Quote from: dave.woodhall on December 01, 2021, 11:32:42 PMWhat has really fucking pissed me off all through today is this idea that we're some sort of feeder team and should be grateful that we had the opportunity to train up a player until one of the proper clubs wanted him. And what has really, REALLY fucking pissed me off is that the worst culprits have been some of our own supporters. Some truly sickening behaviour in the ground today.

It'll linger for me. The club made a big mistake on social media.

And no way is there some junior media-manager to blame for it, this whole thing would have been sanctioned by Purslow. Now, he is not stupid so there must be a reason for doing it. Either playing up to a new type of supporter or some sort of existing hand-shake agreement to pave the way for a future return to Villa for G.

I assume it's because kids have grown up playing FIFA and have started to follow players as much as clubs, so they probably don't want to piss them off by ignoring his return in the hope that they keep turning up and buying tat from the Villa.I think it stinks, but it seems the logical conclusion to me.
Hmm. I'm beginning to think you're a soft touch, Paddy.

Purely out of social awkwardness.
