Well they're going to have to be very busy between now and the start of next season. Big work to be done, again.

That was the case even if we brought in 2 or 3 this time.

I thought Garde might have a few young, french players up his sleeve - raw talent. Cheapish.

Even McGeady dropped a division. Off to Wednesday.

We'd only be spending the next 6 months kidding ourselves that they're competent and bedding in anyway before they turned in to more Syllas and Lunas.

I think Garde is a decent, honourable man but after the debacle this transfer window I can see him walking after the game tomorrow, sadly

We are going to get Odemwingie, I can feel it. It makes sense - we are desperate and he knows the area

Knowing our luck he'd end up at Blose's car park, demanding a move to anywhere but Villa.

I like to think I've kept my powder dry so far, and refused to rush to judgement as the month has worn on.

But now I feel fairly comfortable in reaching the conclusion that we currently have the single most useless bunch of arseholes robbing a living running, sorry that's the wrong word, ruining our club.

They can all fuck off, the fucking charlatans. A pox on them. They must get through gallons of Ovaltine.

Well surely if he was going to walk he'd do it today. Don't buy all this leaving bollocks

This or very soon. I think he must have been aware of some of the shit going on but not to the extent we're at now. It wouldn't surprise me at all if he walked.

The meek surrender sticks in my craw.

I appreciate we're in a difficult place, but we should be fighting and kicking to save ourselves.

Yep regardless of the gap, we are the only club who have clearly just completely given up.

And who would blame him. 15 more games. 15 more post match conferences to try and get through.

He'll have some serious respect from me though if he does stay and mastermind a brave new Villa era.

If he does that he'll be the best manager in the game.

Despite this season being dreadful I've tried to remain optimistic.....Until today. Its clear that Randy and the rest of the ****** on the board will only be happy when its confirmed that this club is playing in the second tier. Any remote hope will be done and dusted at 11pm tonight. If it meant being relegated to get an owner that had the clubs interests at heart I'd take it. I can't put into words the hatred I feel towards those utter wankers at the helm of our club, all I know is it makes me feel very nauseous.
