Nice to see Tim Sherwood doing our game today, read a couple of articles from him since he's left and he speaks sense, seems to fully understand what Villas problems are.
Many didn't like him by the time he got sacked, maybe he was a little bit arrogant at times, but he's got more passion than anyone we've had at the club for probably ten years. Shame it'll never happen but I'd love to have him back in some capacity, ideally working with the kids.

Would have been nice to put something in his contract similar to what QPR did with Chris Ramsey. Would have been nice to see him return in some capacity.


2.) 17 Jan 2016 19:23:32
I'd have liked him to have still been in charge honestly. I'd rather have a leader who shows he cares, he deserved more time.

Professional people on THOUSANDS per week don't know whether they are allowed to shoot? This is laughable. The team should be able to organise and play matches WITHOUT A MANAGER?

Total agreement that this is far from satisfactory and I also admit that I have serious doubts about Sherwood, (a few half decent potential signings aside and a few games last season he has been unsuccessful in everything else) but at the same time. I am pretty fed up of millionaires strolling about and doing nothing and then its all the managers fault.

Players never seem to take ANY responsibility for anything. Even when they're naughty off the pitch they are protected as much as possible. Why did Sherwood pinpoint Grealish to change his off the field antics yet not raise anything about Gabby?

I honestly believe that if the rules changed and clubs started to sack players for poor performances in the same way they do managers the whole game would dramatically change for the better.

Some of TS decisions and substitutions have certainly been questionable and he definitely should carry a portion of the blame, but by no means all of it. Randy Lerner is one of the biggest culprits but there are MANY. He's spent some of his inheritance sure and i have given him credit for this in the past, but his reluctance to be involved day to day and his "shyness" to answer any questions posed by the pathetic media or the loyal supports is a shameful reminder of exactly how much he cares. But there are others.

I blame GABBY just as much as I blame any of the previous managers. One of the top earners and supposed Villa fan yet struggles to score 5 goals a season for the club he loves so much? Same as I place blame on the heads of the coaching and medical staff that have been there for sometime (Cowans in particular) how many long term injuries have we had over the last 10 years, how many have occurred in training and then how many have been delayed and delayed in their returns, the numbers are staggering.

If you look at anyone that has got a connection to the club (past player or so-called supporter) that has a job within the club and how they can bare to watch what is happening, but the truth is they're getting paid a fortune to be part of it. And anyone who does say anything, or points out any of the obvious flaws is booted out, from disgruntled fans with signs and banners, to coaches, two assistants, Ian Taylor anyone who got in the way.

I feel like I could go on and on, ripping this club I have devoted over 25 years of my life to, to shreds but for what gain? The only person suffering is me, my kids and the rest of the supporters.

Is Randy Lerner suffering? Is Prince William?, David Cameron? Gabby Agbonlahor? Tom Hanks? Tim Sherwood? I don't think so.

The biggest and saddest reality of all is that Us MUGS are PAYING A FORTUNE in hard earned cash, emotion and misfortune to be part of this!

Wow. Impassioned Post and unsurprising given the circumstances. I cannot disagree with the sentiment, but I have to ask, what is so different this season compared to those recently gone by that has inspired such passion amongst the Villa faithful? Perhaps the unprecedented signing of 11 new players with, at least, the promise of better things? My interest in the club is different. My Avatar on this site is my great-uncle who was Villa Vice Chairman from 1900-1910 when he inconsiderately died about 100 years too early to hand over the reins to me and hence secure a great future for the club  For me, if we ended up in the Conference, I would still be a Villa fan because it’s not about the success of the club compared to others (BCFC aside obviously) it’s about loving the club, it’s history, and everything it stands for. It’s not even about geography – many on this site are either ex-pat Villains in some way or another, or are too far away to make the expensive trip regularly. I’m from south of the City Centre so, by nature, would be supporting … oh no, it’s not even worth considering. No-one here would consider switching allegiances to any other club. We know some parents of new-borns sometimes take time out from regular attendance on The Holt every other Saturday to attend to newly-prioritized child-minding duties, but even that never lasts longer than a few weeks .
My point is that, whist many of us have been supporting the club for over 55 years (OK, maybe just me then), apart from a couple of ‘glory days’ in the early 80’s, it’s never been easy. Before the 1st Division title and European Cup, we’d been dining-out on the historic FA Cup victories for years. Maybe none of us will ever die happy as Villa supporters – it’s just a big part of our seasonal Saturdays and cup matches – hopefully we’ll all die a lot happier from other victories in our lives – God knows we deserve it.


2.) 03 Oct 2015 20:12:31
Thanks for your interesting reply, and I must say I do agree with your points about it never really being that great or easy but yet here we all are none the less and still 10 years down the line many of us will still be here begging for success.

All my family are originally from down south, in fact I was actually born in Hove but we moved up to Redditch when I was still only a few weeks old, so i'm actually alone in supporting Villa (except for my mrs and my kids) all my other family support Brighton.

To answer your question directly as best I can, I think you're right in this season starting with some new found 'optimism' which has only lasted about 3 games into the season and is pretty much already dead.
I think there are a number of reasons for this.
Staying up last season is a big factor.
Sherwood being the manager and not Lambert is another big one for a lot of fans.
The entire squad overhaul from getting rid of some of the deadwood to bringing in some highly rated young overseas talent.
I think also the takeover rumours and possible sale played a factor in many supporters having some more 'belief' this season and now feeling even further let down because of it.
I think a lot of people genuinely believed that the funds being allocated to sign the players were coming from some unknown source who was about to takeover the club and save us all. and when that fire eventually got stamped out, the belief did not die but instead just changed to a more "Randy is investing, he must give a toss again" attitude which didn't last all that long either.

The truth is our net spend was pretty pathetic in comparison to the teams in the league especially those we would consider our main threats. And where as I do agree that money doesn't buy everything and you cannot simply go and and buy success that easily even Chelsea and Man City have found it difficult with all their wealth to be consistent. We certainly could have done better in this summers window. A proven striker was a must, no disrespect meant to Rudy Gestede but he's not Benteke and we only just about survived twice with him.

I think a lot of supporters including myself are just sick of being hood-winked, those of us who are realistic know Villa are far from being a top 6 side at the moment and that the table the last few years does not lie. We just want to be competitive, have a few cup runs where we don't embarrass ourselves against lower opposition, or in the final! We don't expect to be the best and spend the most, but we expect to compete, and the last few season we haven't done that, it would be a compliment to say we have even stood still.
It isn't just out league position which has taken a hit since MON left, it's the clubs reputation, the clubs respect and most importantly the fans hearts and wallets.

I want to be able to take my kids to the Villa again with a real desire to be there, to enjoy it win, lose or draw. Rather than it feeling like a chore as it has become, something I now rarely look forward to. The life and soul has been sucked out of the club and the supporters along with it.
Nobody expects miracles, nobody expects trophies every season there are a lot of good honest supporters who only want the best for a club that has done nothing but take since MON left.

I think all we really ask is at least start meeting halfway.

Sorry for essay. There's no way I could've written this with a pen. Lol


3.) 04 Oct 2015 10:45:24
Im just waiting for more excuses. going to be interesting to what people can come up this time.


4.) 04 Oct 2015 13:23:32
"I think all we really ask is at least start meeting halfway."

Well said fplmorg. I think every villa fan on here would be more than happy to have a few seasons of not looking over our shoulder. Wouldn't it be nice to be safe with 5 or more games left in the season and not be having to worry about other results going our way? While I agree that the players owners and board must shoulder some of the blame for our poor start and previous poor seasons I fear that Tim is the main (well most easily remedied in the short term) problem right now. His tactical naivety has cost us too many points this season already (I was hoping that RW appointment might have helped in this regard but alas it seems not) and his subsequent comments have more than an air of Lambert to them. Young team, great effort, etc after the investment over the summer I can't help but feel that a proven manager would have villa moving upwards with the squad that is currently available at the club. Love him or loathe him big Sam has proven himself to get results and I would welcome his managerial knowledge to the club. Or maybe Ray could give his old mate Carlo a call?
Anyway whatever happens to our beloved club I will still wear my claret and blue proudly whatever division we are playing in.


5.) 04 Oct 2015 13:45:15
I am now with only 8 games in desperately worried,think we all had some better expectations with some signings,TS interviews etc etc,well it's not happening at all,seems game after game TS has no idea best starting 11 changes after changes and some very questionable subs,I thought personally that game against Stoke was a must win game even this early (yes) I believe it was to stop the rot. I'm mean ayew best 45 2nd half against that little club near us lol,Liverpool dropped,uhhh,Well I'm in disbelief not much more to say TBH it's just all depressing


6.) 05 Oct 2015 00:27:48
Let's get some info then Everybody. How many more games has TS got before Villa does something about it. Next. the longer we wait less calibar of a manger will be available,ie. Sunderland,Newcastle. (once McLaren goes enevitable). Would get the better quality manager before us. No way would we be linked with the type of manager that the liverpools,Chelsea's if Jose gets sacked,maybe,maybe not?. SO like the above post about Big Sam. why not.steady ship,proven manager,perm exp,my major worry is with all the interviews TS has done,his body language game day,and after he looks like his heart has gone,maybe just my opinion but that's what banter/rumour site is here for,to top it off TS looks to me like he has aged 10yrs in last few weeks and his energy has disappeared. I'm not one to be irrational but S*** needs sorting the soon,what do you guys think ?


7.) 06 Oct 2015 10:24:27
ancelotti or deboar are available at the moment?


8.) 06 Oct 2015 17:54:08
I'd take either of them in a heartbeat, but how realistic is it that either of them would come? Not likely.
The reality is we are a club with a good past history and a piss poor recent one with has effected our stature within the game, were essentially already in a relegation dogfight and its only just October, we have a clueless unambitious owner who has both failed to find us a new owner/chairman or show an interest and change the direction of the club.
We've had almost an entire squad overhaul, and yet have no proven premier league goalscorer in the team. With a probable tiny budget and low wages available in January, it makes you wonder.

Who can we seriously get in? I don't want Big Sam, Redknapp, Bruce or any of the other usual shower of shite that get linked with every job going. I'd rather give K Mac another shot than any of them. I wouldn't mind Moyes but can't see him leaving sunny Spain for Birmingham any time soon. Any appointment HAS to be the right one, or don't bother making one at all. The club need to make their ambitions clear before they can think of looking for a new manager cause' if just about stopping up is on the agenda for the next few years then we may as well have just kept Mcleish

What exactly are we going to offer the prospective manager?
Cheeky 1mil bonus to keep us up? and then back to the same old this time next year round?
We deserve better than that.
We're supposed to be Aston Villa for **** sake.

Very disappointed to see the deal for Kalinic fall through not just because I am desperate for us to sign anyone but because I did my own bit of research on him and he seemed a very good prospect also the fact he was keen to join.

I really don't understand these work permits and how some players and clubs breeze through coming from South America or somewhere and yet Villa seem to have serious issues with them, especially when it comes to goalies. If I remember rightly twice we failed to sign Guzan before we finally landed him cause of work permit issues and I could never understand it.

I've read its harder for goalkeepers because on average they earn less money but I can guarantee he would earn more than most people in the country and therefore pay more tax so why should this make any difference?

3.) 21 Jan 2016 18:54:17
Just saying they were all released, loaned out or sold for small fees and deemed not good enough by Villa and most of us. Yet all the millions since been spent on transfer fees and wages and what have we really gained?


4.) 21 Jan 2016 21:14:34
I agree that many were released for poor fees.
Do I think we would be better off as a squad of players than what we have?
Not at all.


5.) 22 Jan 2016 15:55:07
It's conjecture as we really don't know. The facts remain they wouldn't be any lower in the league.


 

 

17 Jan 2016 16:13:37
Does anyone else agree that Benteke has been completely wasted more or less since joining Liverpool, certainly so since Klopp has taken over.
I might be a little bit bias but for me he is easily their best and one of the best strikers in the league and to see him on the bench game after game.

Sherwood spoke out before Liverpool signed him about the lack of system in place to suit him and how he might struggle and it seems like he and others were right.
I know it is only a game but often when playing football manager he gets loaned out or sold the following summer also. I'd have him back on loan in a heartbeat.

fplmorg

1.) 17 Jan 2016 18:55:47
I resigned him on footy manager an he was poor.
Now got lacazette, embolo, Jesé and alcacar as my strikers. Did the villa get taken over by a new chairman on yours mine did after 1 season an I get loads money

4.) 17 Jan 2016 20:58:19
I've played the first season quite a few times with various teams and Villa get taken over almost every season quite often with Graham Taylor becoming the chairman.

However almost every time also they are cemented in the bottom 3 or 4 only once can I remember them finishing about 11th and it automatically starts with Remi Garde as manager.


5.) 17 Jan 2016 22:04:42
I finished 16th first year
11th second
6th third
12th fourth.

I don't like Justin Bieber, so I'd think myself pretty foolish if I should take my hard earned money and hand it over for a ticket to one of his concerts to then attend and boo for the entire duration before finally verbally abusing him as he left the arena and boarded his bus.

The only person winning in that situation would be Justin Bieber, because at the end of the day what the fu*k does he care what I think and he's got paid.

Now let's apply that principle to Aston Villa. For those of you who are still planning to attend games or have season ticket commitments.
Ask yourself the question of why you would pay or put the effort into travelling to a game to boo and abuse your own team.
Who exactly is winning in this situation?
There's only one man to boo and he can;'t hear you because he is not there.

Booing the players, decreases confidence if there is any left, booing the manager does the same thing, fighting with other supporters makes us look prehistoric and thuggish.

If you all put half as much effort into staying away for 3 or 4 games as you did booing and shouting, things might have already changed.


People argue they have the right to boo, because they've paid their money and they have their own opinions and that's fine I completely agree, but what about the other people around you who don't always agree? Or who visit the games to support the players no matter what the result? What about the potential players the club are looking to attract, would your antics make them want to come here?

I do not mean to offend anyone, I wish for all Villa fans to unite against the owner, not fight amongst themselves or the players or the manager or even the ceo, for all their own individual faults it has been at the control of one man, the only person that can change things is too scared to face you. Has been since day one.

I beg, plead for those of you going to the game tomorrow, do not boo, if you must demonstrate your feelings then direct them at the owner not at the players or the manager or other fans, the owner is to blame.

Just remember this, if you're a supporter you support the team, win lsoe or draw if you can't do that, you stay away. If you visit and boo and moan and ruin the time for everyone else around you, you are just a customer, like me at the Justin Bieber concert, and you're losing.

At least if you roar the team on and they get a result you have contributed, if you boo and they lose, what benefit was there for attending?

The best kind of protest is the kind where nobody enters the stadium, no who can hurl the most abuse, or steel the most wheelchairs. makes you look like blues fans.

Great post. A lot of sense spoken there.


 

 

22 Oct 2015 17:02:19
For many, many years I have more or less disliked Stan Collymore. I wasn't sure whether it was because he was a bit irritating and arrogant when he broadcasts, or whether it's because he likes to wind people up on twitter and then block them when they dare reply. but deep down, I always knew that it was because of what I feel he "did" to the Villa, in the sense of being a top player, joining his boyhood club and bar a handful of good performances, milk us dry and leave, essentially.

It has also annoyed me in the past when like just recently in his little statement aimed at the club for sacking him. That this is "his" Villa etc and he would get a plane, train, bus etc for them. But yet had the opportunity once upon a time and didn't take it.

However only recently has I started to see things a little differently.
For all those reasons I mentioned above besides the twitter bit, would also completely apply to Gabby Agbonlahor, well except him being a top player, sadly Gabby peaked about 4 seasons ago and has declined rapidly since, yet as a "die hard" supporter just like stan, is one of the highest earners at the club, yet provides very little, certainly no more than anyone else on far less money who don't claim to love the club.


I personally think that if Stan wants to start any little 'supporters group or petition' or do anything to pay the club back it should be to demand Gabby takes 50% pay cut and we use that 30k to bring in another striker in Jan!

Some of you may think I am being harsh but it's just a case of reality, last week on his birthday the mail produced a happy birthday article showcasing ALL his Villa goals to date, I honestly think that is A MUST read article for every Villa fan as I'm sure most of them really don't have any idea just how poor his record is and has been for some time.

You want to try and narrow down the root cause of Villas problems? Look at the common denominators, essentially anyone who has been in a serious capacity there since MON left.

fplmorg

1.) 22 Oct 2015 17:42:00
Hi fplmorg.
You don`t have to explain to me about being harsh on Agbonlahor mate.
He has milked Villa for years and is far from being a top player or a legend in my eyes, he has had 2 seasons at best wearing a Villa shirt.
For whatever reason all of our most recent managers have persisted in his name being on the team sheet, why I ask?
I am like you guys, just a run of the mill everyday bloke who loves his family, his pint, and his beloved Villa, but even I can see he ain`t good enough.
Loyalty does not come into this at all, he knows which side his bread is buttered.
I also agree with the rest of you post, well said.


2.) 22 Oct 2015 21:55:53
Although gabby isn't prolific he is a handful for opposition teams an creates space/chances for other players. Having met him as well I can tell you he is a top lad. Next time we all sing his name make sure you 2 sit down an be quiet. It
It's obvious the problem is at the top now you 2 are trying to blame gabby. Laughable.


3.) 22 Oct 2015 22:24:05
I am not blaming Agbonlahor for our current situation, I am just making a point about a player who I feel is not good enough, it`s my opinion mate.
If that offends you tough, I say it as it is, as fplmorg has pointed out take a look back at his record for us its shocking.

I have met him as well and yes he seems ok to talk too, that does not make him a good player.
And yes as you say the problem is at the top, but it also runs all through the club.
That said you can sit down now and let people make a point, and laugh about it, is that good enough for you?


4.) 22 Oct 2015 22:26:59
Better make that 3 mate
Gabby is pitiful. The fact that he is apparently a "top lad" off the pitch has little impact on me.


5.) 23 Oct 2015 01:28:37
Yes pretty shocking. Our overall prem league top goal scorer. Really really bad. Show the lad some respect
"Milked villa for years" and you call your self supporters!
Where is the support! Maybe if we didn't have as many doom an gloom merchants watching us we would do a little better. Gabby always try's his best an if a player gives his all that's good enough for me.


6.) 23 Oct 2015 14:09:33
I also mentioned our problems were at the top, if you read up, i essentially blamed anyone who has been there for significant time, they all share the blame (some far more so than others) but that's not our only problems. We have problems within our own fanbase. y

Your blind defence of Gabby only goes to prove just how fall Villa as a club must have fallen, if he's a top lad because he gave you the time of day in person, or occasionally he might cause a defence some problems in your opinion still doesn't justify top wages and a regular starting place., he is a STRIKER playing for the club he LOVES and just about averaging a goal every 7/8 games, it's NOT good enough.

Be realistic how many other teams in the premier league would Gabby play regularly for? If he was at a top 6 club they'd have gotten rid 3 years ago! probably to us!

I wasn't blaming the whole clubs state on a player, I never have, I never will, that would be insane.
I am simply adding my own personal criticism of a player that for the most part is protected by the club and most supporters, but for you to retort saying I should sit down and shut up effectively because I'm willing to state my opinion on a website intended for EXACTLY that purpose is just rude.

I am all for supporting the team, I was a season ticket holder for 9 years up until last season! And like I said in a previous post, the least I expect in return is for the club to meet me halfway.

I've heard for many, many years Emile Heskey was a really nice bloke, and two years ago I bumped into him in Brum airport and I can confirm that he is a genuinely humble and very pleasant, but that didn't change my opinion of him as a footballer, or change my opinion of the performances he put in for Villa. That's irrelevant to what his personality is like.

I'm sure Randy Lerner is a really "top bloke" to his friends and family, but what difference does that make to his ability as an owner?


7.) 23 Oct 2015 14:11:49
PS. If I played for Villa I would give my absolute all for them every second I was on or off the pitch, it would be an honour just to be there, so by your logic I deserve a contract also.


8.) 23 Oct 2015 15:27:17
Yeah, I take it all back; Gabby is the finest palyer to put on a Villa shirt. The fact that he does it for as little as £60 to 70K a week make his efforts even more laudable
I dunno what I was thinking of.
Jesus Christ. (I've stopped talking about Gabby now; just in case you were confused)


9.) 23 Oct 2015 15:30:24
P. S : the fact that he is our "overall prem league top goal scorer" is more of a sad endictment of our achievements in the Premier league than of anything else.


10.) 23 Oct 2015 19:23:08
I didn't realise we were a top six club sorry I must have had the table upside down. Champions league here we come!


11.) 23 Oct 2015 19:37:26
It's not that long ago that we regularly were mate.


12.) 23 Oct 2015 20:02:20
Right I'm not going to jump on the band wagon here about gabby
But it does seem he is getting a lot of the blame here
It was those at the top the gave him his over paid wages (I'm sure gabby was picking his lips when he renewed his contract
He played his best football under O Neill and that was out on the wing when he could use his pace
During that time he had a lot of better players around him
As a forward I do think gabby is pretty clueless he needs to be running at defender's
To be fair gabby should have moved on maybe 3 seasons ago he needs a new challenge now
It goes to show how bad we have been under Lerner if he is our top scorer Carew, Bent, these were top notch players and we just let them go so at moment guys gabby probably offers the best of what we have
It think we wasted 50 million this summer.


13.) 24 Oct 2015 12:04:32
I would argue that Gestede, Sinclair and Kozak are all as good as, and just as likely to score as many goals as Gabby this season if given the same opportunities. And I might be sticking my neck out here but I wouldn't be surprised if both Ayew and Traore out score him this season too!

However I totally agree it only showcases how far from grace Villa have fallen to have Gabby as our top goalscorer and to think of some of the better players we've had at the club we've let go too easilly whilst keeping hold of him.

Was just reading that Rhodes to Boro is off because he was asking for high end premier league wages 75-80k per week, we won't pay it. Although I think Rhodes would be a great addition, as well as many others from the championship who won't be promoted this year.

Mr Hollis was very clever which words he picked to make that statement however he said that we were only in the higher bracket for chairman making a personal investment. So everyone else who has spent more money than us has spent it from what the club already has or tv money etc, we've have spent Randys money, that is his point.
He however does not mention where exactly the TV money for the last 4/ 5 years has been spent.

Not sure what the benefit in signing Vidic would be, might as well play Senderos? Sure Vidic has bags of experience but not of a relegation scrap. And also the entire time he spent in the premiership he had the luxury of constantly fouling and getting away with it because he played for Man U, even if he wasn't slow, injury prone, past it and on top money, he'd get sent off most weeks.

You wouldn't keep Ayew? I know he got set off the other night but I think he's been our best player under Remi Garde.

I remember, my dad is a big Brighton fan and was one of the supporters club members who helped get rid finally of Bellotti.

Although the Amex is a miles better ground than the Goldstone was it took a very long time of grounds sharing and zero success to get there.

They'll probably sell off Villa Park and make us play at Bodymore, holds about 15k doesn't it?

I assume he means Adama? But i can't see him staying either unless he's injured until Sept and then we will just sell him Jan.

What was todays media watch even going to say? Look at what we could have signed? Or what everyone else did?
