I have never, ever advocated booing / berating our players - I've had arguments in the past when its happened at games.

But right now, I absolutely despise some of this team - not all of them (some just ain't good enough) - I'd be happy to see Richards, Gabby, Lescott, Bacuna and Guzan get absolute pelters against Chelsea.

Their contempt for us has been apparent for a long time. Time for some payback.

Reminding them that they're not fit to wear the shirt would be a good place to start.

I would LOVE to see that on Saturday - would restore some level of faith in me anyway, that Villa fans understood the rot still has to be dealt with. The more these players realize we want them gone, the better

There isn't a single player in the squad that I'd be sorry to see leave in the summer.

What about the married ones?

I'm going.

Save it for their Lap of Appreciation after the Newcastle game. Everybody staying behind to chant 'wankers' at them as they walk around the pitch. They deserve nothing less.

Lap Of Appreciation? You're having a larf. More like a Lap Of You Gullible Tossers. From this pile of shite.

Indeed. I'm sure they won't be arsed to give one. Partly because it would require them moving their lazy, overpaid arses but also because they probably know what awaits them.

They would have to be fucking nuts to meander around the pitch waving after the Newcastle game.

Asides from their woeful performances and shocking attitudes, has there ever been a squad of Villa players as thick as these?

The likes of Gabby, Richards, Lescott, Guzan and Bacuna constantly made brainless decisions on the field and seem equally empty headed off it.

im hoping we have relegation clauses inbuilt into the contracts of all the first team squad.

unfortunately very few are out of contract in the summer but I'm all for paying off players to leave like West Ham did with Nolan.

Absolute silence would be better, preferably with backs turned

They all drop at least 30% on wages to a man according to Fox a few weeks ago.

The players are ******. Not all of them, but too many and they are pretty much all in the senior pro bracket.

Others play along with it but be in no doubt the Ring Masters in the 1st team dressing room are Flabby and Richards.

The contempt I hold them in is hard to describe.

I'm sure whoever comes in will be seeking assurances that they have full control over the players, otherwise you have the scene befitting of Cloughy at Leeds

As with so many comments on here, i'm sick and tired of seeing these people masquerading as footballers, and can't wait to see the back of them

Over the past couple of seasons I've watched pre-match footage of our team getting off the coach and entering various stadia and I've often been struck by how scruffy they look.  No suits and ties, just tracky bottoms, t-shirts, big ear phones and an assortment of cases and bags.  Not including the Cup Final, when did a Villa team last wear a suit and tie to a match?  It's a small detail, I know, but it speaks volumes for me about the low standards running right the way through the Club.

Heard on the BBC that Paul McGrath has tweeted his best wishes to Remi Garde and said that he is in no way responsible for our plight. He goes on to say that Garde was let down by the owner, the board and the players.
