Fans Worried Over Villa Future

[brian green]

I am worried shitless because I cannot understand Peter's reference to a coma.   Even more worrying is that when I have had it explained to me I shall not be able to think of a witty riposte about hyacinths and comas.

Legion, that was half-hearted. I believe you've been swept along in the current tide of everythings great.

The General has ignored any questions relating to the badge, as he ignores any question that may lead to closer examination of the board and their intentions.

He's made Stepford posters over nearly all of us. What happens when thetake over of the independent fans forum is complete.

H&V was set up to be an independent voice. I presume the forum was set up as the same vehicle but on line. I am enjoyimg everything the board is doing except this one main area.

Any dissenting voice is being ignored by the General, and shouted down by the vast majority. is that what we're all becoming. General/Randy apologists?

The success of 'democracy' depends on the ability to dissent. We had that under Ellis and it would be listened to and arguments given against the dissenting voice. however much we did not like the message. Now? We are ignored at best and there is a strategy of getting all Villa fans behind the board.

Do you really think the General is on Villa websites because he fancies a chat? Or because he wants to bring everyone of us in line. or am I being deluded about their Machievellian designs?

I'm worried that you're becoming a delusional paranoid. :smt002

I am worried about Peter and some of his recent rants. As Del Trotter once said "Calm down, you will give yourself a connery"

I thought we were building up to the old joke about slipping into a coma after eating plant bulbs and then coming out in the spring.

Im worried I'm not going to last the weekend due to working 3pm-midnight Friday/Saturday. Got to be at Camborne for 5.30am Sunday to get coach to Wembley for Truro City vs some welsh team in a cup final. Get back hopefully  around midnight to then drive to Exeter airport for 05.30 Monday morning to fly to Paris for 4 days.
Bet our hotel is in the middle of the riots in Paris! 8-[

I'm not a regular but I was worried about chipping in at the 300 page mark in case I was branded a glory hunter. Now I'm feeling up for a good worry again, the team have gone on this unbeaten run. It's not so much worry at the moment as a bit of mild fretting. Or maybe mithering. Not sure. Certainly a nagging feeling about the badge/branding issue.

[Drummond]

Blimey Dave, that's quite some schedule you've got. Put the B-lose and two's on and you should be fine, and any trouble in Paris - show 'em your badge.

I was a little worried about the inference in Ian's post. I would like to reassure Dave that Ian was not referring to his rusty sheriff's badge in that post.

Well I've now finished my stint in Auckland and I am back in Christchurch. I have also quit my job and am now worried that I have done the right thing (time will tell).  8-[

On the football front I'm worried that there are no games at all on Saturday, so I will not have anything to look forward to this weekend (all games are on Monday morning over here).

Oh, Robbo & Peter, I apologise for my absence over the past few weeks. Good to see you have kept the worried thread going, with help from IanB.

[Hillbilly]

IanB, I assure I am not a dirty gloryhunter!

I have been around for the glory years of worrying. As a boy I worried about getting out of the 3rd division. as a young man I worried through the McNeill glory years of worry. And last but not least, the O'Leary-Ellis axis of worry gave me an ulcer.

My only regret is being too young to remember the tsunami of worry caused by nearly going out of business in the late 60's. Maybe we should have a day of recognition for the great Digbeth Civvy worriers. We salute them!

[D.boy]

You leave my badge out of it.
Not taking my warrant card to Paris. I'm off duty and thats the way it stays unless its a major incident.

[peter w]

The cat of 5 months died to tonight of severe poisoning caused by some poison(?) or botulism eating rotten food?

I'm worried the General is starting a campaign to get at my through loved ones. Kill the bastard cat to make a point first. Then the missus is next...

You can do your worst General..I ain't gonna be quiet for nobody...you're killing my club..Oracle is a Clown...we're going down nxt season... ppppffffzzzzttttssssssqqqqqbbbbbbeeeee

[brian green]

If you are being serious Peter, bad luck with the loss of the cat.   The commonest form of cat poisoning is when they eat a dying rat or mouse which has been poisoned.   Perhaps you are only jesting.

[peter w]

Sadly not. The missus has been distraught all evening. I have had a fine upstanding stiff upper lip however. The bottom one was quivvering like a jelly, mind. Poor little bugger. Thick as pigshit and I always suspected his curiosity and downright thickness would do for him. Just a shame it was so soon.

[brian green]

I expect everybody has told you but the best thing to get over it is to go out and get another little kitten immediately.   It helps if you put a bell on them.  They cannot hunt but it keeps them from getting poisoned in the way I described.
