I'm thinking of pushing my data to the cloud. Anyone else...?

I signed up over there, using my own/same name as on here. It's just like having a new local boozer open a few doors away from your existing boozer.

I love you all, H&V has felt like my home for nearly a decade and that won't change. Nothing wrong with having a holiday home though.
Just look me in the eye and tell me they mean nothing to you?

Very good!

To be honest, I don't know how anyone finds the time to post on more than one forum per day. I get a H&V fix usually on my lunch break and an occasional evening.



I know how you feel. Keeping up on here with work and 3 kids is hard work. Other forums - where do folk find the time.

I saw Sid doing his shopping at the Co-Op in Lazy Hill once, though it may have been a Nisa at the time. Then a few days later whilst doing my big-shop I saw him in Aldridge Morrison's.

Thick as thieves me n Sid!

I spent thirty years living in Aldridge, including three years living over the butchers on the High Street, and never ran into a single Villa player, manager or legend, and you see Sid twice in a week. Bastard.

Can't we just send a few masked up posters over there to protect H&V interests? We'll claim they are TBAR militia and have nothing to do with us and us calling them to protect themselves is merely within internet law. We should call on TBAR to not attack any pro-H&V posters and if they fail to give greater protection and freedom to pro H&Vers then we should go in en masse to protect them ourselves.

Just an idea.

Seeing Mazrim there is like seeing Jesse Owens racing a horse. And winning.

its a strange feeling visiting another site. I do enjoy reading it but have not yet been tempted to post. it seens a well run site but I have never seen so many people claiming to be in the know! I counted 5 non mods or founding fathers claiming to be in the know or ha e a sauce. I hope they are genuine and we are about to join the elite again but I wont be to dissapointed if they are wrong. its taken my mind off the league position at least

Maz hasn't left here, has he? When his enthusiasm for the Villa wanes as it seems to have lately, you know we're in dire straits.

Well it seems the ITKs over there have really shot themselves in the foot, what are they left with, Randy is maybe selling and he may have a buyer or not, i'm waiting for them to claim the credit if and when he does sell.

To be fair, I don't care who claims the credit as long as he sells to the right owners!

A footballer came here from France,
His talent did not merit a glance,
When the going got tough,
He stormed back in a huff,
Did we care? Voice despair?
Not a chance.

I agree totally. Unfortunately I don't believe everyone has that view.

What is the latest ITK know over threre?  The last I read was we were sold to the Texas Rangers pair, and then a second golden spanner made a bid.  Has anything developed from there?
