Title: Statistics Since We Became Rubbish Thread.
Post by: kippaxvilla2 on October 02, 2016, 03:01:42 PM: I will start it off.

Since May 2015 - Villa have four wins, Barcelona have five trophies.

In the same period Villa have four wins and four managers possibly soon to be five.

Post by: clash city rocker on October 02, 2016, 03:19:24 PM: Well here are my statistics. In the last few years during the football season Villa have usually managed to ruin my Saturday nights...my Sunday nights..my Tuesday nights and my Wednesday nights....On top of that my Friday nights are ruined because I know we will be shit on Saturday and Monday nights are crap as when I get home and read the paper we hardly get a mention as its all about premiership football...So basically I'm left with Thursday nights and the cricket season to enjoy. Thanks for that Villa.

Post by: ciggiesnbeer on October 02, 2016, 11:24:59 PM: Imagine my face looking at the starting line up before each game over the past five or so years.

It starts off with me smiling, grabbing a beer to make sure I can watch the game without missing anything.

It ends with me swearing uncontrollably and walking away not being arsed to even watch the inevitable failure.

Now fill in a montage of the several hundred inbetween shots as I go from one state to the other and you have it.

Post by: VancouverLion on October 03, 2016, 05:59:22 AM: Whilst frantically searching for streams yesterday morning because at 2-0 and playing 4-1-5 I somehow had to see it with my own eyes, my missus turned to me and said " when are you going to grow up, stop ruining every weekend and concede defeat, it's disturbing for me and your daughter to see you distraught week after week"

FFS, this game is supposedly fun, enjoyable, bring joy, make your weekend.
Not for me, for years now.

At about 7PM on Saturday my wife came up to me as I tapped out some vitriol about RDM onto the Interweb - she stood, quietly, patiently, a look of infinite compassion on her face and asked what was the matter (she knew bless her). My diatribe of barely supressed anger lasted about 90 seconds and then petered out as she smiled serenely and said "fancy a gin?" I love that woman...

I think it depends how long it continues. At the moment, judging by the away support, loyalty is being maintained. Several seasons in the stiffs (or worse!) and you will begin to see the drift away, I suspect.

Loyalty of this generation but I'm worried about the next generation falling to the dark side and becoming glory hunters. If you are in to football as a youngster right now there's pretty much no reason to watch or even consider us unless your old man is forcing you to.

I travel 400 miles round trip average for home games, pretty much the same for away games averaging it out. I have seen 30 of the last 51 but missed two of the wins. That works out about 6,000 miles per win.

Statistically speaking, if during the next five years we could could put together a set of results which were the precise opposite of the last five years we would most likely as not win promotion, win the Premier League, win a couple of League Cups and FA Cups, the Champions League, the World Cup Championship, X Factor, Strictly, The Apprentice, Britains got Talent, and I'm a Villa fan get me out of here.

But not Bake Off? We need to know?
