The Villa Resurgent

What about Biscuits?

My positivity!

New kit seems to be coming soon, just in time for Father's day a week Sunday, I hear it's akin the V neck (proper claret) of 82 / 83.

Another whisper is that all the leeches we don't want will have to have a "compromise" contract paid up otherwise we will hang them out to dry in public as a drain on us and not contributing.

Pre season to look forward to shortly after England's inevitable 2nd round exit.

I'd expect us to be in the championship for quite some time now so better to be a stable club with youth coming through and a sprinkling of cheap foreign imports who are hungry to play.

This leaves us with possibly a starting XI of

Bunn

Bree New DF New DF New LB

Green Lansbury Bjarnson Hourihane

Davis Hogan


Sold:
Chester
Elmo
Taylor
Whelan
Grealish
Jedinak
Adomah
Kodija

Fucked Off
Gollini
Richards
McCormack

-Leaves us with debts at sustainable level
-All the leeches fucked off
-New players coming in on promotion only bonuses
-Youth given a chance
-No more "we deserve to be in PL bollucks" just hard work, endevour and desire.   
- 1 midfielder no longer sacrificed as "holding" (this is the goddam 2nd divison for fuck sake)
-Bruce given until Oct (unless he walks)


All in a positive way to start the season - just like everybody else who wants to get out the division. Oh and of course a huge kick in the nuts for WBA when we tear them a new on at VP.

Jeez I hope we can cobble together a better team than the one above !

[SashasGrandad]

On a positive note - we have not been told the new pitch has been cancelled. There must be activity in Witton lane with trucks taking away the old surface and a new one being laid.

That has been organised for months so can't see that being delayed.

[Pete3206]

The old pitch was dug up as the soon as the season finished, so I would hope they'd laying a new surface.

The lead singer drinks in my local. It's not cheap but I don't think he's got the funds to launch a takeover.

How about we can reintroduce standing on the Holte 2019/20?

As soon as we go back to the round badge everything will be fine

There is a nice piece in the Observer about how the club are helping out with a local league to make it accessible for Muslims during Ramadan.
