I fear we may have drifted slightly off-topic...


....which has never happened before.


Would someone care to check back and see how many times the subject has been changed? Bags not.

I would hazard a guess at 30...

Lost amongst our many changes, I'm afraid. We could always ask the perpetrator to re-record it.


We could have a tribute thread?


This is not the greatest thread in the world.
No, no. This is just a tribute.

Yes, but we're in the 80's, just a few good boundaries from a memorable century.

It's become too self conscious, it's turning into a thread about a thread.

Would you say the thread was inconsistent?

No, it's just not as good as it should be.

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

Personally, no.

This thread has as much get up and go in it as it had 30 pages ago.  In fact it's still covering all possible areas of interest, and refuses to let other threads have any new topics, preferring to keep all possible topics under it's direct influence.

It seems to me that one or two troublemakers and egotists are looking to set up a pressure group to get this thread to close.

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

Not enough, there is plenty of life in this thread yet. I would think this will be quoted alongside official govt figures at the end of the year.

Alcohol caused 3.6 million lost working days in the last year, smoking was even worse (although that bloody ban certainly reduced it) and that in turn was second only to that thread on H+V which caused an awful lot more!

Like the Windmill, it will never close.
