Wolves are losing to Fulham. I wonder if their fans are turning on the manager and players?!

24 Feb 2018 19:55:50
Ooooooooouch, touch of sarcasm there Flackie.
Wolves fans have in the past mate, just the same as any fans.
United fans wanted rid of Moyes, Liverpool wanted rid of Hodgson, the list goes on.

25 Feb 2018 01:35:52
The list? Two clubs doing poorly under an average manager.
Where any sitting 3rd in their respective leagues? I wonder!

25 Feb 2018 08:56:09
Sarcasm is his middle name, 🤔.

25 Feb 2018 09:05:33
Truth hurts some times bob doesn’t it?

25 Feb 2018 10:15:50
Bruce is the man to get us up just not the man to keep us there and spend the good docs money once there. How long would you guys give him next season if he gets us up. I'd either try and steal rafa off Newcastle and give him money and time proven top manager or get Rodgers out of Celtic and do the same. I've always felt since Rodgers left Liverpool he'd be a future villa manager.

25 Feb 2018 10:22:51
Is this flackie's law where talking about?

25 Feb 2018 10:24:58
I always thought sarcasm in a suit was the sinner man,
Must have got that wrong🙄.

25 Feb 2018 10:29:01
That’s right., let’s get the name of a club that doesn’t stand by those that bring it success. Let’s not even give him a chance!
Also, why would either those you have mentioned come to us?
This is one of the biggest problems with villa fans, delusion of grandeur. Let’s walk before we run.

25 Feb 2018 10:37:40
You ok? That’s only two consecutive posts?

25 Feb 2018 11:52:31
Flackie, In reply to your earlier post, Yes the list mate.
I only named the two clubs just as a playful example to your comment.
United sacked moyes in 7th place in the prem, just outside Europe, and playing in the division we are trying to get into. Furthermore I don’t think you or anyone else for that matter would of classed Moyes as average when United appointed him after the success he had at Everton.
To add to that fans and people wanted a change at Real Madrid and got rid of Del Bosque during the clubs most successful period in modern football.
We are not on our own at Villa it happens abroad as well.
The Banter and having playful digs at people makes for some good fun on this site, and most of the comments made are because we care, and have seen it happen time and time again at Villa park, all those false dawns with players and performances.
Can I say and hold my hand up I do question some of the decisions Bruce makes, after all I am entitled to do that, but I do not class that as getting on the Managers back, I do like Bruce.
If we go up and that is “ If ” I would seriously question Steves ability to keep us there, you need a number of plans to execute at any given time playing at that level, can he do that?

25 Feb 2018 12:10:22
Villadave,

Best post on here for many a while,
You are spot on and agree 100%
It's all about opinions on the team and the manager in question,
We all care for the club and we want the best.

25 Feb 2018 12:14:25
I actually agree with all you say there. with exception of Moyes, I’ve never liked him!
And I apologise if I over reacted to your post, was a build up. I detest thickle fans, that turn after 5 minutes on a performance, and then change like the wind.

To get on players, coaching staff and or managements back before half time is laughable. to then Justify this with ‘I’m allowed I go every match, it’s passion blah blah blah. ’ is an insult. To everyone else.

I’m sure these guys really motivated the team to try and turn the score line around.

25 Feb 2018 12:36:53
Thank you Bob, and thank you Flackie.

25 Feb 2018 13:02:33
Flackie

You just can't leave it alone can you,
Trying to rubbish me for wanting more from my own team,
It it a crime?
You really need to lighten up and take other fans views on merit,
My wife is battling with cancer and I really don't need this now in my life,

25 Feb 2018 13:34:19
I’ve mentioned no names. I’m sorry your wife is poorly, and I seriously hope she pulls through, but I won’t be made to feel guilty for implying I disagree with a view or action.

Talking of letting things go, how’s O’hare? Do you think onamah should be in the team? I don’t know as never seen you comment on either.

25 Feb 2018 13:50:17
I did not say about my wife to make you feel guilty,
I'm not a bloke to do that sort of thing,
On the subject of anomah my views are the same he is useless,
As for o'hare it's clear to me that Bruce does not fancy him,
He is the manager so fans need to accept it,

24 Feb 2018 17:04:55
These are the sort of performances and points that get you promoted, enjoy it boys!

24 Feb 2018 17:34:17
I agree Chris,
I was at the game and our defence in the first half were shocking.
Wednesday went through us at will and caused us major problems,
Never could I see us winning that game 4-2,
But this is a sign of a good team winning when playing poor,
I did not like seeing anomah or Whelan in team,
Give credit to Whelan he did get 1 goal so he earned his selection,

24 Feb 2018 16:54:11
2-4

I was closest with the score.

Those who started to moan again. even 20minutes in need to have a long hard look at them selves.

24 Feb 2018 17:04:40
Amen to that flacks, shut the moaners up again with that win. the people who slated whelan had it rammed home with that header. Spot on with that score line mate.

24 Feb 2018 17:05:51
You was the closest flackie,
But even the honest villa supporter will say we were very lucky ,
Could not see that scoreline anywhere in the match,
But we won and that's all that matters,

24 Feb 2018 17:12:55
I don’t care if we had luck, grit or a new leprechaun sitting on our shoulder.
To moan, slag and call the team after 20 minutes is a disgrace. 1-0 or 5-0 down, there is always time, and unless everyone rows in the same direction, the club will always go off course.
I stand by what I said. SOME should be ashamed.

24 Feb 2018 17:17:02
I believe I said 0-4

And if the cap fits Mainbob, put it on, wear it with pride.

24 Feb 2018 17:41:25
Flackie I was at the game and I was proud of the result,
There are not many more passionate supporters than myself over my 67 yrs supporting them
Yes I will moan when we look crap and I will praise them when they do well.
This is what supporters do,
But I go to as many games as I can home and away and long that may continue till I pass the bucket,

24 Feb 2018 17:54:24
I go home and away, however as said before, I don’t think pointing this out is needed to win an argument.

Booing, moaning, and slagging off manager and or team even before half time is moronic. To try and justify this is laughable.
But you carry on.

24 Feb 2018 18:18:29
In the words of Fun Boy Three "My lips are sealed"

24 Feb 2018 19:11:06
😂😂😂.

24 Feb 2018 16:48:26
Houriane just scored 3 2 to Villa.

24 Feb 2018 16:10:05
Sorry finger trouble meant Onomah.

24 Feb 2018 15:57:49
What is it with Brucie and Weelan . the Sam with Onomah . Thor has played well in the middle and out wide, so why drop him.

24 Feb 2018 16:04:15
I get the Onomah thing but Whelan ent played in weeks so don’t think Bruce has got a thing for him, Onomah gets in the team no matter what.

24 Feb 2018 14:06:48
Can't defend it any longer, if he isn't injured then Callum O'hare not being included is an absolute joke. He wasn't in the team for the U23's a few days ago, Bruce said himself in his press conference he's going to be in the 18 atleast, he's scoring and assisting in the U23's consistently, yet come to today and he isn't on the bench or the first 11 yet Onomah retains his place. That's an absolute farse, he has to be injured.

24 Feb 2018 14:16:57
Whelan back in as well?
Is Hogan injured as well?
A very strange line up.
And if o'hare can't get into squad now with all the injurys he never will unless he has a injury,

24 Feb 2018 14:28:43
Mainbob Hogans playing mate.
Slight change of heart I see chris,

24 Feb 2018 14:34:41
Did not see Hogan on sheet only grabban.

24 Feb 2018 14:36:40
My mistake thank God Hogan is playing.

24 Feb 2018 14:47:13
Chance of a much needed win today, their injury crisis is worse than our own. Hopefully hogan can find the net same goes for grabban. Suprised ohare isn't on the bench, must be injured. so come on you villa let's have it.

24 Feb 2018 14:50:04
I said it after last Tuesday Dave, the way Onomah played he didn’t deserve to make the bench today and O’hare has been performing for the u23’s it’s a joke he isn’t there today, add in the fact Bruce said yesterday he will be and it’s just weird if you ask me. Who have we got off the bench to play attacking midfield or wide to make a difference? I haven’t been on about him all year like mainbob but today he definitely deserved his chance.

24 Feb 2018 14:50:42
And to add to that all the other changes, no Bjarnson? Whelan starting? It’s just odd if you ask me.

24 Feb 2018 15:01:20
I agree chris, only pulling your leg mate.

24 Feb 2018 14:01:18
0-4 villa for me today.
Blow the cobwebs from two poor performances.

24 Feb 2018 14:11:00
Flackie have you seen the team line up!

24 Feb 2018 14:39:43
Flackie if your prediction is correct you are indeed my best mate😉.

23 Feb 2018 22:38:13
Wednesday 1 vs 2 Villa .
