Actually it's not fact, it's your opinion. I'd imagine many would be delighted, i'd imagine many wouldn't be. I'd imagine most would wonder how the smeg we'd get round FFP paying that kind of money. And if it helps, Atkinson was an absolute twat for what he said and I wouldn't want him near VP again either.
Wonder what the response on here would be if we bid £150,000,000 for Louis suarez and offered him 250k a week.
The only difference between my opinion on us signing Suarez and Terry is questioning the "he'd massively improve us" stuff as he obviously would. I still wouldn't want to sign him though. It's pretty irrelevant though as there's zero chance of us ever finding out.

It's pretty irrelevant though as there's zero chance of us ever finding out.But surely if we are dealing with principles of what people have said or represent, ability past, present or future surely becomes irrelevant.You stand in the moralistic 1% of people who without lying would stand by "no". Fair play to you.
Well yes, which is why I wouldn't want Suarez despite how good a player he is. I can't speak for anyone else though.
As I mentioned earlier I wouldnt want Suarez at all. My ethical principles would be challenged by the fact that unlike all the others on my list Suarez is a good footballer. But I genuinely couldn't enjoy watching Villa play with him in the team so I wouldn't until he was gone. Aston Villa players dont have to be angels or even nice people for me to support them, but there is a limit. Some players are simply too much of a scumbag to stomach.
