A question about the local press coverage

[Dr.Feelgood]

Im sick of the media coming out with the ' its where he came from '

Look , if Blose had finish 5th or 6th  twice and won the FA Cup , and played great football.  I would have been over the moon ,
even If he had come from Blose.

ITS HIS CRAP FOOTBALL !!!!!!

I couldn't agree more... the trouble is, the Media 'feed' off the club & therefore maintain the relationship - for fear of falling from favour... the whole 'machine' / system stinks - it's almost as bad as politics. GIVE US SOME HONESTY !

Why were fans at Man City delighted about signing Tevez? But we didn't want McShit? Talent.

Thats the difference.

Brilliant point

Exactly.  If we'd pinched Mourinho off Blues we'd all have been delighted.

It's a point I've made elsewhere, but I feel very angry that the media use fans as a proxy for criticism, rather than having the balls to ask a direct question.

Rather than saying: `hey Alex, your record is appalling, what's up with that?', they say 'ooh Alex, isn't it terrible what the so-called-fans were chanting at you?'

Talking of headlines, has the Mail had a double page spread yet with a picture of the Villa badge split in half and a banner headline running accross the top " Villa in crisis...Villa in crisis...Villa in crisis..."

I'll be disappointed if they havent

In a nutshell negates any issues in relation to where he came from - fantastic summerisation and should be used at every opportunity

Exellant point concisely made. Possibly your best quote since "Formula 1, why don't they just go round once"?

Wasn't Kendrick banned by O'Neill?  I guess he toadies up to them because he wants to keep his job rather than tell the truth.

[Lee]

This point is quite hysterically being made all over Twatter and Blogs. At first, I thought it was basically a just a "woe is me" scenario. However, there does seem to be a lack of cutting questioning not only to The Manager, but the CEO and the Missing Yank.

[Mister E]

This is excellent - at last a journo who  wants to talk about the real problem.

[Handsworth Wood Villa]

The media defend him because he is a nice guy.

Problem is he is a crap manager.

Indeed. I've never heard the media report that Heskey cops flak from the crowd because he played for that lot.

No need to throw beans around, just because we're in crisis!
