I wasn't 'in' on the in joke

[SheffieldVillain]

Oh dear ... the rot continues I see. I bet all the AM fan club were getting ready to give me a griling on here today

Yes dazzyg,when the second goal went in and I was jumping round going mental with 5199 other Villa fans,you were the first person I thought of 

I knew it ! you were preparing your replies to my fantastic comments on this site. But then what happened ? Yes Am f**ked up again and we lost (again) I pity you having any faith in him.

Well, there we go. At least one positive to Villa losing. It made dazzyg happy. Because he's such a great Villa supporter that he actively wants them to lose.

Ah the Sheffield Villain has poked his head up again ! What's a villa fan doing in bleeding Sheffield you already have two teams up there is two not enough?
Anyway back to the story......what makes you think I want my beloved team to lose you muppet? I love my team and alwats want us to win otherwise why I would be paying over £600 quid for a season ticket (are you all thick up north or what) where on here did i ever say I wanted us to lose? My point as it always is AM is not the man for us - SIMPLES !

What I was doing in Sheffield when I chose my username was working and living there. I'm actually not anymore. It doesn't really matter though does it? As people do tend to move from city to city. Or perhaps that's another element of your 'perfect Villa fan' routine shit.

As for when did you say that you wanted Villa to lose, your delight every time we lose is very obvious.

Finally, you calling someone thick is like Emile Heskey telling someone they have a shit goalscoring record.

So people can't move house? Or have other reasons for supporting their chosen team? My Dad was born and bred in Wolverhampton. He fell in love with Aston Villa through work and relocation. He brought me up as a Villa fan and one of the proudest days of my life was sitting next to him in the Holte End the other season. He is Villa through and through. So am I. I have had a ST for 16 years or so. I was born and bred in Great Barr. I now live and work in Walsall. Am I a lesser fan than you because of it?

We should have gone for Chris Hughton!

We should have gone for Chris Hughton!

This is probably the most galling thing about it, we've taken the useless plank from them and they replaced him with a better manager who is playing decent football, it's pretty much the nightmare scenario.

[TonyD]

In answer to the thread question - no and never. 

And edited just to say nothing to do with him being a Blues manager.

More the fact that he is a poor manager that will NEVER take us forward.

My god it is simple.   

It takes a very good manager to win or challenge for anything in the PL.

MON had his ceiling with £130m.

To think that AM can do better with his record is simply laughable.

And the annoying thing is if it goes tits up with McLeish they'd never go for a Blues manager a second time despite Hughton  being decent.

[Jockey Randall]

This is really starting to get on my nerves now. Why do people expect Mcleish to have built his side in so little time and when we've got no money to spend? I think 2-3 years is the time to judge him when he's had the time to get his players in place. Some football fans are so impatient these days, it's like people want success now or sack the bloke and no club ever does well having that strategy. Hughton's doing a good job but look how many players he's bought in since he's been there, it's virtually his team. The same cannot be said of the villa team.

You can't say that as it's apparently a myth!

How much did Mcleish spend winning the League Cup then?

Yes, we could give him 2-3 years, but we could also be in lot worse situation in that time too - it depends in your confidnece in the bloke to get it right (his past record in England would say not) - look at Martinez, he has had time at Wigan, and where are they? Also, for all those managers who have had plenty of time to get it rght, there have been ones who have hit the ground running with little budget- See Norwich, Swansea.

Problem is a lot of Vila fans don't have the confidence in him full stop, time allowance aside. Why should they? 2 relegations at one club in past few years, un-attractive and in-affective football. IMO as much as I like the bloke, he's not the right man....but Alex, prove me wrong!

To be fair teams like these are prone to fall away quite dramatically in their 2nd season in the top league.

Sorry for repeating myself, although it is something that you monotonously do, but can you enlighten me in which part of the ground you paid over £600 for your season ticket please?

Well if you have a season ticket in the expensive bit of any stand then the cost is £580 (corrected for the morons)

I have obviously hit a nerve with Sheffield man ! I have never once said I want Villa to lose where did you get that shit fom as you like to say?
