Title: Spleen Venting A-Z
Post by: russon on January 09, 2013, 08:08:08 AM
In which we compile an A-Z of words to describe the current malaise (that's M sorted already)

A - Abject. How else can you describe a club that capitulates to a team three divisions below them who themselves conceded 4 goals to Rochdale in their last home game.

B - Bothered. The team clearly isn't, as they keep serving the same shite up week after week. Then they ignore the fans that pay good money to come and cheer them on.

I've had that all morning as well.  From gimps who know nothing about football mainly.   And as I'm a bitter, resentful bastard, all their names have been mentally logged until next Christmas when it's bonus review time.

3 years ago we aspired to be top four
2 years ago we aspired to be top half
1 year ago we aspired to be above the albion
now we aspire to be above QPR/reading/southampton/ wigan
next year we'll aspire to be in the premier league

after that god knows where we will aspire to be

We wouldn't have reached this point. Under Doug we were always a player or two short of being up with the top guns. Now we are a squad away more or less.

And to amend it slightly, in the PL era we only came close to relegation three times (never so close as we did last year) and he always took action to change things. Good signings in 1995, 2003 and selling up in 2006.

Randy is letting the slide continue. He's either broke or incompetent. Neither good.

F is for only Four hours of this historically horrible Fucking day to get through.

I have seen us lose hundreds of times.   I have seen us thrashed dozens of times but today was the worst day I have ever experienced for piss taking.   I have worked the fruit and veg sales of east anglia and at twenty minute intervals all day I have had to endure some imbecile wanker telling me that Villa are crap.

This is the football club my father's brother said was on the lips of Birmingham lads when they went over the top in Flanders.

A club we now have to be told "to get behind" by the public address system when they take the field and whose supporters have to be drowned out at the final whistle by information about match programmes.   What has become of us?
