Unan Posted September 22, 2019 Report Share Posted September 22, 2019 Looks like Villa have thrown away their lead against Arsenal, playing against 10 men for the majority of the game, 3-2 down with 2 minutes left. Edit: 5 minutes injury time, don't let this come back to bite me.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't tell you how upset I am when Villa lose. Actually I can, not at all! Perhaps the PL could change the rules so Villa can exchange their ground for points instead of money this time?

They are in the PL solely on the back of selling their ground to avoid FFP penalties, the EFL having obligingly changed the rules to benefit badly run big clubs. The modern twist on financial doping. As to their fans, they have a sense of entitlement that makes Forest fans look endearingly modest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The very same people who shed crocodile tears over the demise of Bury actively seek to encourage financial mismanagement that could jeopardise the future of other clubs by introducing rules that allow them to game the system. What happens to Villa as an institution for instance if they are relegated, having spent what must amount to something like £200m when agents' and signing on fees plus wages are included, and they can't sell their ground again? Love the game, hate the business and all that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your 1st comment was “and?”... what sort of debate does that start? It’s a sarcastic reply. Your 3rd post was more of a debate starter. If you want a debate, have a think about how you start it and you might get some interesting conversations going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a shame as this forum can be good for conversation at times It's not about hating other teams, it's probably more about enjoying watching other teams fail. I enjoy Cardiff, rovers, Leeds failing. Villa are another team many people enjoy losing. If you're not interested, don't post in the thread! Responding with comments such as 'And?' is ridiculous, when the OP has made a thread about a football game, in a football forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
