We won't beat you and that pisses me off.

Bloody truth hurts.

we could just as easily beat them big time as we did Wolves, depending on which Villa turns up on the day

money isn't the answer to everything shinny .haha  . take a look at us we have proved you don't need millions to compete at the top end of the championship . warnock has put us together on a shoe string budget for example and yet we could still win the league  . we ain't pretty to watch like yourselves or wolves who play decent passing football but we are effective to what we do . route 1 with big and brash players who will die for the cause . i would love to see the reaction on here if warnock took over aston villa next season if he left us !!!! you would all be complaining about the style of football like west brom fans when pulis was in charge there that's for sure
We allow you on here as you seem like a reasonable guy. But linking Aston Villa with Neil fucking Warnock! You've gone too far now  ;D

We'll probably beat Cardiff 4-0 then lose against Norwich. It's the new Villa way.

not just some AV fans but i see it all the time but why does warnock get so much stick around the country ? he's taken an ailing championship club to promotion contenders spending bugger all this season  . he's got a good track record at championship level too . if we don't go up this season i can see alot of championship clubs clambering for his services why not AV ?

You say that as if it would be an unreasonable thing to do. It's not. I like watching football, not whatever sick mash-up of football, rugby and Greco Roman wrestling Warnock peddles. I couldn't care less how effective it is, if I simply wanted to blow thirty quid a week on a functional, effective machine that simply gets results I could buy a toaster and watch it toast. That wouldn't satisfy my need to watch a decent game of football either. These dinosaur managers would do well to realise that it's no less pragmatic to try winning in style than it is with time-wastey hoofball, and remember that people are forking out to sit through it.

I've got no love for the Boggies but their fans were absolutely right to detest Pulis's  version of the game. Just because they replaced him with a different shaped arsehole doesn't mean his sacking wasn't fully warranted.

We are constantly reminded how difficult, ugly the championship is.
I'd rather do what it takes to get promoted.

Good for Cardiff, credit to Warnock.

If Colin gets Cardiff promoted he should be manager of the year. It’s an amazing achievement.

If that happens then we’ve got bigger problems with the space time continuum than we have with promotion, because we’re playing Norwich first!

Because I just can't stand the bloke. Hearing him whining on about his perceived injustices is reason enough not to want him to darken the doorstep of our club. For example when the game against Derby was called off due to the snow he stood there in the snow making all kinds of accusations against Derby as if it was their fault. The police and the football club called it off as they considered it too dangerous for thousands of football fans to attend the game. Can't stand him. He's a grade 1 cnut in my opinion. However I have no truck with Cardiff, good luck to them.

So would I, in which case I'd be looking more at how Wolves play, as not only has it worked for them but it looks more likely to succeed next season too.

It's not the style of football to me as everything else that goes with it. Pulis for example - I didn't mind Stoke hammering the ball but I began to hate them when he took gamesmanship to new heights; crowding the ref so he didn't know which of them to book, Rory Delap being given special protection when he took a throw. As for Colin, he should have been banned sine die after the Battle of Bramall Lane.

it will indeed colinmac. it will taste alot sweeter than 5 years ago too when we went up to the prem for 1 season when our owner turned us into a laughing stock with the redbird thing . this time warnocks warriors will be given the freedom of the city if we do make it . by the way why aren't you got a game today ? bathhouse if you can stomach a bit of route 1 football we're on the telly tonight playing sheffield why not tune in , that's if the game goes ahead . been snowing in sheffield so we may have another derbygate on our hands .haha
