Now I do not want to stir the pot here but C.S and Drummond are noticeable by their absence over the last couple of days. My question is have they turned?


Drummond hasn't been around much lately, I think he got pissed off with all the shit stirring. I've been busy so haven't been able to post much before today but then I don't bother much with this thread because it's now just a parody of what it once was.

My view hasn't changed; I said months ago that I'd give things until the end of the season although with only two games remaing I've pretty much decided.

Yes your stats are well and truly depressing Peter. We can't even dominate at home against a team who haven't scored away from home in ages. We sink any lower and we will be able to play our home games on the decks of the Titanic.

I'm soooo looking forward to out trip to Anfield this weekend.

Actually to be honest, I'm very pleased I have a race on Sunday morning, to take my mind off it.

I'm eagerly awaiting the game on Saturday. I have been ever since we lost at home on Tuesday. Nothing to do with confidence, or the love of watching the Villa, but more that I want the games to come around thick and fast so that we can get to safety. I don' think anyone is confident of anything but this going to the final day.

I don't think Wigan will win at home to Portsmouth. It'll be 1-1, or 1-2. At the moment I'll take the draw and let the Shit and Portsmouth fight it out amongst themselves on the last day. Howevre, if we can keep the defeat down to a 1, or 2 goal margin, as unlikely a scenario as that is. Then I'll take a Portsmouth win, and hopefully that will be enough to keep us up.

This time last season we were discussing whether to start with Agbonlahor at Anfield as it was the last game, whether DJ x2 should play. Not sure if people remember. We expected to give the prospective European CupWinners a decent game. We did in parts. 2-1 and looked okay. This season, in a measure of how much we've dropped off the pace, we are all seemingly looking for a 1 or -0 defeat. Disgraceful. ANYONE, who thinks that that is the result of Ellis's tenure is deluding themself. We have gone this way because of O Leary and Aitken.

We could be positive and say that if we had finished a respectable but mediocre twelth to fourteenth we would have nothing to worry about but we would still have Oleary next year. So this is the question as we are now with the worry still over us but Oleary almost certainly gone or no worries but Oleary here next year. Your choice.

Obviously the former. because the longer we have the clueless one in charge the worse we will become. Therefore, we are only delaying the worry. We need to be worried now and still be with a chance of being in the Prem. Rather than being worried and being in the Shit's or the A lbion's position. Which, if O Leary is still here next year, we are likely to be faced with.

Let's have the wory now when we can do something about it, and when the next manager has a chance to save the team and turn around its fortunes.

Phew,  8-[ at least we are safe for this season.
Now it's time to get the prayer mats out and hope for a new owner  [-o< a new manager  =D> and some new players.  \:D/

If nothing changes before the start of next season then I will be more than worried about our future.

If it were a Conservative smoking crack it would be "Tory Sleeze". If one of Blair's cronies was caught doing it it's a "Private Matter".

I am very worried that Ellis may still be with us for the forseeable future.
I think this weeks programme will say that he has decided to stay on for the benefit of the club and all HIS loyal supporters.

No please not.
Hopefully HDE will say that he has agreed to sell the Club and announce that we have a great new owner, who is investing 30 million into the club for new players for next season.   \:D/
More likely will be that he will say he will be stepping down and his Son will be taking over the reins (but we will all know who will still be in control), until a new owner has been found.  ](*,)

Magnificent, a son who has admitted he has no interest in Aston Villa will be the standard bearer of the club.

Well thank God that's all over. The Shit have gone down.  \:D/  

Except it doesn't feel how I thought it would. I can see too many similarities between the way the team/club turned into a shambles in the mid 80's for me to care just that our rivals have gone down. If we were to go next season, we would not be back for a while. The whole place needs restructuring. The club the size of Aston Villa FC are being run like a family cornershop, or how you would expect Alvechurch to be run. nepotism over professionalism seems to be the mainstay of the boardroom.

Big, big changes are needed unless we want to go into the next campaign staring at 9 months of inevitability.

That's whats worrying, if reports are to be believed and Curbishly gets the Viila job it puts an end to any takeover for the forseeable future. If there were potential owners out there then no way would Ellis be involved in appointing another manager. Curbishly would suit doug down to the ground needs very little money to keep us mid table.
