If it wasn't a problem I wonder why he deleted all the worst stuff.

Fair does LeeB. Work is work. In fairness, it is just that. However in this instance it is an odd choice. Might be a better idea to employ a villa fan?

Not necessarily a Villa fan, but definitely not someone that has disparaged the club through the very medium he's employed to manage.

If he's the best person for the job why does which team he supports matter?

We don't apply the same logic to players, why should it apply to staff? It's just a job.

It matters not a jot what team he supports. But as recently as last summer, he has publicly stated he hates Villa and enjoys nothing more than seeing them lose. How long does anyone think they'd last in their job if they'd published derogatory comments about their employer on a worldwide platform? In fairness, if their employer had been anything like thorough and professional, they probably wouldn't have been offered the job in the first place.

To be honest, I'm more disappointed (though not surprised) in Villa than some congenitally bitter, hate-filled and obsessed knuckledragger. Half-arsed indeed.

I have to agree, if you, me or anyone else published derogatory comments about our employers on any sort of social media, or anything else for that matter, we would be taken down the disciplinary procedure and sacked in no short order!

I agree Lee. If I slag the company I work for, I would be on my way to the dole office

Surely his previous "work " should have been more thoroughly vetted in the first place. Sack his recruiter, too.

Maybe he can now talk all day tomorrow about Newcastle and Fishy people on our behalf as the Twitter " Hardman " that he obviously is.

How do we know that this fellow is only masquerading as a Nose to hide the fact that he is a Trumpist agent sent to undermine Doctor Tony X and Chinese investment in the UK?

But surely Mr Trump has already acknowledged a One-China policy going forward ? No undermining on the agenda therefore ?

Dr Tone needs to tweet that ' this is fake news and designed to undermine our club by inferring we are in chaos when the truth is we are running like a well oiled machine'. Well maybe not exactly those words but some form of pigeon english with sums.

This is FAKE NEWS from the failing Aston Villa (which I hear is overrated). Disgraceful. Apologize!
