We have our club back.  Last season was the first time in 37 years that I never went to a single Villa game.  I will get a season ticket now.  The Villa is ours.  I am so happy.

Doesn't sound like they are unduly bothered about any future legal nonsense from AM does it?

Maybe he is pretty decent, or a clause was inserted in the contract.

Thank fuck for that, the nightmare is over. A very dark cloud has immediately lifted from our club. Do one Alex.

Marvellous news! The church bells are ringing here in Dresden and know I know why: they're ringing for claret and blue

Arranged especially for you, Frank.  Hope you're having a good time.

At last, a well-written and honest press release from the club.  Let's draw a line under everything and move on as a club.

I get they feeling that was written Stateside. Randy is obviously not a happy chap and has obviously realised too many at the club are in a comfort zone. The millions lost in PL prize money won't have helped his mood either.

Onwards and upwards!

Very refreshing to finally hear the media talking about how poor the football was this season (Paul Colley on Skysports)  and not banging on about how the Villa fans didn't like him because he was Blues

I'm still waiting to see who they appoint before renewing though

I can do some fucking work now

And me!

It feels like you was told the terminal illness you had has just gone away - fantatsic news, almost as good news is the fact the club finally got it, it must have been the Bolton game that it finally sank in just how much shit we were in

Well done all the fans that had placards  / banners etc - it finally dispelled the myth about where he came from

I even have some faith back that Randy and co will get the appointment right

What we need to do, no matter who it is next, we have to support them

Unless of course (Curbishley / McCarthy or Potato head) any of those will be an even bigger step backwards

Norwich have already issued a "hands off" warning to clubs looking to nick Lambert.

Thought his name was Paul ;-) ?
