As this thread falls from the top of the charts it seems to me that some posters have been using it on a purely speculative basis, in order to get a short term 'return' on their post count.  Perhaps the high points of yesterday and earlier today were not indicative of its real value?

If nothing else, this thread has convinced me that it's a sound investment for my post count in the short, medium and long term.

So as a fan of this thread you have no worries about its future. Is that just a personal view or do you speak on behalf of all supporters of the thread?

I wonder how many man-hours have been lost to British industry by this thread?


Amongst the tea breaks, fag breaks, extended lunch breaks and water cooler breaks, I don't think management will be sweating too much.

I have no worries about this thread.  Sure, its had a bad afternoon, it's not been well, everyone knows that, but I'm just so delighted to see it so smiley wiley now.  You can see how happy it is now that the post count has resumed its former glorious level.  This post is for the thread, which has been honest with me from day one, and has never lied about what subjects I'd have to comment on.

This gesture is just my way of paying tribute to that.  If that gets me in trouble with the authorities then I'll appeal.

Perhaps to bring it back on-topic we could all say whether, in one word (or less), we're worried about Villa's future?


possibly

I think this thread has done as well as could be expected. Obviously it hasn't had the benefit of being backed as much as some other threads, and we haven't been able to bring in the sort of posters we'd like, but what we've had has been an honest bunch of posts.

I also wish people wouldn't keep harping on about the success of this thread 20 pages ago, those posters have long since gone and it's up to us to revive it and put it back amongs the elite European posts.

We cannot keep living off the glory of past posts.

Due to the lack of ambition seen recently on this thread, I'm going to set up a protest group; it will be called VFC - Villa Forums Chastised.

I think this thread is looking a bit peaky, it needs a bypass.

What does me have to say about that? Did me get a say in in your self opinionated, self appointed role as official spokesperson for me or did you see me as a vehicle for your own ends?

If you ask me I think its a bit rich.

I hope you agree with me. If you don't, you're probably right!!
