I hope one of the under 21s breaks Okore's leg in training. Fuck him.

I'm usually up for some revenge but I'm not sure that will do his price much good. Wait until he's playing in another team and then think about the plan again.

Nah, break them both so he can never play again and we'll claim on the compo.

We've probably only got him insured for third party, fire and theft.

Nah, just third party only.  I think that's the minimum required by law.  It used to be anyway.

It amuses me no end that these mollycoddled fuckwits don't realise that the reason we are a team one might not want to appear for is entirely their own doing. Maybe if some modicum of effort had been put in earlier in the season this wouldn't be the situation.

I don't think there is anyone left to cheer when their name is read out today is there?
Bunn, Green and Lyden maybe...

Okore is shit. He only gets rated because he's missed so much first team action, when he has played he's full of clangers and piss poor marking, plus he's another one who treats the ball like it's dynamite.

Get rid, he'll be getting a reality check.

Aston Villa are the biggest and best club that most of these clowns are ever likely to play for and they've completely fucked it up.

Joined in a bit late on this, but I'm assuming if he's refusing to be involved then we are fining him 2 weeks wages and will continue to do so?

I just want one player to come out and say that he is really upset with how things have gone. That he cares about the club and the fans. And that he will stay next season to do everything in his power to bring us back up. I think I've given up waiting for that.

If one does TV, my money is on Rudy Gestede.

There's more chance of us finishing 17th than that happening.

And Ashley Westwood Brian.  Despite his shortcomings I believe he cares.

Probably. Him, Westwood or Hutton. It's unbelievable how utterly detached the vast majority of the squad is to what this means for the fans.

Westwood cares, but he is also honest enough to know that no other Premier League club will take him.  Villa are the pinnacle of his career, and he works his socks off because he understands that.  He may well be great in the Championship, but if we are honest, at the top level he is a deeply limited (if hardworking) player.  I give him his dues, but if Villa get back into the premier league, we need players with both ability and attitude - unlike Jores - who seems to think the world revolves around him.

Okore showed promise.  Quick to intercept, strong in the tackle, and comfortable with the ball coming out of defence, but he is also prone to dreaming, weak in the air, and his first touch under pressure is awful.  If he had heart I could accept the weaknesses and let him work on them, but with this petulance, let him go, and shame him in the process.

The trouble with storming out is that at some stage you have to storm back in again.

IMO Okore would develop into a decent defender if there were any good defence coaches at BH.
