  1. The NFL, as surprises many, is one one of fairest most egalitarian financial systems in world sport. I've long thought we could take a massive leaf out of the NFL book when it comes to our game. Not only with youth drafting but financial caps. Very difficult to do though. What we should do as a priority is get rid of agents. They're just a load of shyster parasites making money for nothing. Players should get FA appointed advisors or have an advisory body handing player's affairs.
  2. Pivot 1: John McGinn. Pivot 2: John McGinn's derriere.
  3. It looks like he can cover everything from left back to striker to chief scout to sports nutritionist to Chief Rabbi.
  4. Frimpong (he's deffo signing now he wore our shirt) and Kosta will lock down the right back spot for the next decade. Flog Cash. Ferdi whatshisface and whoever is left from Digne / Moreno can lock down left back. Ferdi can also cover every other position twice over. Then we need cover for Kamara. Absolutely no idea who but an absolute unit who is technically good. erm... yeah that will do.
  5. Ian Kilmister - £25m Eddie Clarke - £18m Phil Taylor - £20m
  6. Bollocks to the coefficient. Lets just smash everybody until the end of the season.
  7. Some players just seem to come alive or play at another level with better players around them. Its a real art identifying those players. Often they're the "wonderkids" who get snaffled up by big clubs, hit a rough patch and end up at a lower level, but the talent and potential is still there. I think Rogers is such a player. I think there's more like him around and finding them can save us a lot of money.
  8. Would you prefer Chiesa or Jack at Villa next season?
  9. Villa JG was world class. Man City have ruined him by making him play differently. It was all so predictable but he has a bunch of medals so...
  10. I haven't slept a wink for a week. I keep having nightmares about Tom Brady laughing manically as Taylor Swift plays to a sold out Keeprireonbowl in a Blose shirt.
  11. I thought you had some new info. Lets draw a line under it now.
  12. An official press release considered by the board and approved.
  13. I know, but they're not a club statement. That's a different category all together. Even then, things can change.
  14. To be honest, you're not really saying anything much. You're just quoting minutes from a meeting we've all read, and claiming its a club statement, which it isn't. And you seem to be upset by anybody considering even the slight possibility that we move stadium. You don't think we'll move and you think the club have stated this. We get it.
  15. Its tight but probably not worth the hassle, and you'd have to have additional offsite parking.
  16. Jesus Christ. I did know about them. I wasnt referring to them when I said second hand comments but rather the local media reporting.
  17. No offence but this back and forth is getting a bit boring, now, so I'll try and sum up where I am. I know about these FAB comments, as does everybody in the Villa world by now, I'm sure. You can take them as a cast iron guarantee we will not be moving. I don't. Not because I think the club have been misleading or deliberately lying, but because it may become apparent that expanding the stadium as initially planned is no longer viable for several reasons. I also get the feeling the situation is fluid and changeable. What was in reply to social media comments in December may be out of date now too. Nor what was that a club statement, but the minutes of a meeting. I say again, I don't expect that its more likely that we'll move. Quite the opposite. I just think we'll have to expand the land we own around VP to get where we want to be and possibly build a stadium next to VP to minimise disruption. Does that scenario mean we're moving or not? I'd say its a matter of opinion / perspective.
  18. I have too. And I didn't take them as cast iron guarantees, just that there were no plans to move. Like I say, the situation can change. They already have to some degree. I also agree a redevelopment of the area (dependent on expanding the land) is the most likely outcome. We're roleplaying a situation than may or not become a necessity. Edit: Sorry, this was a response to Outbyeaster than didnt include his post for some reason. Long day maybe.
