CitySlam Posted May 27, 2019 Report Share Posted May 27, 2019 I agree, hopefully Villa are weakened by FFP next season. Also we would no longer have to hear about Lampard who would become just another prem manager. It's already being reported that we are backing the rams, after being incited by Lee Johnson https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/serious-ffp-problems-play-final-16332346 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBFC II Posted May 27, 2019 Report Share Posted May 27, 2019 It’s the worst possible final tbh but if I had to choose it would be Villa for me, they would have much more of a chance of winning the league next season and personally I can’t wait to see the back of them Plus sky wouldn’t have their wankfest over the overrated Frank Lampard, happy days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chappers Posted May 27, 2019 Report Share Posted May 27, 2019 Villa fans not impressed with Lee or City. Teams will try and buck FFP, if it works, PL, but as it won’t most of the time, there will be payback. Just keep doing what we are doing, stay sustainable, and let’s not worry what is happening elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cider hoss rules Posted May 27, 2019 Report Share Posted May 27, 2019 Derby for me, the BBC and Sky can then have their dream of FLDC to cream over. Also the fall out for Villa, it will be fun watching them implode and their adorable fans crying over how unfair it is that a massive club like that should automatically be given a place in the top league.

Can you imagine my relief now that I know you don’t actually have one. I don’t know what these threads would do without clarification on your indifference, so thank you for saving us all from spending our bank holiday distracted by your position.

Guest Posted May 27, 2019 Report Share Posted May 27, 2019 Cannot see how Villa won't beat them comfortably myself, but there could be an upset. Prefer Derby to go up as detest Aston and their arrogance, but I just don't see it happening. Wonder how many dives and feigning injuries there will be, along with holding body parts that haven't been touched? Both have cheated throughout the season at every single opportunity, and seemed to have had decisions aplenty go for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same for me... Also I hope that FFP rips into the club who after being bankrupt at the start of the season spent £3 - 3.5 million on Tammy's wages alone! If Birmingham were docked 9 points it should be interesting to see what happens to Ashton Villa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreedyHarry Posted May 27, 2019 Report Share Posted May 27, 2019 Derby to win for me. They'll get dicked most week's in the prem. Villa staying down has so many upsides: * Complete meltdown of their arrogant twatty fans. *FFP could come home to roost and make them all the weaker. * Introduction of VAR in the Championship will make them weaker still as the video evidence of their cheating comes home to roost. ....and in the real world, Derby are shit so can't see them winning today however much I want the above to happen.

cidered abroad Posted May 27, 2019 Report Share Posted May 27, 2019 Heart says Derby Head says Villa Dream says NEITHER. Too many reasons why but just two stand out to me. Semenyo red card when Huddlestone ploughed into him a second after Semenyo had won the ball cleanly. That appalling decision for a penalty to Villa, when their player is clearly backing into Hunt and then handles the ball on his way down when Hunt steps back. Am I bitter? Yes!

Swede Posted May 27, 2019 Report Share Posted May 27, 2019 The lesser of two evils, so FLDC for me. FL leaves for his beloved chelski for next season and then they loose the three loanees as their parent club's won't sell so that everyone can plainly see they are just an average championship team who then beat their own record for the least number of points in a season. Vile on the other hand implode into a Portsmouth like FFP melt down that they deserve and get points deducted to counterract all of the dubuous penalties they'll get and the ultimate ignomy of relegation to the bowels of league 1.

Meh Posted May 27, 2019 Report Share Posted May 27, 2019 This final is the worse-case scenario. Personally hope FLDC win Villa implode and have to sell Grealish et al SL invests heavily and we get Tammy back to fire us to top spot as the missing link next season. FL goes to Chelski as manager anyway and loses most games due to the ridiculousness of appointing such an inexperienced manager in the first place. XXDC come down after amassing a single digit total points value all season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

handsofclay Posted May 27, 2019 Report Share Posted May 27, 2019 Hope it goes to extra-time and pens. Then when it comes to sudden death pens whenever Derby miss one, Villa miss one and whenever Derby score one, Villa do likewise and the shootout is still in progress at the start of next season and doesn't finish until some time in November by which time it's too late for the winner to take their place in the prem and Frank Lampard has been away from home for so long that Christine Breaknee divorces him. But can't see it happening really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yet there are still too many on here thinking that splashing big cash is the answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leveller Posted May 27, 2019 Report Share Posted May 27, 2019 Difficult to choose, but I dislike Derby more. Both “entitled” but at least Villa do have a genuinely impressive history, while Derby, like Forest, just had one short period of success under Clough.
