You all seem to take it to heart, when you hear people don't share your opinions and have a different view on life Take for example, hearing people saying "we live in a racist racist society. When in reality, we realy dont. Its just a small minority of **** heads being, well **** heads. An a even smaller minority being possibly genuinely racists. I think that's you. People will disagree with you and, instead of holding a reasonable discussion, you go off on one about "OMG can't have a different opinion anymore". You can - you're just in the minority. People don't hold the same misogynistic and/or possibly racist views as you. They don't see Eluko or Richards or Deeney on TV and think "well, that's some serious box ticking going on". Do you think the same about Crouch being tall - having some box ticking exercise to get tall people on? I bet not!

Just because about 5 people on VT comment and may agree with you, doesn't make me the minority. I have never in my life been called racist or misogynistic off VT so speaks volumes really. Some people just need to wake up. It happens in every business. Many have had to up there numbers to look equal in the last decade. Even our department when I started had one Chinese guy and the rest white. Now it's up there with what you and society expects. Anyway we are gonna be ****ed for off topic here, so let's move on. Aluko was employed for her vast football insight I'm sure. Edited Saturday at 09:57 by foreveryoung Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is weird how she gets singled out for stick when let's be honest the vast majority of them are **** useless, she's no worse and at least she's not a miserable word removed like Murphy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neville, Ferdinand, Richards for a start but seems her being a woman is an issue for the incels online Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted Saturday at 11:24 Share Posted Saturday at 11:24 I think it's more her general attitude to be honest. She comes across as a truly truly truly terrible person. Neville is just a berk and the rest generally. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But shes is held more for her poor comments, and bullshit. "Female managers discuss transfers together to get the owner to put a higher bid in". "1 goal a game, do the math" 'Dwight errrrrr". People always seem to want to call out racism and misogyny, when really, it's just calling someone out because they are shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kuwabatake Sanjuro Posted Saturday at 17:55 Share Posted Saturday at 17:55 Not to be one of those paranoid conspiracy theorists but if you look at the BBC Premier League page then you'd think there was no game in Villa park today.

Zatman Posted Saturday at 18:24 Share Posted Saturday at 18:24 Speaking of BBC they have been going incredibly hard this week with Harry Kane breaking nothing records including today's Bundesliga record he broke. Today's record is he became the top scoring English player in Bundesliga history. Hardly a noteworthy record considering lack of English players that go to Germany Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StewieGriffin Posted Saturday at 22:29 Share Posted Saturday at 22:29 Intro to the game on MOTD tonight; "Several of Aston Villa's European Cup Winners of 1982 here today... Including Tony Morley, who provided the cross for Peter Withe's headed goal" Do some basic research, mate eh? Maybe just actually watch the bloody goal first? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interestingly I caught the start and it made me think we're possibly turning the corner with the TV media. It was always going to take time, but we've now sustained our form for about 21 months. If we keep it up we'll start getting the recognition. In previous seasons you know the Liverpool game would have been first on with the shock result. Obviously a "come from behind win" and "derby" is always going to be a big draw but that's never meant much before. Be interesting to see how many times we're on first compared with previous years If we maintain our position (which would be no diffferent from last season).

Jonesy7211 Posted 15 hours ago Share Posted 15 hours ago I absolutely detest Peter Drury. He was always bad on itv, but he's got worse since joining sky. I'm not in any way a master of verse, but he seems to think he's the second coming of Shakespeare, constantly going over the top to describe events surrounding and during a game of football. Especially when it's a Sky 6 team. Maybe one for things that piss you off that shouldn't thread. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
