is it just me, or are any other villa fans concerned that o'neill is trying to turn us into a home for celtic old boys? we've got petrov, agathe and sutton, now we are being linked in the papers to balde and even larsson!

[Summers]

Are you telling me you'd complain, if O'Neill had actually managed to convince Larsson to join us?

[Bigal]

If he improves the team, why care who he signs?

[Guest Tequilla Rockin' Bird]

O'Neil seems to be looking for stop-gap signings for this season, I wouldn't get worried about it. I'd be happy with finishing in the top half this season, I'm sure he has the backing of Lerner to buy big, but wisely, in the summer.

[9 to 5]

Don't worry Villa boys, you will be raping us for 3 points on sunday.

[gunnar hendershow]

In other news Newcastle have the opportunity to get multiple points in a match against Sheff U. Could it really happen?!

[fkndka]

No course i wouldnt mind if he brought larsson in. but itrs just how he keeps going on in the paper that he isnt looking to bring in stop-gaps, but then seems like her clearly is. great player that larsson is, its not building for the future!

anyone see yesterdays evening mail btw? Aparantly if performances dont improve the likes of baros could be shipped out come january!

and newcastle? multiple points?! Surely not!

He's said he does have Lerner's backing. Lerner apparantly said "don't worry about expect money. Sign who you want to." S'what I heard, anyway.

I hope so. As much as I love you. I hope so.

Stop-gaps are needed. Lerner hadn't fully taken over, the money wasn't there. So he made two good (free) signings to fill some gaps & then brought in Petrov, who can improve the team, for sure.

I wouldn't mind seeing Baros go, if we're actually interested in Keane or Defoe & put in a serious effort to sign players of that level.

It's also lovely to see so many Villa fans on here.

[therockbox]

I still can't believe that we managed to get almost £7m for Baros, that was a ridiculous signing by O'Leary.

[gunnar hendershow]

Watford are going to fucking win.

[therockbox]

Decent win for Liverpool, we're starting to put a half decent run together now. Crouch and Kuyt seem to be forming a good partnership, and I'd like to see them get a couple more games together.

I've got a feeling the match at Arsenal is going to be a defining point in the season for us, if we can get anything from the game then it's a platform to hopefully go on and pick up a lot of points against a relatively kind looking Christmas fixture list. Lose and we're back to square one again, so hopefully Arsenal will forget how to score again.

newcastle 0 - 1 sheff utd

any championship club fans here? see you next season

what's also made me upset is that after his fantastic newcastle debut, Tim Krul doesnt even get a place on the subs bench! (unless he is injured)

Looks like we won't have to wait long to face Sunderland again.

[9 to 5]

Anyone know where I can listen to the Villa/Blackburn game?

[Guest Ringo Masterson]

Come on you Spurs, beat those Russians. Dawson and Lennon have been particularly godly today.

[Guest Ringo Masterson]

HAHAHAHA TAKE THAT JOHN TERRY.

[therockbox]

COME ON SPURS~

[Guest Ringo Masterson]

MOTHERFUCKING YES. TAKE THAT YOU DIVING, MOANING CUNTS.

This is like bizarro world.

I mean really, Makelele scored

But yes, best game of the season, best victory of the season, come on you Spurs, fuck Chelsea, and more importantly, after a year of cheating, moaning and handballing, John Terry finally gets a fucking red card.

Lennon, Dawson, Ledley, Benoit, Chimbonda, Robbo and Keane were absolutely magnificient. Again, AWESOME, AWESOME GAME.

[Liam]

One of these days I'll love people to accept that a captain, out of all the players, is going to go to the referee to complain about decisions. All captains do it, then get labelled "moaners". Doesn't make much sense to me.
