If there are upcoming consultations the pathetic behaviour of villa's social media in recent days, and the invite to Grealish for the West Ham game, need to be raised. Some wonderful, loyal servants of our club have not had this treatment why has a disloyal ex player who tried three times to leave us had this treatment? If anybody should be invited to Villa gams it is a real legend like Paul McGrath.

But Purslow loves a celeb. It might be a bit tin-foil hat, but I wouldnt be surprised if there is an informal plan to bring Joe back in the future thinking it is good PR for both partiesUndoubtably thats why they are still courting him, because they know on Social Media Joe drives more clicks then aything else villa does.

Who was it that wondered if part of the reason for appointing Steven Gerrard was to replace Ratboy as our galactico? Purslow certainly does seem to love a celeb.

Though, TBF, Im starting to wonder if he got this one right. If so - I would say more by luck than judgement. But Im cynical and he reminds me too much of a "management consultant"

He is one slick communicator.Very articulate and thought out briefings. Glad we have him
Is Gerrard really that much of a "Galactico"? He was a great player but I wouldn't say he had the global attraction of the likes of Beckham or Henry etc. He's never advertised anything to my knowledge, and I don't really recall seeing much of him whan he was up in Scotland, other than the odd mention of results on TV. Most Liverpool fans I know want him to well at Villa, but that's about it.
He deserves a lot of credit for our upturn in fortunes. It's not all about having money to spend, although that helps. When I look at the shambles of the likes of Everton and Newcastle atm, I'm really glad we have this guy directing us the right way, compared to his predessors. I think he was key in investing in the youth, which seems to be starting to pay off.
Was reflecting last night that I don't think I have been this positive about the club, the way its run, the manager, the squad, ownership, our CEO, and our future for many years (probably most my adult life). There are always things to improve and frustrations, but one can't help feel we are absolutely headed back to the top echelons of the game.Wes, Nassif, and Christian really do deserve our respect.
