Why should he be expected to let it go when he is commenting on a thread about MON and Aston Villa?  Why should anybody be expected to let it go when the media quite clearly aren't yet?

"The media" involvement in this thread consisted of one single sentence in a 1000 word 1/4 page article, in a full Sunday Times broadsheet sports supplement. Poor old Gnasher writes more about MON in a day on the forums than the entire British media machine does in a week.

But the telling line in this article is "if MON can't get Villa into the top 4 then who can".  The thread title is also about MON.  If you want to write a thousand comments on that in this thread then why shouldn't you?

If the thread was entitled "What formation do you think Ancelotti would play at Villa" and he was banging on about MON all through it then fair enough.

No I love him Gregg just like you do, which is why I understand your hurt - but you've got to move on mate

Surrey villain read my post again he is a bell end for a whole host of reasons, and not just because he is having a go at Villa.

I read your entries in Heroes & Villains and take them on face value.  I don't need (or want) to know your life story.

It seems to have escaped his attention that despite MON's heroics at Villa, he STILL hasn't managed to find gainful employment and only seems to be linked to, for want of a better word, shit vacancies.

My guess: 3 and a half feet.
To be fair finding gainful employment was not really possible until his tribunal was resolved

I think Greg does us all a service by continuing to highlight the malevolent effect Martin O'Neill is still having on our club.

Look at today's Daily Mirror, hold your nose and turn to pages 68 and 69 written by Oliver Holt.  Read his comment about Darren Bent "Missed an absolute sitter which would have won the game.   Did not work hard enough either. Goal hanger."

That's it.   The razor sharp intellect of the man who has himself described as Britain's Best Football Journalist and Football Editor.   Goal hanger.   It's what little kids in the school playground call each other.

Holt has had a vendetta going against Darren Bent for months.   Why?   Because Randy stumped up the money for Gerard to buy him but would not stump up the money for Martin O'Neill to buy Roy Keane or any of the other rubbish playing in Scotland O'Neill had the hots for.

Holt also slags off Downing for missing a very difficult chance in the dying seconds and also James Milner who carries the Holt Mark of Cain that he has never played for Manchester United but did play for Villa. 

Ashley Young is singled out for eulogies of praise because he is shortly no longer going to be a Villa player.

Greg is to be applauded for keeping these manipulative and mischievous journalists under the magnifying glass like e coli bacteria.

..........................

Well I base my opinion on Rod Liddle on what he has wrote across a range of articles and things I have read about him. In my job I have to read a wide range of media. I'm afraid based on what I have read and what I know of him Rod Liddle is odious however if you 'enjoy' reading it go for it. I understand he has some full length books you may wish to delve into too.

Rod Liddle could write that we are the greatest club in the world and that he has supported us since he was a boy and I'd still think he was a c**t.

I had a geriatric moment and wrote that O'Neill wanted to sign Roy Keane and got the wrong name.   It was of course Roy Orbison he wanted.   Got knocked back anyway because he wanted to play in black home and away and was in fact dead.
