Didn't the guy who invented segways die after reversing over a cliff on a Segway?

Nope. He bought Segway then reversed off a cliff.

All in we will have paid him about £20m across the contract plus signing on fee etc.

[ciggiesnbeer]

I find it hard to get worked up about him any more. He has played some bit part role in keeping us up the past few seasons, completely underperformed the rest of the time. Signing a player who didnt work out on massive wages is hardly unique to Villa at least we are doing them in batches of one or two these days, not by the dozen like we used to. We have bigger problems these days.

Charlie appears to be peddling the line that its Sky's money.

The real problem is our deeply engrained one of not acting soon enough, to whit, dithering. We should never have let him run his contract down.  He was a McLeish vanity purchase and he should have gone when McLeish went.

[Drummond]

Every single time we have a string of poor results someone brings up a player who isn't getting into the squad and decides they could be our saviour. Despite that same player being derided by the vast majority for a lengthy period of time. See also Bent D. Hutton A.

If you ever needed somebody to be the personification of 'what's wrong with the modern game,' Charlie would be it.

I don't blame him, he got given the contract, but fuck me. What a huge amount of money for such little return.

[PaulTheVillan]

Don't blame him for getting paid as much as he can.

He's not worth that much money.

He needs to move on, for everyone's sake.

[Phil from the upper holte]

I was please when we signed him but he's been a fucking arrogant waste of space since the moment he arrived

What got me is we extended the contract
