Renaming of the Championship
« on: February 09, 2019, 09:57:29 AM »
Surely from our point of View. the championship should be renamed the Purgatory League. As we are going to be in it until we stop giving a home to burnt out busted old footballers. My hand to God Jedinak and Taylor should never don a Villa shirt again.

I thought it was actually going to be renamed when I saw the tread title. The Endsleigh Division One lives long in the memory.

Same here, and it is chastening to remember that when we won Division 3,  the Holte used to sing "Division 2 welcomes you Aston Villa".
