Villa were boring under martin o'neil, I remember one game recently where we spent the whole game chanting boring boring villa... Most angry I've felt after a game...

If we get another good start we could well turn em over... I predict a close one though maybe 1-1 2-1 or 1-0

I remember that game - we absolutely shat all over them and somehow didn't score.

Cracking atmosphere though and loved singing boring boring Villa all game!

3. Who you think is Villa’s best player? - N'Zogbia

15. Do you think Alex McLeish moving from Birmingham to Villa was a good move for us? - I can't see what the appeal was, to be honest.

Heres mine:

1. How long have you been a THFC Supporter? Since 94/95 season
2. Who is your best player? King makes the biggest difference, Van der Vaart in terms of end product
3. Who you think is Villa’s best player? You dont really have a standout... maybe Bent?
4. What is your perception of Aston Villa? Decent enough team, under O'Neill seemed to be establishing the club towards the top end of the league, now slipped back towards mid-table.
5. What do you think the score will be? At home I think we will win, there will be goals.
6. What do you think your final position will be? Looking at the league now could be anywhere from 2nd-6th. I would settle for 4th.
7. What do you think Aston Villa position will be? After the 'top' teams, the league looks so inconsistent as it has the last couple of seasons, anywhere from 7th-15th I would say.
8. Who introduced you to THFC? The old man.
9.What was your first game and what made you want to follow then and made you return? '96 v Sheffield Wednesday. I think it finished 0-0 terrible game but I loved it.
10.What stadium you most looking forward too and why? White Hart Lane, as I havent got there much the last few years always special to return.
11.How many games do you visit a season? Not many in recent times, one last year and maybe none this year
12.Away days for yourselves expensive this season in particular, but do you think THFC are doing all they can to encourage you? n/a
13. What would you define as a good season? Champions League qualification... (at least mathematically) being in contention for the title towards the end of the season.
15. Do you think Alex McLeish moving from Birmingham to Villa was a good move for us? I think he is a very negative manager... surprised you didnt go for a bigger name. The board havent shown much ambition with his appointment.

[Leachie]

I may argue with the spelling of "roll" however :wink:

Can't argue with that...

 

[mike_l]

14. It seems Villa and Tottenham have a good relationship with transfers, do you believe there with future transfers between the two clubs if so who? Don't count on that goodwill from your end lasting after a whole season of watching Hutton and Jenas fanny about the place.
14.Obviously your sucess has been good, but how does the club look on a future stability with the incoming European Ruling expenditure vs income revenue vs wage bill? Our wage bill is well managed, do other clubs fans really not know this, as many seem to think we are just a cheque book club?
15. Do you think Alex McLeish moving from Birmingham to Villa was a good move for us? No
16. If you could have one player from Villa who would that be? N'Zogbia or nowt.

[mpickard2087]

I'll answer the new ones:

10. White Hart Lane is a home of Tottenham Hotspur with the prospect of leaving north london to move to olympic stadium would that take away history and feeling? As you will be moving to different borough? The Olympic Stadium move is dead now. Wasnt my preffered option but would have accepted it reluctantly. I dont think it would have taken away from the history of the club.
12.January is just around the corner so what activity do you expect incoming/out going Hopefully a striker, possibly a centre back but I dont think we need to much else
13. Do you think Redknapp would be good england manager if they come knocking I think his man-management and motivational abilities would do well, as it is often levelled that the England team play with fear. Maybe he will get the to relax and believe in themselves a bit more.
14. It seems Villa and Tottenham have a good relationship with transfers, do you believe there with future transfers between the two clubs if so who? As has been mentioned lets see what its like when you have witnessed Jenas and Hutton over a period of games. I mentioned yesterday you can have Pav if you want! ray:
14.Obviously your sucess has been good, but how does the club look on a future stability with the incoming European Ruling expenditure vs income revenue vs wage bill? This always annoys me, we are extremely well run when it comes to wages... in fact Im sure Villa had a higher wage bill than us for many seasons and may still have although you have cut it recently I have read. I think the season we got 4th place we had the 9th highest wage bill. Newcastle when relegated had a higher wage bill as another example. Its lazy and false to say that we throw the money around.
16. If you could have one player from Villa who would that be? None really stick out. We need a striker but I wouldnt want Bent back, he didnt seem cut out at this level, the proverbial 'big fish, small pond' tale I always use to sum him up.

11.How many games do you visit a season? 10-15
12.January is just around the corner so what activity do you expect incoming/out going? Always something going on.
13. Do you think Redknapp would be good england manager if they come knocking? Good manager, but can't make an average set of players world-beaters.
14. It seems Villa and Tottenham have a good relationship with transfers, do you believe there with future transfers between the two clubs if so who? Hopefully JJ on permanent.
14.Obviously your sucess has been good, but how does the club look on a future stability with the incoming European Ruling expenditure vs income revenue vs wage bill? Levy = business genius.

mpickard2078, i think we will try to get Pav, as AMC tried it with blues, thats the sort of player he likes, tbh i like hutton to be fair hes attacking wing back would have loved if were able to buy kyle walker after we established him last season as a premier league fixture

 

[mpickard2087]

I hope to god this is true.

It must seem like I really have it in for the guy, I have just totally lost all faith in him and cant see a way back for him at Spurs. I stuck for him for a lot of last season until I eventually lost faith, and since then his performances have been even facking worse, the lack of effort he puts in is disgraceful.

You can have him for 50p and a packet of jaffa cakes :razz:

 

[BillyWhizz]

Jenas has only recently featured for us on Saturday it is apparently that due to long time away from actoin this has made the recovery such a time for him to progress.

Villa fans are optimistic on the contry as we havent really gotta an attacking midfielder. It would be great if he got fit and featured alot on Saturday he came on and was quite energetic and could be the breath of fresh air we need.

I hve noticed on SC theres not much love for Jenas, why is it that i wonder.

Kyle Walker has come on leaps and bounds for you after having a loan spell at Villa.

What the hell has happened to Ireland? :shrug:

If we really managed to offload Hutton/Jenas/Pav to Villa in one season I'd laugh my bollocks off :lol:

 

[BillyWhizz]

1. How long have you been a TFHC Supporter? 24 years
2. Who is your best player? King
3. Who you think is Villa’s best player? Hard to pick this season but on current form Gabby
4. What is your perception of Aston Villa? Miserable like the city (the missus' words not mine and shes from there!)
5. What do you think the score will be? 2-0
6. What do you think your final position will be? 4th
7. What do you think Aston Villa position will be? 9th
8. Who introduced you to THFC? Dads friend (to stop me from the glorys choice liverpool at the time)
9.What was your first game and what made you want to follow then and made you return? Norwich at home 86/87 Allen with a hatrick, was just blown away by the noise and WHL seemed so big back then :grin:
10. White Hart Lane is a home of Tottenham Hotspur with the prospect of leaving north london to move to olympic stadium would that take away history and feeling? As you will be moving to different borough? Not gonna happen
11.How many games do you visit a season? 5ish
12.January is just around the corner so what activity do you expect incoming/out going Another striker in and probably Jacky Two Saints out the door
13. Do you think Redknapp would be good england manager if they come knocking Good yes as he keeps things simple which would suit our intellectually challenged players but I still doubt he'd get us past the qtrs of a comp we just don't have the talent atm
14. It seems Villa and Tottenham have a good relationship with transfers, do you believe there with future transfers between the two clubs if so who? As I said in another post if you want Pav there won't be many here complaining about it as for your lot I'd take Gabby he'd offer us something different up front and doesn't seem fazed by much
14.Obviously your sucess has been good, but how does the club look on a future stability with the incoming European Ruling expenditure vs income revenue vs wage bill? Levy runs a tight ship I actually think it could help us
15. Do you think Alex McLeish moving from Birmingham to Villa was a good move for us? So far no but can't really say until the end of the season. Good luck with the fixtures you've got coming up!

avilla...I know he only made his debut last week...but has the process of blaiming Jenas for absolutely everything (including war, poverty and famine) begun yet :shrug:
