Sorry to see villadave go as myself and others have stated before, after the misery we have suffered last season, you don't want to come on here every day and be dragged down even more . We have a new owner, new management team, some new players ( hopefully more to come ) So I can't understand all the negative, rubbish we keep getting . let's all start looking forward to a new season, with a bit more enthusiasm . Iv seen people on here accused of being Noses, just trying to wind everybody up. I must admit some posts on here, do make you wonder. So come on give them a chance, we haven't even kicked off yet . Onwards &Upwards Villa forever.

Westwood to the brumhaha Wat they going to pay us over 10 years Wat a load of horse sea men πŸ™„πŸ™„πŸ™„πŸ™„πŸ™„.



24 Jul 2016 17:35:46
what on earth have i missed on this page? I've not been on for a few days and suddenly i'm reading we should be sacking RDM,

other then we need a top rate striker and maybe a right back i can't really see what he's doing wrong, but again that's more than likely down to the board than him,

personally i think we should stop worring about new signings and speak with the players we need or want to keep next season such as amavi or ayew and find out if they are staying or going and if they want to stay add a large min realise clause into a contract.



24 Jul 2016 18:39:11
I just think he needs to loose the deadwood from last season use the youth and buy a striker and rb agree with that like I say main thing loose deadwood.



24 Jul 2016 11:58:33
Forgive my pessimism and I'm always behind the team win loose or draw but I gave them players chance after chance last season and look where it got us I'll be behind them. again all season but come on any one with any sense must be honest enough to admit that the current squad isn't good enough for the championship and will finish mid table at best gabby has more cards than goals and needs to go bacuna cost us more goals than any one else lescott was just not interested and Richards gave too many goals away too where as vertout isn't good enough and isn't interested although I like ruddy he to for me isn't good enough we need to loose the named players use Gardner and tshibola in cm ayew mcormack up top green and grellish on wings okore and elphick cb amavi lb and a new rb and have lyden Westwood Hepburn Murphy Davis on bench loose guzan too any thoughts.



24 Jul 2016 12:42:05
On your marks
Get set
And we are off again.



24 Jul 2016 12:47:33
lol there's a big divide on here now aston villa at least we can talk laugh an cry about them like a episodes of Eastenders.



24 Jul 2016 15:19:37
Well I think we will have ago at teams this season and to be fair I don't care about where we finish as long as when I go to watch them I see pride fight there has not been someone there in the team who wanted to get better or better the team just happy to get there wages and throw it up the wall on cars and bites out its about signing players with the right character even if they ent the best on the pitch Leicester have shown this so if you wanna come on here and moan don't bother it's boring heard it for years give it a rest
Up the villa.



24 Jul 2016 11:44:12
Oh well lads, I have decided to call it a day on hear, I didn`t Want to just disappear without saying a big thank you to you all for the fun that's been had over the last few years.
I would like to wish you all the best of luck and health for the future, also all the Eds, this site would would not function without them.
UTV.



{Ed041's Note - why?

24 Jul 2016 11:56:06
Dave don't go. Have a break for week or so.
All this negative posting will pass. We need true villans to stick together.



{Ed041's Note - exactly, transfer windows always send fans into meltdowns.

24 Jul 2016 12:07:09
Hi Ed, I know it might sound a bit odd but I feel the whole thing has become very selective and predictable.
Nothing to do with the Eds I might add, I think you all do a great job.
The only problem I had with an editor was he/ she kept changing what I was trying to say, and what was changed made me sound like some sort of idiot, all forgotten now. (edit if you like)
Thank you Flacks, perhaps I will take time out and just keep reading, but let`s be honest it has become a mess on here, all very boring mate.



{Ed041's Note - ok mate that's up to you. I just silly season always brings repetitive posts and meltdowns. Keep reading mate, I'm sure once the window is closed you van get back to talking about the villa.
Speaking of, what is yours and other opinion of RDM? happy?

24 Jul 2016 12:21:49
Very happy Ed, as I have said before I think he has inherited a very poor squad, and he needs time to stamp his mark on things.
I think given time he could become very popular a VP, there is of course one ingredient that needs to be in place, and that is a little bit of β€œlady luck” without it I think most managers will struggle.
Strikers and creative midfield quality are missing and need to be found ASAP, then I think we can move forward.



{Ed041's Note - hard to disagree with any of that mate.

24 Jul 2016 12:24:59
Personally I am very happy ed.
The whole coaching set up, works well for me!



24 Jul 2016 13:06:52
Sorry to see you going Dave. But, I understand the sentiment
Enjoy the season mate.



24 Jul 2016 13:37:45
I echo that mate .



24 Jul 2016 13:55:36
Thanks guys, take care.
UTV.



24 Jul 2016 15:14:52
Have a kit kat Dave and hope too see your posts soon bud UTV.



24 Jul 2016 17:14:31
hope your back soon dave and I agree with all you have said.



24 Jul 2016 17:52:35
Don't do it Dave just stick wiv us lol looking at these posts can't b as bad as Wat we have seen on the pitch over the last few years
But il put my left nut on the chopping block villa will play well next season providing we get rid of the poison
I think we needed this relegation for the club to move forward instead of struggling in the premier
This is our season we going bak up but with the right people in charge really feel thatπŸ€”.



24 Jul 2016 22:52:21
Just check back in every now and then for a lurk Dave. You might find the site changes for the better.



25 Jul 2016 12:10:12
Dave enjoy the season.
It's been emotional.



25 Jul 2016 18:05:27
Amazing!
An ordinary guy who feels he has to announce that he is leaving.
Normally you have to be important to publish your retirement.
We are all equals on here and will always have posters who disagree with the posts of others but this can't be worth an announcement.
Sorry ego's don't stand with me.



24 Jul 2016 10:57:48
There's definitely at least one ill-disguised Nose on this site. Some way down below, I posted that I hope we're still top of the Championship come May next year - and someone disagreed with it?!



24 Jul 2016 11:11:46
Think there is a few mate.



24 jul 2016 14:07:15
its ok mate as we will not only beat them twice but we will run them all round the town we might be going through a tough spell as a club but we are still years ahead of them. any nose on here use your fingers while u get the chance because aston villa is coming 4 u utv sotc.



24 Jul 2016 09:31:05
Cant beleive some of the posts on here jesus what is wrong with people. glad there not our manager and chairmen . people saying stupid things an making themselves look like idiots . We know it isn't going to easy but i wouldn't slate the team b4 the season starts that's just not normal give the team a chance . people must put stupid posts on like that for a reaction off everyone on here.



24 Jul 2016 10:24:19
I agree mate, it's really grating on me now
I think it might have been Flackie who previously posted that the pointless, brainless moaning was putting him off coming on the site. I'm starting to feel the same
If I want to listen to whingeing just for the sake of itl, there's an old folks home about 1/ 2 a mile down the road.



24 Jul 2016 11:10:55
I'm sure people are posting these things just for a reaction, to see how many comments and disagree ticks they get.
We even had a sack rdm post!

So much pointless negativity, stupid not thought through comments and posts, just makes me angry! Was a time you could come on here, talk to fellow villans, feeling the same emotions and highs and lows, pleasure and pain that you where going through. Now it's just rant, scream and talk crap, get a reaction, then post the same rant, talk the same crap, and scream again in another thread. It's boring.

I don't think for one second we have a Devine right to win this league, to be in the premiership, or to sit at the top table. Actually after the last years, quite the opposite.
You have to earn that, with hard work, and a project, or a plan. That plan has to be sold to the players, both existing and potential signings, they have to agree to it, if they don't either like that plan, or see it working, they leave, or don't sign.
The only way that this blue print works, is for the life blood, the fans, buy in to this plan. Allow it work, give it time for it to gel, and take hold.
Do we as supporters do this? No! We get on their backs after a friendly, a friendly that they didn't concede in, and that they won!

Look at the clubs that this plan works in
Crystal palace
West Ham
Swansea
Leicester
Etc etc

It's not rocket science, it's logic. If you ride the team before they have even started you make them nervous, potential new signings won't want to come. We tie one hand behind their back, and don't let them play. Mistakes come, losses come, promise of promotion goes, crowds drop, money stops, investment dries up.

I love this club, I have done for over 30 years. It's in my blood. I have not missed a home game for nearly 20 years, and go away as much as work allows.

I don't live in brum, and being away you hear what other communities opinions on the area are.
Miserable
Grumpy
Low
Etc etc

For the first time these last few weeks I have to admit, I'm starting to agree!

The villa glass is not half empty, it's half full, and for the first time in a long time, with our help, and duty as fans, it's starting to fill again.
Get on board, do your job, and allow them to try and do theirs.
If you can't, well. In my opinion you are not a true supporter.
We do not have a God given right for success, it's earnt.
You have to endure the bad times, to fully appreciate the good times.



24 Jul 2016 12:33:50
Fair play Flackie πŸ‘πŸ» The crux of all this is Lerner built our hopes up, and let us down badly with his mismanagement at every turn. We're broken and we need fixing, hopefully Dr Tony (& let's be honest, the Chinese government) can put the money into the right areas and we get back in the Prem soon as, then start looking upwards again, I don't expect to win the Prem anytime soon but competing in every game is all we can ask for? I'm looking forward to this season, the last time we went down I was around 16/ 17, 1 of the best seasons ever as a Villa fan, on the pitch after the Bradford game knowing we were promoted, good times, we need some more of that in B6, bring it on!

UTV.



24 Jul 2016 13:42:25
Sadly mate I think the crux of all this is certain people are living our demise, and are trying to force another with total brain dead negativity. Playing the victim and screaming mercy, whilst trying to push the knife in deeper.

It's moronic.
Lerner has gone, we have turned a corner, underlined that period, and the club is trying to restart, move on. Yet a select few won't let it.



24 Jul 2016 09:15:04
Season haven't even started yet sack the manager. why are people moaning about freindlys they are just for fittness an getting the team to gel . wait til season starts we will have a few players in by then people need to be patient rdm hasn't had same time as benitez so give him time he knows what he's doing an the chairmen too . at least we haven't got randy lerner any more.



24 Jul 2016 10:29:17
could not agree more. a lot on here need to wake up when it comes to wanting all done yesterday. it don't work like that unless you want money grabbers who don't care about the shirt.



24 Jul 2016 09:05:49
Who ever said rdm needs to be sacked is a donkey what a weirdo come on an replace him with steve bruce yeah right no chance. class of82 mr know it all you to are insane you too talk aload πŸ’©.



24 Jul 2016 11:00:24

24 Jul 2016 00:39:59
We lose people moan (Acceptable) we win people moan (unacceptable) ITS FRIENDLY GAMES they don't mean jack it's all about fitness and gelling and getting the right formula for God's sake give your heads a bloody wobble.
