I have a feeling Warnock will not be going anywhere. There is a decent player there and maybe PL can get that player back? Hutton is deadwood judging by PL's comments on why he hasn't taken him to the States.

My mate saw Warnock out in in Liverpool the other week, and asked him straight why he was so shit.

He said he took it well, and replied "All you Villa fans hate me", to which my mate replied "Yeah, only because you're shit"

I don't think he'll stay.


he isnt a shit player totally , he lets himself down.  Fair play to the guy for replying

If i was asked that question I dont think I would respond that well.  mind you mates ask me that at 5 aside everyweek so I take my ball home  :P

If couldn't install a telephone system properly, but still drew massive wages from it, I'd expect the same questions to be asked.


dont get me started on BT ha ha , no I know what you mean

Warnock takes an inordinate amount of shit in my opinion. We have other players that have been worse than him that don't get the same vitriol. Our beloved Gabby for example. He's been a waste of space for two two season, but for some reason escapes abuse.
Warnock was shite last season, but so was the rest of the team. Would your mate go up to Gabby as quickly I wonder.
What a moronic thing to say to a player for your club.

Warnock could be decent. Probably in the middle of the park.

maybe a more diplomatic line of " you had a difficult season last year Stephen, why do you think that was and what can you all do differently next"

Gabby only gets away with it because he's a Villa fan, ask Percy ;)

I won't say Gabby has been good for the past two years, but he's been better than Warnock has.  Particularly that purple patch at the beginning of last season.

Yeah, he would, believe me. He's as straight up a bloke you could wish to meet, he asked the same to the Djemba twins in Sutton a few years back, to which the reply that time was "thigh strain"!

Rather than shoe horn him in somewhere, i'd rather we signed a specialist that was good at it.

Not for us though.

IMO we've spent too long signing the better players from the clubs slightly below us and the reserves from the clubs slightly above us.

Dunne, Collins, Warnock and N'Zogbia fall into the former category
Given, Hutton and Ireland fall into the latter category.

On reflection it's no surprise what's happened to us with transfer activity like that.

Of course it's with the benefit hindsight, I was ecstatic when we signed Warnock, N'Zogbia and Ireland for example - but that's why it's so refreshing to see our business this Summer.

In the Djemba twins case, I wouldn't blame him. Fair play to him for being so forthright. "Thigh strain", that's hilarious.

I agree too. It's an especially stupid thing to say to a player who seemed bereft of confidence last year:

Warnock was player of the year for Blackburn in his last season there in a midfield role, MON played him as a full back and his limitations there were shown up.He might be worth keeping for a midfield back up where he is not a last line of defence?

As it stands I have doubts Makoun is staying, so the only senior DCM we have is El Ahmadi, who obviously lacks any PL experience.  I can see Ireland playing further forward and after that it's Gardner or Herd, plus Clark. 

With that in mind, Warnock seeing out the last year as cover for DCM/LB is not the worst idea we've seen suggested on this thread!
