I liked the bit when he said that Jack wanted CL football “now”. Rather than in the future.
Wasn't Mark Ansell the CEO in those times when Stride was here? Or was that even Ellis himself? Stride had good contacts in the game, only disappointment was he voted for Wimbledon to move to Milton Keynes, think that was after he left us.In recent times Paul Faulkner was someone way overpromoted and think that's seen by what Purslow acts. Hopefully he's in CEO role for a few more years yet.

Hopefully he's in CEO role for a few more years yet.Ansell was finance director and probably on his way to becoming CEO until he resigned when Bruce Langham got the job (briefly). Stride was generally regarded as the best admin man in football, although he would admit himself that the public-facing aspect of the CEO's job wasn't for him. He was here when the Wimbledon decision was made, although he said later that they hadn't been given anything like the full facts and was just told that it was Milton Keynes or extinction. Faulkner was inexperienced and not helped by the fact that he looked about fourteen and had no other football experience around him.
What i found interesting was how he didnt wish jack well at the end.
Is it me or does the video by Purslow have a single remarkably coincidental glitch in the middle of Grea-lish which makes it 100% sound like Greed-lish? I can’t help but think a Villa fan in VillaTV has deliberately done that. I presume this has been discussed somewhere?

Subtitling a video is a time-consuming job and so I suspect it was automated.
