Tuncay was there for the taking, and MON declined.....this will come back to haunt us.... A player like Krancjar who is quality, we should have made a run at him... Downing and Warnock stand out as the best signings. I'm hopeful that Delph will make me change my mind, though.

THERE WILL BE NO DISCUSSION OF THIS MATTER

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!

Which one of you fukkin liars voted 10?

Ooh, dont say that in Brooklyn

Er, not so sure about that, CM So you're saying that prior to 9/11 people had American flags outside their homes? Don't remember that AT ALL. Unless of course it was on 4th of July. After we were attacked everyone and their dog had an American flag on their car, their house, and their motorcycles. Where I live, people fly the flag. My neighbor growing up was a Marine, and he had an actual flagpole in front of his house. Being from the Boston area, the flag is everywhere, in large part due to our revolution history. What WAS new here, were all the jingoistic bumperstickers. But the flag flying is nothing new here at all....

I'm assuming he was referring to his twisting of Roosevelt's arm to get us to start cranking out ammunitions for the big fight, and then our entry into the theater itself. Our involvement in WW2 was probably our last truly noble military endeavor. Unfortunately, when the powers that be saw what a wartime economy could do for society, it set in motion what we have today: The Military Industrial Complex, i.e. war for profiteering. It's an absolute afront to the values and ideals we as Americans are usually so keen to espouse.

Er, not so sure about that, CM

What best describes your feelings about the US of A?

Considering who our strikers are, 4-5-1 every game please.

I think when you factor in your age (19), your grade goes WAAAY up, man! Keep your chin up, the world is just opening up for you.

This is somewhat vague by nature, but if you were to sum up your overall quality of life, factoring in: Job/Money Romance Friendships/Family Housing Physical/Mental Health Spirituality And whatever else is important to you....1 being life sucks, 10 being a step closer to rapture

Yeah, so nice not to have the FSC muppets yap away before kickoff. And no Julie Foudy, wooooooot! So it looks like Georgie Bingham and whatever retired footballers ESPN can get to come to Bristol on a Saturday morning (Shaka Hislop who's apparently coaching down the road at Quinnipiac is one of the notable ones) will present the games where ESPN US takes the international feed. She stumbled a few times last Saturday (getting Michael Owen and Wayne Rooney confused: "that was Rooney's first goal since January, when he was of course with Newcastle"), but somehow I can forgive that... there're three good points about her (not least is the East Anglian accent...). For games that are shared with ESPN UK, it'll be more or less straight into the game (ESPN US picked up the ESPN UK feed when Ray Stubbs handed it off to Jon Champion, though the edition of SportsCenter that preceded the game ran over its allotted time by a bit), the UK halftime show, and straight out of the game to commercials and regular ESPN programming. Very good camera work, though it took ESPN2 several minutes to dispense with the BottomLine, which was ruining some of the UK lower-thirds. Hold on, Foudy WAS in studio on Sat.???????

Brilliant by all.....Including ESPN, our new talisman

How can you argue against 4-5-1 after tonight? Especially given our striker situation. We have plenty of options in MF and that will only get better with Downing. What we need now is 3 fullbacks and a striker. Another midefielder is a luxury spend IMO. But 4-5-1 all **** day

Good post, General. One function of this forum is that it allows people to vent their frustrations, and sometimes it can seem that the anger and negativity is the prevailing mindset of the supporters. I know most supporters on this site and everywhere else are behind the manager and chairman 100%, even if we have concerns right now. UTV

He wont be sacked. Chances are he stays the whole way. What's scary is that we currenly look like relegation material. Can you imagine? :shock:

Strictly 2009/10, what do you think his fate is?

I can speak a basic form of conversational Spanish whereby the native speaker will be fascinated to learn that "I had a Mexican girlfriend", "I like cold beer" and "When does the train leave?"

Haha, I think you have to give him at the very least the time to sign more players and then a few months to see how the team gels. If this season turns into a trainwreck come October, Lerner will have a new and unusual dilemna: The possibility of having to sack The Messiah. But you never know what's really going on behind the scenes. It could be Lerner who's putting the kibosh on certain transfers. MON isnt gonna come out and say he wasnt getting the backing from the owner. Interesting times ahead...

I miss that lad O'Leary signed....erm whats his name? Obama

Now, if I went over to the regular Villa forum and made a thread called "Should Delph have started?", would it get locked because it should be asked on this particular thread here? If we want to talk about a specific thing regarding the game, we are now not allowed to start it's own thread? Scratching my head a bit here....
