It’s ironic some of these senior PL football execs refer to the Newcastle example. Where were they with this take with Bury, Bolton or a myriad of other clubs cast to the winds by shysters taking the piss. There is a need for regulation, I’d concur it shouldn’t be sledgehammer and nut, but those less able to protect  themselves from charlatans need a safety net, and largely relying on PL largesse isn’t adequate or is in fact no protection at all.

Couldn't concentrate on what he was saying due to that vase in the background

He is one slick communicator.
Very articulate and thought out briefings. Glad we have him

All positive news, planning permission going in around a months time for expanding the stadium and also expanding commercial and hospitality areas of the club.

Spends 10 mins talking without really saying anything we either didn't already know or isn't obvious.

He's got a career in politics if he wants a pay cut!

I think it is reassuring that he is aware of the transport issues and is trying to do something about it.
The club is owned and being run by professionals.

I dont agree with that. I mean when did we know about what this new company was setup was going to be for?

When did we know the details about expansion of the stadium?

Also where was it mentioned that purslow is talking to the local authorities about improving about transport links to villa park?

I personally am delighted about the last point.  The public service transport to villa park is a absolute shambles.

I presume the company has changed names so we can get around FFP if Steven Gerrard wants a couple of world beaters in the squad?

All good news from CP to be fair.  I look forward to seeing the plans.

How does changing the name get around FFP?

So what's the company name change for? Specifically?

And you're surprised that they're making plans to expand the ground? Even Purslow said this was in line with previous comments.

Likewise, when fans spent hours trying to get away from Villa Park at the last game and they're planning to expand the ground it's common sense that the club would speak to the council about improving public transport in light of their plans.

I'm not having a go - we've seen on here that fans moan if he doesn't do statements - but it's not exactly groundbreaking stuff is it.

It's a question, see the question mark at the end of the sentence.  Not all of us understand the FFP rules.

Jesus too.
