Also, you can have a job and love it and the 'employer'. I know I do.

PLEASE tweet, Tony!

It's a job for a player. What was Doug "Villa in the blood" Ellis' excuse while he was doing the tour of the shit and small?

It's a job for a director as well. God knows why you think it should be classed as anything different.

That's fair enough as an abstract proposition but Ads was responding to the suggestion that Deadly had 'Villa in the blood.'

I don't give a monkeys fuck, we were a far more professionally run club under Deadly than anything that has followed. True?

I'm not saying the fool had Villa in the blood am I. That's some nonsense right there.

Mortimer didn't have Villa in the blood. He was a professional. Ellis is ridiculously being lauded as if he were one of us. I wouldn't play for the Noses, I have Villa in the blood.

I thought the point was obvious, god knows why you'd think otherwise.

Possibly, but it's an achievement of 'the Netherlands' highest mountain' nature i.e hardly saying much.

Is this Gregg Nash? Some spectacular goal post shifting. Let's move through the nonsense step by step.

Ellis was only "professional" enough to realise Steve Stride new a hell of a lot more about football administration than he would ever hope to. Pity the years of working under the pocket lining milstone sent him into retirement.

Well said, but there's some who'll forever spit venom at anything Ellis related but go easy on the man who quite frankly turned Villa into a genuine laughing stock then ran away.

Of course you're right. We had nothing but misery in all the years Ellis was in charge.

Ellis knew precious little about football administration? Blimey.

Crikey. You're so blinkered by your Lerner hatred that you're re-writing history.

The man who dismantled the best side in Europe out of spite, took us down and then was so corner shop the league slowly passed us by.

Our success was down to Taylor, Atikinson and Little, all of whom would have had a better opportunity to take us further had it not been for Ellis.

I said Stride knew a huge amount and implied we'd have benefitted hugely from him with Lerner's money. I've not said what you've blimied at all. So put your straw man away.

Oh turn it in. At Doncaster were you getting twatted by them? At Highbury being embarrassed were you singing "we're just an honest bunch of lads". Praying over whether we could sign Eric Bakke long term? Or have you just forgot?
 Everything about the final days of Ellis smacked of the Lambert times.

The only thing that is incredible is the absence of any objectivity. Lerner was a moron who put his hand in his pocket. Ellis was a moron who put his hand in ours.

Neither were good for the club. One will likely go to his grave regretting that. The other will live forever.

Explain how you think paragraph two is true? And 1 and 3 for that matter.

I was talking to SH specifically but you've dumbfounded me there, unless you're asking as if alien to all that has occurred.

Res ipsa loquitur is my pleadings. I'd get summary judgment too. What say ye Richard?
