    Make or Break

    But if there's a potential owner at some point down the line who believes we need to own our stadium and is prepared to provide it (as happened with Brighton) then being signed up to a long term deal at the Ricoh could be a hinderance.

    If you could afford to what sporting events around the world would you go to see

    Boxing Day Ashes test for me. Doubt I'll ever get to do that. Would also like to go to a test in the West Indies, again doubt that will ever happen. Would like to see more NHL games live, got more chance of doing that one. Would particularly like to see my team (Ottawa Senators).

    What would your England team be for the euros

    Anyone who isn't fully fit should stay at home. We seem to make the same mistake at every tournament taking half fit players in the hope they will magically recover by the time the knock outs start.

    Gillingham match thread

    Well at least we didn't lose I suppose. Hard to generate any enthusiasm for a draw when we've got from playing for automatic to play-offs to trying to stay in the top half.

    Make or Break

    I don't entertain them, I just don't think repeating the same mistake we made over and over again in the past, spending more than we have, is the way to get us out of the mess we are in.

    Gillingham match thread

    Jones must either have taken a knock or isn't up to full match fitness and can't play a full 90 mins. Can't think of any other reason you'd take him off.

    Make or Break

    And that was what I was commenting on. Richardson also said 'have a punt'. You're suggesting the club deliberately spends more than it can afford, and potentially get a transfer embargo as a result, in the hope of success.

    Gillingham match thread

    Why do the team never seem to have any reaction to a performance as bad as last week? When other teams have a bad day you expect them to go the extra mile next time out to prove themselves. We just don't seem bothered.

    It will be thoroughly depressing if we're in the bottom half at the end of the day.

    Perspective going into todays game

    As much as its fun seeing them struggle I'd much rather be in their position. I think if another billionaire fancies a go at running a football club Villa would be near the top of the list. Huge catchment area, big ground with lots of recent improvements. Land next to the ground for potential...

    Interesting selection. Surely can't be worse than last week.

    Villa

    Norwich at home to Newcastle today, they could get a win. If they do then we're only going to be a week or two from it being mathematically impossible for Villa to stay up.

    Millwall 16/04

    Have the football supporters federation said anything about this sort of treatment for your fans? I'd be tempted to look into legal action. I can't see how it is right to block all supporters of a particular team from attending games, including games they aren't even playing in.

    Millwall 16/04

    If the police are blocking the club from selling tickets can we claim compensation off them?

    Got zero confidence that we'll win this. Not got much more confidence that we'll win again this season. They seem to have given up and be thinking of the beach / golf course already.

    Walking Dead Season 6

    Think that rumour started as he has the lead in a film however its being made by the same company that makes TWD so I'm sure if they wanted to they could make sure the shooting schedules don't clash.

    Ricoh Railway Station

    How long after the game until they stop at the Ricoh? If you pop into the casino for a pint would that kill enough time?
