Tell me, honestly, why it matters a jot. because there are two different topics. why don't we just go the whole way and make this a chatroom? Oh shut up, good grief. I merged it, and it wasn't until I had done it how fucked up it looks, sorry. But it barely matters. no you shut up(jeez)...it does matter,saying sorry is canny but it does matter when seperate thread are meged because they come from a linked source......admit you fucked up,shouldn't have done it etc and we'll be on our way. With all the moaning about the merging of the two threads, I have managed to forget what BOTH of them were about. Just a joke, like.

The funniest fight between players I have ever seen happened between two players on the same side. ;-)

Loathe the dirty bluenose potato headed twat though I do, he has got a point. I cant wait for the first top level club to introduce German style pricing. Prices are fucking ridiculous. I've just bought two tickets for us at home to Watford. 63.50 including booking fee. Plus petrol money, plus 6 quid to park, plus something to eat etc etc, that's the best part of 80 quid to watch two teams who do not have a cat in hell's chance of winning the championship or, for that matter, anything this season. Sooner or later more people are going to start to realise that there's no point paying premier prices to watch teams that can not win anything. The big 4 have it all stitched up, the problem is that the other 16 think they can charge mega prices all the same.

The wallowing in it is one thing, but anyone who suggests Hillsborough was the fault of the Liverpool fans is way, way off the mark. Heysel was, yes, Hillsborough wasn't. I guess there's a whole generation of fans now who have grown up with all seater stadia and never known what it was often like in standing days - I've been in loads of situations on packed terraces where I really thought people were going to die. The really surprising thing about Hillsborough is that it didn't happen sooner, tbh. EDIT although, slightly different circumstances, but it did happen before, at Ibrox.

Hughes' main failings ... 1. Every match, without fail, he will drop a clanger which WILL present a goalscoring chance to the opposition. I can't remember the last time this didn't happen. 2. He is at times lazy, I've lost count of how many times I've seen him need to just stick a leg out to clear, and he doesn't. looks suspiciously like he can not be bothered. 3. He stands off his man far, far too much, and when he does put the tackle in, he usually mistimes woefully. 4. When up against any decent player, he invariably gets pulled all over the place. 5. He has no pace. 6. He loses concentration far too frequently. in his defence, he can cross a ball pretty well. He just never gets in a position to be able to do so. It says a lot that MON prefers to play an out of position CB at RB, even when Hughes is fit.

Before I forget, best of luck to you lot tomorrow, I hope you turn that vile rabble over big style.

I fecking hope so, mate, I really do.

£8m wasn't it? Ouch. Decent player but no more than that. Worth about £3m. Excellent for three games, anonymous since.

So, lets get this right, despite all the money spent by Shepherd, the SHITE Doug Ellis has produced a club which is three places better to follow than he has? *insert Mick v NE5 row here*

If something doesn't change soon, then in about 10 games time, I might be tempted to post the words "Stiliyan Petrov" to this thread.

Stefan Moore is Luke Moore's brother. Kingdawson thinks that as Stefan Moore didn't make it, that makes his brother shite as well. No im just saying that villa fans were going on about Steffen being the best thing since slice bread yet he ended up shite and you lot havent apparantly learnt from your mistakes and are now bigging up luke who will probably be sold of to bradford come the beginning of next season. Excellent puerile line of reasoning there. Don't bother replying, you're clearly on a wind-up mission.

i saw him on "Cribs" on MTV once. Lives in a little 3 or 4 bed house that you or I might live in. Drives a Corsa or something. Seriously. very modest bloke, doesn't sound like he'd be a problem around the squad, far from it

Luke Moore is 20 years old, mate, get a grip ffs. You seem to have managed to entirely missed the point. I was pointing out that Defoe is not nearly prolific or not for the money mentioned for him, which has precisely nothing to do with Spurs having better strikers than Villa, or Villa's options up front being shite. Which in turn has nothing to do with Newcastle, so stop your irrelevant whining and leave them to it.

I know our strikers are woeful, you numbskull, i was talking about Defoe not being prolific because we are being linked with him. woeful is an understatement. Tbh Birmingham city have a better batch of strikers then you. Jerome, Bendtner, Mcsheffery, campbell >>>>>>>>>> Baros, sutton, moore and own goal. Mate, telling a Villa fan that we have a striker problem is like telling a Toon fan they're sometimes a bit dodgy at the back. Although you're pushing it to say that Campbell is better than anyone we have. And Moore is an excellent, highly promising player, he's injured. And Bendtner is only on loan from Arsenal.

I know our strikers are woeful, you numbskull, i was talking about Defoe not being prolific because we are being linked with him.

You seem to like the smell of our geordie farts as you are on our message board. Read the post. Not you, the Spurs fan, Kingdawson.

Billions, not millions. And where do you get this from? Did a 12 year old post it on gg? You truly are a fool. If Barry were to leave us at some point, it certainly wouldn't be to the fourth biggest club in London And as for Defoe, you can keep him. Runs around a lot, doesn't score enough. All fart and no shit. Much like your supporters.

Bent is a much, much better player than Crouch. Cliche I know, but it is true, for a big man, Crouch really isn't that good in the air.

Why? Defoe is in form and not injured. Stupid change IMO. Think i agree with you tbh. Other reports are saying that Keane will be off to villa in a swap deal with Barry and Bent will be Keane's replacement. Think i like this deal better. If Spurs fans think Barry will be going anywhere, then they're even more deluded than I imagined. You've got to be joking. We desperately need new players in, and we've got plenty of money, why on earth would be sell our best player, who signed a new 4 year contract 4 months ago? EDIT I see where you've got that now, some numpty on gg posting his fantasy move in reply to you. "Reports" my arse.

Jloyd is, indeed, widely regarded as rubbish by Villa fans. He was woeful last season. Only marginally better than Hughes, in fact, but with a massively overinflated opinion of his own worth. And the reason he isnt getting a game now is nothing to do with contract situations, he has only just got back to fitness after getting injured in the first game of the season. Hopefully MON realises he is gash. Oh, incidentally, on the subject of left backs, Wilfred Bouma has been impressive for us lately. Kept the much vaunted SWP in his pocket all night on Tuesday

Surely one of the Bristol clubs would be a good move. Enormous catchment area, cheap to get hold of.

Surely calling African players "talented but naive" is the oldest cliche in football. See every world cup since 1974 for more evidence.

I just heard on Talksport that you've matched West Ham's offer for SWP. Think it will be irrelevant anyway, as he will stay in London, but i don't get it. Why on earth do you need to spaff 10m on a player for a position you've got someone doing very well in when you've got other areas far more obviously in need of work? And if it turns out to be true, regardless of whether he comes to you, you've got to wonder how Milner's going to feel having done so well this season despite being dicked around in the summer, only to get another slap in the face.

If Milner is leaving, I know where I hope he ends up. I'm personally not sure SWP is a better bet, anyway.
