Yesterday on 5 live Shay Given said that Allison and Ederson are the two best keepers in the premier league by some distance. The level of disrespect towards Emi (and in turn the club) that such a statement reveals is shocking. I just turned off.

All you need to know about Shay Given’s judgement is that he didn’t think we played too badly in the 2015 Cup Final.

Why are you taking this line with me again? I'm not a conspiracy theorist far from it and it's not making me angry so I won't be putting my foot through anything. I'm merely making the point that our treatment by the Sky cartel is disrespectful. This is a Villa forum where we all come to air our views. Simple as that.

Just listening to WM phone in and people are calling in about the total disrespect being shown to Villa in the media so its not just on here and we have every right to feel pissed off about it. The presenter (a wolves fan think) said he was shouting at the radio listening to a sky podcast talking about the PL race. Apparently they were debating about the title being a race between Liverpool Arsenal and Man City and one of them interrupted and said "hold on you should show some respect to SPURS" and we didn't get a mention. I get that for some it's a minor irritation but I'm firmly in the camp that it's a big irritation to me when people show utter disrespect and contempt for my club.
Y'know, I couldn't give a monkey's toss if they aren't including us in their predictions in the title run-in. Under the radar, keep the pressure off, an' all that.

It'll make it all the sweeter if we do upset the apple cart.

I saw him on MOTD a few weeks back and I thought he was quite good but that is just nonsense.

The irony was I finished up in the garden and came in to watch Allison play like a clown !

Plus he thinks it's cool to be named after an Argentine Marxist revolutionary.

Was he the dipshit in goal for us that day? I've erased the game from the mind.

I vaguely recall he had a good first half. Vaguely because I was as pissed as a f*rt and it's just as well that I wasn't sober.

It’s not disrespect from Shay, he seems decent enough, it’s just his opinion which I happen to disagree with.

Still probably the most overrated goalkeeper in Premier League history though.
