I thought it looked like an IKEA showroom, still some little marketing graduate will be feeling very proud of their work this evening so it's not all been for nothing.

Bold claim when you consider we’ve got Georges, La Lupas and Revolutions

You are still stuck in the 80s. Move with the times man.

Sounds like a bargain. Does that £300 include the opportunity to purchase some very expensive food like the Gas Works or is that included in the price?

Other clubs name their lounges after famous players, areas of the city or success they've had, we name ours after a tree.

Im always amused by people that bang on about continuity often quoting a manager at a really big club as a reason why things dont turn around overnight. It seems Arteta is the current example of look how great it is if you stick with the manager. People used to quote that Alex Ferguson took 4 years to win anything at Man United almost like sticking with a manager however shite they are is suddenly some guarantee of success years down the line. Martins defences leaked goals in the championship, this season we're currently on course to conceded 82 which would be the 4 highest of any club in the last ten years and guarantees relegation. If Martin had a history of water tight defences then he might have a defence but he hasn't, every team he has managed concedes a bucket load and i think MOTD showed on saturday that 7 of our goals conceded this season have been due to errors playing out in dangerous areas. Im sure if we stick with him in 4 years time it'll be worth it though

any chance of bullet points?

You're all wrong the self titled greatest league in the world is the a glorious celebration of everything that is wonderful about soccerball. We have the chance to see some of the worlds greatest soccerballists playing at our little club whilst at the same time have access to 24 hour 7 days a week information at our finger tips, regular "breaking news" about what Pep is saying, what Ten Haag thought of sundays enthralling nil all tie along with fascinating tactical and statistical analysis of every game, every player ever move before we even mention the excitement VAR has added to the game as we nervously wait for 5 minutes to see if a player is 2mm offside and the goal will stand or not. Together with the the endless opportunities to virtue signal and constantly improving selection of foodstuffs in the concourses i would say there has never been a better time to be part of the English Premier Soccerball league.

Injured again FFS

Skinny jeans is so 2023 pal, it’s baggy now with Adidas Sambas for the hipster look

You even get it at kids football. Last week we played away against a Leeds team and they had the goalkeeper taking goal kicks to one of two players inside the penalty area like you see premier clubs do FFS. We absolutely thrashed them of course. So far this season they've played 4 games scored 3 and conceded 46. The worst thing is they aren't bad players and could be a better team but It was absolutely ridiculous to watch as another coach. Trying to get 11 year old grass roots kids to play like Man City is absurd when most of them haven't even got ball mastery yet. Everytime the tried it they got pressed and either lost it, misplaced the pass or kicked it out for a throw in.

when you're manager of one of the worlds biggest clubs with some of the worlds best players who are winning major trophies every season with most players in the world desperate to take you place at said club then you can do that. Martin isn't and doesn't have that luxury, he's never even beat a top flight team over 90 minutes has he?

I dont think anyone particularly dislikes him, we all want him to do well. Most people seem to agree that it's a bit strange the manager seemed to find a way of playing him no matter what last season in some very strange positions too. It also doesn't help that his introduction to the team in 2017 came off the back of Van Dijk being injured and Fonte leaving which really highlighted the gap in quality between a very good defender and a bottom half one.

it was, i heard that too

lol, what a night. 1995 IIRC. Hilarious seeing the mighty 657 bouncing up and down hiding behind the police from the DEF then knocking down walls and attacking the police as they desperately tried to get away once they heard the gates were opening and we were being let out. Funny how they tried to spin it that they were trying to get to us when everyone saw them running in the opposite direction 🤣

The simple fact is this. Despite being chased by AC Milan and being a dream maker who turned a near bankrupt league one football club into a champions league ready Premier league power all through sheer ambition and business brilliance 11 years after leaving he's never worked in football again. Why is that? You'd think club all over the world would be knocking his door down.

what a joker, praising the team for doing okay when the game was already lost

i think you'll find most of Aston Villas fan base is in our catchment area.

I think you’ll find some people will care. Some people have been incandescent with rage over politicians private lives so itll be very interesting if they apply similar standards should any news like the above break. 👀👀👀👀👀

I guess they can’t do it on a Wednesday night in Stoke

😂

Perhaps that explains the issues, given the intensity of the premier league he's knackered by the 20th minute due to the lack of protein so cant coach the team properly. Would explain our good starts with subsequent 3 goal collapses against Man United, Bournemouth and Brentford recently plus the late goal v Ipswich.

Depends what oil they're cooked in.

top flight experience, winner, can organise a defence, attacks with purpose. Get it in the mixer!!

Remember when Les Reed thought we were going to get Thomas Tuchel
