  1. I didn’t imply anything mate. You were replying to @weedman He wasn’t dropped. He lost his place. How many times do people have to explain this to you before you understand?
  2. I’ve heard it all now. Are you seriously comparing Hourihane with Grealish? Behave yourself.
  3. Hope everything turned out alright mate. I meant actually in the room with them during the labour as opposed to not being there at all. I found I was a hindrance and it would have been better if my wife had her sister with her or something. If I did I would fully understand there’s a chance I could lose my place if the player who replaced me did a great job.
  4. He didn’t do anything wrong He didn’t play and so Whelan came in and did such a good job he kept his place. That’s how it should be!
  5. I actually see where you are coming from and if we didn’t have cover I reckon he would have played. We didn’t need him. Edit: quoted the wrong post. Was meant to quote @screwdriver Does any man actually want to be there when their wife gives birth? I don’t think it actually helps them. If I have another one I’m waiting outside.
  6. Really? Fair play if you using an academy keeper and keeping clean sheets. I think you you will fall short mate.
  7. Bookies offering £30 cash out not on villa promotion. I might get tempted at over a hundred. Hopefully pay for a day out at Wembley.
  8. Whilst I think he has been great lately I do think he has been poor in enough games at his time here to warrant criticism in the past. He has never deserved to be a scapegoat though. @Stevo985 on the other hand thinks he's the best defensive midfielder we’ve had since Andy Townsend!
  9. To be fair its difficult to play at the intensity we did first half for 90 minutes. Also Blackburn moved it around really well. Even then they created nothing and scored from a mistake. We also had chances to get the 3rd in the second half. It was good to see us show some grit in seeing the game out.
  10. Howler against Wigan for their third.
  11. Boro too. Wonder what the options may be. Switch the game to Villa park? Give Villa the 3 points?
  12. He did a really dangerous crossfield pass that could have lead to trouble. The most amazing thing about the mistake was it’s probably the first one he’s done since he arrived. Quailty player and defender. Really hope we can sign him.
  13. An Inconsistent player for me is somebody that is good one game and crap the next. What you have just described is poor form in my opinion. He has been very good for the last 6 games.
  14. Yeah I’m going to go down to the next 3 games and hopefully the semi final.
  15. We need to kill these teams off in the first half. Like we should have done Saturday.
  16. That’s one way of looking at it. Another way of looking at it is all the teams we are playing are all under pressure. I actually think the toughest opponent we’ve had during this run (not including Birmingham) was Blackburn. In that second half they played like a team that had no pressure on them. Moved it around really well. I was quite impressed.
  17. It know it’s a bit premature talking about this but was anyway able to get a ticket to the final last year with no booking history for that season?
  18. It does but you even had Whelan, Taylor and Elmo putting in sharp first time passes and always looking to pass and move. It's different coaching to the previous management where I couldn’t ever quite understand how we were trying to play. Players used to be so static. But to be fair a lot of work must have been done under Bruce too keep us solid. We didn’t used to concede much.
  19. I agree. April is a horrible schedule as it is. Too have an extra one or two games is just too much for any squad to handle.
  20. I think 71 will make it this year. I think we will finish on 75
  21. I keep reading this but those 5 away games that Derby have don’t look easy to me. Derby are awful away from home. I think we have the best run in up until the last 2 games. As for tonight’s game I think Boro are due a win after 4 defeats in a row. They also looked a lot better against Norwich and were a little unlucky. Bristol managed an amazing result on the weekend but the game must have taken a lot out of them.
  22. I just watched the first half again. Green, Grealish, Mcginn and Abraham’s one touch link up play was fantastic. Others were good too but those 4 really stood out. We play like that every week we will destroy any team. I didn’t think we’d see the affects of Smiths coaching until next season. To see it come at a time when we can still go up is great to see.
  23. I hope we sign him. Especially if we stay in this league. Will only get better.
