Summer 2013: Villa Transfers, Speculation, Suggestions and Rumours

[eamonn]

I do often wonder what i'd do if someone offered me this at the start of a season: Win the FA Cup and get relegated. I REALLY want to see us win the FA Cup to complete the set.

Well then, put your money where your mouth is...whose season would you have taken, ours or Wigan?

[PeterWithesShin]

How can I put my money where my mouth is when I said I wonder what i'd do in that situation?

Another late night HnV love in argument ?
I really rate Stephen Ireland by the way. Can i join in ?

[WALTERS WARRIORS]

How much bloody space do you want Walters ?

Ye that was a bit spacy !! I could not get the link right which contains a photo of Benteke driving out of Bodymoor training ground with a man in the back who I am not sure who he is .......

[Goldie.7]

[PeterWithesShin]

I'd take the fa cup - waited so long to get it that it would just be an incredible day to win it and villa if relegated would soon get back up - from a personal view that is , obviously the club would prefer to stay up .

For me as with a lot of others the fa cup would complete the set and i really hope to see it before i die

A no for me. I'd love to see us win the Cup but there's no guarantee we'd come straight back up if we went down.

No way for me. Perhaps 20 years ago when the FA Cup had a proper lustre to it but it has been devalued so much now that it wouldn't be worth the many disadvantages of being relegated

I understand that clampy, for me personally seeing villa winning the fa cup is still the holy grail - it would be a day I've dreamt of for 40 years - obviously for the club being in the premiership is more important.

I am on the 1st of my 9 days off now and can dream

So longas money is so important in the sport staying in feeding frenzy is the be all and end all.  I wish that wasn't the case but there no chance I'd take the FA cup if it meant relegation.  There's a good chance we'd come straight back, but there's also a chance we'd end up like Forest.  On top of that, selfish as it may sound, the big advantage of the premier league is that I can watch pretty much every match on TV from here, if we went down I'd barely see a game.

As much as I want to win the FA Cup, it is vital for the way we're trying to build the club that we don't get relegated. In a few years we'll win several.
