Yes I get your reaction - but I suppose you could also argue that Etihad will be grateful for the extra publicity. I don't think having a perv on board will harm them!

Ha ha great analogy

It's funny at one level and I suppose we shouldn't take ourselves too seriously but it does feed that narrative that we all hate. A.lot of the dimwits on social media use these jokes as factual informstion. I know this to be true as I've just wasted hours of my life trying to tell them how...

absolutely agree with all of that - very succinct. Should be required reading for deluded fans of red top clubs who make everyone's life a misery on social.media

These concepts of 'fair value' and 'market value' are totally flawed. You either believe in the market system or you don't. History shows that when governments try to control market prices it always distorts the market and eventually fails. As someone said on here - market value is what anyone...

I have no sympathy for the likes of Harris and Delaney. They have nailed their colours to the mast and must take the consequences. I would never condone physical violence against these people but they cannot complain if our fans make their feelings heard. I don't mind alternative views and...

Red Scouse neighbour one side and blue Scouse the other. Red one is building the adjoining fence higher but it !at not be related to our victory. Blue one has sent text to congratulate just after the game.Two long standing mates - one supports the dark side and the other Cardiff City. Both sent...

I've been to Villa Park a couple of times in the past and never had any problems but when we played them in the League Cup final a couple of years ago they seemed to have transformed into a nasty bunch and I wasn't the only one who said it. I think someone on here said they have all the ugly...

I suppose the infantile reaction from LFC fans was entirely predictable - 'our parade was bigger than yours'! They think it hurts us whereas as always we celebrate our own achievements without any reference to those of other clubs. Will they ever grow up? No need to answer that question!

Seen a lot on FB - but lots of it a bit tacky - depending on what you are looking for. As you say the City website is expensive although the quality is usually good in my experience

Thanks for filling in the detail flb - it makes the Villa fans' actions look even more ridiculous

Excellent advice Ballo - it pretty much sums up the way I feel too.

Everything they have tried has resulted in spectacular failure and as we become more successful our rivals will surely realise they have to try to compete rather than n follow these negative strategies. I think and hope that it will be too late for them. We are becoming a corporate monster...

Ha ha how childish were those cups? From what I remember Chelsea brought loads of them recently. Always seemed ironic to me how vociferous the Villa chants were from a club that has won relatively little over the years!

I hate these comparative analyses - there are so many variables which make them flawed. Added to that I don't care about the Rag version - I'm only interested in ours. I know I will never forget this season and the tremendous achievements we turned in. Having one of our invincible runs in the...

ditto LFC - wonder if the nature of the fan base is an issue with potential owners at LFC - even FSG seem reluctant to take them on. Interesting that both clubs are having such a tough time finding a new owner. Maybe the achievements of days gone by are not enough as well as the need to...

They did a small piece on Radio 4's 'Today' programme this morning. I was delighted to hear Chris Bird being interviewed. The interviewer did the 'tainted' trophies thing and got put down immediately and he argued that the PL had acted in a inappropriate way with the timing of the charges etc...

Thank you my friend

Definitely where we are - it feels great and momentous - but coming from where were makes it even better

It's 1998 and I'm driving back to Derby (where I lived then) from Maine Road where we had lost again - I think it was Bury or Port Vale - can't remember the details. I stopped in a layby before the GMR reception went and listened to Jimmy Wagg talking to James H Reeve. The conversation was very...
