But I'll never forget how he fucked us over and walked out 5 days before the start of the season, which is possibly the most disgusting thing any Villa employee has ever done to our great club.Sorry, but after reading that from someone with your name I have to smile. Well I forgive the great man because unlike O'Neill he won us a trophy or two!

He was ambitious, Young Doug isn't as ambitious, so he walked.
Thanks for the decent finishes.Thanks for the season and a half of decent football.No thanks for two years of mindnumbing cack at home.No thanks for shopping exclusively in the overpriced home market then having the nerve to moan about money.And no thanks at all for the spiteful way you fucked us up this week. Still, can't have your copy book blemished by having to use your noggin rather than spend your way out of a tight spot, so bollocks to us and off you go.
Let's stop the sanctimony and nit picking over my turn of phrase.Ok, proud I have always been so don't question that (even through inference).But let's not forget just how shit and low we were after Pug Nose Twunt departed. Plus we were (up until a season and ahalf ago) a good team to watch again.He was ambitious, Young Doug isn't as ambitious, so he walked. Poor timing I will concede that.

That would be the 'Young Doug' who has put £180 million into the club and genuinely given us four years of pride has it?

How much did Doug (or his backers) put into the club in his first few years. This is a genuine question as I do not know the answer and of course the sums would have been relative to the day.
