I wouldn’t even want that to happen to Pompey.

I wouldn’t mind watching them almost die (again), but I’d want to them survive. So their fans could continue to suffer.

their fans have to live after their club is dead for eternity and thats the best part .

Agree that there's no need to expand but I don't think we've sold out a single game this season.

Our crowds were slightly better than that in League one too. Averaging 20k+ in both seasons.

Well I took those numbers off the top of my head tbf <laugh>

We may not have sold out this season, but crowds don’t look like they’ve dropped off that much. Looked pretty full on Saturday (which may be partly because Newcastle always bring loads).

Said for a while that we almost need a bigger clubs to go bust for anything to change. Are Villa big enough?

Have said the same mate....imho they are a big club.
They were (until 2016) one of only 7 ever presents in the premier league.
(Along with United, Chelsea, Arsenal, Liverpool, Everton and Spurs).
They were challenging for European places most seasons until about 2012.
They won the league snd the European cup in the 1980s.
And they have a long history of winning trophies.

Every club is as important as any other to the fans and the community so I don't think its worse for Villa to implode than Bury but (like you) I think it will take a big club to implode before proper notice is taken.

Yeah its always there or thereabouts with a couple of thousand swing dependant on form. Definitely not need for expansion.

MK Dons for me.

Agreed...the only time I considered never going to spurs was when there was talk of us moving to Stratford.
It we had moved I would have considered Tottenham gone.
No club should be allowed to move out of their borough let alone move city ffs.

Cheated their way to a football league place. No amount of time since will ever make it okay.
