There will come a time when the rags are cut adrift by the media and left to sink.If we had broken FFP like the Rags it would have been party time in the media ,a never ending vitriol and no smoke without fire avalanche of bullshit and innuendo.
The Rags fail FFP and its a minor misunderstanding , UEFA representative David Gill confirmed the news.
Thank you. As someone that was born in 1981, I dislike the notion that it’s nearly 50 years ago.You know it’s not 2032?
What they going to sing at ours now we've took their only song away?Deluded Villa
Great post.
They last won the top flight nearly half a century ago in 1981.
Before that it was more than half century ago in 1910, the same year the rags ( who had copied the Manchester name in 1902) and then cleared off out of town where they have dwelled on the outskirts ever since.
Back to deluded Villa, other than their only 2 top flight league wins in the last century, they won a few in the previous century to that when players wore hob nail boots.
Deluded indeed !
Even in their heyday, before World War 1, Villa's attendances were not that good. In 1911, after they had won ten major trophies in 17 seasons, they averaged 22,705. That season City, who had won just one trophy in the same period, and even been relegated a few times, averaged 24,995. Their club is a bit of an ancient myth really.Working in Birmingham this is a point I've often made. Our average attendance was also bigger the year they won the European Cuo (yes, apparently they've won it, who knew!)

Someone at the Sun is getting his P45 imminentlyWhy did that say Apple News and then immediately took me to an article from the The Sun!?!
No clicks for that rag.......
No. But it is factual.You didn’t post that though did you?
But the fee has been widely reported as £105m. Rice is the most expensive English player ever now. Not Grealish. So why not report it that way?
62.It is - you're 60.
I know.
