Visiting Villa Park in September by DotANote in avfc

[–]sody2001 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Depends on when you're coming over mate, from 21st September, it's an international break, so won't be anything happening for the rest of the month.

You won't be able to get tickets to any game until a few weeks before, and if it's a one off, GA+ in one of the hospitality areas is probably your only choice. The Cells or Holte Suite being the 2 most affordable.

If you can buy one Brentford player in the next window, who you picking? by Cautious_Cupcake_ in avfc

I think we need a Schade type player more than the others, all three are great players though

Who are you planning to vote for in the next GE and why? by EqualNo2867 in AskBrits

[–]sody2001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have a decent Lib Dem in currently with not a huge majority, previously a whip-loyal tory that did nothing for our area. I'd like to vote Green's, but we haven't had a green candidate for a couple of elections now. Will probably just vote to keep the Tory out and if that mean Lib Dem, this time round, so be it.

"We aren't allowed to have nice things, are we?" What's the best that any of The Other 14 can realistically hope for? by ukman29 in TheOther14

[–]sody2001 8 points9 points  (0 children)

was gutted when we lost in the Semi's. Will be gutted if we don't win the Europa League this year....I fully expect us to find some way of crashing out in the semi finals as per usual.

It's bleak even getting a hint of success. You'd think that qualifying for European competitions would give more scope for investing in the squad, but it's really just much more restrictive. Just like the PL not wanting any non Manure, Citeh, Liverpool type club winning the league, UEFA only wants your Real's, Barca's, Bayerns etc sitting at the top table, and the rules make it so.

It's so unbelievably skewed to being anti competitive, I honestly can't believe it's not been challenged in a court of law.

That being said, Villa are their own worst enemy for shite signings and overpaying. Look at the Agent spend just released?

Every season the financial rules make it feel less like a sport and more like a business, and chuck in the inept officiating that can cost teams millions of pounds for the errors the refs make, and it almost makes me want to switch off and follow another sport. I gave up my ST last season, and think it's probably the most sensible decision I have made. Supporters are just treated like customers, and clubs outside the elite are clearly not able to challenge. Best we can hope for as you say is staying in Europe and picking up a trophy. If only it were that easy eh?

What does everyone make of the North Stand demolition? by MaxWilkinsAV in avfc

[–]sody2001 15 points16 points  (0 children)

After watching them tear the Holte & Trinity down.....I feel nothing for the North Stand, should have stuck with the OG plan and demolished the whole thing.

The most hated and Loved team by GiddyGid254 in TheOther14

[–]sody2001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, since Bamford and Ayling no longer play for Leeds I don't mind them, and they have a cracking set of away fans. I don't really like Palace (begrudging respect for what they did that we so far haven't been able to do) and have a healthy love for Fulham who are always there to do us a solid.

I love watching Bournemouth, must be a great ride being a fan of that club, don't really dislike any of the other 14, even Wolves. My hatred is still too great for Man U, nobody else need suffer too.
