Fans Worried Over Villa Future

concerned.

You obviously think there are lot of people out their who disagree with the VFC stuff. Well now is your chance to unite them and spread the message of the majority.

And say what? Ellis In? There's no point, he's there already. Ellis Out but we don't want to shout about it? That's a bit self-defeating.

One of the pro-VFC lobby's regular claims is that anyone who disagrees with them should 'do something themselves.' Many of us have, for many years, and with no help from anyone who is part of VFC, because they didn't seem too keen on doing anything at all prior to forming their gang. I don't remembr Jon Fear handing out many £ signs, or helping with Ian Robinson's election campaign, for starters.

Others don't want to do anything because they've got what they want already. It's not about egos, it's about VFC's inability to accept that ordinary supporters can disagree with them.

I represent the Villa Fans Front of Judea. [VFFJ] NOT the Judean Villa Fans Front.


Fucking Popular Front of Judean Villa fans....  [-(

This is a wonderfully free country in some respects and you are allowed to do that.

You may have noticed that people on this site are using such freedom to express varied opinions about VFC.  You seem to think that this is the crime of the century and people should be constrained from doing so unless they are willing to form “their own group” of some description.  

That is, if I may say so, an incredibly ridiculous point of view.

One of my primary objections to Fear’s latest ego-driven media offering is the fact that his palpable disappointment that Villa did not lose last Sunday is so barely concealed that it’s embarrassing.  The guy is clearly so desperate to get his name in the papers that he wishes disaster on the team that most people on this site support with the hearts they wear on their sleeves.  

If the VFC leader requires undiluted public adulation he should have hesitated before entering the agitation game.  It’s a thick skin that’s required not a thick head.

VFC are using their freedom to express their opinion and that's no crime either, although some people think it is.

Yeah, I can see how saying

Everyone was pleased to win the derby against Birmingham on Sunday

would lead anybody to think that.

Can you imagine the uproar and piss taking on here if VFC came up with the idea of standing in a General Eelection?  Proof that it's not about what VFC do, but the clash of personalities behind the scenes.

Hammer nail head.

Or perhaps it's a realisation that just banging on about ELLIS OUT has been tried and didn't really achieve much as without a viable alternative it's just pissing in the wind.

Better to light a candle than curse the darkness.

I think George Formby wrote that as well.

Read through this thread again.  Actually don't, life's too short.  If there was anything constructive along those lines Chris, you'd have a point, but mostly it's just the Fantastic Four having a dig with their smart arsery.  Fair enough, it's a discussion board after all, but to pretend it's anything other than being petty and vindictive is just wrong.

Just admit it, Fear and good few saddos like him are desperate for Villa to do badly so they can use it as a stick to beat Ellis.

See what I mean Chris?

They want the truth but they can’t handle the truth.  

By the way, isn’t it rather ironic that the very same touchy VFC types who are complaining about long threads concerning VFC’s many shortcomings are the ones that are keeping the threads going?  

I predict a riot.

The only thing the laughable VFC have ever achieved is to make Villa fans look like a bunch of moaning whingeing bastards with chips on their shoulders.
No doubt when Doug does eventually leave they'll consider it some kind of great victory for themselves. It'll have absolutely nothing to do with the fact that the man (Ellis) is well into his eighties or the fact that he has found someone to sell to who can invest in the club long term. Oh no it'll have nothing to do with that, it'll have all to do with their pathetic pound signs and their embarrassing "we have noticed with interest" press releases that they spout out every other week.
and do you know what, half of the tedious tossers don't even go and support the team.
Sad bastards, go and get a life and leave the rest of us to support the club.

I don't know about that, but I'd like to think that Chris Smith, Richard Hubbard and I are the modern day 3 Stooges.
