Our softly softly long game approach is now reaping dividends. The CAS ruling was the game changer. I'm convinced that City have drip fed damning financial information on our rivals to UEFA and we're now seeing the cartel beginning to crumble.FFP had one purpose, stop Manchester City, it failed. The owners and management at City were ahead of the curve and have set the blueprint on how to buy and manage a football club. The Rags and now Barcelona and Madrid have now fallen foul of the regulations they dreamt up to protect their cartel. The future is blue.
Bellends. Remember them giving Delph dogs abuse when we went there in the league. Mouthing off about our empty seats and how they’re a bigger club. Went back in the cup and there were about 18 villa fans thereA Villa fan friend of mine keeps saying it’s only a matter of time before we are relegated. Keep dreaming bozo!
Get them knobheads fined
This comment gladdens my heart and lifts my soul.Is this now the end of the G14 cartel? UEFA seems to have grown a set of balls, I think that this is their payback for the breakaway league that they were desperate for. I think we've won.
Better : )Pack of cunts
What's changed at UEFA ?
Seems odd that the cartel clubs are beginning to be fined
Ok the fines are small but perhaps the beginning
Did FFP get involved when Scudamore was handed £12 million by the EFL on his retirement?
When fans of certain clubs bang on about history, their definition of history is trophies won.Horrible dirge "you'll never sing that". Really shit song. And the crap sides they beat to get it. Was annoying, one of the best things about the treble is shutting Villa fans up. The dismissal of our long history as though we only existed since our current owners was just a crap wind up. They knew it, and they will no doubt move onto something else. Weirdly one of the most offended by our success fan groups.
Sorry for straying off-topic, but it’s a bit quiet on this one….When fans of certain clubs bang on about history, their definition of history is trophies won.
Based on this definition, most of Villa's history pre dates World War One.
If you can tolerate the annoying American accent and the gee whizz narration, by the end of the video you'll realise the Premier League might have patience and deep pockets, but in the scheme of things they're small fry and they'll lose....
No thanks, it's all part of the game's rich development. At any point you can only beat what's in front of you. Debate the differences between eras as much as you like but I think imposing hindsight judgments to devalue earlier achievements is a step too far.Sorry for straying off-topic, but it’s a bit quiet on this one….
It’s a tempting thought to have a reset of football “trophies won” data and records. A bit like where we have History and PreHistory. The game today is nothing like it was 50 years ago muddy pitches, heavy ball etc. When Haaland was breaking records, no way would he catch Dixie Dean when he’s being subbed after 60 minutes. Completely different game now.
“Post-War” maybe. Or dare I say Premier League or even 21st Century.
When you look at all those FA Cups won by The Wanderers or Old Etonians, even Royal Engineers I mean wtf !
And staying in your stray-off, I REALLY hope that we don't join in the "You'll never sing that" nonsense that was thrown at us repeatedly. We should be much better than that!Sorry for straying off-topic, but it’s a bit quiet on this one….
