Parisians often say that the best view of Paris is from the top of the Eiffel Tower, just so you don’t have to look at the Eiffel Tower. Since 2006 my season ticket has been in the North upper. I had to sit in the Holte upper last night. I agree with the Parisians. UTV! #avfc

Blimey. She’s a disaster. So bad it seems as though we’re being gaslit and treated for fools.
This is devastatingly bad

Was at the Warehouse tonight to watch the match. We had the TNT commentary on throughout. Just wondering if any other Villa fans know how many teenagers are in the Barcelona team? Cus it’s not as if the fuckers didn’t stop going on about it every five frigging minutes #avfc

We win or we learn. Thanks for coming and now we must be focus on Sunday. Proud of the team effort and many positives despite tough result. If we come back here in spring we will be better and more prepared. UTV

Don’t think we turned up and gave best account of ourselves tonight. First goal led to more panick at times trying not to repeat what happened. A few good chances but we have to be more cynical. Still, much better teams have gone there and come off worse. A learning curve. #avfc

Here’s Labour’s very own @EmmaforWycombe proving once again that Labour are as thick as shit when it comes to understanding how business operates. Clueless idiots the lot of ‘em!
'I don't think employers are working people.' @CamillaTominey grills Chief Secretary to the Treasury, Emma Reynolds MP, over whether Labour has breached its manifesto pledge in the Budget. 📺 Freeview 236, Sky 512, Virgin 604

I fucking hate Man Utd “fans. Not so much the ST holders and away fans, but the plastic cunts. You know within one sentence from their mouth, that they’ve never even been to OT. Cocky, arrogant cunts who wouldn’t know their Jesper Olsen’s from their Luke Chadwick’s- fuck em!

Since riots are now spreading across Europe, there are some simple things any country that wants to avoid them can announce. Anyone found guilty of rioting/looting: - who is a foreign national will be immediately deported - who is a dual national will be immediately stripped of their citizenship, then deported - who is an asylum seeker or has been granted asylum, will be denied asylum/deported - permanently banned from receiving any benefits/welfare of any kind - given harsh custodial sentences Announce this now and avoid riots or watch your country go down the route of France and Germany.

Jack Dee attempting to remain composed with a Blue Tit on his head while being sung at is the perfect Sunday accompaniment. Feliz Domingo!

Bravo to Arsenal. They can have a trophy for selling millions of shirts worldwide of an overhyped striker. I’d rather have a trophy for when my team actually won the European Cup.
Replying to @AVL8ton
One word….. fanbase ! United,Liverpool and arsenal have a fanbase numbere into the hundreds of millions worldwide generating billions in revenue, Villa do not, and probably never will, for example when gyokeres signed the shirt sales were in excess of 48 million! For one player

Here’s a story for you. We started filming without owning the title and had to do alternates. Taft Broadcasting owned the title Ghostbusters as part of their half-hour sitcom starring Larry Storch and Forrest Tucker (F-Troop) and a gorilla chasing ghosts. I had never heard of it. They didn’t have proton packs or Bill Murray. Columbia paid $500,000 to buy the name, but they really should have paid Dean Martin, from whom I first heard the term. In the film Scared Stiff (1953), he and Jerry Lewis (check out his acrobatic stair descent) are in an old haunted castle, and Lizabeth Scott asks Dean: “Who are you guys?” And Dean answers: “You’ve heard of Trustbusters and Gangbusters, we’re Ghostbusters!” For my research writing the first movie, I watched every single ‘ghost’ comedy ever made. Bowery Boys, Hope and Crosby, Abbot and Costello, Martin and Lewis all did such films. Happy Halloween 2026.

I knew something was a bit different tonight when Villa came out to the theme tune of Rumpole of the Bailey! #avfc *

Carragher may be right, Villa may never match Man United’s size. But before Shankly, neither did Liverpool. Look what he built! Why shouldn’t Villa have our own Busby, Fergie, Shankly, or Paisley? It’s a massive ask, but our absolute biggest chance of that is with Emery. #avfc

A sure-fire way to wind up those arrogant plastic Mancs you know is by telling them there’s more chance of them rocking up at Old Trafford for the first time than there is of Emery leaving Villa for that shitshow of a club. Fuck em’. Arrogant twats. #avfc
