Nicely put Dave. A good read which captures the here and now and the hope that we Villa fans have for a much brighter future.

It's the hope that kills you.

True. You should bundle all these weekly reviews for 15/16 and get the club to sell them instead of the season review DVD. At least it would be informed rather than a horror show. (Think it's "nous" though).

Not a lot you can say really.We are in an empty void waiting for something to happen . Hopefully it will be soon, very soon!

Thanks for the articles Dave your final one reminded me of something Betty Saxe-Coburg-Gotha once said

"... is not a year on which I shall look back with undiluted pleasure. In the words of one of my more sympathetic correspondents, it has turned out to be an Annus Horribilis".

Not sure if we're an empty void? I'd say more of a stinky, stagnant pool in dire need of emptying and cleaning out. Fingers crossed...

Eloquently written

I really do feel this is the most important time in our history and genuinely feel that we have as much chance of going in the opposite direction as we do going forward.

Whoever has our future in their hands - please do not fuck it up

She's not keen on the Chinese either.Probably had a word with Wills along the lines of "one thinks your team is buggered".

Thanks, Dave, for a season spent repeating yourself, yet in a way that still makes the Monday morning read both interesting and informative.  No easy task!

Dave, no doubt you have answered this in the past but I can't remember seeing the photograph before on page 42 of Sunday's programme so please put me out of my misery. Is that your ugly mug standing between the police ? If not it's an uncanny resemblance of a youthful you. Ozzie.

As I said, it's on page 42 of Arsenal's programme from Sunday. I'm not clever enough to scan it in or such like but surely you must know someone who has a copy. Honestly not kidding, just genuinely would like to know.

You expect me to buy such a thing?

Post by: tommy smart on May 18, 2016, 10:26:55 PM
Not an earthly would I expect you to buy a copy but you know enough suckers who purchase such things. Ask one of your 'mates' to check it out, you may be pleasantly surprised.
