Protest? Not in my name...the football match is the main event

[Risso]

Those who don't like McLeish, whether by their own choice or just by being a sheep, have a look at this:
http://www.avfc.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10265~2604441,00.html
Our manager speaks on there in a manner hitherto unheard of by previous managers. Read it and argue against it, if you can. The man is hungry for success and is passionate about his job. Don't let a few clowns spoil things.

Saying nice things about a young player is evidence that he's going to lead us on to greater things?

Meaning what? Can't you see the enthusiasm that McLeish has? That was the point of the link.

The man is a hopeless Premier League manager.  No amount of enthusiasm or stating the bleeding obvious is going to alter that.

If you want to think that from the comfort of your armchair then go ahead.

Look, you might consider yourself the world's bestest fan, I honestly couldn't give a stuff pal, but the act is wearing a bit thin now.  Doing nothing other than go to Villa matches has obviously dulled your intellect somewhat.

It's no act. That is a very insulting comment. All this 'better supporter than you' is something that you constantly harp on about. It obviously gets at you that you rarely go. I do go. It costs me a great deal. I don't make a big deal about it. You do. I know loads of fans who regularly attend games and would never consider myself a 'bestest fan'. You are just jealous that you can't go or don't choose to. How the hell are you a moderator? Get off my case.

[Risso]

Look you dullard, I made a comment about the manager and you decided that rather than debate, you'd resort to a snide "armchair supporter" dig.  If you can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen.

You made another comment about bestest fan. Where did that come from? There is no need to call me a dullard. I seriously think that you need removing from this site.

Strange little tiff this.
It seems that DC5 has touched a Risso nerve by being too enthusiastic about supporting The Villa and Risso has equally annoyed DC5 by having possibly the biggest downer on the club outside of JismG and his crew!
Both are at extremes, but I know which side I'd rather be on.

He hasn't touched a nerve, I just think he's a twat.

That's totally unnecessary, and you've jumped on many a poster with threats of bans for less.

That's well out of order.

Gentlemen, can we please leave it now?

[bertlambshank]

Cracks open another beer and waits for the next insult (or boring Dave comes in with a grow up you 2 comment).

I won't stoop to your depths.

A name calling moderator? I get the feeling the nerve was well and truly touched.

Now, now boys.....

DC5 - nobody can doubt your loyalty and commitment to Villa, my god, few fans can match the amount of games you have attended.  However, it's not as if the the likes of Risso stuck a pin in the map and just chose Villa to follow, this is a lifetime worth of support for him as well - which is why the armchair comment probably grates.  I'm sure he would rather be at Villa Park than somewhere else on a Saturday afternoon.   Life has taken me in a different direction for now, so I have to watch from afar as well.  It doesn't lessen my passion for Villa one iota - and I'm sure he is the same.

Risso - I think an apology might be in order.

My (probably unwanted) two pennies worth.

I appreciate both Risso and Dave. But I want to say that I consider Dave the most legendary Villa fan that I had the chance to meet. I think that he attends almost every game, home and away, and he is  a true Villa encyclopedia. When I met him in Wien he remembered perfectly a certain goal scored in 1971-72 season during a game of third Division that he attended. So, I hope that Risso and Dave will make peace, as it is totally pointless a quarrel between two passionate Villa fans! Football is  an entertainement, mates, not a question  of life or detah, and we all belong to the same family.

The trouble is that I can't remember much since the Third Division. Too much beer. Looking forward to next European trip.
