Damian Vidagany - Director of Football

"Change of expectation".  In other words,  brace yourself for the fire sale.

Nobody is this thick, it's deliberate. Log off and get a better hobby than trolling on the Internet. Try fishing maybe or just do some gardening. You won't be able to fertilise the flower beds with the shite you talk though, so pop to B&Q for that.

Today’s coffee spewing comment.🤣🤣

Absolute quality post!

Has anyone else apart from the terminally dimwitted read this and thought anything other he's saying how far we've come that the Europa League is now a disappointment?

Indeed - I’m surprised some people have the capacity to remember to breathe.

We are idiots, babe

[Meanwood Villa]

That's a Dylan reference rather than an insult BTW

[Toronto Villa]

Damian seems a proper good bloke

[eamonn]

Yeah but does he listen to Dylan?

He's also a big man so when Unai was losing his wig after the game yesterday, I'm glad D Viddy wasn't following suit. You gotta respect your blood pressure.

"One year later, every words comes stronger: we keep fighting this situation to deliver a good team and comply with PSR and UEFA rules. As difficult it is, we won’t give up..( Thanks and good luck JJ) 👇🏻"

🗣 Damian Vidagany via talkSPORT: "Absolutely [PSR makes it more difficult]. Clubs need some rules to stick to, but PSR is making it very complex. The system is forcing the clubs to sell their Academy players, this is the way to get more profit and be able to stick to the rules, and I think this is killing some spirit of football.

"It's something that is not natural in football, something that is breaking the cycle, affecting the inflation of the salary of the players, how the club want to build squads and also forcing clubs to do deals that are not natural in the market. To get the best deals you need time, and PSR is not helping the clubs.

"We, as a club, have the ambition to get there, amongst the best, I don't like the concept of top six, to get there is very difficult because the clubs who have more resources it's easier to stick to PSR, it's like an establishment that we're trying to break but the system is not allowing us to do it.

"We're lucky to have one of the best managers in the world that is helping to break this wall we have in front."

I do worry that these magnificent owners and management team we have in place, eventually throw the towel in and walk away.
I sense this is a defining season for us, whether we are able to keep Unai and the whole structure in place for next season.
God, I hope so.

I'm getting that vibe too.

Same.

I don't want to be a doom merchant but unless something changes, I can't see why the owners, the manager and even us for that matter, bother when progress is deliberately put beyond our reach.

I'm just waiting for us all to come to the conclusion that there is no point being in a competition where there is no competition.

I think it’s all just setting up the formation of a new Super league probably funded by Saudi money and involving some of their clubs
