Off you go and start one.
You can start with how your seasons in tatters and your manager is a tatical failure.

Harsh.

For the Champions League game I agree that the decision to leave Henry on was mystifying and taking off Baptista whilst only 1-0 up baffling but he's still one of the all time great managers, who gets very little cash chucked his way.

Like I said, it's a bad patch. And Hleb and Senderos are big contributors to the badness lately.

So ThomasJStamp, what team inspires you with beautiful football then?

We shall gloss over Arsenals total inability to either score from, or defend corners so.

Ahhh, my team do be Watford. "Not as bad as West Ham" should be the club motto.

They are only marginally more professional than Bohs but at least they're still in the FA Cup.
:D

It's baffling, it results in much shouting at the telly. It's not like we're short on height or strength. Lehman spends the corners playing the victim, 'Don't touch me'. Nutter.

Best of luck in the Cup. No one will ever be worse than West Ham.

MoTD. I can't stand most of the Irish commentators.
But with Sky & PremPlus and tuned in ITVs, there's not much left to watch once Saturday's over! It's a footie-friendly house.

Dont know, I watch MoTD at 7.30 Sunday with the kids. Then, for a giggle, Jimmy Hills Football Supplement and then Goals on Sunday.

I avoid news and that on a Saturday night so i dont ruin my sunday am telly.

Edit: forgot MoTD2 which is quality falling asleep telly.

I dont know about that. Im a Villa fan who likes to laugh at the top flight. (its all we can do since Big Ron left us.)

Anyway, as Louise and I were pushing the oul trolley around the Supermarket today, I spotted a Yorkie Easter Egg that included a Subbuteo Free Kick set. Of course, I bought it, ate the bar and egg and Im now staring at this beautiful set on my table. (will photograph it eventually)

I was thinking of working out a few set pieces ala free kicks and sending them to Staunton, should his Irish team ever find themselves in that position. But in fairness theres many more needy in the premiership.

Watford? (your havin a laugh Stamp.)

Arsenal? Poor mans Man U. (Funki, Im shocked)

Chelsea? (Cetic Tiger " I hate ManU, but crave success to match my lifestyle" type supporter)

All this from a humble Villa supporter. I'll shut up now, the Labatts Ice is going to my head.

You could add how much you're looking forward to being relegated by Man U on the last day of the season....

Poor in cash balances only to Man U. Wheeler, you've made an enemy.
Any non-Manu U fan that indirectly supports Man U should be strung up!

The seats on the hill - nothing cheap and temporary, no buckets. Truely The GAA urinate all over the FAI.

Most under-5's football clubs are better run than anything the FAI could do. And to think everything was going to magically change after Genesis.

if you want a laugh go look at the Genesis report - you will note that all the changes to the management and committee section have been strangely unimplemented.

Funny that.

Bucket seats are banned by Fifa, thats the reason for the "permanant" seats which can be easily uninstalled.

Oh and I'm a Spurs fan :cool:

When I first heard about the FAIs Genesis report, I immediately thought of Star Trek. Look what happened to the Genesis project in those movies. And to think the FAI have managed to surpass exploding planets, Khan and the rebirth of Spock.

Those seats on the hill are bolted in I assume? Looks great.

Genesis II is even worse. I think it says something like all grounds near the city centre should be sold off for more apartments and everyone should support the sh****ck r***rs.
