There will have been a lot of jealousy there from the Villa fans who gloated. I know they were far more successful than us in the 80s etc but we had the whole country talking about us at times in the 90s and 00s while they were a bit of a dull irrelevance.

 

They won the league cup during that time.

 

They also have more PL point than us.  By 40 or so.  A good season and we’ll overtake them. 

You're absolutely right ( you did mean to post that in June 2017 didn't you ?)

So, it it true that their plight is basically Leeds/Pompey on steroids? How does that fit and proper test even work if there were/are such questionable dudes running quite a few clubs all over the place?

 

On second thoughts, that was probably too sarcastic :lol: Name a country where a ton of money and football doesn't result with at least some fans being completely shafted.

So someone buys them, spends a shit load, fails to take them up, then bails leaving the club in ruins? That can’t be right and something needs done because it’s happening all too frequently. I have no beef with Villa and do not like seeing fans shat on regardless of their colours or association. I hope they don’t get fucked over by yet another chancer who thought he could get them up and enjoy the PL gravy train, but it seems that’s what will happen. Disgrace really!

I know you’re taking the piss, but it cours easily happen to any of us, well most clubs anyway. I take no delight in learning Villa could go into admin or end up ruined financially. Fans taking the piss when we went down is no reason to laugh and be happy at their demise, not for me anyway. Fond memories of Villa Park and Brummie has been a great participator of this forum and I have family members from there.

Fans taking the piss out of us is exactly the reason to enjoy their demise. I’ll never forget that day, and it’s the only reason I’m enjoying seeing them suffer. Karma and all that. And sorry, one bloke on a forum doesn’t change my mind.

 

And John Terry.

I just don’t get it. Fans all over complain about increasing costs, commercialisation, bad owners, mercenary players etc. and yet laugh when a club becomes a real victim of this. Each to their own I suppose.

None of those things have anything to do with how their fans behaved that day at Villa Park though.

I would have sympathy if it wasn't Villa. Also unless the club actually goes out of business and ceases to be from the outside it's not quite such a tragedy beyond jobs lost. They'll sink so far and maybe end up better run a few years down the line. Bournemouth and Swansea have been through similar haven't they and come back ultimately stronger even if Swansea are on the down again. Obviously as a fan that can be horrendous and I have every sympathy for most clubs fans, just not ones who have acting like twats (and even then only mildly laughing on an internet forum, I feel sorry for Villa fans I know).

I agree with you mate. Any of the PL clubs that season could have chosen to pic on our club and post pictures of young kids crying and adults. But a majority of Villa fans chose to relish in our misfortune, with no previous history to feel necessary to do so.

 

Retribution is served to those wankers that day. I cant say I care much what happens to them. They will be replaced just like Portsmouth and others that have struggled in the past.
