So Bent has gone , at least it wasn't a long drawn out affair , and we have time to spend the funds before the window closes .

What you on about ? bent hasnt gone

Bent hasn't gone, there has been no offer from Liverpool

Bent hasn't gone & won't o.O

Really. Watch this space. Dont forget....Downing was defo not going to Liverplop either.

We are now a joke and a laughing stock, time to boycott all games until this joke of a manager and the person board are gone.

Protests dont work and are if i am honest quite rude, a silent Villa Park until we know what the bloody hell is going on at our club, is the only way of getting what we want, we pay the wages without our support the board are stuck.

Vote with your feet and your wallet

Lerner is a fraud

Don't kid yourself, your boycott will achieve nothing.

Stick to team,im not a villa fan but when we were going through the same situation last year with the american clowns so we know how you feel, regarding the bent situation good player but alot of reds dont want him,i would sooner take torres back myself ,anyway best of luck in the last half of the season

Well said L.pool get behind your team come rain or shine. The fickle villa fan up top was probably saying we are a top 6 team after Chelsea. The team were to blame Monday not manager. AVFC will be here long after manager/chairman! UTV

This has to be a wind up doesn't it, I don't rate bent and I'm a Liverpool, does he not miss loads of sitters or do you villa fans think otherwise?

It's a wind up mate. I can't see villa letting him go after waving downing/young away there would be hell to pay with fans. I could be wrong but I just can't see him going just yet.

No its not a wind up, i didnt say i dont rate bent hes a good player ,but spending that sort of money i would rather have podolski,and i think torres could do a job for the reds again ,

The fickle Villa fan is probably sick of watching such bad football, from a manager who has an appalling record.

I would not mind if we lost but played well and i am not bothered by where he came from either, the club is a joke from top to bottom. Randy Lerner is a fraud just look at the Cleveland brown forums to prove it

As much as I hate Torres for how he left the club, he was lied to by the old owners and and this new phase with the club was all to little to late, he just wanted to win something before he gets too old, I would have him back just like the good old days.

So the whole clubs a joke from top to bottom so does that mean we should not support the team? Randys a joke but take him away and what? A sheikh, its not going to happen.

No we were promised CL football, it has not happened, the football is carp. All the money he has put into the club is a loan with a massive amount of interest on top of it.

The man is a parasite, take your head out of your .... and smell the roses

Thats your opinion but you Diddnt answer my question. Take him away and what? If he never came in would of we pushed for CL and finished top 6? I think not. Get real! He wants to run the club as a business by not making a loss which in the long run is far better than your fantasy

What is my fantasy i have not at any point stated who or what i wantto takeover the club. RL made a promise he has not lived upto that promise. In all other forms of business this would lead to a resignation. MON over spent but Lerner let him. Read my posts properly before you jump to weird conclusions

As you know the game is all about money and who's got the most. Things changed we can't compete with the likes of man city. We had a good couple of seasons when he came in but if he never I doubt we would of had the with Ellis. Lerner has improved the whole infrastructure of the club.

I have not stated otherwise, i have simply said based on some of the decisions he has made the club is now suffering, allowing Habib Beye 40k a week, Warnock is on 60k a week, heskey 60k plus addons and then allowing them to sit on the bench. Lerner has also taken on a manager who has left fans disgruntled. bringing in AM has put immense pressure on the club to succeed. We did not need to do this, if i am honest enough i actually believe lerners biggest mistake was the hiring of Paul Faulkner, i cannot ctisize everything he does, but since he has been at the club the anti lerner campaign has grown. I have not seen anyone post In lerner we trust in a long time, not even yourself could manage that one

Those signings you mention were down to MON and Lerner had confidence in him at the time so he can't be blamed. I agree about Faulkner he is a problem and that is down to Lerner. My ideal situation is Faulkner and mccleish take a helicopter ride on a dark windy night and you can make the rest up yourself. But... We need randy $
