I had a run in with one of the mail lot on twitter earlier this week and they wonder why they get stick when they come out with this sort of crap.

I saw that Risso (presuming it's the same one from here) pulled Wollaston up on Twitter earlier in the week. 

Guilty as charged.

What was it about? Mine was with Mat Kendrick. He had a bit of a pop back.

Kendrick's alright, he is a Villa fan and indeed rightly called the club out towards the end of his spell as Villa correspondent.

It's people like Gregg Evans I can't stand. Poor Journalist, dosen't support the club (not a problem if you're professional) but big problem  when you start taking petty and sly digs out in your match reports.

Amused me earlier this season. He took a holiday and came back for the Palace midweek home game  just after the Wycombe game when it all kicked off. He actually tweeting an appeal asking people why we were booing Lescott and Bacuna....errr mate that's your job to find out and you really should know it yourself.

The Mail seem to have an obsession with video content these days.

"Click here to hear Gregg Evans talk about Villa's prospects next year"

Who would give one tenth of one single fuck about what Gregg Evans thinks of that?

Gregg 'door-wedge-head’ Evans, in his Mondeo, in a lay-by, in the rain, spouting thinly-veiled anti-Villa tripe, isn't the kind of video I want to watch, ever.

He can't write to save himself, so it is one alternative.

The other one is the Mail could make him play marbles on the M6.

That's because they have an advert at the start of each one.

Desk sharing.  Now, one of you f*** off in your car and make a video recording and don't forget to pick up the sandwiches on the way back.

Its like they don't want anyone to read their content or advertise with them, there must be something going on. Has the editor shorted their shares?

In their usual supportive way they concentrate almost solely on one purported member of the new board.

By the way Paulie, if you are interested Greg has uploaded a new 1.22 video on 'what the new regime must do'.

Yep, under the title of "Who is on the New Aston Villa Board?", they only have speculation that Samuelson might be on it and one line on the appointed CEO. Then mention we might get other positions filled at some point as well.

As for the video, I haven't clicked on it but Gregg now looks like he is filming from his bedroom.
