mattyg 1,862 Posted July 1, 2017 Report Share Posted July 1, 2017 Some good points and some absaloutly delusional ramblings as far as Scottish teams joint the English set up. I'm a villa fan, any glory days we once had are well and truely gone for the time being. Trying and failing to buy our way out of the current situation. You want history? Villa park has all the history you need! Matt 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

THE STIFFMEISTER 16,194 Posted July 1, 2017 Report Share Posted July 1, 2017 Lol Have villa ever had a player like James mcgrory? Have 125000 opposition fans ever cheered a villa players every touch? It happened to jimmy Johnstone, not once but twice...against red star Belgrade and real Madrid Do villa have 8 million supporters? You are based in the uks second biggest city yet can't even fill a 40000 seater stadium, We get more turning up against st mirren and Motherwell Villa bigger than Celtic....mentally ill Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mattyg 1,862 Posted July 1, 2017 Report Share Posted July 1, 2017 James who? Sorry mate, your Celtic knowledge is far superior to anything I may know. I just remember singing the praises of GOD himself..... Paul McGrath. I'd also like to add I don't do religion..... Enjoy your football but don't think for one moment any Scottish team could challenge for anything other than a Scottish championship.

THE STIFFMEISTER 16,194 Posted July 2, 2017 Report Share Posted July 2, 2017 Classic small club fan What else would they challenge for? Hopefully one day, we ll meet in Europe, then again, maybe not...seeing as you lot are in tatters, and look more likely to play Plymouth argyle than us 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mushroom 13,256 Posted July 2, 2017 Report Share Posted July 2, 2017 The Scottish divisions should be amalgamated into the English league and then they will receive the same type of money as the premier teams. At least that would give an even playing field. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Malt 379 Posted July 2, 2017 Report Share Posted July 2, 2017 We had stein , why would we need Shankly? You also seem to forget fergie achieved f**k all until 1990 at old Trafford, rangers were destroying sides in Europe until 1992 when they were cheated and should realistically have won the European cup that year Celtic were in chaos during that time and couldn't open the biscuit tin until McCann took over in 94 Fergie did 'OK' at Aberdeen I seem to recall mate..

THE STIFFMEISTER 16,194 Posted July 2, 2017 Report Share Posted July 2, 2017 He wouldn't have fitted in at either old form club as and when he was available though He went to old Trafford and became the greatest of th all arguably No sour cakes here, he'd outgrown both sides by the time we needed stewardship Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Brigzy 1,298 Posted July 2, 2017 Report Share Posted July 2, 2017 Where's this Rafas £ million spend nonsense coming from ? He spent £50 million on players, and brought in £ million in sales of players, a PROFIT of £30 million !!! Max likes his "facts", perhaps he ought to check them........

THE STIFFMEISTER 16,194 Posted July 2, 2017 Report Share Posted July 2, 2017 Well before my time max but the cult of Shankly certainly overshadows the achievements, rightly or wrongly, of fagan and paisley at anfield You always wonder, what would the busby babes gone on to achieve, it had to have had an affect on the club and of the survivors I always liked the idea that busby, Shankly and stein all knocked about together .. Men from the Same backgrounds rising to the top. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
