Let's see how you all feel closer to Christmas about all things Villa. I've just got this gut feeling something isn't right behind the scenes.

What are the three things you most love about the Villa, Fred, and your top 3 away day memories?

I get those, I find a bar of dairy milk usually sets things in motion.

Because they haven't made a statement for a purpose that you aren't able to actually specify?   Purslow left, we got new people in, the end.

The thing that isn't right is the unfortunate circumstances of losing 2 key members of the team in a week, not some shadowy unknowable nonsense that you're predicting for a completely unknown reason.
Us losing on Saturday has nothing to do with a new CEO making as many statements as you'd like.

If you are able to actually articulate what you think is going on, and in relation to what exactly it might help. Otherwise, just seems like you're moaning as usual

We've had a bad bad week . I think the other bits that have irked a few are the huge ticket price hikes and Terrace View .
If we can go on a winning streak now - Everton / Hibs / Burnley / Hibs i think things will look far rosier again

So, are you asking for a statement or a winning streak?  Are both likely to shut people up?

History
Tradition
Villa Park

Narrowing it down to Away Days is a bit ridiculous as there's plenty of 'Home only' fans for various reasons including financial . But I've indeed done plenty . In fact I done almost every away in the championship

Highlights of 'all time'

The last season at Highbury -lovely stadium

Reading Away in the championship -first away win in what seemed years, great atmosphere that night

Blues Away - various wins -

There will have been more glamorous ones but those stick out

We need an official interview and statement from whoever replaced Christian and a few wins

Almost nobody will ever be happy with price increases, but as stated elsewhere it's an unfortunate part of the game now, and understandably thinking the terrace view is a shit idea - but this idea that something is wrong behind the scenes is fantastical nonsense

A statement about what though, and why? What is this strange obsession with a statement. Also Purslow going, we changed the structure slightly at the top didn't we, so there's not necessarily a direct replacement anyway.

But again, a statement about what exactly?

This has that weird chronically online energy usually reserved for fandoms on twitter.

I'm not asking for a statement. Just saying a few wins and the general mood will improve instantly . We've probably been through the worst week since the days of Gerrard this last week so we all need a lift

He wants Heck to investigate the mods on here who have obviously deleted his "joyful" posts like the one he posted after we beat Brighton.

It wouldn't surprise me if that happened to suit certain narratives.
