How Will We Do In The Championship?

[Monty]

He's surpassed himself this time. Insulting Jewish AND disabled people in a single word? Impressive.

[Witton Warrior]

Just ban him. He lowers the tone on every thread anyway.

Agreed. He offers nothing in terms of value to any topic being discussed. We can deal with differing viewpoints but when someone is going out of their way to be outright obnoxious then there's no need for them to be here.

I didn't know what the term meant - looked it up.
Seems to refer to someone like my son who can't now attend his beloved Villa because of his flidness

Horrible word

[cheltenhamlion]

To make it clear, I don't believe he says it with malice. Without wishing to sound too smug, he is "maladjusted" and will inadvertently end up causing repeated offence.

Ah those were the days....I rember being at a game at VP back in the day when we were playing Spurs and they took the lead to euphoria from their following in front of the North Stand.A particularly irate Villa supporter sitting behind me took issue with this with the reposte "You lot can fucking shut up at least I have a foreskin'.

Eh?

[brian green]

It is odd the way the level intended offence has to be abstracted from language.  The word used offensively in this instance was in common and frequent use in my parents' devout Methodist home meaning a tantrum or a display of silly temper.  "Your sister has been sent to bed.  She had a f*id because her toast was burned."

Watching the Newcastle fans on Sunday at St James. That was incredible. I started watching without about 4minutes of the Villa game left, great choice to switch. And have you seen the new rant from that Geordie mush re relegation? Probably took off U Tube by now. Absolute quality.
The geordie fans, obviously buoyed by smashing the Flids 5-1, are all unanimously singing and Barry bannering for Rafa to stay. Showed a lot about what we been missing at Villa, and was extremely commendable. Went on for a good 15 minutes after the game
 Most excited we got on Sunday was getting a fuckin corner.
Still, UTV.

Of all the things to knock, our quality away support isn't one of them. Meanwhile a week earlier the Geordie nation were as quiet as church mice.

As an aside, I'm watching Keegan on Sporting Heroes on sky and I've always loved the blokes passion.

He's talking about leaders in the dressing room and how the ones he had Adams, Schmeichel, shearer would often call players out at half time before he had even started to speak.  You can't underestimate how much we have lacked in this department for far too long.

[dave shelley]

It's often quoted and, is mainly correct that, you don't get relegated in one game, its over the season.  I think Newcastle's inability to beat us last week proved the exception rather than the rule. 

[kippaxvilla2]

Daily Heil are reporting in last hour that Rafa is staying at Newcastle.

[mr underhill]

Well Mike must have offered him a sum of money that makes Croesus weep, together with the usual gigantic 'war chest'.

[Jimbo]

We shouldn't worry too much about Newcastle next season. They are already miles ahead of us.

[brian green]

That's the spirit.

[Jimbo]

Yes, quite. Sort our own mess out first.
