Fuck me John.


Just how many netiquette rules are you going to break?


Hang on, you just accused me of spying on personal messages.  Yet all you chose to do is comment on my outrage.  I think that speaks volumes about what you hope to achieve from this thread

Am I the only person who doesn't give a toss what Jon Fear is referred to as in the media?

My life more or less carries on as normal, regardless...

I do know I would be happy for Jon Fear - if it is he- to not allow journalists to state that he is a spokesman of Villa fans. Heoesn't. I don't like that personally.


He IS a spokesman of Villa fans, just not ALL Villa fans.  I imagine the only people unhappy with the fact that he doesn't ask every journalist to sign a legally binding document stating that he won't be referred to as "Fans' Chief" are half a dozen people on here.


And that's the misleading bit. It only takes a few seconds to point out that he's only the spokesman for VFC not all Villa fans. Just a tiny minority. Is there a reason why he wouldn't do it? Its because it would damage the reputation of VFC. So, he is happy to allow the misrepresentation to continue. Understandable if VFC had a clear policy of how they will remove Ellis from office.They don't. They need to have a rethink. Not sayingthey have to disband, but surely its time to realise that tired old statements are no longer having an effect. So, lets try and push this forward. What do we , as Villa fans, think should be done to further the aims we all have, and that is the best for Aston Villa.

This is about personalities.

What's good for VFC has to be good for the Trust too. Just so that when the Trust speak to the media we all know just how many they are speaking for.


You're being deliberately obtuse aren't you.

That just about sums you up. Your life revolves so much around the internet that you're unable to work out the difference between reality and that little screen you're forever looking at.

In the big world outside you're being laughed at, but why should you care as long as you're happy that we're breaking your self-imposed rules.

Did you know that most Villa fans would not even know what any of you are talking about.

Getting all hot under the collar about nothing, that means nothing and is very boring.

The first rule of H&V is - you do not talk about H&V. The second rule of H&V is - you DO NOT talk about H&V. Third rule of H&V, someone yells Stop!, goes limp, taps out, the thread carries on for another 100 pages. Fourth rule, only twelve guys to a thread. Fifth rule, one thread at a time, fellas. Sixth rule, no misplaced apostrophes, no long links. Seventh rule, threads will go on as long as they have to. And the eighth and final rule, if this is your first VFC thread at H&V, you have to use the phrase "Judean People's Front" from Monty Python.

We might have lost "some good posters" but we also lost an offensive, idiotic, pedantic clown named Mooney, so there was some compensation.
