Purslow interview on (the absolutely pointless) VillaTV:

No cast option. Very poor show.

Hmmm. Spot the difference from his interview in the summer when he wanted the team to make a splash in the Premier League and not struggle at the wrong end of the table.  Now he's "very pleased with how things are going."

Many people got carried away in the euphoria of the play off win. In same interview DS said we'd attack every team home and away. Easy to say then but much harder to put into practice. Money was put on top 4 finishes etc....

All these last six months have shown is it's a long road to get the club back to being a competitive top 8 team in the top division.

I backed us to win it. I was giddy.

If somebody can introduce me to these people, I have a landmark bridge for sale in which they may be interested.

It's not an extra account you need. Go to avfc.co.uk and log in as you usually would, then click VillaTV on the top claret banner.

Just imagine how easy the Club could make watching Aston Villa content - if only there was a globally used video watching platform used by billions of people they could lean on?

Or make the on-pitch stuff less ghastly viewing.

Jack gets me excited but I wouldn't go as far as putting our games on PornHub.

I think they wanted to stop uploading everything to Youtube so that they could redirect more traffic to our in-house service.

Why? To what end? I only use it on mobile, and it's a mess. It's just a huge unstructured pile of videos that are a pain to scroll through. It's shit.

It really is a useless heap of shit. A bit like our bench.

Get the team on the pitch right first, everything else comes second.  I want him to show me, don't tell me.  That said, at least he's not claiming world domination in five years.

And you can stream you tube through a lot of TVs. Bet you can't with avtv
