Summer 26 Transfer Window - hopes, speculation, rumours etc.

[Chap]

Bardell is a quiff haired ankle trouser no sock wearing buffoon who has zero insider knowledge.  Vinnie on here has more.

Doesn’t have much going for him then.

Do these V(Villa)Loggers have legacy jobs from the time before Insta reels and fan-gorging/gouging ? They mention partners and kids so they must be non-Villa functioning humans too. Beyond affiliate link kickbacks and in-video promotional messages, they still need white or blue collar activity to go along with the claret ones, surely.

Justin sells spuds. I think Dan does football full-time, and Luke (UTV) who used to be a hairdresser. One brother from The (best) Villa Podcast works for the Irish Independent, the three on Claret & Blue are full-time. The guys on Love Paul McGrath have jobs.

I prefer the Claret and Blue trio. Two of them are journos for the Mail (or more specifically, its parent) and the other, Dan Rollinson, is a media guy.

Bardell is a journo of sorts.

They are all Villa fans like us though. Making a living talking about us. It’s living the dream.

Making money out of Villa fans is wrong.

Says Woodhall. From Monaco.

Last i heard, he was sitting in a pub in Ireland with a crown on his head.

Justin just says an exaggerated ‘hello’ and that’s the end of the substance there.  His drone vids are okay right enough.

Who’s the squealy bloke I see on insta that always asks us to drop or bang a like before he starts?  Right nauseous.

Luke? UTV pod?

[dave.woodhall]

Last I heard some young scamp was asking for a thick ear.

[Halfway to Moseley]

Bardell used to host an excellent podcast back in the championship/early promotion days,along with Chris Dolan and a guy who went to work for the Bundesliga.

I do like Luke Robinson, his enthusiasm and love for Villa shines through.

I generally like listening to/watching most Villa channels - until they start taking themselves too seriously and go all pseudo-Romano claiming to have insider info, then they can get straight in the bin.

I like Dan Bardell, but am not sure how he's got the inside track on what we can do this summer.

He hasn’t - he just has a bee in his bonnet with Spurs so he’s spouting over the internet and making himself look stupid trying to create a rivalry that doesn’t exist over an issue that equally doesn’t exist, Spurs are doing nothing wrong, trying to get their business done quickly, spending money they have, we can’t but that is the rules not another clubs fault.

[Demitri_C]

Dont mind Dan at all. I waych his stuff. The thing with spirs is more frustration  at the rules and how not beating them could bite us in the long term.

He has  a point
