Chelsea v Aston Villa Post Same Old Shit Thread

[Stirchley Villain]

There is not a single what I'd call "villa person" involved in the club at board or managerial level. The club has been woefully run and mismanaged and it's getting worse by the day. I fear its terminal now.

I met a guy a couple of years ago who was Doug's driver/Man Friday etc. He didn't have a good word to say about Lerner and the way staff at VP were treated post takeover. I thought he was just bitter at first but now I get more of what he was saying. They really don't get the club or even the whole "soccer" thing.

No but reality will bite when we get relegated and the club's revenue drops by about £100m a year. Too late for us fans then though.

Nah we'll still turn up. It might even be more fun. God knows it's excruciatingly painful at the moment...

Right now I'd take beating Bolton 1-0 then another scoreless, clueless defeat next week.

We played good today. Where have I heard that before?
We'll be ok, we just will. Where have I heard that before?

[Ron Manager]

Does anyone know why Jordan Veretout did not figure today. Not even on the bench. Has any reporter asked Sherwood that question?

[class-of-82]

We turned up in or thousands in the 3rd
We turned up in our thousands in the 2nd
And we will turn up in our thousands in the championship if we have to
Because we Are Aston villa

Erm, not quite, he was one of the better performers in the Stoke game...

Fox is a money man who knows about as much about football as my arsehole.

Agree, and I've met fox , lovely bloke but scary how little he knows about football.

At least you had something in common.

Where was Veretout today?

Where was Veretout today?

I did wonder that, is he injured as cannot believe he didn't even make the bench? Was amazed when Amavi was on the bench also, maybe he was with France under 21 but then Hutton was with Scotland.

Guys, I know we're bad but surely we didn't trick ourselves into thinking we could get a result. Even when Chelsea are at their worst we are no match for them. We can't even compete against the bottom third of the league. We have a terrible record at Stamford Bridge.
