matin oneil did a good job but he lost the script,he was given more money power and backing than anyother manager in our illiustrious history,he should have been sacked after the moscow fiasco.we will finish this season higher without him tahan we would have if he had stayed.he will never manage a club as big as the villa again.

I still reckon the board was happy with this decision at the time (as was a lot of fans). As with anything hindsight is 20-20.

it was quite hilarious when it came out that they'd all done the obvious thing and gone to whl to watch the spurs citeh game. hilarious in a 'oh my, i could really smash your faces in' kind of way.

and holt claiming that the figures they're hearing are all coming from the club rather than martin o'neill. well i'll tell you what oliver, if you take your head out of o'neill's arse, you can get yourself over to companies house and go look at our accounts for yourself you lazy, clueless, stuttering 'tard.

Oliver Holt still doesn't see things your way...

My apologies to those Aston Villa fans I may have offended by pouring scorn on the comments of Randy Lerner’s right-hand man, General Charles C Krulak, after he launched a scathing attack on Martin O’Neill.

I am happy to accept General Krulak’s 36 years in the US Marines and his involvement in pointless, ­unsuccessful, imperialistic American wars in Vietnam and Iraq qualifies him as an English football expert.

Did we really expect him to say anything else? To do that would be to expect a journalist to actually do some research into the subject matter which for a twat like him is too much to ask. His apology is nothing of the sort as his last line illustrates his contempt for Villa fans and a third rate attempt at sarcasm.

The General's comments were hardly scathing although that fact doesn't fit the story. I'm glad I don't waste my money on stuff like this.

Holt is a cocksucker of the highest order.

I know I shouldn't have bitten, but.......

My word, you really are an ignorant man, aren't you? If you think that it was your questioning General Krulak's knowledge of the English football (a reasonable query considering he's only been involved for 4 years or so) that annoyed some villa fans, then you really haven't a clue.

I'll leave aside your one-sided, look-after-your-mates slant that you put on the MON leaving story, but I do wonder if you'd have the balls to say something similar about a former member of the British armed forces? Or are the imperialistic wars that they have been part of somehow better?

So what exactly qualifies Holt as a "football expert"?

Cock.

Your uninformed comments about General Krulak have annoyed many Villa fans and your apology is no better. In typical tabloid fashion you choose to focus on the General's outstanding military record although his CV in Business is equally as impressive, although you seem to chose not to mention that. His business acumen makes him an ideal business Director, which is the main role he plays at Villa Park. A football club is, after all, a business so it makes sense to me to have top business men on the Board.
Through lack of diligence, you completely fail to understand that much of our respect and affection for the General comes from the fact that he choses to spend time communicating with Villa fans, either through Message boards or in person at Villa Park on match days. How many Directors of other Premiership clubs chose to do this? Certainly none of your beloved Top 4.
His comments about MON were hardly scathing and in my view seemed to make sense. Did you ever get round to reading what he actually said?
Do yourself a favour and actually spend a little time looking into how this gentleman works and you might actually end up writing an article of real interest.

Grrr!

Holt's utterly pathetic comments about the General, his uninformed views about our club and his ridiculously ugly face make him the perfect columnist for the mirror.

He is actually a multi sports columnist of the year winner.  Who the hell decides these things?

He's angling for a reaction, and like all little children throwing a tantrum he's best ignored.

Very true Dave.

He's got a reaction though as we refuse to allow him to drag our clubs name, or the good people associated with it through the mud.  I totally agree that he should be ignored, but i've got an extremely short temper about things like this.

I'd just love to keep kicking him up the arse until he started crying. From the look of him that wouldn't take too long, the bed wetting c**t.
