But now it looks like I'm trying to ruin all his hard work.

Oh well. C'est la vie.

Tish and pish. You just don't get it. The love of this thread is what keeps us worriers going. Not who gets to the landmarks, but that we all get there. Now, I realise you'll all be back after me JD, Robbo, and sometimes Legion, get back to some proper worrying over the next 49 pages or so.

Bastard. I wanted to piss off Pete!


As long as you don't want to piss on Peter.

Enough of the pissing already. That's saved for my drunken antics on the Off topic forum.

I'm worried that Laursen and Ridgewell might be run ragged by Defoe and Berbatov.

Us regulars to this thread stood back and watched you little boys wet your pants over who was going to get the 250. We don't really care, we are here for the long haul.  [-(  Bloody glory hunters.  #-o   :-

I wonder if enthusiasm will ever wane in this thread.

Never Drummond. We will keep going until at least 1,000 pages have been reached. Then I might retire from the thread (or maybe not).  8-[

Some people still don't get it. This thread is primarily for discourse among the distance disadvantaged Villa supporters alienated by distance and time. It is our home base, yes we may disappear from time to time when other duties call but it is our first point of reference when we return. We can chatter away about any subject we like without any interference to other threads at a time when the large majority of posters are either rooting or sleeping. We welcome all visitors as long as they are mindful of where they are and their minute contribution to this great epic.

You hit the nail on the head Robbo.

How is sunny Melbourne? Hope it is nicer than here in NZ, where after getting into 20c+ over the past couple of weeks, Winter kicked back in this week, with lots of rain and 140kph winds.

We have just had the warmest September on record and it reached 30 degrees yesterday. Overcast today but still warm, water restrictions are being upgraded so it looks like I might have to get a water tank installed to keep the garden alive, and we are nowhere near summer yet.

Nearly 7 hours its taken me to log in! Sorry Robbo, JD, was trying to engage you both in nightcrawler chat but couldn't ](*,) . Thanks to Martin though I've successfully avoided deleting the internet and found what these 'cookie' things are, deleted them, and I'm back. Very odd that it didn't affect me until today. I've had to work all day! Cheers Martin. JD, Robbo, we'll chat tomorrow! Oh, and Robbo, 'rooting'? Haven't heard that term for love-making for a while. Sounds kinda dirty.

I'm worried whether I'll be able to capture my past ability on a football pitch, as I play my first game in absolutely ages later on.


The legs have gone. Which at 20 is a sad thing indeed.

Isn't that what players with absolutely no ability use as an excuse?  :smt002
