Christian Purslow on 5Live Sportsweek

Purslow has said that we’re Aston Villa and we’re not going to have a parade for, effectively, finishing third. That’s exactly the mindset I want us to have. Good man.

Couldn't agree more , parade's are for when you win something outright.  Not this time.

I reckon that Brum-based purveyors of open top buses won't mind on this occasion.  They're canny enough to recognize that they'll have plenty of opportunities in the coming years to earn a crust with Deano at the helm.

Never even crossed my mind that there might be a parade.

Do teams normally have one when they win the play-off?

I see that Arsenal have announced the time and route of their UEFA Cup winning celebrations before they've played the game

Wont Chelsea have had to do the same?

Youtube - In depth interview: Christian Purslow and Dean Smith. Twenty minutes long.

I know talk is cheap but we are clearly setting our sights a lot higher than survival. And don't expect any loan signings or signings who are knocking on a bit. The best thing about Purslow is that along with his statements of intent he also clearly states how he plans to achieve it.

Been really impressed with Christian Purdlow from the moment he arrived.  Whar a contrast to Tom Fox and his false narrative bollocks

[ASHTONVILLA]

Really impressive. I have far more confidence in this owner/management team than I ever had in Lerner (playing at it) and Xia (fool).

I'm going against the grain here but there's still a nagging doubt with me about Purslow. Speaks a good game and clearly competent given his employment record. Still haven't put my finger on it but even little things like him interjecting "100%" when Dean said his favorite goal was Jack's away at Rotherham. Just let the manager talk about football matters.

I do like the fact that Wes always looks like he's always been on a big one the night before. Of course I wouldn't do that if I was a billionaire.

Don't get your thinking in the slightest. Who's been on the big one the night before? It's certainly not Purslow!!

Chelsea won't be having one  even if they win according to the Evening Standard,  I read on the tube home just now.

Think he got stick at Liverpool as people thought he interfered too much when Benitez was there - conveniently forget that he helped get the Hicks and Gillett regime out mind
