  1. To all those who have me pelters when I offered my opinion that, (based on watching him all season at Villa), Guzan was not Premiership standard, I told you so lol

    Guedioura

    I have a bit of an insight into Aston Villa through a friend of my son and I know that our team who handled the negotiations as regards Adomah, Gestede, Traore and Rhodes were thought to be pretty much second rate and the Villa got everything they asked for.

    Guedwho? I cannot even remember what he looks like and would not recognise him if he stood on my foot! How can this level of incompetence be allowed to continue, surely someone must be responsible.
  4. It would be very interesting to see how our current squad would look under Wagner, he plays a high pressing game with the emphasis on winning the ball and moving it quickly, the exact opposite of Karanka really. Would some of the squad thrive under this new system and come out of their shells, probably but it is inly theoretical. I do not know who would finish higher but I sure as hell know which style of football I would prefer to watch, I have been really impressed with Huddersfield this season, while karanka has got me watching Rugby Union !
  5. Any chance of giving Bamford and Fischer a game, we might need them next season. It does not make any sense to me not having them in the squad, then again the logic of Karanka and Agnew nearly always passed me by !
  6. Seems to me that Agnew is just a version of Karanka without the accent, a bit like a Karanka lite, both give me a headache, just one a little bit faster ?
  7. I see Downing has come out in praise of Agnew saying he should have the job next season. Anyone else read that as ruthless self interest, in that it can be read that I have more chance to keep my place if he is in charge and my best mate is on the coaching staff /

    Next Season

    Can Fulham please stay in the Championship, friendliest, most hospitable place in the league and I would miss my day out there.
  9. Dont,t care anymore, bottom, second bottom it,s all the same at the end of the day, I really cannot be ***d!
  10. The club belongs to the town and we the supporters, and frankly, although we may not have the numbers of Man U, ***nal etc, we are bloody marvellous people who have stuck up for this club through thick and thin, and I am proud to be one of them, and always will be. We do not therefore deserve what is currently going on, the club is a shambles from the top of the management tree to the playing and coaching staff. Steve Gibson needs to start talking to us and giving honest answers to the questions festering through the club, what truly happened that fateful Feb when Karanka 'walked' and why was
  11. BBC commentator just called us abject, just about sums it up!
  12. Do not know where we go from here. Rip everything up and start again with new management and recruitment staff is the knee jerk reaction but Villa tried that twice and they are still awful.
  13. Just come in and logged into this thread. just going out again, this is the worst team ever to wear the red of our club. Embarrased and disgusted.
  14. Think that's just the level of our team. If we open up a bit we can't keep teams out. And if we don't commit bodies forward we can't score. We no doubt have a bottom-4 squad. We have scored the same amount, we have conceded far more and Agnew wins half the amount of points karanka did. UTB Let it go Gwen. Karanka isn't out manager any more. FWIW: We have scored 4 goals in the last 5 league games under Agnew. We scored 3 goals in the previous 10 league games under Karanka. Even the most blinkered can surely see there has been an uplift in scoring? Seconded, let us just move

    Ugo Ehiogu

    I was fortunate enough to meet him on two separate occasions and he came across as a really nice thoughtful guy with a great love of football. I am saddened at his death at such a young age, my condolences to his family and many friends at Boro and here in the Midlands.
  16. Walk towards the light Betamaxman, just let it go, you will feel better We were relegated a long time ago, apart from Sunderland we are the worst team in this division, just read the statistics. Join me in now concentrating on the possibilities of next season under a proven manager with, (hopefully), money to spend. I have already talked our fellow forum member, Thomas, off the edge of the roof, so you can do it as well, embrace the inevitability of it all and peace and calmness will descend.
  17. Ok so this team will break up at the end of the season and we will rebuild from whatever is left. What concerns me is how much confidence can we all have that we have the right people in charge of the recruitment decisions, based on what we have seen during the last two windows. By the way what happened to that guy we bought from Watford, did he ever turn up ?
  18. haha gloat gloat So you thought he had a good first half then?
  19. Date I say that Barraghan has been much improved that half, but Downing, where is he, what is he contributing ?
  20. As soon as Clayton committed that stupid foul I turned to my wife and told her watch relegation be confirmed. 30 seconds later the ball was in the net. At least my wife (a big ***nal fan) fell asleep on the sofa before the game started. That bottle of wine did the trick ;) You married an ***nal fan Billy?. Sorry I cannot take any of your posts seriously ever again !!
  21. ***nal dominating possession 70/30. We have reverted to type after a bright spell and funneled backwards meaning there is no one to pass forward to.
  22. Agnes on Sky claiming he has picked an attacking team to win the match, what, with three defensive mids and Downing !!. Back to my favourite word of the day "Deluded".
  23. On the bright side, with that team, it should be all over by half time and I can watch Broadchurch at nine without having to record it. Seriously, has Agnes lost the plot, does he not realize why Karanka got the sack?
  24. Mate i think everyone knows by now (unless they been on a space mission and just came back or been sat in the bottom of the pond since Christmas or just came out of hibernation or something similar) we have been awful and the reality is unless a miracle happens we are not staying up but having said that to make that miracle happen i think the manager, players and supporters have got to rally together and start believing we can do it. Thomas, you are doing it again I am afraid, accept the inevitable and move on, let it go and you will feel better.
