Seems to have landed on her feet again. https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/60593513

As long as her feet are 6,000 miles away from Villa Park she can fall wherever she likes.

Pity she had not smarmed her way into running the St Petersburg Ice Queens.

Start the clock.  She'll be back in the UK after some kind of bust up in no time.

And you can guarantee it won't be her fault.

I suppose it depends on "hatred", but as she was the same person who was tweeting out and rubbishing people on benefits during the pandemic, was that some of the hatred she meant?

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-68380445

Although the twats like the person interviewed further down who sent her abuse on the back of Barton's comments should be named and shamed, not protected. She might be a crap pundit, but being a woman or being black is no reason to abuse her. Especially when we have plenty of other crap white male pundits in the business.

She's right, Twitter is an absolute cesspit.

Personally, I think she's a pretty poor pundit and I'm not sure why the TV companies continue to hire her, but that doesn't justify the abuse towards her which has got to ridiculous levels.

Agree completely.

Oh, and didn't something like that happen? Although framed slightly differently.

Yes.

She & the manager had disagreements about the way the team was forming, basically because they were losing more than they were winning. Eventually, she quit her role because she didn't want the friction between the two to be an issue for the team. It's all in a documentary about the forming of the club on Sky docs (I think) & tbh, in that documentary, she came across as pretty knowledgable, but very ambitious. She was frustrated that a startup team wasn't winning more.

I had missed all of this thread & was completely oblivious to the issues she created while at Villa & wondered why there was so much animosity towards her when I mentioned her in a positive light in the 'Barton being a twat' thread. But after reading the whole thread, I can certainly understand some of the negative opinions of her now.

It is probably another thread to be chucked into other football now.

On ITV4's coverage of Chelsea v Leeds should any of her fans want to catch her.
