Why is it some people on here seem to think that because you don't spend every hour of every day day on here bashing the club, it means that you're happy with the way it's run?

Who are these posters that spend every hour of every day on here bashing the club?

I was being pedantic, but as Lerner bashing goes, you every day is not far off.

I say we start a game called the Saunders Heroes drinking game. Every time he mentions Lerner, everyone else has to knock back a shot of Sambuca. A reckon we'll all be pissed by the final whistle.

That sounds like a good game. I'll start another game called The Nodding Dog game where every time Lerner is criticised and the same old faces appear to defend him everyone else has to throw back a shot of poteen.

Ahh, another nodding dog comment. Unnecessary but not surprising.

It's open season now. Dave called someone an idiot just a few minutes ago but you didn't have the guts to pull him up about it but you assume the moral high ground with me.
A bit of consistency and all that.

Don't worry, they like to hunt in a pack.

I would start defending him for a couple of shots of that stuff...

I've got some. Lethal stuff.

Been ages since I have had some, never had a hangover on that stuff.

My family are from the west of Ireland. When we were kids and any of us had toothaches my mom would dab a bit on the guilty tooth and it would dull the pain.
She'd be locked up if she did it now. Mind you they'd have to dig her up first.

I'll pull up who I like, not who you want me to.

Just as I thought.

[Clampy]

Just as I thought.

And you thought right.

I think i'll leave it there, i'm sure other posters don't want to read endless pages of squabbling.

[Chris Harte]

As Lerner has written off £90M, does that mean the new asking price will be £290M?

Yes, but just to recap - you have a problem with me saying "nodding dog" because it's personal but no problem whatsoever with Dave calling another poster an idiot.
Yeah let's leave it at that.

[Hoppo]

Its a draw at the minute lads.. Dave and his disciples 2 Fergal and His Heroes 2.. full time in about 10 minutes.

Very true.

Don't forget, it might go to penalties....

I think there might be a red card before that

[Dave Cooper please]

Oh by the way, get off the bandwagon, unless you are trying to worm your way into being a mod...

Sorry?
What bandwagon is this then.
I haven't even said I agree with Woodhall, just wondering why you and SH are continually recycling the same old bollocks aimed in his direction in post after post and thread after thread, it must be as plain as day what his views on the subject are by now so I don't understand your motives in calling him on it time and again.

Fucked if I'd want to be a Mod on here, I'd have culled half of you fuckers within minutes!

As Lerner has written off £90M, does that mean the new asking price will be £290M?

If he was to sell, I think the club would be valued somewhere between £200m and £300m.  Which, in a way, is good as it will keep away buyers that have struggled to put together £60m or £70m to buy a club and then only have £20m to spend on players.  The likes of which have seen their clubs slide into the Championship or are about to.

I keep on saying it but English football is in a mess.  The competitiveness has gone out of the Premier League because of the Champions League and there are only a few clubs in with a shout.  It is like being in a casino where the high rollers are on one table and where the stakes are high.  You can only get on that table if you can match their money.

Supporters of clubs like Villa are getting fed up with the minimal chance of winning a cup and that's it, with no chance of top 4, let alone the Title.  They are also becoming tired of constantly being told they could be in a relegation battle because they are below 8th or 9th in the table.  There is now not much between any of the clubs below 9th.

To try and bring a bit of stability to the PL, I have been thinking that cutting the relegation places back to 2 might be a good idea.  Even one of those being a play-off with a team from the Championship.  The worry of relegation is having such a negative impact on the PL that it is causing the quality of football to drop dramatically.  There is so much fear that young players are not given a chance to develop.

Randy has spent 200 million on getting us back to where we were when he bought us.
That can hardly be seen as good management.
