Take a look at Peter Whittingham. Ideal player to come in next season.

General, would you then also sanction the return of Vassell, Allback, Alan Thompson and Lee Hendrie?

Thanks

General,

Do you ever watch any non-Villa football games? If so, what was your favourite one from this season?

Hello General

I don't know if this is the right place to bring this up so I apologise in advance if it isn't. I was wondering if the history section official site could be sorted as it seems to have disappeared.

http://www.avfc.co.uk/page/VillaLegendsDetails/0,,10265~1131128,00.html

That is a link to our official website, with the player profile of Paul McGrath, and from it on the left you can access Timeline, Villa legeneds etc. everything that was classed as history. By looking at it it seems that this is now classed under the "mobile" section but this obviously isn't the case. The only way I can find to access this is by getting to the section I want via google. If I just go onto avfc.co.uk then I can't find it anywhere?

Just seeing the above from Markus has prompted a question.

How closely does the club work with the Villa All Stars?  They sent a team down on Saturday to my local club in Daventry.  Would be interested to know more of how the club (if at all) works with these.

We could swap him for Downing.

I wouldn't call Downing a midfield General.

Too lightweight.

General,

            Now that Randy has mooted a 50 000 capacity ground in the not-too distant future its obvious that some sort of research must have been done in terms of the viability of filling it.

            At the moment there is a slight downturn in Premiership attendances, including us, and that is a lot to do  with disappointing home results, more games in Cups which make some opt to miss the odd home game here and there, and of course cost.

            What strategy does the club have in terms of making us go from a side watched by 38/39 000 to a side watched by around 50 000? Traditionally we haven't hit those figures that often, even though the support may be there. Is the club putting its faith in success on the pitch translating to bums on seats? Is there a wider reaching proposal on how to fill the seats?

General, what's the answer for Villa in the future to  Big clubs taking top players from us.

Is there one or will we remain a feeder club to the clubs with more wealth.

General,

Have you ever fed a troll. And, if so, would you likely do it again?

General,

Judgining from a few forums, Villa and non- Villa, you are going to get quite a few fans press you to show Randy some shirt mock-ups that they say is ACE, great etc... I'm afraid these mock ups were done by me. They were NOT done to stir up a hornets nest, but just cos I was curious as to what a top with modern badge etc would look like in retro style. and to aslo keep up to speed with CS software update as I am a graphic designer.

Any bombardment of queries or internet frenzy which, it seems from a few sites I've been on, may be the case, is all down to me I am afraid.

I do apologise good sir!

Stewart.
