dudevillaisnice Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 ^ Does he want to leave? How do you know? Great, if so in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanO Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Plenty of players get booed, remember that knob Hodge? Warnock, Hutton, Collins and Heskey are simply not good enough to wear a Villa shirt as we all know they will let the team down continually, if only McClueless could see that, sigh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Plenty of players' do not get booed for making errors on the pitch, if I am wrong list them for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pelle Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Anyone who's played the game will know he meant that Anone who's played the game will know that the mistake wasn't the header. The mistake was the communication. He had free sight on the ball untill Dunne jumped up in front of him. The og wasn't solely Warnocks fault. Dunne had his fair share of it too. Had Dunne not done that it would never have been a goal. But people have decided to make Warnock a scapegoat so they won't let anything off him. Not defending Warnock as a player, just defending him a bit for that og. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ausvilla72 Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 I agree with you Pelle, spot on. Though why he was heading it that way i dont know. Never head across face of goal. Most will back header it away...even for a corner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most will back header it away...even for a corner. Absolutely. I don't think he was really aware of where he was heading it. And it's typical Villa this season to score an og when there was no real threat at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiggyrichard Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Some of the shit over the last 4 or 5 pages is **** breathtaking! He's playing shite, out of form and out of luck, no more no less. Yes he needs dropping and needs his confidence rebuilding, but to say he is terrible is stupid. People have short memories, he was our best player at the start of the season. Oh...and the "he scored it on purpose" thing...im just going to pretend that i never read that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrackpotForeigner Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Tbf I suspect Warnock was booed as much for his widely-rumoured falling out with the club in general as for his mistakes. I can't imagine that Gabby or Albrighton would have been booed, even if they set up one and scored another for the oppo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darrenm Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 I took my 7yo son there last night. We sat in the Lower Holte and watched the OG go in about 3 rows behind where it was. As soon as it happened there were loads of fans screaming abuse at Warnock, really nasty stuff he could quite obviously hear while lying on his back wanting the ground to swallow him up with a look of disbelief on his face. Then when all the other players (including Dunne) had walked off and left him there, it was only Given who went to him, put his arm on his shoulder and tried to offer some comfort. As he did that, the whole stand booed. It was absolutely sickening and I saw the shocked and upset look on my son's face, he couldn't understand how fans could turn on their player like that. I was 50/50 whether to just get up and walk out at that point, leaving the arseholes to their bile. We stuck it out only to hear Warnock getting booed on every touch, but a fantastic performance in the 2nd half. Obviously McLeish had a word with him at HT as he seemed really determined to put it right and him and Hutton were both great on the flanks in the 2nd half. I was left thinking last night that perhaps it wouldn't be a bad thing if we got relegated because hopefully the idiots would lose interest and only leave Villa to the real supporters.

03butpau Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Kightly would have torn warnock apart in that first half anyway. Drop and put clark there i hope he never wears the shirt again. He is the worst player i´ve seen since mark kinsella Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiggyrichard Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Agree you need to get that head back in the sand and adopt the ostrich stance You honestly believe he did that on purpose? Why is my head in the sand? Because i dont believe one of our players scored an own goal on purpose? Do you realise how stupid you sound by claiming that he did it on purpose?

Stevo985 Posted February 2, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted February 2, 2012 Agree, it's a bit like bowling no balls on purpose It would NEVER happen Well I'm sold. Someone in a different sport, did something totally incomparable to this incident, therefore Warnock MUST have done it on purpose. He was either trying to cushion it back to Given, or glance it out of play. Dunne jumping in front of him meant he royally **** it up. It was shit play. But if you genuinely believe it was on purpose (which you don't, but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt) then there's no convincing you otherwise. It's total conspiracy theory stuff. If it was on purpose, why would he carry on playing well (for him) in the second half. I assume he'd have scored it in order to make us lose the game? Surely once we went to 2-2 he'd have tried something else? Why would he act so gutted when he scored it? So that people wouldn't think it was on purpose? Then why do it in the first place? If no-one knew it was on purpose, what does it achieve?

CrackpotForeigner Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Give Lichaj a try. We won't know who's best until we put him to the test. And he has a long throw, you know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pelle Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 and Kennedy WAS shot from the Texas School Book Depository I stopped reading there... Which was the only thing in your post that I can't wholeheartedly agree on, but that's another debate. So, top post. Again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
