Oh right, you mean when I said

Are you really a 'lifelong supporter' if you don't actually go and support?


Thats just a general question not aimed at anyone specific.

I've already outlined my own thoughts on it. Its not as if someone can't disagree with my opinion, its not fact.

General Krulak here:

1.  TJP:  Yes, there will be some cosmetic work done around the stadium but the North Stand will entail major work.

2.  hawkeye:  I already answered your question by a statement I made to clarify why I said what I said.  I recommend you read what I said before you stop the Season Ticket.

3.  A poll on whether this has been a good season or not???  My goodness.

4.  MODS: I will be off the site until Friday...have two board meetings to attend.  Probably will help my sanity a bit.

General do you think that asking someone who is a lifelong supporter who they are going to support because they are unhappy is in keeping with a proud history bright future?
I will not be renewing my season tickets if that is your attitude.

 General Welcome to our world !
 always wanting more never happy give give  some  live in fantasy land .. others are happy with the  slow sustained progress..  I dont post often this site  drives me NUTTTTTTTTTTTSS
gENERAL CAN YOU BELIEVE THEREE IS A POLL RUNNING ON HERE  WITH THE OPTION GOOD OR BAD SEASON ! FFS
.
hey poll stop knocking the poll!


I know, it is incredible that on this, an independent supporters web site, there should be a poll where people can discuss whether they think it has been a good season.

It just beggars belief, doesn't it?

What do we think we are? Free to express our own opinions and (attempt to) discuss things like mature adults?

The thought of forking out £450 or so to see us hit the dizzy heights of 6th isn't inspiring


General do you agree that in a world where the likes of Huddersfield Town fans pay £450 to see their team hit the heights of 6th in League One, we have an extraordinarily good deal at VP?

I don't think that was what graham poll meant. What was meant was, why, after our best season since, what, 2000, there is a need for such a poll.

ps supporter for 38 years, I'm 39 so I've done my best. ;o)

I also commented that the problem wasn't only a Villa problem, but a football problem in general in this country. Check out the price of football in the bundesliga.

Because there is clearly some debate over it.

It's really not that difficult. If you've a problem with that, you are putting yourself at odds with the whole existence of this site, which is to discuss Aston Villa.

I've seen far more batty suggestions debated on here (over the course of hundreds of pages sometimes) than "have we had a good season".

Although admittedly not very often since Peter W disappeared.

Many thanks for your time and effort to respond to the good the bad , the futile and idiotic questions , all this done with good grace , at time obvious bewilderment.,

From my own view a great season , close but enough I am sure that the staff and management know ....  we are on the edge ,

not relegation , all other rubbish we have had to accept in the previous few years prior to the new owners

keep healthy, keep smiling and thanks

Incidentally, said thread contains more reasoned, well argued comment from both sides than any other thread on the site at the moment.

General, do you think that one of the reasons teams like Huddersfield have to charge such prices is because all the money in football is concentrated amongst just a few elite clubs in one elite league and doesn't filter down anywhere near enough to the grass roots?
