In which we debate the continued good fortune of Aston Villa FC in such matters as VAR, goals that never were and, er, anything else we can think of.
-
Endless billionaires who keep rocking up intent on spending their fortune on us. Instead of market traders and hair dressers.
-
Will no one think of the Bournemouth fans?
-
And the complete absence of Gypsy curses.

I always refer back to the summer of 2018. Stoney Broke Tony Bloke was taking them to oblivion and it was simply delicious. Not paying wages, flogging off car parks to pay the leccy bills, a massive FFP hit around the corner, and a dodgy Chinese owner who would only ever sell to another dodgy Chinese owner, because that's what we'd been told to expect. They were on a perfect trajectory to "do a Pompey" and with any luck, eff off down into the non-leagues.
So what happened? There was no selling to any other dodgy Chinese owners. Instead, out of nowhere came two knights in shining armour and within a year they were in the promised land. Even that process fell kindly for them. Albion were a better side than them but lost all their strikers when they met in the playoffs. Of course, vile won the penalty shootout, I'd have expected nothing less. But it was ok, Leeds were an even better side who would muller them in the final after winning at perennial bottlers Derby. Who'd have thought Leeds would press the self destruct button in that second leg, thereby effectively handing vile a bye to the premier league?
And now of course, we had the Sheffield United non-goal.
I'd say that's a pretty lucky two years. Any chance we might escape our 10 year predicament in such a manner? I somehow have my doubts, because you just don't get luck like that do you?
-
And abandoned original historic names with Birmingham suburbs airbrushed.
-
Got away with flouting FFP.
Leeds gave us a goal we didn't deserve and we never gave one to Sheffield.
Lucky that Derby beat Leeds in the play offs as Leeds would have smashed us.
Should have gone bust but we got more billionaires.
We're vile bastards.
-
1034 goals scored this season and only 1 had the goal line technology turned off. DVBS
-
The latest conspiracy theory from the Small Heathens is blaming the Sheff Utd ghost goal on the fact that Prince William, David Cameron and Mervyn King are all Villa fans!!
We’re “spawny Vile fany’s” apparently.
Makes you think though doesn’t it? (*Mental image of David Cameron sneaking out of VP in disguise having just switched off the Hawkeye machine).

That is a work of art. The pain and anguish of the author really flows through his writing.

I climaxed at "of course vile won the penalty shootout".

I love how Derby are 'perennial bottlers'. I've seen other posts on their describing the efforts of West Ham and Arsenal as 'disgraceful' and even, and they like this one where we're concerned, 'disgusting'.
Self awareness is not strong in Small Heath.
-
Its a wonderful piece of prose. That Nose must have made full use of the library at HMP Brum.
One of the best moments on the Internet comes from the SHA forum. There they are, summer 2018, wanking themselves silly over us going bump and then it happens. We're bought out by not one obscenely wealthy billionaire, but two.
The moment of realisation is just delicious.

Simon Jordan, speaking on TalkSport, had the following to say about this Bournemouth business. I don't think it's far wrong.
"If you put a lawyer in charge of a business you will end up in court. So when you are asking a lawyer what potential opportunities there are of course they are going to err on the favour of an opportunity for legal guys to get busy.
"Whenever we hear about legal issues around football, they run through the newspapers and come to nothing, because there is a set of protocols in football that clubs sign up to; one of them is match validity which is the exceptions where referees and technology make a mistake.
"There isn't a case.
"Comparing to Tevez and Mascherano which are clear and utter unequivocal breaches of rules which the clubs agreed, implemented and stand by is very different to compensation culture.
"There is no way games are going to be reversed and there is no way points are going to be brought back into the equation.
"But then we move into the territory of compensation culture, and this is specifically excluded by the nature of what they signed up for. What you are asking for is a legal framework for lawyers to find a place in sport where they can start to find a compensation culture mentality, which means 'when something goes wrong – compensation', 'when something goes wrong – compensation'.
"And that is not what sport was built for.
"I don't like this, and I don't think Bournemouth will do it.
"Ask a lawyer if they'll run this on a no win, no fee basis, and see how clearly they say 'not sure about that one'."
"The Premier League is the sum of all its parts. If Bournemouth, or any of the other 19 clubs, didn't want that technology or had questions about the nature of how it was set up, they had their opportunity to say to Richard Masters or Richard Scudamore before him, 'we are not having that because it doesn't do this'.
"When you don't do that, you can't predict the future.
"Bournemouth got relegated because they were poor, they got relegated because they deserved to get relegated."

That lot aside, there must be a strong correlation between Twitter posters still saying it's soooo unfair and beard-wearing twats who think football is a TV show.
-
(Good thread)
We keep saying we won the European Cup, that was so long ago, it was only just in colour
-
We only reached Wembley as we played a Liverpool team way past their bedtime.
-
They only won the fucking European Cup because of a mis-kick.
-
I have never trusted beard wearers since Richards starred in Secret Santa.
-
We only won the league last time round because of Ipswich blah blah blah.
-
It's ying and yang. If you set the gypsy cursers onto us, this is what happens. It only goes to show that God, clearly, is a Villa fan.
-
One of the best threads ever!
-

Correction. They only won the European Cup because the MP for Small Heath had the temerity to ensure that UEFA didn't ban them after an off-duty soldier had dragged the city's name through the mud.
-
DVB banging on about Sherlock Street but it's not even in Brum, is it? Not that they'd know, they're all from Shropshire.
-
They only won the fucking European Cup because of a mis-kick.
Nah, however we were a little fortunate with Dinamo's penalty miss in Berlin thus setting it up Tony Morley to win it for us. ;)
-
They don't even have a ghost with a forward gear.
-
They were lucky they won all their trophies in the Victorian age, when there were only shit, rag tag, two bob, no hope outfits like Small Heath Alliance around.
-
Coronavirus is just a conspiracy that was invented because John McGinn was going to be out for the rest of the season.

What is this place called town? I hear talk of it but we are not allowed to drink there apparently. Not a problem, darlings, I will just pop off down the road to Worcester in my 4x4 for some champagne instead.
-
Don't forget the Beluga darling.
-
They have no soul in Aston. Only true Brummies burst into tears at the mere mention of Alec Stock.
-

It’s Wednesday, darling. Beluga is Tuesday. Wednesday is strawberries and cream day. Now where are my ascots?

Aston and Witton are not Birmingham. And especially not that Sutton Coldfield but Solihull... yeah we can let that one pass. And just remember DVBs in satellite towns are not Brummies but glory hunters whereas Blues in those towns are proper Brummies who moved out. Never see a Villa shirt in town, DVBs, not that we let them anyways. Long live Paul Mitchell!

He was such a charlatan I suspect even his hairdressing certificate was fake. And no I haven't forgotten he promised to turn Small Heath into Asia's favourite club. Does anybody know if any of the planned BCFC theme bars have opened out there yet?
They are talking a lot about Scott Hogan on Small Time Alliance. They reckon he contributes bugger all if he isn't scoring and that he was anonymous after the restart. Then in the paragraph they are discussing shelling out about three million quid on him and forty grand a week wages.

Will no one think of the Bournemouth fans?
I have been thinking about them. Both of them ;D

I have always genuinely liked Simon Jordan and he seems to have a soft spot for the Villa. Before the takeover he was speaking a lot about Villa on Talksport to the point I suspected he may have been involved if and when we were taken over.

Bloody Chris Swailes heading into his own net in the last minute, Ipswich vs Villa 1995. Helped keep them poxy Vilers up!

Can we get this somehow put to music? Preferably ‘Dry your eyes’ by their Chief Chav, or the Our Tune thing that Simon Bates used to do on Radio 1. Let’s have Jasper Carrott reading it too. I could listen to it all day.
-
Should have been banned from the European Cup Final, got away with it, probably because the EEC and the King of Holland are all Vile bastards.

Wonder if they’ll get on their high horse out our ladies team now we’re in the Women’s Super League with them?

Nope, they definitely stated a few months ago that he was brilliant and one of the best in the division and they were going to have him for a few million because it was already agreed and it would be daylight robbery.
Please, please let there be an agreement in place.

Ipswich would've won the league if it had been 5 points for a win against Vile.

The goal Bayern had disallowed.

And as for that DVB Peter McParland, if there was a proper ref in charge they would never had won in 57..
-
They may have forgotten Legend Zigic kicking it against his own foot and in against us, then the Arsenal defence handing them a tap in for Legend Martens at Wembley. Nothing spawny about those two, oh no.

Managed to get promoted in 1988 on goals scored but only won 9 times at home.

Rowett deserved to go the DVB.

I see a new line in Sport Technology Lawyers being all the rage in 2021.

The reply included the word 'churlish', so at least the League took them in the right spirit.

There was an article about it in H & V at the time, if I recall.

Juanjo Vila has been linked with joining Karankas backroom staff. The DVB.

I'm a DVB. So are you.

Don't forget they got relegated from the PL on 42 points.

One of their own Grealish only went and scored against us after one of our own Paul Mitchell decked him on the pitch that time.
Great thread this!

Sums them up! In fairness, the family Noses were horrified at what happened.
What about Alan Hutton that time? He only went and scored against us after our entire defence stood still on the pitch in front of the Hole Tend!
-
I'm changing my name by deed poll to Barry.
-
Don't get me started on Barry. Some young wunderkind stolen from Plucky Albion by Vile's fellow Establishment Club Barcelona purely so the pink and baby blues don't have to pay a fair fee. Another way of avoiding getting their penalty for breaking FFP rules! 😡😡😡

We only founded the league because someone else didn’t before us - lucky bastards!!

Dean Saunders was clearly offside.

There was initially no plan to award points for draws. Vile get a draw in their first ever league game and, you've guessed it! The league awards them a point!
Just 132 years later than point would prove crucial in keeping the spawny bastards up!

DEFIANT Blues fans took to the streets in protest against the decision not to allow an open-top bus tour through Birmingham to mark the team’s Carling Cup win.
Despite fans last week claiming thousands would gather for their own unofficial celebration, only around 100 gathered in the city centre’s Victoria Square having walked there in small groups following the civic reception at St Andrew’s yesterday.
They then marched through the streets, chanting: “We’re Birmingham City, we’ll do what we want,” as bewildered shoppers looked on.
They stopped outside Aston Villa FC’s official shop on New Street, where they shouted and swore to workers inside, before heading on through Bullring shopping centre up to the Chinese Quarter and along Hurst Street.
They started to disband after getting lost and failing to find Sherlock Street, where they had planned to end their protest over Birmingham City Council’s decision not to hold a parade due to health and safety reasons.
Andrew Henry, a 21-year-old trainee social worker, of Sheldon, attached a huge Blues flag to the columns of the Council House.
“I know I am speaking on behalf of every Birmingham City FC supporter when I say I am disappointed we didn’t get an open-top bus parade,” he said.
Brendan Anderson, 46, a builder of Bartley Green, who was in Victoria Square with his son Liam, 12, added: “I can’t believe we have been denied this parade, it’s a disgrace.”
Carer Kevin Roberts, aged 45, of Yardley, said: “I think it’s appalling. The official celebration was pathetic It would have been much better to have done something last week. It’s spoilt it for me really. It’s like we never won.”

How do those DVBs get so much time off work to go to games?
-
Especially with all the extra travel time they need to drive from The Cotswolds.
-
Roger Johnson 'won' the ball.
-
At least Taity shoves that DVB Richardson in with the rest of the spawny DVBs, it was almost worth the defeat. He needs a t-shirt or maybe we can have a celebration mirror.
-
'They then marched through the streets, chanting: “We’re Birmingham City, we’ll do what we want,” as bewildered shoppers looked on'.
The 'bewildered shoppers' part always brings a smile to my face.
-
Aston's not even part of Birmingham, it was actually just a village in Staffordshire for years.
All Vile fans follow the Pears, only Blose cheer for the Bears.
-
Especially with all the extra travel time they need to drive from The Cotswolds.
Yes, the M5 has been awful over the last 2 or 3 years. I've had to spend so much time in my Range Rover that I missed out on a couple of shooting days.
-
An that DVB Thomas Holte cut his cook's head off.
-
Dean Saunders was clearly offside.
Yes. Even jimmy Greaves said that even though he was in their own half he should have been offside because he looked like he should’ve been.
Dirty vile bastards.

Yes thought of this one on the dog walk this morning.
We really are spawny c***s.
-
That DVB who encroached on the pitch with an offensive weapon (an umbrella) just because Dalian Atkinson had scuffed a goal.
Any other team gets punished heavily when fans encroach and give opposition players a little tap on the side of the head but the vile always get away Scot free when their fans go on the pitch.
It's only because Tom Hanks is a DVB.

Wasn't quite sure this was true, CD, so I asked my blues mate.
He said
'Villa's first League game came on 8 September 1888, when they drew 1–1 Wolverhampton Wanderers as Tom Green scored the club's first League goal. Villa finished runners-up to Preston North End in that inaugural season'
-
I smell bullshit there Nigel. Had you asked your Nose mate he’d have also given a detailed description and the time ‘da Vile’ got the equaliser.

It was in the 7th minute of injury time and offside but VAR wasn't working that day.
-
Everybody called Green is a cheat. His goal should never have counted.
-
That would be Tom Green that played for Albion in the Cup Final, in 1887. Didn't score, Albion lost to Vile and he signed for them shortly afterwards.
Anyone else think that's more than a bit suspicious?
-
An that DVB Thomas Holte cut his cook's head off.
No he didn't and he was let off anyway. The judge was a DVB.

I always refer back to the summer of 2018. Stoney Broke Tony Bloke was taking them to oblivion and it was simply delicious. Not paying wages, flogging off car parks to pay the leccy bills, a massive FFP hit around the corner, and a dodgy Chinese owner who would only ever sell to another dodgy Chinese owner, because that's what we'd been told to expect. They were on a perfect trajectory to "do a Pompey" and with any luck, eff off down into the non-leagues.
So what happened? There was no selling to any other dodgy Chinese owners. Instead, out of nowhere came two knights in shining armour and within a year they were in the promised land. Even that process fell kindly for them. Albion were a better side than them but lost all their strikers when they met in the playoffs. Of course, vile won the penalty shootout, I'd have expected nothing less. But it was ok, Leeds were an even better side who would muller them in the final after winning at perennial bottlers Derby. Who'd have thought Leeds would press the self destruct button in that second leg, thereby effectively handing vile a bye to the premier league? And now of course, we had the Sheffield United non-goal. I'd say that's a pretty lucky two years. Any chance we might escape our 10 year predicament in such a manner? I somehow have my doubts, because you just don't get luck like that do you?
Absolutely love this. It has made my morning. I know we are the chosen one's but didn't realise it was this good.

They are a one man team and without him they would have been relegated by Xmas but Greasy is well overrated he wouldn't get into a decent Championship team like Leeds or baggies.
-
At leats the DVBs won't be turning up at St Andrews (in coaches coz' they're scared) and spawning another jammy win, like they have been for the last 16 years, and we won't have to go to that Vile Park, and watch us get narrowly beaten again, those 11 minutes in dreamland.....if only

I love this one, I've seen a nose on facebook, within a few days of each other, post that "grealish is just a show pony and none of the top teams would be interested" followed by "they're going to be relegated on about 15 points next season whilst Grealish is playing in the champions league". He really didn't like it when I mentioned Grealish would be doing alright for himself given he's so shit.

What I would like to know why only ONE bomb was dropped on Vile Park but HUNDREDS were dropped on Small Heath. Some bullshit story put about by that DVB Hermann Goering that they were aiming at the BSA cycle works.

I have also read them moaning that their players went into the army while ours were in the police.

They said being ARP Wardens at Nechells and Saltley gasworks by Vile volunteers was only because they pinched the coke during the hours of darkness. Thieving Vile fuel stealing spawny bastard old age pensioners.
-
I'd say that we were pretty spawny when NSWE rocked up to save us from Tony ShitShoes' road to oblivion. However some of that may have been in part due to us having a worldwide reputation, tradition, and history that meant something in the game, not to mention a very decent stadium and a significant fanbase with potential to grow. I'm not sure many Billionaires would look upon small trophy cabinet alliance in quite the same way.

Of course, vile won the penalty shootout, I'd have expected nothing less. But it was ok, Leeds were an even better side who would muller them in the final after winning at perennial bottlers Derby. Who'd have thought Leeds would press the self destruct button in that second leg, thereby effectively handing vile a bye to the premier league?
And now of course, we had the Sheffield United non-goal.
I'd say that's a pretty lucky two years. Any chance we might escape our 10 year predicament in such a manner? I somehow have my doubts, because you just don't get luck like that do you?
Can we get this somehow put to music? Preferably ‘Dry your eyes’ by their Chief Chav, or the Our Tune thing that Simon Bates used to do on Radio 1. Let’s have Jasper Carrott reading it too. I could listen to it all day.
I love this post. They should run out at the sty every other week to the 'Our Tune' theme in my opinion ;D

Typical spawny Vile qualifying for the UEFA the first year the ban is lifted. Still, they won’t get past Banik Ostrava.....
I know a Stripey who wrote to the Football League complaining about that.
;D On what was he basing his official complaint???

Don't forget they got relegated from the PL on 42 points.
Not that they mention it much. A bit like a seventies cup defeat to Fulham that they don't mention much.

Ron Saunders first choice centre forward signing in 1980 was Mick Ferguson but Coventry wouldn't sell. So Villa sign Peter Withe and he wins them the league and European cup. Mick Ferguson ends up at blues, falls out with Ron Saunders and gets sent on loan back to Coventry. On the last day of the 1984 season Mick Ferguson scores the goal that saves Coventry and relegates his 'parent club' blues.

That may be the most Blooz thing ever, but personally I like the one from their early years when the forgot to enter the FA Cup.
It’s like it’s been paying them back for their stupidity ever since.

Okay so they forgot to enter it once. What is their excuse for not winning it on any of the other 137 occasions it has been contested? What will it take before they do win it, the opposition goalkeeper breaking his neck?
-
In the post war era Manchester United and Liverpool have had to gain all their glories in the face of quite big local rivals.
Everton and Manchester City have a combined total of 16 league titles and FA cups post war.
Compare this with the Spawny Vile Bastards whose nearest local rivals have a score of 0 on this count in their entire history.

Wasn't it the Blues fan clocking Jack that really trigger our good run to promotion last season?

I think it was the 2nd win and 1st away win in the sequence (beat Derby 4-0)

One thing the spawny vile bastards will never do is retire a shirt. The DVBs will never, NEVER EVER, have such a legend at their vile club.

I don't know when substitute goalkeepers were allowed but it was certainly after 1957 and definitely before 1982.
Double spawny !

I love it that a returning keeper from injury had to play the rest of the game on the wing...and the man who replaced him continue in goal...or was that less rules and more injury protection?
-
This thread should be stickied onto one of their forums.

Spink would never have saved that John Frain penalty. They even had the fortune to bring on Bosnich a former Man united keeper on just before we got the pen. They truly are the spawniest bastards alive.

That goal from that Gary Cahill. he never meant it. He was just practising his ballet. And that Gabby Agbonlahor, he only ever scored against us, it's not like he's their leading Premier Division score or anyfin.

We won the Leyland Daft Cup and The Auto Windscreen Wiper Trophy, with the whole of Birmingham going to Wembley to witness both matches. The DVB’s have never even entered either competition. That’s why we’re the Pride of Brum Tom ! 😂

It is their own fans who with their lifelong persecution complex when it comes to us have convinced themselves that is the case. Whether it is correct or not I am happy for them to believe it.
-

I find it pretty distasteful myself and am surprised one of their own haven't called time on it. It doesn't belittle us personally in any way but for me it is offensive in general.

The level of bitterness on their SHA thread makes great reading. Whatever happens, they'll never be superior to us! I hope they drop next season as they've flirted with it a few times lately. Imagine the comments if that happens!

Erwin Rommel was a SHA fan. That DVB Montgomery only beat him by watching the Vile and learning how to cheat.

Take away the six points the corrupt FA and referees gave the DVB for playing us and they wouldn't have even made the playoffs.

Good times. Seems crazy to put Villa at opposite ends but that's small time small heath for you. And this also proves that their favourite little ditty "shit on the villa" was actually stolen from us. We sang it to them first. (as in shit on the city) obvs.

Agreed, that's classless and offensive even for them. They should stick to making up masturbatory rhymes for whoever their manager is in any given month.

We are bigger because we carry the name of the city. Fact!
We are bigger because we have an anthem. Fact!
We are bigger because we control all the pubs in town. Those we can find anyway.
We are bigger because we won a game because we scored a goal direct from a throw in. First team to do so, fact!.
We are bigger because our ground is the Old Trafford of the Midlands. (Karen Brady said so, fact!)
We are bigger because we had a BCFC watch which was twice as expensive as the same without BCFC on it.
We are bigger because we have the most recognizable badge in world football and which shows how important we are.
We are bigger because our mascot has more connection with a cartoon than it does with a football club.
We are bigger because we have had owners from a wide range of backgrounds, Scrap Metal Merchant, Hairdresser, Porn barons and Overseas covert Financial Operations. We nearly had a Scaffolding company as well.
-
One of our owners had a helicopter, but he didn't like to talk about it.

Small Heath is the only known football ground to be recorded in the London Gazette of as the crime scene when a female SHA fan was gang raped by a group of male SHA fans on the Tilton Rd terraces. Beat that you Vile nancy boys.

I thought it was a crime scene every other Saturday at kick off time
-
One of our owners had a helicopter, but he didn't like to talk about it.
I don't know about him talking about the helicopter but I saw enough photos of him standing in front of it over the years. I reckon every Christmas card he sent every year had a picture of that helicopter on with him standing in front of it.

I was (correctly) pulled up on the assumption that we had both ends a few years ago by a fellow poster.
I thought we were given the Tilton and the Railway end for the first few years after promotion in 1975. IN reality the Railway end was mixed, which would be hard to believe these days.
I first remember hearing Shit on the City before the away game in 1977. An evening of utter carnage.

There was less segregation then and you could pay cash on the gate which lead to more trouble inside the ground. It was horrible at times. 2002/03 was toxic but at least you knew you were next to a Villa fan, back then you really couldn’t tell for certain.

The noses were not impressed with the positive coverage we got on SKY compared to them when we were in the Championship. They didn't like how often our games were shown live and they didn't like the respect most commentators gave to us.

I have heard Prince William has told the FA whoever wins the cup today they can’t have it it will be awarded to the Vile instead. Spawny Bastard’s.

I was in the upper Doug for the 3/3/2003 and didn't actually witness any trouble that I can recall but the atmosphere was toxic. I think things calmed down a bit after those two games. The 2-2 Stern John in the last minute game, our 2-1 home defeat in 2004 and the Gary Cahill game were all lunchtime kick offs if I remember correctly.

The seals would never have won the league if it hadn’t been for Batson giving it to them on a plate.

Then there was this little gem after the semi final at the Borethawns
I'm still disgusted about that last night. For that fucking vile bunch of cheating divers, whingers and pansies to jammy that win was a travesty. A diving cheat shit of a captain with a face you'd love to smack; a fucking scumbag assistant; even bigger fucking scumbag as manager; owners who've got the EFL wrapped round their 12 fingers; and vile fans who hounded one of the nicest guys in football out and yet pathetically worship a manager whose only tactic is to con and cheat like he did at smallsall and Brentford.
The Baggies can hold their heads high this morning. They were brilliant. To a man, Midlands football is United in their admiration this morning. And we'll be United in roaring on whoever these tossers play at Wembley. Blues, baggies and Wolves together as one. #KRO #BOINGBOING #WOLVESAYWE #SOTV

Back in the 70s the Blues would have the Witton end holding 10,000-12,000. Similarly we would have well over 10k at the Sty. The potential numbers of those who wanted to be involved in trouble was on a different scale.
I think it became more toxic in 2002 though. 15 years without a derby plus increased media focus on football and the rise of online sites (Including hooligan forums) meant the fixture became truly nasty.

Well they've already taken Neil Cutler, Harrison, a number of our other academy staff, Louie Barry via Barcelona (as if nobody'd thought that out in advance, yeah right), they're sniffing around Edwards plus Malcolm and Richards from the youth set up. They may as well take Dowling, sell the rest of Bodytw@t Heath off, relocate their training ground to some place in Walsall and rename themselves Aston Albion. Bunch of dicks, how I despise them. Can't believe none of you lot checked to see how I was doing following their failure to get relegated either. SOTV.

I like the idea that we "stole" their staff, as if Smith and Terry drove up in a transit and kidnapped them at knife point.

As the years pass they fall further and further behind us.
So their hatred of us gets worse and reasons become more bizarre.

Why don’t Albion and Blues just merge? They’re cut from the same cloth and share the same beliefs, namely a hatred of us. You never know, a combined fan base might fill one of their grounds...when they’re playing us, of course. Sad acts.

So I look forward to the welcome they give him when he inevitably rocks up as Albion manager at some point. To be fair I know they have never hounded a manager out. I can still recall the support and utmost respect they gave to the appointment and reign of Bobby Gould.
-
Albion used to have a training ground in Spring Lane just off Spon Lane in Smerrick, it butted up to the M5, you could see it. I didn't know they'd moved.
-
I couldn't tell you the name of Albion's training ground or where it is.
Sandwell Park?
I think it's on Walsall Road up by the Bell. I once interviewed their assistant manager there.
I had to go there in Jan to watch my Godson reffing, it was Albion under something or other agin West Ham. It was on some pitches away from the main complex. There was no hard path up to the pitches or any hard standing around them, after weeks of poor weather it was a quagmire and a real effort to get up the hill to pitchside. Think of Glastonbury at it's very worst. The families of all the players had to negotiate this just to watch their kids play. Lord alone knows how they get away with it, particulary with reference to the DDA regulations.

I was instructed by wifey once to bring pasties home from Becketts Farm as you do. I was Kings Norton way so sat nav took me left at the Man in the Moon and there it was: a sign with a big pair of knackers on it announcing ‘B’lose training ground’. I jumped like when someone puts a screaming clown on a clip of puppies playing. I always thought they trained at a rugby club by the airport.

It is indeed. I know it’s not all true but I do like to wind them up by pointing out their ground is in Birmingham and they train in Walsall.

Wasthills. They moved from Elmdon when the porn
Dwarf took over I think.

We crushed so many hopes and dreams on the final day of the season. Albion fans thinking they’d watch us go by as they entered the PL and we the Championship. Wolves from their lofty pedestal and all that mind the gap bollocks. Nose fans because they have nothing else but our misery to focus on. Coventry fans thinking they’d be on a level playing field with us next season. Leeds fans and all their bitterness towards us, all of a sudden bigger than us after finally getting back up after a 100 years. All of the “you’re doing a Fulham” believers for us not doing a Fulham. The list is endless.

I've been there a few times to watch Cam play for the U-whatevers. It's a bit basic to be polite.

...could I add Bristol City? They seem to have adopted us as serious rivals. You’d be forgiven for thinking they get on better with Bristol Rovers than us.

Their obsession with our finances is hilarious. There's a 60 page thread on Championship FFP (mainly Villa) and another 16 page thread on Villa's FFP alone. One poster on OTIB (Mr. Popodopolous) appears to have spent dozens of hours analysing our finances trying to find the "smoking gun". Needless to say they weren't best pleased when we stayed up to "escape" justice. Guess we're just spawny.
-
None of these clubs seem to realise that everything they say about us just makes us bigger
-
Bristol City know they'll never get out of that division and so it seems they want everyone else to start on at least -12pts to give them a few weeks top of the table. Remember how giddy they were when they played us and were above us in the play offs?
-
I think they can get to PL albeit they are taking a patient approach. Historically they've underachieved but now seems to be a fairly well-run club with plans for the future and Bristol is a city on the up. A good friend's a ST holder so hope they do.
-
Bristol's a great city. I quite like the fact that their football clubs are perenially rubbish. It adds an element of cool about the place.

Beating them (without Grealish even playing) was all in all a pretty good day.

Best thing about going to Ashton Gate was North Street, pubs are fantastic.

Each time I went I was in The Rising Sun which is home fans only. This involved a smuggling out of a ST but was sound once in. I also liked the alcohol concessions outside the away end at HT. My main gripe with Bristol was that taxis seemed pretty expensive by UK standards.

My play off final viewing as been spoiled because that spawny vile bastard Bacon Face is on the panel of sky’s play off final coverage. JUST because he used to manage Brentford. Meeeja bias.

Bristol was great for a weekend. Back in my single days Mauratinias was a good bar/club to frequent. We then spent some time in Plymouth which was also a good place if you were single and ready to mingle.

Plymouth is the Coventry of the south

I think he was mocking their arguments "Vile aren't a big club, I just spend my every waking hour thinking about them".
Yep!...they seem to have gone a little quiet now....skint pricks 8)
-
Vile are so spawny, now Brentford have lost they'll get all their transfer targets for half price. Bastards.

A few days back Small Heath made a statement that they were going to invest significant transfer funds this summer. But they also threw in a get out of jail free card by saying they were also going to utilise the loan and free transfer market. I suspect they will bring in more loans and free transfers than multi million pound signings.
-
Why should da Vile have all the money?
-
I always refer back to the summer of 2018. Stoney Broke Tony Bloke was taking them to oblivion and it was simply delicious. Not paying wages, flogging off car parks to pay the leccy bills, a massive FFP hit around the corner, and a dodgy Chinese owner who would only ever sell to another dodgy Chinese owner, because that's what we'd been told to expect. They were on a perfect trajectory to "do a Pompey" and with any luck, eff off down into the non-leagues.
So what happened? There was no selling to any other dodgy Chinese owners. Instead, out of nowhere came two knights in shining armour and within a year they were in the promised land. Even that process fell kindly for them. Albion were a better side than them but lost all their strikers when they met in the playoffs. Of course, vile won the penalty shootout, I'd have expected nothing less. But it was ok, Leeds were an even better side who would muller them in the final after winning at perennial bottlers Derby. Who'd have thought Leeds would press the self destruct button in that second leg, thereby effectively handing vile a bye to the premier league?
And now of course, we had the Sheffield United non-goal.
I'd say that's a pretty lucky two years. Any chance we might escape our 10 year predicament in such a manner? I somehow have my doubts, because you just don't get luck like that do you?
And now on Heroes and Villains another chance to see...

It never gets boring reading that. I bet the noses can quote it from memory word for word.

The only problem i have with that is the idea that West Brom were the better side. We were the form side in English football for the final quarter of the season, no one in that league was better than us by the time we got to the playoffs.

Greasy nominated for Young Player of the Year, Bellingham not on the list! Vile haven't even retired Diving Jack's shirt he must be rubbish! Bloody biased media! 😡😡😡😡

Spawney DVBs on the latest Barclays Bank advert. Barclays marketing department must be full of DVBs

I’ll never forget the semi final of 1994. The bastards should’ve been beaten 3-0 in the first leg then spawn a last minute goal to give them a chance. 2nd leg. Aussie wanker keeper should’ve been sent off. Stays on. They spawn their way to an 88th minute aggregate equaliser. Then tranmere hit the bar in injury time. Then the cnuts miss two penalties. All the tranmere bloke has to do is score and the Aussie wanker who shouldn’t have been on the pitch saves another one to put them through. Spawny vile bastards.
(Actually when you put it like that)!

Bloody ace games.

The noses have a rather creepy romance with Smethwick when it comes to their mutual hatred of us. One other thing they have in common is that they don't necessarily let the truth get in the way of a good story.

Both my neighbours are stripeyfilth - the one keeps saying “I’m glad you stayed up so we can play you” when the absolute hatred is boiling through his stone cross eyes! My two year olds villa football they keeps going over his fence is the final nail!!

Had similar when I was younger. Every time we kicked a Villa football over into the garden of our stripey neighbour, we'd go to ask for it back and he'd say, "oh, but I think there's some shit on it," and point at the Villa badge. Every single time.
-
I would love anyone to study the match data/review the Villa-Albion games and explain why WBA were the better team.
To say they were the second top-scorers that season, I couldn't believe they were so negative. When Conor scored his goal, they had ten men back in their own area!
Still, with a 'nose in charge of the team, what do you expect?

As was said at the time, they were desperately defending a one-goal lead going into the last 165 minutes.

The noses are convinced the world is full of DVB's. Although the period where we had the future King, the governor of the bank of England and the Prime Minister all on our side was quite impressive. The noses are probably convinced that the Sheffield United 'ghost goal' was something to do with Tom Hanks and some Da Vinci Code conspiracy.

That's exactly what those within the city of Manchester used to trade off.

Tom hanks, another dvb who only beat the Germans in saving private Ryan because he was a spawny villa bastard. But they probably think da Vinci is s brand of foreign beer

Typical Vile tactic to allow a thread to reach 17 pages with no mention of the world's first oil painting of a football match that shows 12 DVBs playing the Mackems. They have been cheating since the beginning of time.

And Woolwich Arsenal. All the proper, honest teams only got to play the ordinary Arse.

There’s a thread on West Brom forum ( seals watch - not sure what that means ) and there’s some A grade bitterness going over the Shakespeare signing.
It’s comical fans have digs at others who dare

Seals has been their longstanding nickname for us. I think they find it amusing that we flap like seals at the first sign of trouble. Not that they would ever do such things. They know who they are.

It's because of the old Trinity Road stand, where apparently we used to clap a lot. That's a stand that was demolished in the last century and we're the ones obsessed with history.

I thought they played well in the second leg and we really struggled to impose ourselves that night so was nerve jangling until the penalties when they just had defenders taking them.
First leg though I agree their tactics were odd. Went 1 up and had Rodriguez, Gayle and Phillips all on the pitch so loads of pace for counter attacks yet they barely left the 18 yard box and eventually we got back into things.

Came across this on YT the other day:
Some cracking footage of SHA losing to Kiddy in the FA cup. Tom Ross looking exactly the same as he does now. Barry Fry signing 200 players in a week.
As bad as they are now they were proper s*** in those days and it really was a Sty back then. I think that was the season we played them in the league cup.
-
Barry Fry was the perfect manager for Small Heath. Gobby, uncouth and deluded. The Poundland version of Harry Redknapp. Fry reckoned he pissed on all four corners of the pitch to get rid of the gypsy curse. I reckon he was just too fat and lazy to walk inside to the bogs.

He definitely did it though as it got filmed for that comedy documentary they did about that lot in the early mid 90s.

I've always said that documentary must have been done by a Villa fan, it's such a great pisstake out of them. I'm pretty sure it started with the narrator saying something like "Birmingham City are a professional football club, but not a very successful one." The youtube video seems to miss out the beginning of it.

Sadly no piss take of ours can truly match what they have done to themselves over the years. Their buy a player fundraiser, relegated by their own player, losing a cup tie at home to a non league side (twice), turning a winning Wembley final into a story about a Villa because of one player/twat in a T-shirt, getting relegated about five minutes after their only major trophy win...
-
You've missed out their official calendar printed with our honours on them and them having to release an official club statement saying they had never won the European Cup Damo 😀
I liked Barry Fry. You could tell he loves football and we probably wouldn't get away with pissing all over their pitch.

During that video Sullivan stated his desire for a 60,000 seater stadium and to make Birmingham City the Manchester United of the Midlands. Any chance of a progress report?

I am so pleased that the ‘noses have evolved sufficiently to be able to toil away ceaselessly in Solihull (Hall Green to the rest of us) to be able to produce the Range Rovers that we, as their betters, use to allow the butler to pop out to Waitrose’s. Keep up the good work plebs.
-
Re the Range Rover jibes i remember in one of those rivals books that Blues fans commented on the quality of the cars coming in through the North Stand car park on match day compared to the types of cars seen around St Andrews. Now when you think the average fan parks outside the ground in car parks or streets they are clearly referencing vehicles owned by the club officials, players or VIPs usually. More missing the point and clutching at straws from our unwashed cousins.

Cousins? Bollocks to that.

2 things i get from that

Secondly - and i am ashamed to say this - did not realise how doable Miss Brady was in those days

Thank you Risso for having the kindness to have pointed out this grammatical error committed by my secretary. In the spirit of forgiveness and in order to create a work opportunity for anyone unfortunate to have lost their job due to Covid I have sacked them.

Came across this on YT the other day:
Some cracking footage of SHA losing to Kiddy in the FA cup. Tom Ross looking exactly the same as he does now. Barry Fry signing 200 players in a week.
As bad as they are now they were proper s*** in those days and it really was a Sty back then. I think that was the season we played them in the league cup.
2 things i get from that
Firstly i actually thought half way through it was a spoof like Mike Bassett / The Office and fully expected FRy or the Porno Dwarf to look at camera ala David Brent
Secondly - and i am ashamed to say this - did not realise how doable Miss Brady was in those days
If only she’d have known, she could have joined all the women waiting patiently in line to be “done” by you! She doesn’t know what she missed.

Jesus Hookey, that's a bannable offence surely?

The cure for having urges like that is to be injected with bleach.

Whatever kind of depraved pornography does one have to search for to come across such utter filth?

The Holstein Herd Book of Working Bulls is pretty explicit according to my son. He found one on a family camping holiday in Denmark. Found discarded in a hedge he told me.

Watched a bit of that, forgot what a shithole that place is.

Ignorance abhors a vacuum. The Ss are spontanously generated in the linguistically challenged (see Government, present) to supplement the truncated words that end with a G. And partially to purge the same group's use of the aberrant apostrophe. Plum's for sale. Room's to let. And so forth.

There’s a table been produced in the Times today that shows the points and positions teams would’ve finished on without VAR having been introduced. We would have had two extra points and finished on 37 but still 17th. Yes we are spawny bastards. The funniest one is Wolves who would have finished fourth apparently.
-
During that video Sullivan stated his desire for a 60,000 seater stadium and to make Birmingham City the Manchester United of the Midlands. Any chance of a progress report?
That bastard Vile biased council refused to pay for it so the lovely cuddly pornographers & Kaz sold the club to become a hairdressing salon & relocated the begging bowl down London way....
-
In hindsight we should probably be kinder to David Sullivan, the Gold brothers and Kaz. As soon as they realised Birmingham council weren't going to build them a 250,000 seater stadium at the NEC they couldn't wait to move to a nice new council house in London even though they knew they were stitching up Small heath by leaving them in the control of the less than capable Edward Scissorhands, the demon barber of Hong Kong.
-
Spawny ex Vile bastard Albrighton bounced off his shoulder and went in against us in yesterday’s friendly. Typical always happens to them.
-
Shit Hause's red card against Olbiyun didn't even get reviewed by VAR. Then there's two ex-Vilers on MOTD2 supporting the ref's decision. >:(
-
I loved Dion and Micah on MOTD tonight.
If you were an Albion fan, what a bbc fix.
As we’re not, stitch that! 👍🥅🥅🥅

Watkins's goal getting disallowed by VAR when it doesn't matter anyway.
No doubt Stockley Park will even things up in the next game by giving the DVBs another pen or by sending another opposition player off for a perfectly good challenge again.

Over on Small Time Alliance, Livermore’s foul wasn’t even a yellow.
I think nurse is bringing the tablets round the ward as we speak.

That place genuinely has a thread for all of our matches. Incredible.
I can honestly say I'd struggle to remember what division they're in, or any of their players with the exception of Hogan and that little mutant Craig Gardner and his brother.

They're was talk of Pulis taking him to Wednesday as coach.

Utter despair on SHA! Saying how far we're ahead of them now. They need to look over their shoulder: only six points above the drop zone....wouldn't that be great them getting relegated!
-
Don’t think we’ll see too much of SHA for quite a while now. Can’t see them getting promoted or us going down any time soon.

If only we hadn't been bought as a vanity project for two billionaires.

It's so weird. I've never wished for Blues or Albion or the Wovvles to go out of business, but they say it regularly. It's deranged.

Queen recorded a song with the lyrics "I can't live with you but I can't live without you". We are now to Small Heath like an ex girlfriend they don't want to get back together with but they just can't live without us either. I suspect that on a daily basis they think about us more than we think about ourselves.

Spot on

I feel for them, I know a few decent ones and but for the grace of God and all that. I actually thought they'd do alright this season, but they've done their Bellingham money and gone firmly sideways, and give it 18 months and they'll be down again with half a stadium and serious problems.
Oh well, at least with us back in Europe they'll have more games to watch on the telly.

Never, ever let it be forgotten that when he did it he was cheered off the pitch and within a week the narrative had gone from "Lock him up" to "He was out of order but..." to "Good for him. Grealish had it coming". If he was to walk into any pub full of that lot now there'd be more drinks offered to him than abuse.

They're my second team, based on losing a great Wolves supporting mate in the summer. Our friendship was so strong despite not seeing each other for more than 30 years. It's a Brummie thing. Never had a bad word to say against the Villa. I miss him greatly. Unbelievable fella. Heart of old gold.
Saying that, whenever I look on MM there's a twat on there, 'Barnet Wolf' who is the saddest knobhead I've ever seen on a football forum. I just have to remind myself every time the twat posts, not all Dingles are like him. They've got their own problems, it's football but that twat is an embarrassment to true football supporters.. even Plastic Reds.

And now the spawny bastards have spoiled Christmas.

I have to admit I had a quick look on their vile page yesterday. Some of them really are moronic. Apparently we are jammy vile bastards because we went down to ten men and still come up smelling of roses. The fact that the boys earned it with a brilliant ten man performance was totally lost on the thick bitter bastards.
-
The posts where they talk about us going down to 10 men and then moan about how lucky we are, are the best!
I never realised there were so many villages around Bordesley who could provide that many idiots!
-
I do enjoy reading their meltdowns. You have the occasional person trying to talk some sense into them, but the majority of their opinions really are hilarious.
The thought of the rage spread across the face of the toothless simpleton spewing utter nonsense about us, really makes me feel at peace.
-
Go and have butchers on Mongolian mix. They are raging.
-
Haha what's wrong with these people! I wouldn't dream of watching one of their games then go onto the Internet raging about it.
-
I've just had a look , but rather than our extensive match thread , had a look at the "Snow watch thread." It's pretty interesting reading . The "died in the wool Brummies" who all live within smelling distance of the shit holes in Bordesley Green & Small Heath have been posting about snow this morning in Harborne, Staffordshire, Worcestershire, Stourbridge and Redditch.
-
I'd like a bottle of Salty Wolves Tears please.
Tsh, Dingles eh?
-
It’s a great read. They’re foaming at the mouth over there, although that’s probably something to do with the Gornal water.
-
I don't like any of our neighbours at all, but I really struggle to see how you can get THAT worked up about us. They're all absolutely obsessed with Jack, which I get is a result of a huge amount of jealousy that we've got somebody that good, but they must watch every moment of every game we play.
-
If you ever want to win a villa quiz make sure you some blues and baggies on your side
-
I’m fascinated just how much hatred can be carved from what boils down to jealousy, I really am. Every argument they have with JG or us in general has either no basis, context or point. Best of all, most of them will be grown adults, many of them parents, acting like this. Bless their hearts.

I suppose we all hated Trevor Francis back in the day, but even then we had a better player in Brian Little.

Just took a look at one of the Wolves Forums. Just comical. These are genuine comments tonight:
“Villa can’t beat Chelsea reserves. Meanwhile we beat the first team .
Still can’t believe that goal stood. What a bunch of cheats villa are . It’s disgusting”
“ Don't get how vile fans can defend their team cheating like that. I'd like to think we wouldn't put up with that from our own”
“ Beat us to a lapse in concentration and a free kick awarded to villa when they fouled a wolves player
that foul, and Mings foul on podence has gained them 3 points .
They are cheats . End of. And I hope someone snaps grealish leg in 3. Don’t want that cheat anywhere near the England side let alone the wolves side”
Funny as.
-
KUMB, the West Ham forum is quite funny too. Chuck in MolMix and SHA and it appears VDS is spreading like wildfire.
-
I don't get why Wolves are suddenly so obsessed about us. I've always viewed them as the equivalent of the weird Uncle who lives in a village miles from nowhere and you only see once a decade. They're one step up from irrelevant.
-
They all had their years to laugh at our decline and their 15 minutes of being a little ahead of us, or that chance to gloat. Shit we nearly closed shop altogether. But once we were taken over, and that takeover was legitimate in its potential scale and scope every single one of them deep down knew eventually we would be back.
They mock what they all aspire to be, they fear most what they know to be the truth.
-
MolMix meltdown
Interesting looking back at that - Villa just incite that kind of thing. Not just the diving, but I think they aim to provoke and wind up the opposition in any way possible. Could a team just walk off in protest at yet another Greasy dive? I don't know why Chelsea didn't tonight, they were robbed by dirty Grealish.
It's about time the media figured out there's something wrong when Villa are getting a free kick every 3 minutes, 75% of which they have cheated for.
On that Leeds incident, you can be sure Smith would not have done what Bielsa did and give a goal. Was Kodja actually even injured or just faking after a dive which is what Villa do all the time? It's not Dirty Leeds any more. It's Dirty Dean's Villa
That's in response to the Elland Road incident being posted in tonight's games thread.
Wow.
-
Do any of them mention the dive by Silva the other night? Or the fact that only Wolves and Man U have had players booked for diving this season?
-
Chatting to a family member today moaning about Kane’s dive yesterday and this cheating spoiling football. I mentioned the Silva one and he said it was a foul and should have been a penalty. There you go.
-
I love being hated. I want us to be the most hated football club in the world. Nobody hates unsuccessful teams.

All this bollocks from the poor relations is just grist to the mill. We weren't 'spawny' when we were shite for ten years. The more tantrums they throw the better for us.

The Senior Member bit is correct.

I shouldn’t look, but that site is hilarious. They are so deluded, it’s page after page and mainly about ‘Greasy’. They want to see his legs broke, they even at one point think the FA need to have an inquiry into our games regarding the cheating Smith has us doing.
-
Chelseas goal today should be a goal every day of every week, a hand being off side should never be off side.
I just hope that the guys screaming for Ollies 'goals' against West Ham and West Brom to be dissalowed are as vocal today as they were then.
-
Yet a look on the Chelsea thread "the shed" is relatively balanced. Of course there's a few Jack haters but there's plenty of recognition for his and the teams abilities. They've no real reason to hate us or obsess over us. The braindead morons on our rivals forums seem incapable of rationality when talking about "the vile" Fuck em all I say. It's really irrelevant what they think.
-
I love being hated. I want us to be the most hated football club in the world. Nobody hates unsuccessful teams.
Unsuccesful teams get patronized by the media and called plucky and courageous. You're right I want us to be the type of vehemently disliked by all which means we have been incredibly successful. Versus the type of dislike that Millwall get high on.

Guys, please take a look at the 'Vile Thread' on SHA. Some of the vitriol directed our way by the inbreds is laughable, particularly now Blose have slipped into relegation places. They've had a complete meltdown over the 2 VAR decisions that went in our favour at Southampton. When crowds return and the fans get on our players backs we'll return to relegation material.
Probably the best is "I'd sacrifice a play-off spot for Blose to see the Vile get relegated" !
The bitterness has ramped up several notches this season, oh, and by the way, we shouldn't be in the Premier League after the luck with 'that' goal chalked off through a mishap with goal line technology! They hate us even more - spawny vile bastards aren't we?

They are in the bottom three of the Championship, have a manager who plays dire defensive football (unsuccessfully) and their ground is falling apart. Add to that their ownership structure and finances are what could be deemed 'sketchy' and still they seem more interested in us.

You can almost hear the collective sound of wrists being slashed on the SHA Forum! All this obsession about the Vile is not good for their mental health!

I don't usually comment on them they are such an irrelevance. They have gone from being the second city's second team to the second city's embarrassment.
When I think about it I feel a little cheated. Most big city clubs have real rivalry.
Celtic and Rangers, Liverpool and Everton, The Manchester clubs, we have Small Heath!

I don't understand the 'gone from ' bit, they've been an embarrassment since I started to follow football, which was about the time they lost at home to Altrincham, and barring their 'golden years ' under Bruce and McLeish when they were at best a dogged outfit, they've been that ever since.

Kawanka reckons they are outplaying teams week in week out but are being punished for individual errors.
Surely if you are making individual errors and the opposition aren't then they are clearly out playing you.
-
I’ve said before but Villa fans and blues fans have one big thing in common. We both like to talk about Aston Villa.
-
It absolutely kills them that we were on the brink of disaster after the Playoffs defeat. Everything generations of family’s had dreamt about was going happen. The Vile were going out of business.....
Then one of their inbreds attacks Jack & from that moment on we’re on different trajectories. Whilst they hero worship a knobhead for punching an opponent’s player, we hero worship a genius footballer who almost single handedly drags his club out of a 10 year slump.
You get in life what you deserve....

I remember him saying something after we played West Ham in MON’s first season. We’d been on a bad run and he said something along the lines of “they haven’t won for ‘x’ number of games, they’ve got nothing to play for and they get 41,000. We can’t compete with that”. Purely from memory so don’t dig me out if I’ve got it wrong.

our worst team in living memory and they still couldn't beat us - always in our shadow

Clicked on this and went a bit cold ! Tim nice but dim at the helm
I can't remember seeing more police at Villa Park than I did that night. We were sent into the car park as I recall.

In these troubled times we should try to have some empathy for the less fortunate.
Remember how as Villa fans we suffered from the start of the McLeish era to the end of Bruce. The almost relentless misery and countless hammerings. Managers that were dour, depressing, dismal and dim. Some of the worst players in our history, many with awful attitudes and work ethic, many others utterly forgettable.
Remember all of that, and then consider, that if that exact series of events played out for Birmingham City, it would actually be considered their Golden Age.
They can only dream of multiple consecutive seasons in the Premier League escaping relegation, an FA Cup Final appearance and a narrow Championship play-off defeat. One of their greatest ever strikers, and the emergence of a homegrown, world-class player.
That would be heaven to them. Those would be the stories they'd tell their grandchildren.
So, have some pity for them and their wretched lot in life.

It's embarrassing that their club name includes that of the country's second biggest city.
*first. The City of London has a population of about 10,000.

"First biggest"? BE will be along in a second.

The neighbours either side of where i live are noses ,the type who hate the Villa more than they love Small Heath .Last season when it looked like we were going down i would see them every day in their horrible blues tops and always wanting a chat about how the Villa were going even though they stayed up by the skin of their teeth .This season guess what,i hardly ever see them and they sure do not want to talk about football They have always been in our shadow and it kills them

This may be true, but ‘Villa don’t drink in town’. It’s the important things.

I think one of the best quotes was from David Sullivan
It was so good I can’t even remember it
But it was something about us always been far better than they ever have been
Wasn’t it something about never being able to compete with us?

That's a spoof article surely? It claims they're was "a moment of quality from Rudy Gestede"!!!
-
Gestede was fine, if you put a decent cross in front of him.
Sadly, he didn't offer much else.
-
Gestede was the ultimate example of a Villa player who was better when he didn't play. When he was out, it was all "Gestede would have made a difference" etc, and when he did play, he didn't do much. Wesley could well be catching him up on those stakes though.
-
£400m and not in debt how can that be the horrible, spawny vile bastards. God I detest them more than any think.
-
Gestede looked like a player who took up football around the age of 20. He had no control of a football whatsoever. Dreadful.
-
Blose now second from bottom! Good to see that pile of shite sinking to the bottom..... relegation is looking probable.

Interesting article on our neighbors today

Hold the back page! He could pull that article out every couple of months and date it any time in the past, or future 100 years. 'Blues are shit, their fans aren't interested and they will be in a relegation fight'
-
Only I don't remember Birmingham planning to shut down their youth academy before. Which is ironic considering how much they got for Bellingham. They also developed Jack Butland, Nathan Redmond, Demarai Gray, Joe Lolley and Andy Johnson. All of which at some point had a fair amount of market value. They've got 2-3 good prospects right now, with Liverpool signing up the most promising one. Their fans must be questioning the timing of the decision because it seemed like it was just starting to make some real ground. Their loss maybe to our benefit though, just to further rub salt in the wounds.

Imagine setting up a football club, only for it to be defined by a completely different one.
Apart from: having a big white bib down the middle in the 70's, that 'KRO' song, Trevor Francis and a couple league cups, they're not even a proper definitive club, not a sausage, rather just the Anti Villa FC. Sad.

Latest from Small Heath Alliance Forum: Apparently Villa faked the Covid outbreak at BMH, so we could rest players in a busy schedule. Laughable from the desperate obsessed muppets!

I can't speak about the south, but you're definitely right on the first part. At primary school (in Lichfield) there wasn't a single Bluenose at the school. It was probably 60% Villa, 30% Liverpool, 10% other. In our half of the year at secondary school - so about 100 kids - there was one Blues fan, and a couple of West Brom supporters. The rest (of the ones who supported local clubs) were Villa.
-
Villa dominate most places in the city and the environs. They have a corridor of support along the A45. Despite the myth making, they have utterly tinpot, cotton mill Lancashire shit hole town levels of support.

Broadly speaking North Birmingham is more Villa and South Birmingham is more Blues. But there's not many places where it overwhelming either way. For example theres Villa enclaves in Chelmsley and Blues enclaves in Kingstanding. Lichfield probably more Villa than Blues.Tamworth pretty evenly split and on derby days the pubs are divided into Villa pubs or Blues pubs.In the south Redditch I'd say slightly more Blues Bromsgrove more Villa. My own neck of the woods is Nechells where again it's 50/50 but on match days you have Villa pubs but on their matchday no Blues pubs. These are just my own experiences living and working in and around Brum most of my life.
-
I my early years, I remember fanship being much more area-specific. I get the impression that the lines have blurred over the last 20-30 years.
-
When I was growing up in Smethwick in the 1950's it was Villa/Albion. I only realised the Blues rivalry when I started to go to games.

Because the best way of succeeding in the Premier League is to play half a dozen games in two weeks.

Funnily enough it's not until I moved to Worcestershire that I started seeing Blues fans in the wild. I lived in the Midlands proper for thirty years and can count on the fingers of one hand the number I saw out and about.

You must be mistaken, they are only native in Birmingham.
-
Growing up in Worcester I never met any Blues fans. Couple of Wolves and Baggies and some Villa. A lot of Liverpool though. I remember being surprised when I came back from uni in the early 90s how many Villa shirts were round town. But of course we were doing better then.
-
I’ve lived in their ‘heartlands’ pretty much since moving from Erdington as a kid, and it’s a total myth, they’re just areas where they have supporters, there’s always as many or more Villa there.
If you go anywhere north of the city they’re as rare as rocking horse shit.

And China presumably? I definitely remember a few years back them telling us they were going to be the biggest club in China...
-
In terms of who actually has the most support, the gates speak for themselves. I agree that there used to be a North/South divide but when I visit Longbridge, Kings Norton, etc now its mostly Villa.
-
Sherlock St is a Blues stronghold.
-
My missus was grew up in Edgbaston and Handsworth and had never knowingly met a Bluenose til I brought her to Chelmsley when she was about 18.
I’m not proud of myself for doing that to her.
-
I went to school in Bournville - plenty of noses around there, and shit holes like Weoley Castle and Northfield
-
I’ll say this though, whenever they do congregate into a larger group they quickly turn very brave and malicious towards any Villa fans.

This!
I lived and went to school in South Birmingham and have worked the majority of my adult life in South Birmingham and Redditch and noses have always been a rarity. I was more likely to see plastic mancs or scousers than noses. Yes you'll see the odd nose but outnumbering the mighty Villa, never!
The weirdest group of noses I ever met lived and worked in Bromsgrove. I know Bromsgrove is mainly Villa but this group were off the chart; totally obsessed with Peter Enkleman.

Can we save talking about That Lot for the That Lot thread? Thank you.

Agreed. Back on topic. Fcukin Villa got the government, FA, William everyone in their pocket. Even got a mid season break while everyone else has to carry on playing.......and you think I’m joking?

I said at the time when they reopened they were the only team team to have everyone up and ready to play ,with Smiths record of cheating it seems obvious what went on .He saw the benefit of having a break did to keep them up whats the chances that Vile are the first team to abuse the new concussion ruling in some way .

Don’t forget when lockdown 1 started, McGinn; who had been their main man and not St Jack, wasn’t due to play again until this season.
Cue three month break, McGinn recovers, Vile survive on top of Hawkeyegate
It’s like an episode of 24

I live in Redditch. In absolutely no way is this ‘blue nose land’. There’s a lot of them by comparison but I’d say more Villa.

I lived in Redditch in 91-92. I always felt there was slightly more of a Nose presence than Villa back then - and this is in the days before they started peddling their “All Blues live in Brum” bullshit which they cling on to desperately these days. They had no problem with it in those days. 😙

I lived in Moseley a few years back. Nobody seemed to care about football but the tattoos were interesting.

Worked south Birmingham for Birmingham housing department since 1975 and they never outnumbered us,we all drank in the old Travellers Rest Northfield, but as we went to same schools and families knew each other , we sometimes met up after derby game but apart from one Blue nose who was soon sorted out by his mates, never had any problem, I would now say south Birmingham is now 100% blue's as Villa have moved to strafford and worcester

yes that the way I see them

Grew up in Lichfield and it was majority Villa - the whole school got a talking to from the headmaster when there was prolonged Villa chanting (we called it a riot ;D ) one breaktime in our league winning season. Lived in London for years but live in Balsall Common now - know a few Blues and Cov fans.

Been in Lichfield over 60 years. In that time it’s always been solid Villa. Very, very small percentage of Blues. Wolves were probably second in terms of numbers, until the Sky generation came along. Even now, I’d say there’s more Villa than the rest put together.

The difference between us is that we support our team, they support whoever is playing us
You cant really have a football chat with any of them as they go off at tangents.
