AVFC statement - McLeish sacked.

[villajk]

The reason he's not meeting Faulkner is because he's a dribbling keyboard warrior who knows he's be shown up for the cock he is if he had to talk with a real grown-up about grown-up things away from the internet.

Two things to remember here.
1) Damian Dugdale has, for some reason, never like Randy so everything he writes is coming from a negative angle.
2) It's the internet. Anyone can set up a little online gang and make themselves look important. 

Who exactly is Damien Dugdale?  Would I know him?

I don't even know why Faulkner offered them the possible oxygen of a meeting. It would have been a completely pointless exercise. He won't be able to change their somewhat underdeveloped minds and they won't be able to influence the decision-making of the club.

I'd imagine he firstly wants to show the club cares about the fan's opinions and secondly wants to try and convince them of the longterm plan and get them back onside. 

For the 2nd part, I'd suggest small words and illustrations in crayon are the best way to communicate with them.

Doubt it. He's had spells living abroad and certainly hasn't ever 'networked,' as I believe the term goes.

Wasn't he damiand on here and got banned for being the business end of a gentleman's reproductory organ?

They'll be confused by colour John and will have missed the various advances made in writing instruments. Faulkner would have needed to have had some bone and a clay tablet available. Pray that nobody struck a match and showed them fire at any point too.

Good posts John and Dave. The club extended an olive branch and for these idiots not have the slightest open mind to at least hear the other side without any other noise is indicative of who they are, and what they have come to represent. Even if at the end they still disagree which is their right, they'll have had the intelligence and foresight to take in another very important perspective.

Villa Fans United - so united they can't even agree that they have chosen the right name for themselves. They turn down a meeting with Faulkner and instead of seeing it as a missed opportunity to put across their views they reckon it's a slap in the face for him. I'm sure he will still be able to sleep at night. They also state they have only one aimand that is to get McLeish sacked but reckon once that aim is achieved they will then meet Faulkner. Why? Do they reckon he will let them choose the next manager? And one of the digs they have at Randy Lerner is they reckon he would sell for the right price. Firstly, that's hardly a shock revelation and secondly I would have thought that would suit them. These Ryan and Damian characters remind me of Baldrick and Percy.

[Dave Cooper please]

Looking at the comments they are using the old VFC defence of "Either join us or shut up, at least we are doing something."

[Rigadon]

I'd comment on this pathetic, self-important, childish garbage but it goes against the core principles of my movement. 

[damon loves JT]

I can't be bothered even to be embarrassed for them. They look stupid and they deserve it.

[Legion]

Wasn't he damiand on here

Yes.

[cheltenhamlion]

Ha, ha. What a pathetic looking bunch of idiots.

[Clampy]

How can they call themselves Villa Fans United when they've only got 195 people following them on Facebook?
