I don't understand how you can get it right and then undo it twice. Was the 'their' the actual typo? :lol:

 

I don't understand how anyone still gets it wrong in the first place.  Don't they teach this in school anymore?  It's really, really basic English.

If I proof read I notice mistakes and change them, but i'm not doing that for every post I put on here like :lol:

 

Then leave.

Will Leicester start a trend of teams trying to win without the ball? We've seen lots of teams trying to copy the Bayern/Barca method of possession based winning, but both Leicester and Athletico Madrid have shown you can be just as if not more effective without the ball than with it.

 

When Chelsea first got their money, everyone tried to copy them for a few years (and still are to a certain extent).

 

Is this just a trend, or how successful teams will set up in future?

Didn't happen when Atleti won the league and went to the CL final.  Much like gegenpressing I reckon it's too much effort for 90% of footballers.

They were dicks that day and it was totally unjustified, but I have nothing but sympathy for genuine AV fans (and other clubs who are being ruined by wankers) and simply cannot hate them due to our own Brummie who is one of the best posters on here full stop, the fact it was my first away day and that I work there quite a lot.

 

By the way, I work all over England, Scotland and Wales, I'm probably on the road at least 4 days a week and in the main most footy fans consider us a big club with great fans etc. Yet weirdly say Ashley has done good for us as we are well run financially. The same people also say we should have either kept Big Sam or Pardew. Ignorance is bliss?!

 

The internet brigade of fans in general although typically knowledgeable, can be very troll like and because of social media its easier to act the bollocks. In short if you take the web at face value we are a laughing stock, arrogant, deluded and not really a big a club.

 

In the real world, however, its a totally different picture.

 

I always get the "its such a shame Newcastle are down there because yous are a big club, great fans and Newcastle is a great City" type of response in general.

 

London is the worst when it comes to cliches, we are deluded, KK was a failure, a quitter and we deserve to go down for hounding out Allardyce and Pardew.

 

Chelsea fans in particular.

 

Yet when I lay into them for the way they basically hounded Rafa, someone who won them trophies, they are all like "He's a fat cunt, said nasty stuff about us, is a Liverpool man"

 

Spoiled bastards the lot of them.

 

So now I'm generalising....

It's not a full stand, is it? Just the upper tier.

 

We do it when we can't sell out games against European tinpot clubs.

 

Never done it for a league game though, not even in the Championship and our ground has 10,000 more seats to fill than theirs.

Plymouth :lol:

 

I don't understand the ongoing hatred for Villa. I bear a footballing grudge longer than anyone but we beat them 6-0 on the first day back. That was more than enough satisfaction to draw a line under it, and I say that as someone who was at Villa Park. It's not like we were cheated or hard done by - "football fans in 'taking piss' shocker"

 

Prefer to focus my hatred on the people responsible for that relegation (and more than likely this one too).

 

That whole thing, really, I don't get it. It's all a bit 'big deal', surely?

 

The time to get annoyed is when you go down and nobody bats an eyelid - like Albion or Sunderland, for example.

 

Anyway, you've got the perfect chance to take the piss back coming up pretty soon. I fully expect you to take it and will be amazed if you don't.

 

Schadenfreude, it is one of the building blocks of football, surely?

Are Villa closing a full stand next season Brummie ?

Never had a good experience with Villa fans or Birmingham fans. When I had a season ticket I saw some Birmingham fans trying to figure out where they needed to go, I offered help but I just got told to fuck off. On holiday one time there was a few lads from Birmingham (both Villa and Birmingham fans), mouthy pieces of shit, trying to give it the big I am. I played football with them once and this fucking giant gangly thing (I honestly thought it was Peter Crouch) went over the top to shoulder barge me right into the 5 aside fencing, later in the match I shoulder barged him and and he was asking what the hell I was doing like a fanny who can dish it out and can't take it.

People from Birmingham have a chip on their shoulder, maybe it's because they come from a city thats full of concrete monstrosities and have a depressing voice that makes them sound as though they need either a box of Prozac, or some fucking razor blades.

 

You're basing that on:

 

1. Some Small Heath knuckledraggers swore at you.

2. Some Brummies annoyed you on holiday.

3. Someone shoulder barged you during a match.

 

I'm from Birmingham, and I not only do not have a regional accent, I don't have a chip on my shoulder, either.

 

Your post is a bit like people seeing that photo of the Newcastle fan twatting that horse and saying "Fuck me, Geordies, they're all insane, I saw one twat a horse once. Well, it was in the paper, like. They're all horsetwatters, honestly"

 

Seriously, what rubbish.

 

I was coming out of a Newcastle - Villa match at your place in the late 80s, there was a bit of trouble, and one of your fans stuck a house brick in my mate's sister's face from point blank range.

 

Did I spend years blathering on about how Geordies brick girls? No, I didn't, because I realised it was about one fucking twat, and fucking twats are fucking twats, wherever they're from. And they're everywhere.

No, they're closing the upper of three tiers of the Trinity Road stand. Holds 3,500.

 

We're absolutely embracing the descent into the championship and taking every opportunity to be small time.

 

Lerner has fucking lost it.

 

He's gone Kin Jong Un / Il on us.

 

Properly, properly out of control.
