1. How long have you been a TFHC Supporter? 20 years
2. Who is your best player? King, Modric
3. Who you think is Villa’s best player? Agbonlahor
4. What is your perception of Aston Villa? Always used to dislike them, nowadays I don't really have much of an opinion either way. They're a bit like Everton in that they should do better than they tend to, but only threaten to in brief glimpses.
5. What do you think the score will be? 2-1 to Spurs
6. What do you think your final position will be? At least 4th
7. What do you think Aston Villa position will be? 7th or 8th is about as much as they can hope for I think.
8. Who introduced you to THFC? Gazza
9.What was your first game and what made you want to follow then and made you return? 2-2 draw with Bolton, December '95. We could have gone 2nd with a win, we threw away a 2-0 lead.
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? I don't want Spurs to move.
11.How many games do you visit a season? About 15 league and cup.
12.January is just around the corner so what activity do you expect incoming/out going Not much needed really, but would be glad to see the back of Pavlyuchenko - Leandro in would be nice but that one seems to have sailed.
13. Do you think Redknapp would be good england manager if they come knocking? In one sense yes, I think the players would respond well to him, but at the same time he'd most likely pick his favourite players rather than those necessarily on form. I don't think we'd win anything with him in charge, but we could have another Italia '90 or Euro '96 type tournament.
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? Maybe Pavlyuchenko, or Jenas permanently. Our fringe players are the sorts who would probably make Villa's starting XI, so if we're looking to sell I wouldn't be surprised to see Villa in for some of them. There isn't really any Villa player we need I'd really want.
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? Not sure what their wage bill is like, but Villa Park's a good sized ground so they should be fine.
15. Do you think Alex McLeish moving from Birmingham to Villa was a good move for us? His was a bit of an uninspiring appointment. I thought he was going to do well with Birmingham but then it kind of went tits up.
16. If you could have one player from Villa who would that be? The only one I'd take would be Agbonlahor.
2. Who is your best player? King, Modric
3. Who you think is Villa’s best player? Agbonlahor

1. How long have you been a TFHC Supporter? 21 years (and this is the best I've ever known life as a Spurs fan to be)
2. Who is your best player? When he plays, Ledley King. When he doesn't, Bale. Must mention BAE though - most under-rated player in the league.
3. Who you think is Villa’s best player? Agbonlahor
4. What is your perception of Aston Villa? Good club, big club, not the greatest fans (I recall some numpties on SSN saying they were pleased when MON left!) but one of those few teams I can't imagine not being in the top flight.
5. What do you think the score will be? We're due a slip, but I'll say 2-1 to Spurs
6. What do you think your final position will be? 4th
7. What do you think Aston Villa position will be? 8th
8. Who introduced you to THFC? Lineker, Gascoigne, Italia 90 and my brother's Pannini sticker album.
9.What was your first game and what made you want to follow then and made you return? Was already hooked by the time I went to my first game. It was a 2-2 draw away to Ipswich - Jason Dozzell scored our equaliser.
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 looking likely anymore (which I'm happy about), but if we had to lose some of our identity in order to compete regularly at the top, I'd favour a move across the same city over a takeover from a Russian/Arab oil tycoon.
11.How many games do you visit a season? About a dozen.
12.January is just around the corner so what activity do you expect incoming/out going? Not a lot. Pav will go this time, maybe Bassong too, and so the hope would be to replace them both with a CF and CB capable of really challenging for a starting place. Not a fan of Gary Cahill though - would prefer Samba.
13. Do you think Redknapp would be good england manager if they come knocking? He's the best candidate but I still think the team would be rubbish - he'd just create a much more positive aura around it than Crapello has done.
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? Jenas could become a perm move. Big Eck might still fancy Pav. Can't see us going for any of yours, although you do have some decent youngsters - Bannan particularly.
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? We have the best chairman around, and already a tight wage structure. But need the new stadium to go ahead.
15. Do you think Alex McLeish moving from Birmingham to Villa was a good move for us? Yes and no - steady manager but not an ambitious one. So depends on what the club's ambitions are.
16. If you could have one player from Villa who would that be? Bannan - but not sure how he would get much game time with us.
2. Who is your best player? When he plays, Ledley King. When he doesn't, Bale. Must mention BAE though - most under-rated player in the league.

Might be bad thing, I couldn't believe my eyes but it was Heskey that tore us apart for thirty mins last year before he went off with injury.

Hopefully Bale burns Hutton.
Although Alan probably knows his tricks... So it could work in Villa's favour.

I doubt it. The world and his wife knew about the Harry situation before and the only thing we didn't know was the court date. The fact that it is in January rather than sooner actually takes it out of the spotlight. He won't even be at the game anyway as he is still recovering from his surgery.
Looks as though we have seen your Agbonlahor hammy and raised you a Van der Vaart hammy. Who can survive better?

1. How long have you been a TFHC Supporter? 10 years +
2. Who is your best player? King, Parker and VdV in that order this season, in ability Modric and Bale are also up there
3. Who you think is Villa’s best player? Bent, N'Zogbia on paper. I like Albrighton as well, but is not there yet!
4. What is your perception of Aston Villa? Club with some exciting players who are not alowed to fully express themselves.
5. What do you think the score will be? We should win well, but if you play us on the counter.... Think you lack the boldness to really trouble us however
6. What do you think your final position will be? 3rd-5th, 2nd if we are really lucky, 6th would be terrible for a team of this quality
7. What do you think Aston Villa position will be? 7th-10th
8. Who introduced you to THFC? My dad
9.What was your first game and what made you want to follow then and made you return? Think it was Blackburn in the early naughties when managed by Hoddle. We won 2-1 and Keane scored
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? It will be different.. But the club would live on, its not like we would be moving to the other side of London or anything. It doesn't really matter as the whole thing is off, and we are not re-submitting our entry by the looks of things!
11.How many games do you visit a season? Normally 5-10 a year, will be less this time though....
12.January is just around the corner so what activity do you expect incoming/out going Very little. Pav will go, so will Gomes. Maybe Modric will push for a move but don't think so... We will probably sign players to increase depth, maybe a Striker, Winger if we think Pienaar is not good enough and a CB if injury problems continue, someone like Cahill would fit the bill.
13. Do you think Redknapp would be good england manager if they come knocking yes
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? Pav might go, but is probs to much like the strikers you already have.
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? We are probably the best placed club in the top 6 with Arsenal on this one. We spend very little on wages, and make good revenue. Our only debts are stadium related, and are small for PL standards.
15. Do you think Alex McLeish moving from Birmingham to Villa was a good move for us? I do, he wll bring stability in a time of change for Villa, if he doesn't jump ship..
16. If you could have one player from Villa who would that be? One of your wingers for a quick alternative to Lennon, and maybe Dunne as a short term defensive option.
2. Who is your best player? King, Parker and VdV in that order this season, in ability Modric and Bale are also up there
3. Who you think is Villa’s best player? Bent, N'Zogbia on paper. I like Albrighton as well, but is not there yet!

1. How long have you been a THFC Supporter? 15 years
2. Who is your best player? Luka Modric
3. Who you think is Villa’s best player? Agbonlahor/Given/Dunne
4. What is your perception of Aston Villa? Not the worst team in the world, but not really one of my favourites either. Favourite midlands side, though.
5. What do you think the score will be? 3-1
6. What do you think your final position will be? 4th
7. What do you think Aston Villa position will be? 10th
8. Who introduced you to THFC? Local side, I was never gonna be a gooner was I?
9.What was your first game and what made you want to follow then and made you return? The first game I was taken to was an Arsenal match at Highbury (family are all gooners) when I was about 5. They hammered Sheffield Wednesday 4-1. I don't really know why I chose Spurs and went against my whole family, but I remember my first Spurs game was vs Everton at home. We won 3-2, I ate so many Skittles and was with a mad Irishman - how could I have been happier?
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? Say no to Stratford, North London is ours!
11.How many games do you visit a season? As many games as I can get to, normally about 10.
12.January is just around the corner so what activity do you expect incoming/out going Dos Santos out, Pavlyuchenko and Bassong may go too. Hopefully Leandro will join and perhaps Samba or Cahill.
13. Do you think Redknapp would be good england manager if they come knocking Yes and no. I think anyone can do a decent job in comparison to the shit we've been used to for a while now. But I think Psycho should get the nod.
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? Agbonlahor, Given and maybe Albrighton would be the only players worth looking at for us in my opinion, however I don't think we'll go in for any. We'll probably sell some of our fringe players to Villa if anything.
15.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? We're in very good hands and so I fully trust our board will get it right.
16. Do you think Alex McLeish moving from Birmingham to Villa was a good move for us? He's a good manager who sets his teams up very well defensively, but he can be a bit zzzzz. 0-0s aren't really my thing, but he gets the job done. Not sure about the straight switch, though...
17. If you could have one player from Villa who would that be? Shay Given. As much as I like Agbonlahor, we'll need a keeper and not many are better than Shay.
2. Who is your best player? Luka Modric
3. Who you think is Villa’s best player? Agbonlahor/Given/Dunne
4. What is your perception of Aston Villa? Not the worst team in the world, but not really one of my favourites either. Favourite midlands side, though.
5. What do you think the score will be? 3-1
6. What do you think your final position will be? 4th
7. What do you think Aston Villa position will be? 10th
8. Who introduced you to THFC? Local side, I was never gonna be a gooner was I?
9.What was your first game and what made you want to follow then and made you return? The first game I was taken to was an Arsenal match at Highbury (family are all gooners) when I was about 5. They hammered Sheffield Wednesday 4-1. I don't really know why I chose Spurs and went against my whole family, but I remember my first Spurs game was vs Everton at home. We won 3-2, I ate so many Skittles and was with a mad Irishman - how could I have been happier?
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? Say no to Stratford, North London is ours!
11.How many games do you visit a season? As many games as I can get to, normally about 10.
12.January is just around the corner so what activity do you expect incoming/out going Dos Santos out, Pavlyuchenko and Bassong may go too. Hopefully Leandro will join and perhaps Samba or Cahill.
13. Do you think Redknapp would be good england manager if they come knocking Yes and no. I think anyone can do a decent job in comparison to the shit we've been used to for a while now. But I think Psycho should get the nod.
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? Agbonlahor, Given and maybe Albrighton would be the only players worth looking at for us in my opinion, however I don't think we'll go in for any. We'll probably sell some of our fringe players to Villa if anything.
15.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? We're in very good hands and so I fully trust our board will get it right.
16. Do you think Alex McLeish moving from Birmingham to Villa was a good move for us? He's a good manager who sets his teams up very well defensively, but he can be a bit zzzzz. 0-0s aren't really my thing, but he gets the job done. Not sure about the straight switch, though...
17. If you could have one player from Villa who would that be? Shay Given. As much as I like Agbonlahor, we'll need a keeper and not many are better than Shay.

1. How long have you been a TFHC Supporter? I'm 31 almost and have been a Spurs fan technically since I was born, there are pictures of me in an over sized Spurs shirt the day I was allowed home from hospital. Basically as soon as I was consciously aware of what football was football was all about Spurs to me.
2. Who is your best player? Most will say Modric or King, but to me the most talented player and closest thing we have to WORLD CLASS is Van Der Vaart
3. Who you think is Villa’s best player? Although I am not a fan of his, at EPL level and in a team mid table with ambitions of chasing the Europa places it cannot be argued that Darren Bent is a goal scorer and probably Villa's most effective weapon over the course of a season.
4. What is your perception of Aston Villa? I went to University down the road from Villa Park at U.C.E and lived in both Aston and Perry Barr (stones throw from Villa Park) so I know a fair bit about the Villa. Hated by pretty much all other Brummie and West Midland's teams (they're are the big fish in that particular pond)....even Coventry hate the Villa. Good club, rich history, nice stadium with a decent capacity.
Dare I say a team that has under performed like Everton for many years, as the top dog in the second biggest city in the country and with a wider than City fan base catchment area the club should be up there challenging for honours in my opinion. Former Champions of Europe who have failed to mount a challenge anywhere near the top of the table since the days of Ron and Dalian Atkison.
Nice family sort of club, when I lived there I used to go to watch Villa/Spurs matches every year and sit in the DOUG ELLIS STADIUM and even though from my accent it was obvious I was a Spurs fan the Villa fans would always engage in friendly banter with me and nothing more, so they are a club I have a soft spot for and have liked since the year they failed to beat Utd to the title with the likes of Dean Saunders, Tony Daley and Stuart Staunton in the ranks.
5. What do you think the score will be? I'd take any type of win, I think in Given Villa have a great keeper capable of keeping us out (especially if VDV is not fit) and in Bent they have a goal scorer who will be fired up against his old club. It's a awkward game for us and I would be delighted with a one nil win.
6. What do you think your final position will be? 4th
7. What do you think Aston Villa position will be?8th
8. Who introduced you to THFC? My dad and maternal Granddad
9.What was your first game and what made you want to follow then and made you return? First game I ever went to was Spurs 0 Luton 0 boxing day 1987. In hindsight maybe the most dull game ever with the only moment of interest being a Terry Fenwick missed penalty. I was hooked none the less and couldn't wait to go to another game
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 long as Spurs remained in or around the London area I would happily support them wherever, best case scenario we stay put but if it would have been a better option for the club to move to Stratford I would have been all for it
11.How many games do you visit a season? I no longer have a season ticket but home and away I will generally get to 10 plus games in a season, more if we have runs in the carling cup or in europe as I will go to most home midweek matches too
12.January is just around the corner so what activity do you expect incoming/out going? Pav needs to go and be replaced/upgraded. We have a few other players who could leave if the right type of offers come in, but other than that I don't see us making many moves, depends what comes our way I suppose we could be in the market for a centre back depending on our injury list and maybe a right winger/midfielder but our only real priority as of now will be some back up and competition for Adebayor I think
13. Do you think Redknapp would be good england manager if they come knocking?I think he would be as good as England could hope to get, but I think the job is a poison chalice and when comparing the English talent pool to the top teams in Europe and the World I just don't see ENgland matching national ambition any time soon
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? I don't think Villa have a need for any one we would like to sell anymore and right now there is no one we would be overly interested in from Villa either
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? The ruling if enforced well would probably benefit us over all as we are run more with in our means than many of our direct rivals
15. Do you think Alex McLeish moving from Birmingham to Villa was a good move for us?I think Villa should have looked elsewhere, he's a steady manager who does not entertain and couldn't even keep The Blues up last year even though they had a squad better than many of the rivals for relegation
16. If you could have one player from Villa who would that be? Probably I would take N'Zogbia just as an extra option and cover for our wings. David Dunn too could be useful back up for our CB's and Given would probably be an upgrade on our keepers, if not Friedel certainly a more long term option than him.
Gabbi Abb is talented and rapid, but I am not his biggest fan and I would like to see us sign better than him personally although he would make a decent option from the bench for us.

1. How long have you been a TFHC Supporter? Can't remember not being one, so 26 years.
2. Who is your best player? When fit, Ledley King. When not, probably Modric, but Bale's best is the best of any of them.
3. Who you think is Villa’s best player? Probably Darren Bent.
4. What is your perception of Aston Villa? Big club, always had good players, having a poor spell in their history and in danger of being left behind for a while like we were in the 90's.
5. What do you think the score will be? 289 all out
6. What do you think your final position will be? 3rd
7. What do you think Aston Villa position will be? 7th - 11th
8. Who introduced you to THFC? My dad.
9.What was your first game and what made you want to follow then and made you return? Really don't remember, but the earliest game I remember attending was against Villa, Gerry Francis first match. We were losing 3-0, came back to 3-3 only for Dean Saunders to score a last minute winner. I'd gone to quite a few games before this, but that's the earliest game I can recall.
10.What stadium you most looking forward too and why? Our new stadium in a few years time.
11.How many games do you visit a season? All home games in all competitions and 4 or 5 away.
12. Away days for yourselves expensive this season in particular, but do you think THFC are doing all they can to encourage you? Probably not.
13. What would you define as a good season? Top 4 OR a trophy.
15. Do you think Alex McLeish moving from Birmingham to Villa was a good move for us? No, he'll ensure you years of being steady but he isn't the man to try and get Villa back to any level of greatness.
