To start off I will offer 3 suggestions.
(A) David "pig face" O' Leary
(B) Robert Hopkins.
(3)Mr "I Have Maradonnas shirt and have a book out.
Can any one top them ?
-
Racist Peter Schmeichel who played well enough to, arguably, cost us the title in 1993. Then proceded to be utterly shit for us.
-
Paul Mortimer for flicking the V's at the Holte?
-
Don't remember that?
-
Gregnash.
-
Everything I have ever heard about Lee Hendrie makes him sound a nobhead.
-
Has to be Pigface.
We've had worse managers results-wise.
And in two out of his three seasons we were in contention for Europe, despite having little to spend.
But for the "Aston Villa last got to a cup final in 1980 or something" remark he should have been chased out long before the players statement and subsequent fallout. Such utter contempt.
-
Paul Mortimer for flicking the V's at the Holte?
Ya, and that was after he scored at the Holte End. Tosspot.

It annoys me that he has a genuine claim to Villa fame.
-
Two, I think. Only keeper to score and oldest Premier League goalscorer (yes, I know Premier League records are lame). Who is our oldest ever scorer? Can't find it on web.
-
Noel Blake has to go on the list. Sacked for thieving from his teammates pockets in the dressing room
-
Stan Collymore
-
Stan Collymore
Total knobhead
-
steve hodge
-
O`Leary has been the most diseputable.
The Board of Directors in place until 1968 the most harmful.
-
The designer of the new Trinity Road outside facade and Ellis for allowing it to happen.
-
Alpay wasn't great...
-
Nigel Callaghan
-

Without looking it up he was our oldest debutant and/or oldest goalscorer.
-

Never happened did it? It was more of a "forget it" wave of the hand.
-
Someone like Hopkins would be delighted to make this list. He'd see it as the culmination of his lifes work.
So as he never really made the first team on any regualr basis, i'll just dismiss him as a prick as oppossed to a Prick with Villa associations.
Can't see any further than DOL as the winner. Never really seen anybody anywhere, media, fans etc say anything nice about him as a bloke, player or manager.
-
Sasa Curcic?

Sasa Curcic?
Sasa was ok, he was just barking mad!
-
Can someone explain why Robert Hopkins is seen as such a prick as he is before my time in supporting villa and dont remember hearing about him before, it's normally steve hodge everyone i know seems to hate.
-
Honourable mention to John Fashanu - complete and utter spunk monkey who I never liked before, during or after his Villa playing days.
-

He played for us, supported them, hung around with Zulus and played his final match for us away at Notts County wearing their badge on his shirt.

Not forgetting his silly, wispy little moustache. Our Gran's was more impressive that that

Michael Oakes allegedly ::)

Coopers Injury
-
1) Scum Collymore
2) Mr F1ckle
3) Billy McNeill
-
Robert Hopkins
David O'Leary
Simon Stainrod
-
Steve Hodge, a shocker from the most shocking period of our history.
-
Wasn`t the biggest prick Dion Dublin?? a la Errol Flynn and his trouser snake. :o :o
-
Hopkins - for no other reason than for kicking me up in the air after I had nut-megged him when he was player-manager of a Sunday league side.

I misread that first time round and I thought you said that you nutted him.
In which case his response would be understandable.
-
Just occured to me, its nothing personal against the guy but I think Enkleman deserves a dishourable mention.
I am still embarrassed, hurt, pained, incredulous, disbelieving, staggered, etc about THAT incident in THAT game.
If he was going to make a complete and utter prick of himself while wearing our shirt, why couldnt he do it against somebody like wigan or bolton ?
-
Peter Enkleman
David O'leary
Doug Ellis for all his bollocks
In no particular order...
-
In no real order, Ellis,Hodge,O'Leary,Aspinall.
-

I thought it was Michael Oakes.
-
phil Thompson ????????,,,,,,,old big nose,tw*t
-
You would think Robert Hopkins is a prick until you meet him. Then you know he's a prick. Surprised Aspinall got a mention, I thought he played a big part in us going straight back up.
-
Nigel Callaghan, David O'Leary and Steve Hodge.
As an aside, I remember Robert Hopkins Villa Park debut. He came off the bench and I think scored pretty much immediately.
-
Bossie
OK not necessarily a prick from a playing perspective but a prick of the highest order in his private life and in his minimal career since he left the Villa.

He's a prick because he had so much natural talent he could easily have been one of the greatest keepers of all time. A bit like Collymore,again so much talent gone to waste eventually.
-
Bossie is also a prick for a comment as a pundit on Aussie TV a while before a Chelsea v Man Utd game.
So then Mark, which of your former Clubs do you still follow?
MB, ''Oh Chelsea, as I enjoyed my time there and liked the area''. What a cnut.
It's a though he played 227 games for Chelsea and not the Villa (He actually played 7 games for Chelsea in the League Cup). He barely mentions his Man Utd career at all.
And the idiot Aussie TV presenter knows so little about football that they never pick him up on it.

Of course he could have said, "Villa, whose fans mercilessly ripped me apart for 90 minutes when I went back with Manchester United, calling me every name under the sun and even singing a song about me cumming all over Dwight Yorke's arse."
I think he might bear a grudge!
-
He deserved every bit of that abuse.
-
Peter Enkleman
David O'leary
Doug Ellis for all his bollocks
In no particular order...
Just noticed this. Why? Surely not just because of the blues game alone?
-
Already said Robert Hopkins, but he was such a gigantic penis, I thought it was worth mentioning again.
Robert Hopkins - Crap moustached, Hitler haircut, rat faced tosser.
-
Peter Enkleman

Because he can't get Peter Enckelman right?
-
He is a bit of a cock on fox sports, but I far prefer him and Slater to the MOTD twats in the UK. I just remember him as being a very good goalkeeper for us in a decent side at a relatively successful period. I was watching when he made those chelsea comments and know what you mean though.
For me though, it has to be that Pug-nosed cvnt O'Leary. How he managed to land the job in the first place is beyond me. You would've thought Ellis would have him sussed out after getting his fingers burnt before with the likes of Turner and McNeill
-
Robert Hopkins, Steve Hodge, DOL and James Milner
-
John Fashanu must be up there for his appalling treatment of his brother
-
John Fashanu must be up there for his appalling performances as a footballer. AWOOOGA!

Christ, after you bringing those 2 points up, he's actually now on a par for me with hitler and that prick from the Go Compare ads.
-
I have to say that David Platt has annoyed the fuckin life out of me since the day he left and has done absolutely nothing to show me that he has any feeling for us what so ever.
-
Platt. An Arse Licker.
-
Stephen Ireland, anyone?
-
Stephen Ireland, anyone?
He is going the right way, but needs to keep it up for afew more games. Showing promise though.
-
Robert Hopkins, Steve Hodge, DOL and James Milner
Not sure how you can mention Milner in the same breath as the others, to be honest.

Agreed. Including Milner is harsh indeed!
-
Hodge, Hopkins, McNeill, O'Leary, Doug, Alpay and David Unsworth.
-
I forgot Tony cascarino.
-
Andy Gray
-
David Unsworth deserves a shout
-
I had forgotten about Alpay the two faced, badge kissing cnut
-

Not expecting a Christmas card this year?

Robert Hopkins by a cuntry mile. Should have been binned at birth.
But add David Cameron to the list too.
And the Pavarotti lookalike who tried to get the Holte End to sing "Youll Never Walk Alone" v Liverpool.
-

That was Dave Chance. Apparently it was all Dougs idea and DC tried to tell him it wasnt a great one but , strangely enough, Doug wouldnt listen. Poor old Dave then had to stand in front of the Holte End singing a song he didnt want to sing in the first place and getting dogs abuse for it!

In which case I apologise to the wrongly accused, and wrongly abused, Mr Chance.
Strike that man off my list.

Well said,this post should be closed now,no ones gonna top that!

"You'll Never Walk Alone".....I think wearing a Pink suit there's every chance you will be. Deserved the abuse for the pink suit alone.

Stephen Fucking Ireland.

Stephen Fucking Ireland.
Yep, he'd have to be on the shortlist now.

Definetely. After he has left, an interview critical of the Villa much in the same way as his views of Manchester City when leaving them should secure his place in this roll of dishonour.

The only hope he has for saving some face is retiring and apologising to the club and fans, saying he was not in the right frame of mind... it'll never happen though.
-
What? So changing his mind and getting his head straight before returning to top form would not be good enough?
I agree though that neither of these things will happen.
-
Robert Hopkins
Noel Blake
Steve Hodge
David Platt
-
Think Downing's name soon will be on this list.
-
David Platt???????
You have to be joking !!
