Fans Worried Over Villa Future

[Simon Page]

Nah. I give you my guarantee that we won't go down. Admitedly my guarantees are as dodgy as those given by builders who offer to do your driveway, but I give it anyway. That's yours to keep. Gratis.

I am thinking of investing in incontinence pants for when any takeover actually happens. I reckon within a couple of hours I could retire on the proceeds.

[Simon Page]

And whaddaya know, I'm off the mark.

You're not one of these cowboys who will piss off after all these assurances, guarantees, etc and then never respond when it all goes pear shaped and I can get in touch with you. Are you?

[Sir Ashlyn Gere]

I might be accused of being unduly pessimistic (Villa fan?, never!)
But aren't we at the same stage as the previous failed Ranson bids so far, ie a 'preliminary enquiry' has been made.

Lets make sure Mr Aston Villa has well and truly left the building before either (a) predicting when the new mob will hit choppy waters;
      Or (b) donning party hats and cracking out the champaigne, which is exactly what I''ll be doing when his Rolls leaves the carpark for the last time.

As an aside, would it be enough if he was no longer officially in charge but still associated with the club in some capacity? Or is it only enough if HDE is completely out of the picture?

Well I'm starting an 'Ellis Must Stay Until Villa Are Safe From Any Chance Of Relegation' Pressure Groups. For ease, as that's an obvious mouthful, we'll be called EMSUVASFACOR. I'll release my first press release soon. Something along the lines of

EMSUVASFACOR note with disinterest the news that Hearts are losing everyone in their management section. However, we're different. As the spokesman for this united band of brothers that is EMSUVASFACOR I strongly urge that Ellis must stay until Villa are safe from any chance of relegation. We have many tactics  in order to help us achieve this aim. At AGM's we're going to flounce in 10 minutes before the end and complain that are questions to Mr Ellis have been answered satisfactorily. I wish it to be known that I do believe I speak on the fans behalf, and yes my love of the club does come first. I'm sorry but this is definitely not a democratic group as its my baby. EMSUVASFACOR are here to stay and to hound you to stay in office Ellis, you chairman for a bit longer yet,you.

Bit like Nick Leeson and Berrings Bank, I'm just propping this thing up a little bit more. Can't allow it to drop too much.

I note with not a little interest that the VFC have not commented on team affairs, surely they want to tell the world how shit they think we are too?

[kipeye]

Bloody well hurry up and get to a hundred [-o<

Just a little something to help you on your way.

I've heard much dodgier people than you use lines like that before.

Remember kids, Just Say No.

Whos whoa whoa there! I could quite easily dance down the track looking for the attractive way to get to my ton a la Freddie Flintoff, but if I were to swing and miss, and maybe get myself out then what?

The scorn that I would have to endure would be too much. I've been obdurate during the nervous 90's and see no reason to change ploy.....

Hold on, is that you LG? Have you come back to bowl me a googly...

See nearly went down the track there but thats it .Time for a few more defensive blocks. Just a 4 away now...

[Drummond]

pushed down the leg side for a quick single.

[peter w]

Back in the-ahem- real world...

I see Ashley Judd is the first of the cricket lot to go down with the shits....never mind son, happens to us all.

[McD]

Bollocks...what a load of bollocks...
Oh, sorry, is this not last nights match thread...
