I don’t believe it for a moment, he’s the best CEO we’ve had for years.
I hope we keep him for a long time.

Wow - a tank would be even better than a bank, but again sadly not

He has had a pretty easy ride of things.  Even the Grealish episode he was given carte blanch to come out with some very orchestrated statement which washed with a lot of supporters.  Clearly though a very polished professional in his field.

First thing I thought about reading that was Arsenal signing Ben White for 50m.....

What’s the issue with the Grealish thing? He explained a release was there and what we’d done to address his loss.

What didn’t you like about the statement, I thought it was very clear and concise

When all said and done with 4 defeats in a row and conceding 3+ goals 3 games in a row the fact remains that Grealish was pulled out from Deans system with out much clear planning
That has been an almighty blow
Yet Purslow spins the ambition line and a yarn. The buy out clauses never did Smith any favours and he's the one having to suffer
Purslow planning has to take some responsibility for this

Its not fair for Dean to solely be accountable. Yet he will the one ultimately suffer

Purslow and Dean are not the 'closest' as was.

Yep and Dean Smith said we are stronger this season.

Well that 'extremely precise’ summer plan for Aston Villa I think is a load of nonsense

I don't think our CEO needs to put out press releases every time we have a difficult spell.  Even Daniel "It's All About Me" Levy doesn't do that!

What on earth do you want him to say?  Until they've made a decision on Smith there's nothing they can say really.
