The RJW63 Official Jack Grealish Appreciation Thread
Awol replied to kevangrealish's topic in Other Football
Job done in that case. If we’d gone down I’d happIly wish him well elsewhere, but right now he’s crucial to building on survival. 4-5 new quality 1st teamers in over the next month & he could enjoy the next season with a v good chance of making the Euros. Selfish but meh. I want him here for as long as possible. -

Polite. -
In the Telegraph article he makes the point he was talking to Jack on the morning of the last game, & I think he’s straightforwardly setting out what all the senior players now expect from the club. One worry is that if Jack goes it sparks others to do the same. Showing enough ambition early is vital in retaining that core group, imo.

United fans flouncing that “they’ll walk away” if Villa ask for more than £45M is hilarious. Most genuinely seem to think buying him is doing us a favour. Cretins. -
Bound for Citeh, supposedly.

That’s true, but the players Smith wanted last summer that were too rich for Purslow’s blood at approx £20M a pop (Benrahma and Philips) would probably cost double that today. I don’t think anyone we bought last summer - except Luiz who was a steal and special case - has increased in value at all. If Suso is staying (for me he shouldn’t) then hopefully Purslow will put more weight in Smith’s ability to pick a player.

Would rather keep Trez as a squad filler than Ghazi, but ideally neither will be starters in September.

That was grim To watch, but a defining moment. To the transfer thread...
-
Jesus Mary and Joseph. Get Samatta off!!
-
The fear..
-
Might get better if Guilbert comes on now
-
Exactly
-
He’s a w*nker. Can’t stand him.
-
Harder not to score
-
Bricking it now.
-
He is, but he tries. Ghazi is dog shit and lazy.
-
That’s not fair
-
Where’s this intensity been for the last 90 minutes?
-
With a header...

Oh my days.

Really? Your life chances in this country are based on money, not ethnicity. I don’t know how to saying any clearer than that.

Not naive, I know we’re not on the same page most of the time but I don’t start from a position of bad faith - not with you at any rate. I see this as part of something much bigger than 15 seconds of whatever, but as part of an attempt to delegitimatise anything and everything of which the present moment disapproves. Philosophically I see that as profoundly misguided and dangerous. And, truth be told, l’m still boiling inside at seeing that cretin trying to set fire to the union flag on the Cenotaph last weekend. Not enough to still resist getting involved, but angry beyond words.

Fair to say we disagree about this on such a basic level there’s nothing to be gained by going back and forth. I think everyone, whatever their background, deserves a fair shot. The real determinant of that isn’t the colour of their skin, it’s the content of their parents’ wallet. You’re buying what BLM Is selling, I’m not. Ciao for now.

Indirectly they have. A small number of far-left activists and outright race grifters have been given licence to act like animals because of it. The BBC and the rest of the wokerati have gleefully jumped on board in a frenzy of censorship. Anyone offended by John Cleese parody of British neurosis about WW2 can just do one. It’s pathetic.

I’m glad to hear it. Do you think pulling shows from Little Britain to Fawlty Towers is a calm, measured response to a guy being murdered by police 4000 miles away? How far does it need to go before people pause and say, “well, I’m against slavery and murder but I can’t support cancelling Poirot”?
