I don't really care what he has to say. Those who do care can rest assured that sooner or later Wigan will be relegated and he won't be raving about Martinez then. Nor will Martinez be interesting the likes of us or Racist FC. I'd bet good money the time will come next season.

he's also one of the very few chairmen who has played the game at proffesional level

john e here, supporting someone who has gone on record more than once belittling the Villa.


Whelan saying Villa arnt a big club does not bother me one bit, i cant even begin to tell you how totaly unafected i am with how big Dave Whelan thinks we are, same goes for whatever Holloway said.
and yes i like them both.

but i tell you what does piss me of more than than they ever could,
 its someone like Alex Fergusson who strolls into Villa Park says lovely things about the club how we are a 'big club' and 'always a difficut game' 'not taking the resut for granted' yet thats exactly what he does,
 piss all over us and goes away with a guaranteed 3 points, says a few condesending things as he exits and waits to do it all again the following season.

and thats what i call bellitling, not anything Dave Whelan can or does say.

There is also no point in getting all fist shaky about something someone has said in the press. He may be a Twat. Does it really matter? Do we need a whole thread so that angry little men can throw around insults at another angry little man?

Am I wrong to find it a tad pathetic?

God you lot are precious. So what if Whelan wants to shoot his mouth off. I'm not going to lose any sleep over it.
I'd rather he shot a pistol in his mouth...

Whelan has had nothing to do with JJB Sports for 5 years now.

Oh dear. Wish you had told me that half an hour ago.

What could you possibly do to a JJB shop that would make them less appealing?

You do realise that I tell Chris Martin all of the bad things you say about him.

He says it makes him cry, so he bottles the tears and sends them to an African village. So in effect you are helping an African farmer to grow crops for his family.

Right on brother. Feed the World.

This thread is for people to moan about how much of a ****** Dave Whelan is, because he doesn't mind rubbishing our team in the press. If you don't like it, don't read it, its as simple as that.

as i've said before i'm not so simple minded enough to get my knickers in a twist about anything Dave Whelan has to say about us.
i dont mind the bloke, thats true enough
but the thread says Dave Whelan, doesnt give rules and regulations as to what we should be saying on it.

dont get me mixed up with the sheep mentality mate, i'l always post honestly whether you like it or not.
i was only responding to your post about me the last time, if you dont like my response dont post about me.

as you said,  simple as that

OooooOOOOoooooh! I've got my own opinions thanks, no need to get personal.

The fact is that lots of people think he's a twat and want to express it, if you want to call everyone who holds that opinion a 'sheep' and 'simple minded', then crack on. Your suggestion on another thread that the multi-millionaire Dave Whelan is somehow an underdog is laughable by the way.
