I don't mind an owner who likes to poke fun at Small Heath.  We do it all the time.  He is only a young bloke.  We have had enough of owners who position themselves on the lofty heights.  Cringeworthy is letting Ferguson choose our manager.

The small heath trolling was hardly anything major either, he was just taking the piss. That last tweet is interesting. Johnstone maybe... Or a young/ Barry return...

I reckon it's "I fell in love too soon, had to sign divorce papers and felt a bit of a prick".

I thought the small heath trolling was a bit unnecessary but it was amusing seeing them bite. As for the transfer tweets, it's just a bit of fun I suppose and keeps it interesting, even if some of the clues are straight out of an episode of 3-2-1.

We got a player lined up but he just needs to sign the contract, not done yet but stick a pin in it? Glenn Whelan?

And pin rhymes with bin. Yes, that's right. You've won Dusty Bin!

Not sure calling someone a jerk is the best way for him to respond.

To be fair the guy has quoted a random story about some dodgy chinese business practices which contains no reference to recon or Xia and tried to suggest it should worry Villa fans.  The guy is shit-stirring so I'm more than happy for Xia to call him out on it.

I am as well, but i'd like to think he can do a better job of it rather than just calling him a jerk.

It does appeal to the inner schoolboy. Bit like Krulak's wrestling pigs thing. When h I acknowledge didn't end too well...

He already coined the term ''jerkalist'' to call-out some other hack recently. Think of it as a recurring motif, brandished when his integrity is being questioned.

You tell'em, Tone.
