SSN shit transfer show

[Villan For Life]

I was disappointed in Merson who I thought really “got” us when he played here.

However he’s taken the Sky shilling and has forgotten his time at Villa Park. I watched the show for about 30 minutes and i thought Merson was a tarquin c*nt.

I stopped watching ssn after they sacked le tissier nicholas and Thompson.  Its just lame now

Haha. This has to be satire.

What did he say that’s so awful? genuine question as I didn’t watch it.

Hahaha. They were just irreplaceable, weren't they? I'm still yearning.

I loved watching them. They were absolutely  hilarious together with stelling. Now its just a bunch of individuals with zero chemistry

[PeterWithesShin]

Life is much better when you don't give Sky your money.

[Grande Pablo]

Avoid the yellow ticker bollocks now, as all they've done this year especially is try & engineer links with very little if any truth behind them.  Sky know if the big 6 get bigger, they sell more subscriptions.  The act of almost driving Watkins themselves to Arsenal is very poor indeed, & having just read Merson's comments is really, really getting my goat.

Would any sensible person really think any club would sell their 2 main goalscorers?  It's like selling both your kidneys.

Basically implying Unai was lying and Ollie would be gone by Monday. That he had to step up because Arsenal are a bigger Club. That the bid would never have been made unless Ollie indicated he wanted to go there.

[PaulWinch again]

Thing is Ollie might be interested in going there, but there’s a difference between that and actively pushing for a move.

They didn't sack anyone, just didn't renew their contracts. Although Le Tissier probably would have been shoved out about 4 years ago anyway the conspiracy loon.

[Matt C]

After spending a month telling anyone who will listen that we can’t possibly have two strikers and have to sell one, I guarantee the narrative will now be we don’t have the squad depth in the striker positions.

[aj2k77]

Merson can fuck off the crack head.

Makes you think.

Merson is only saying what a lot of people think - "mad not to go to title challengers" etc. It's not a surprising view just because he has played for us and likes us. They talk as if Villa haven't got a say in the matter sometimes, that baffles me a bit. It doesn't really matter, we're not selling both our main strikers in any window, let alone January.

Yeah, I don't think there's any conspiracy involved, but the fact is that since football - and English football, specifically - became a global phenomenon, the media has been incentivised to perpetuate a narrative that certain clubs belong in certain places within an historically established pecking order.

The clubs that found themselves in powerful positions when football was established in 1992, and for the following few years, are beneficiaries of that.

The way it was in 1992-2000 is the way it always must've been. We have benefited from that as well. Which is why a player choosing to sign for Leeds or Sheffield Wednesday over us would be laughed at.

It's not some weird way of keeping clubs down, it's just that certain things reinforce the narrative (Villa being a second tier club who sell their best players when top tier clubs ask) that has worked in making the PL the most successful domestic league in the world, and some things don't (Villa telling top tier clubs trying to steal our players to fuck off).

It isn't a conspiracy to fuck us over. It is merely that the narrative that has grown from the PL is based on a pecking order where Arsenal fuck Villa.

These pundits and commentators don't really care either way. It's just that Villa refusing to be fucked bucks the trend.

That’s to their credit. All 3 belonged to the Mesozoic era.
