Absolutely Mr U.  The money washing around the Premiership can ameliorate serious errors of judgement.  You drop a bollock like N'Zogbia or Ireland or Gabby in the Championship and you pay for that mistake for years.
Bradford and Carbone come to mind.

but as we all know it's not easy getting back up quickly. Just look at Middlesboro.

I think the mistake they made was getting rid of Southgate as early as they did and taking on Tony Mowbray.

Now I know moaning about how tedious punathons are pisses people off then I shall ensure I have a right good moan each time one starts up rather than scrolling past them.

I hate punathons, they're tedious.

I thought the use of irony and puns was supposed to separate us from the dim-witted Yanks.

If it is the Chinese consortium with the Chinese Government involved which is being reported, I hope they don't expect me to join the communist party, also they better not try to change the the kit colour to red and add more stars to our badge,  well not until we have won the champions league again....

It'd be nice to have any kind of party at Villa Park. It's been a while.
