Always an excuse given for Hogan isn't there, I don't get it he's given us nothing to warrant why some fans will always find an excuse for him. But with other players 1 mistake and they are the worst player ever

No I'm not passing the blame read what I said, it was Elmos error but there is a reason for that error. Last season that goal doesn't happen it'd have been headed out for a corner. Couldn't do anything about the second goal how about moving off his line, or for that matter move in general I moved more than him for that corner.

The 3rd was Elmos error but there are reasons why it happened it's simple last season he'd have headed it out for a corner because Johnstone was capable to deal with corners unlike this clown.

That was right infront of me, he did go for it but Elmo kicked it out of his hands which 100% proves to me the defence have probably even less confidence in him than we do.

If we had a good keeper that 3rd goal doesn't happen. Elmos mistake yes, but he clearly didn't want to head it out for a corner because that is Nylands weakness, he didn't want to head it back to the keeper because he's awful so he tried to head it up field. Last season Elmo would have headed it out for a corner because he'd have confidence Johnstone would deal with the corner.

And yet if Hogan had done it you'd make excuses for him, like Steve Bruce's system was to blame for him missing the header.

A poacher so what happened in the playoff final with that header? And what about the header where he gave up mid jump vs Norwich. He couldn't even poach an egg. As has been mentioned in this thread people will have a pop at Kodjia for being lazy etc.... But will make excuses for Hogan when he's doing the same

Had a free header in the play off final, didn't get it anywhere near on target, had a free header vs Norwich same thing happened, yeah i'm sure it's the system that's the problem

That is the Correct answer, for some reason that i do not understand people will always find an excuse for Hogan but won't with other players.

If Spurs wanted him they would have met our demands as in this day and age for a team in the Champions League £35m isn't that much, Levy was just doing what Doug would do back in the day when under pressure placing bids he knew would be rejected as Spurs probably are a bit low on funds because of their new stadium. Because if a champions league team really wanted him they would have got him in the end by stumping up the cash we wanted on deadline day. I really hope Grealish comes good and repays all his fans faith in him.

Collymore not wanting Terry as manager actually makes me want Terry as manager, and i say that as someone who doesn't like Terry but this isn't a popularity contest. If he benefits Villa then i'll park my personal feelings towards him just like I did last season.

Maybe he's not going to tell you he's going to show you.

Birmingham City are going to be hit hard because they ignored the embargo, had they not done that they might have gotten away with a lighter punishment.

What tier is he currently playing in?

My mate pointed something similar, just before the 3rd goal he pointed out that he was giving out instructions to the defence but not one of them was listening.

This. I'd love him to stay but put yourself in his shoes. He has great talent and has a chance to play at the top level yeah he would like to play at that level with us but we aren't at that level and how long does he wait. A footballers career is a short one and if he waits too long he could end up wasting his talent in the championship with us and have his whole retirement thinking what could have been. I really hope he does stay but I won't hold anything against him if he does. Just look at it this way put yourself in his shoes, You are very talented and have the chance to guarantee playing at the top level right now, or Do you wait in the hope that the club you're with manage to get there

It's just the press stirring i think. When we had no money the line they used was he wants to stay but we have to sell him, Now we have money it's we want to keep him but he wants to go. For me that just says the press have no idea and are doing what they always do when they don't know a thing which is make it up.

From the sounds of it I'm several factors richer than Dr Tony. I'm cautiously optimistic about this (once bitten and all that) but being cautiously optimistic is a million times improvement than this time yesterday.

so Dietrich will be joining Doug, Randy and Tony soon then ?

No Pompeys was a Russian.

I'm not in anyway saying this is true or that i'm believing it as i'm adopting a believe it when i see it approach, But you'd have said that about Fosun before they brought Wolves.

SInce Brexit that is pretty much the same as 12 million pounds

Luke Organ being with us isn't a bad thing. As he was a key member of the board at Wasps who took them from nearly going out of business where they had to register the retired legends as players just so they could have a full compliment of substitutes to where they are now challenging for the league title every season. So hopefully he can help steady the ship here and we'll come out the other end it a reasonably good state.

I think people need to stop with the demanding of statements from the club as right at this moment with all the financial issues (not saying its apocalyptic as there is no 100% proof) because let's face it we are in a financial mess we just don't know how big. But I very much doubt there will be any statements as speaking to the fans will be right at the bottom of their priorities.
