown adult it should do. It might stop you trying, and failing, at sarcasm.

As I said. At least you finally understood what "top 6" means. That certainly bothered you yesterday.

Martin Tyler was beside himself with love today watching the 2 clubs he adores the most waxing lyrical about how great they both are. Apparently it’s one of life’s great mysteries why Newcastle haven’t won a trophy for about 50+ years. It’s quite simple, Martin, they’ve been shit for the vast majority of that time. Nothing to do with curses or bad luck, they’ve been shit.

That's it?! They've also sung about being champions of Europe for decades. Every single football chant is taken literally these days and *insert team name here* are the greatest team, the world has ever seen etc?

I like Klopp but what the fuck was he doing spending £40 million on an Arsenal squad player who is no better than any of his midfielders when their defence is such a mess?

Surely that's Koeman gone now.  What a spectacular waste of the Lukaku money that looks.


He might have got away with it if he had got Giroud in like he wanted. His apparent lack of a plan B when that didn't happen could cost him his job.

Considering he knew damn well that Lukaku was leaving well before the end of last season - and that he'd command a pretty whopping fee - it's staggering that Koeman failed to sign a replacement over the summer. If Giroud was his one and only target he's a complete berk.

What on earth are you rambling on about?

Some basic manners wouldn't go amiss, by the way.
