I’ve just read that a six part Netflix series on Villa is being released on 25th June.

I’ve just read that a six part Netflix series on Villa is being released on 25th June.

Where did you read it?

[Somniloquism]

Lots of historical messages about it but the one "news" site mentioning it just looks badly AI generated.

If that is true, it is not just the recent parts but going back to 2016.

Seems genuine to me, and I look forward to seeing Scarlett Johansson in it.

I hope Bailey’s missus isn’t in it. We might as well write off next year entirely if so.

US singer Chris Brown has been arrested in the UK in connection with a bottle attack at a London nightclub in 2023.

Brown was arrested at a hotel in Manchester in the early hours of Thursday, and held on suspicion of causing grievous bodily harm to music producer Abe Diaw at the Tape nightclub in Mayfair.

Refunds all round?

A lot of us questioned whether agreeing to host this bloke was something we should be doing.

Heck appears to have been blinded by the cheque.

Wonder if we negotiated a non- appearance penalty clause?
Given Brown's reputation  - then if not, why not?

We're not the promoters. Nothing to do with us if it doesn't happen.

[Hookeysmith]

Isn't this the type of "created"  hype that helps sell tickets. If his management team was not aware of the pending charges then they are all morons.

[VillaTim]

LIV is probably the perfect match for Heck . Good riddance .

We'll have expected a hiring fee?
And if we run things like Spuds do, we'd be taking the profits on catering.

If the gig doesn't proceed then that's lost income.

[Somniloquism]

We probably already have a fair chunk of fees paid in advance. The promoters take out the insurance to cover their costs for no shows.

I think I might take a wild guess here that the Villa hierarchy, in conjunction with the promoters, will have taken all eventualities into consideration.

I actually quite like LIV, hopefully he doesn't spoil it

Chris Brown has been remanded in custody until June.
That might now seriously put the concert in doubt

[Dogtanian]

Can't they bung him in The Cells and just wheel him out for the concert?
