Welcome Eni!
I’m really pleased, I like her. What a coup to get her at the Villa!

With promotion all but confirmed, this is a great long term appointment. Gemma Davies is doing a great job as coach and she’s only mid 20s I think so she could learn so much off her.

Really good news for the club, always liked her when she has been on the telly and how she handled the trouble with her douche bag ex manager. Isn't she a local too ?


She and her brother are London born but her brother started his career at Small Heath.

She was born in Lagos, so not quite "London born". She moved to Birminghan when she was one. Both siblings played for Small Heath.

Now she should disown those siblings.

An apology of sorts this morning and all traces of any connection with Aston Villa appear to have disappeared from her biog and profile pics.

Her remarks came as Chancellor Rishi Sunak today confirmed that people living off the furlough scheme will be able to do so until October.

Here's the language starting to creep in already.

She apologised for having offended some people but essentially stands by her remarks: "No generalisations or widespread offence was intended. Just a personal opinion on the future economy in this crisis."

Urgh there’s nothing worse than “I’m sorry if you were offended.”

Honestly, it might be your opinion but how about keep it to yourself.
