Theres an interview with Guilem  Balague on the Claret and Blue podcast.

He knows Emery very well and is incredibly complimentary about him - it's well worth a listen.

One nugget is the assistant manager is an exciting name, a CL winner who knows the PL.  Intreagued to know who this will be?

Dortmund, 1997.

Oh, no.

Paul Lambert?

Bends the definition of an ‘exciting’ name! ( I haven’t listened )

I believe the mention of Dortmund, 1997 was just Dave W being mischievous.

Ha! Hook, line and sinker!
Very good!

I broke your rule, sorry.

I will only say that I'm still looking forward to our four-week holiday together in LeeB's caravan, with no TV, radio or books.

Just you, me, my stereo and my compilation of the complete works of RHCP & U2.

Disgusted however at  his interviewer,Sid Lowe's tweet tonight,.'.his going to Villa is really disappointing,on many levels' What a complete arsehole.

I kind of like Sid Lowe so for now I'm going to interpret that the most generous way I can and that is that he feels it is disappointing for Villareal to lose their manager mid-season and further proof how far La Liga is falling behind the PL.

I like Sid Lowe too and, knowing his passion for Spanish football, that's my take on it.. Not worth getting too worked up about.

Yeah that's absolutely how I took it as well.

Never understood why you can't see the spoiler on a mobile phone, not on the chrome app anyway. I'll assume he's called you a twat which frankly isn't very nice.

He definitely did still call me a twat though. I reckon that deserves a ban.

I have never received a ban or warning, and I've had a handful of DMs from Dave W, so I am therefore very influential.

Mods, away with him!

How well do you know the mods because do you reckon I could sway any and create some 'cash for bans' type scandal? One of them has to be a cheapskate. You reckon I could get you banned for under £200? Let's Squid Game this shit.

Legion is a prolific philanthropist, so offer him a £100 donation and I reckon he'd feed me into a meat grinder if you so wished. All about the greater good - and rightly so.

I don't think Dave likes me because I go too easy on the Tories, and I reckon Jon Crofts would offer you a fiver to scrap me.

As I said, my Get Out Of Jail Free card is Dave W. He once said I was like a son to him - true story.

(In actual fact, I don't know any of them and they'd all ban me at the drop of a hat if I broke the rules 😁.)

Me and Dave go back 40 years.

I’ve never been banned.

 It’s like being a Tory MP.

Edit: actually, I might have been in the days of drunken 4am Sunday morning posts. It’s a bit of a blur.

I think we need to give them a challenge, Percy.

Erm...god save the Tories; the Sun; Hillsborough was the work of the scousers; Sir Graham farted on the old Trinity; He Who Walks On Water has shit hair; Big John Carew is two men in a big coat; we didn't dominate & didn't deserve to win the 2019/20 League Cup final.

(And Dave W isn't a handsome devil - which we all know to be false...)
