Is he still here ? Bore off you moron .
-
Oops, the title should read 'chief executive' instead of 'chairman'. Not sure if you can modify the title? Perhaps a Mod can do it.
-
Just wanted to get in before the lock.

Hopefully we can keep the politics out of this one. Or we may as well never mention Rangers and Celtic on H&V again.

I don't accept his apology.
As a Villa supporter of over 40 years, I felt like he was calling me completely useless.
I want financial compensation from him for the distress he has caused me in the last few days.
He may not have said the exact words, but I felt like he thought I was a pleb.
I'm not going to let this rest.
-
I want a public inquiry.
-
Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You dis-par-age my football team. Prepare to die.
-
Whilst we welcome and accept his apology BASTARDS will continue to fight for a separate and free Birmingham.
-
Is this the Year of the Insincere Apology?
Seems to be one coming out after another.
Didn't mean to stir it all up again.
Sorry about that.

Thought we agreed on being named the Commitee for Unionist Nationalist Transitional Seperation.

There's a rat in separate. Mr Baker I'm learning, me.
-
I assume this is Brian Doogan's doing? I like the cut of his jib.
-

I have such a warm internal glow now.

-
His view and he' welcome to it. I suspect he plucked Villa off the top of his head and has been informed of offence taken by this. Frankly I'd prefer him to stick to his guns if thats' what he believes rather than issue an insincere apology.
-
I am the undisputed World Council approved top alpha male of the Green clan. It is my job to spout bollocks off the top of my head, not his. Bloody jock pipsqueak.

Have a word with Alan Green then please!

I would prefer him to stick his own cock up his own arse and then break his back doing it. Twunt.

Did he apologise for 1974 at the same time?

1976 if you mean the friendly?

"Friendly" makes me laugh.

How useless are his bankrupt non league team

Shall I do the UB40 joke?

Couldn't care less.
Jog on.

The thing that makes me smile at this story is that looking around the web, Rangers supporters really think that the rest of the world cares more about them than us, and that they (and Celtic, which is almost as laughable) would be a shoe-in for a European league. They can get as many 40,000 gates as they like but the fact is that nobody outside their own supporters could care less about either of them.
-
Apology accepted. Moving on now.
-

They are NOT non league !
The Highland league turned down their application on the basis that they are located south of The Trossachs.

Spot on. Cant stand either of them for a number of reasons in cluding this. Pair of vile clubs.

Exactly. We don't claim to belong in the same league as Real, Barcelona, the Milan clubs et al.
-
Fuck Rangers and fuck Celtic, Their league is shit and I couldn't care less.
As for the apology fuck off
-

I suppose that comes from the fact that they are used to qualifying for the CL. Although they have both been shite in it for ages.
-

I got in trouble for referring to them as an old married couple who hated each other, but refused to get divorced
-
Who you get in trouble with?
-
Rangers fans on Twitter. Celtic fans less so.
-
Can we have a poll for how long we think before this thread gets locked again?
I vote before midnight.

Eloquency in the age of Twatter and txting is just hard to achieve nowadays.
You just achieved it, my friend.

I'll follow you then Damon I like a good argument

Banks's Bitter, in bottles only sorry to say.

Is Cat Deeley a Villa fan?

Every time a club which has never discriminated on religious grounds gets lumped with one which has.

No, Diana's brother, the one with the narrow face

Snooker Loopy: pure anti-Welsh sectarianism
Now Terry the taff was born in a gaff
In the valleys of the land of song
And as the reds he puts to bed
He likes to sing along
And if I win he says with a grin
It can only help me can't it
I'll celebrate, I'll buy another eight
'Hairbrushes for me barnet'

Bloody welsh get everywhere.

I reckon he was the 'go to guy' in the 70's for any parts requiring a Welshman.

When Windsor Davies was busy.
-
Who was the Welshman in Dad's Army? -I mean his character's name. He had buck teeth and his eyes set very close together like two currants in an unbaked rock cake.

Forgot about him. Suppose Max Boyce could have stepped in too.

A quick search reveals there was a Welsh character called Private Cheeseman from series 7.

Kicked out because John Lawrie complained he was getting too many laughs.

apparently the OS has a club statement now about this. They suggest Mr Green should fuck off back to his day job. They put it a little more politely off course but it's just as cutting as the remarks made about that fat dwarf from West Ham.

Yes I just read it and love it, our statements are getting better and better

Just read it. Love the little digs made whilst it still remains generally diplomatic. Every bit as good as the one about the cockney smut-peddler.
-
And the horse you rode in on, Mr Green.
-
Whoever is penning our statements in response to the knockers is deserving of the highest praise. First Sullivan and now Green. So, come on, whose next?
-
Excellent statement; understated but cutting with it. Marvellous.
-
So, come on, whose next?
Perhaps a statement released near the end of the season (when it is clear we won't be relegated) calling on the BBC to sack Mr Savage because he is a sheep-shagging bastard who knows nothing about football?

Villa were surprised late last week when a Charles Green took a swipe at the club.
Whilst admittedly bizarre and out of left field, Green did later apologise, as set out below, stating that he was aware of Villa's pedigree from a defeat of Sheffield Utd when he had worked there.
We are hoping that going forward Green will retreat to his day job and leave the cutting remarks for those standing on somewhat stronger footing.
Apology from Charles Green, Chief Executive of Rangers Football Club, to Aston Villa:-
"During a press briefing I was asked how I saw the future of football. I was explaining how I believed that the current situation where clubs in England are receiving massive revenues from television rights, yet remain behind the big clubs in England and Europe in terms of success in competition, is unlikely to continue forever. Some of my remarks were taken out of context and I apologise unreservedly to Aston Villa, whom I know full well to be a club with a proud history. I remember clearly - but not too fondly - them beating Sheffield Utd in the FA Cup when I was chief executive there."
-
Love it.
-
Fantastic response!

Very good from our press guy. He's even managed to avoid having a dig at totally blameless Celtic. I wish he'd sign up on here.
