Had a look on an 'Ull site and they were pretty much all saying 'Ull were shit but Villa are by far the worst team to play at the KC this season and that includes the home team.

Laudrup's record at Swansea isn't all that great in win % terms:

PL: 84
W:  29
D:  24
L:   31
Win %: 34.5%

His previous spells at Spartak Moscow and Mallorca weren't that great either.

You forget the small matter of winning the league cup as well

I've just done a random search upon reading your post. The first site I came to had a thread at the top of the page called "Aston Villa are fucking awful".

Sounds like a thread on a Villa site to be fair.

Tim Sherwood 2/1?? NFW!! Is there some sort of JobCentre scheme for ex-managers? 
Let's start an Ole Gunnar Solskjaer rumour again!  I can only hope!

Although I'm not a Villa fan I was at tonights game with a few friends and what I saw was truly shocking and I'll try to explain why. My team play at Conference North level and obviously the players on the pitch for Villa are light years ahead of ours in terms of natural ability. However, every time we play there is total commitment, fight, heart, desire, and a bloody minded determination to win. From our manager there is organisation, leadership and an ability to affect the game if it isn't going our way. We don't win every game but anyone that beats us knows they've been in a fight. From Villa I saw nothing of these qualities from either players or manager to such a degree that I would actually fancy our chances if we were to play you. We had to change our manager earlier this season and it isn't an easy decision to make but with Villa's record being so poor it borders on negligence to have let it go this far. I genuinely wish you all the luck in the world for the rest of the season and hope you are in the Premier League next season but unless a change of manager is made now I fear the worst. I hope my comments are accepted in the spirit that they are made as I have total respect fo Aston Villa football club and it's fans, with my own club being just 15 miles from Birmingham, I am aware of what a great club it is.

Greetings fellow Tamworth fan. Do I know you?

One of the few enjoyable aspects last night was the interplay (I refuse to use the B word) between the two sets of fans. I think the home supporters seemed to be more sympathetic towards our pain than they might otherwise have been.

I think they were a little bemused that we joined in with their songs about how shit we were.
