This season. I used to enjoy those. Vinny or who was the other one? Collyrob? Come on! Get it together.

The last time I did this was September 2015.

Vinny
It's great you're doing this item, but I think we need to put it in the hands of someone with a bit more "gumption".
Match reports, injury news etc - you're the man. But taking the piss out of the opposing fans (which to me is equally as important as the fucking result), and you're lost.
Really and truly, no offence meant, but if we're going to have a "View from the Opposition" thread, then we need to base it around friction, piss-take, tribalism and, dare I say it, banter?
So, up your fucking game or off-load it. And yes, I would be prepared to take it on.
===============
I agreed to this idea.
To this date peroni has never done a View from the opposition.

Anybody slagging off my match thread, would be propping up a motorway somewhere, especially as I've gone upmarket and moved from pie and mash to avocado.
Some of the above, may not be true.

Many people have attempted to pick up where Vinny left off, but to no avail.
The bottom line is Vinny was the best and I don't blame him for fucking it off with messages like that.
Thanks Peroni

Vinny is too busy criticising people on Twitter to do this.

The problem with this piece is that you're relying on the opposition supporter being witty.
All questions came from members of WHO, all I did was choose the best ones and ask them. If they don't bite then you have a bland article.
Some were ok, some were like pulling teeth.

I'm surprised anyone takes Peroni's posts seriously, to be honest.

I used to really enjoy View from the Opposition.
Some of them were funny, some of them were actually insightful and yes some were dull, but if we did something similar for other teams depending who answered they would be equally as rubbish or not.

I always look for Vinny's posts, and 'View from the Oppo' was one of the best

I'm with Peroni on this and I would like him to bring his proven intellectual heft to bear in the future.

How can you get prepared to play a team if you dont know what flavour crisps they like?
And Monster Munch aint crisps. Quavers are a dodgy controversy an' all

i did this for a bit the end of last seaono and i really enjoyed doing it. unfortunately i had a new contract for work come up and just couldn't dedicate the time to do it, it takes longer than you think.
i didn't mind the name calling, as Vinny said before it is only as good as the questions you lot give and the respondent.
i had great help from mods to get it up but it is tough when you don't get the replies until late.
i am happy to do it again if there is a demand but would really appreciate if a couple of people don't mind giving a bit of time to help me with a couple of the things that need doing. i am sorry but with work and the travel i have to do for it i just don't have tall that time each week to put towards it.

Think you're all seeming to forget that the original VFTO threads were awarded 'fan forum thread of the year' in the Daily Mirror and these were done by One Macca
Along with 'normal' fans he had, Jason Roberts when he played for Blackburn, Adrian Chiles for WBA and Lawro for Liverpool.

That's right and as I remember, Lawro and Roberts were ok but Chiles was a proper nobhead
