Would it be more fun if we went down?

[r1hvy]

I have never been one of these might be better to go down fans but I am so sick of watching us lose now perhaps it might be for the best, for my sanity if nothing else.
I was doing some reading through Villa history, this article does it best I think!
We have had our ups and downs over our history but we've always come back up!!

Shall I state the obvious?

Yes please.

Oooh oooh I know the answer!!

George Ramsay was never manager, neither was Billy Smith, and the latter wasn't our last secretary either. Jimmy McMullan seems to have been both our first and our third manager, so well done him. Alex Massie left in 1949, not 1950. Eric Houghton was not our only manager to become a director. We didn't win the 1982 Super Cup.

That's it! Randy's master plan revealed at last. Get us down to the third tier so that we can finally complete the set of major honours by lifting the Johnstone's Paint Trophy.
