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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Now where have I heard that before. Worked out really well last time :facepalm:

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.

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.

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.

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.

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?

As in they sponsor it or did they set the whole thing up?

spin spin spin Its a great success in the same way the second half of our season has been a great success!

Is there anyone who has the sort of money it would need? Even if a city fan won £100m on the Euro Millions it might not be enough. Our best hope might be a Russian / Arab / Chinese business locate to the city and decide to pump huge amounts into the club. Can't see it happening.

I would highly doubt the council have that sort of power, although I didn't expect the CT to be holding back stories for their benefit either. Its not like its a typo or something, its a deliberate change. If I had to guess who had prompted the change I'd go for someone at the CT as they are...
