The thread was a sham in any case. As far as I know Krulak has not posted or answered any questions for many days. The posts are mostly about the Manager. Mods pipe up now and than with comments like  "This is not the thread  for the Manager" and "stick to the questions to General only on here" etc. So not missing much wit it locked.



The so called moderators, hypocritically. joined in the claptrap that was going on there,the past few days.

How can we be 'so called' moderators? Either we are, or we aren't.
Because sometimes you  seem to choose to be moderators when it suits you.

I'm sorry. Unfortunately there isn't a moderator school we can go to. We have to make it up as we go along.

How about doing something about " Tigerwogs" username.

He's banned.

you see what happens when your club appoints a disaster in waiting of a manager

everybody ends up at each others throats, people slabbering about mods, mods no doubt suspending the people slabbering at them etc etc


the general should have sat randy down at a computer and said "for fucks sake have a word with yourself, and look what you are doing to these good Aston Villa supporting people"

I much prefer the mods on here compared to that lot on villatalk. As for the generals thread, I feel it ran is course after the first year or so as initially it was a way of building bridges with the fans and trying to show the fans they weren't like the glazers. After 18 months or so it just seemed to be the same cycle of questions and answer. Fair play to him for posting all these years but I did feel he tended to shy away for difficult questions or would become very defensive.

Msg to Dave or whoever is in charge of H&V....do you think it is time to say thanks but no thanks to the general? Surely the point of a board member on here is to convey the fans msg to randy and pf? I'm not as anti mcleish as alot of fans but the feelings against this appointment have been monumental and thus largely ignored with the appointment. On top of which, when the general has been required on here most over the last couple of weeks he has gone to ground and left everyone guessing. We don't need an official on here towing the line and giving it all the p.r. If he is found wanting when needed the most. Only my view but I'd like to see ties cut with the board, at least till faith and trust has been restored between the board and the fans

Please stop PFE. Let the mods do the moderating. Yellow card.

Exactly like that. Banned me for calling someone pathetic, quite pathetic really.

Thanks Paulie, i'd never have worked that one out so embarrassment factor is diminishing.
