My demo march will begin at about 2.30, at the Leisure Centre car park (about halfway to the back), and will proceed from there, past the church, up Trinity Road and to the last turnstile for block A.

It will take the form of a silent demo, but will also include surliness and yawns.

At the football being served up?

Villa aren't making me very happy at the mo, I'd like to know if there's a long term plan - if we're just coasting for a couple of years in order to have another pop at the chumps league then fine. However, I get the feeling that we're being set up to run within our means, sell quality youngsters and plod on in mid-table.

I look forward to the many comments that no doubt will appear during the next few hours.... will look forward to when others come to their senses.

How can where he came from be "only half the problem" if you "genuinely have not got a gripe because where he came from"?

That's right. Because I don't think he should be sacked, I obviously think he's the greatest manager ever and I'm in the process of writing to Randy to beg him to organise a contract extension. In fact I might even make up my own chant about it.

I think dazzyg's protest is in danger of having less impact than an asian kid on a street corner advertising 2 for 1 any size Pizza.  If he's lucky, people will think that's what he's doing.

I wonder if the organiser(s) of this demo have got police permission to hold a march along the public highway. It is a legal requirement.
If not, it would be so funny to see them being rounded up by the West Midlands finest and chucked in the back of a police van. I think one van would be plenty.

Firstly, it's you're, not your. Secondly, your (possessive adjective) debating style is beyond idiotic. Thirdly, if you're (as in "you are") going to have a go at someone for not being "funny", it would probably make sense to try and make your (again, possessive adjective) "joke"  a small bit humorous.

And yes, this site has become to resemble more of a creche lately, particularly after you stumbled in.

Shower of pricks, the lot of them.  They should have their silly little demo in the phone box on Aston Lane to save everyone else the embarrassment.

It's probably the same mob who had the demo when he arrived.  They seem to have this fantasy embedded in their thick skulls that we've got some reputation as an entertaining footballing side which McLeish has single-handedly destroyed overnight.  Well sorry to piss all over your chips dears, but apart from 1992/3 and 1995/6, we've been pretty shit to watch for as long as I can remember.

This will be funny, they'll all (sorry both) stress that it has nothing to do with him managing the Blues then start singing shit on the city in very high pitched voices.

My own personal demo will start at noon in the High st Duxford, it will then be continued in the car, in silence for an hour and a half, we will stop for refreshment at about 2pm in a pub near a car park near the ground, we will then stroll down about ten to 3 for the game which we have already decided not to enjoy even if Team McLeish play well and win, we will then drive home in silence again to arrive back in Duxford for 6.30ish.

we support our brothers in their struggle against the McLeish !

Absofuckinglutey!

We laugh at the Knuckledraggers obsession with us but over the last few years there's been an unhealthy and embarrassing increase in the number of Villa fans obsessed with them. Can't we just go back to ignoring them, a simple cheer and chuckle at full time when their defeat is announced, why do we have to be so bloody small time?

Still, it's a good omen, the last attention seeking demonstration to our manager saw a Villa victory in an entertaining game. Maybe these twats have a point.
