Can't blame the club for that. As ever, they know what they're doing but unfortunately sometimes your hands are tied.

Apparently the club shop ran out of e's and people we're somehow linking it to Grealish leaving.

Trust NSWE. Wlcom Lon Baily

It may be out of the club's hands if there is a clause though.

Liverpool in for a Southampton player? Rubbish.

I'm convinced he did want to go. Basically, every time there has been interest in him in one way or another, he has wanted to go. Only difference now is that the interest appears that it may be followed up, whereas it never really got off the ground before. I actually used to sit near him at games back when he was in the youth team. He was there with the rest of the youth team squad when we had the likes of Harry Forrester. Obviously they'd all been given tickets to the games. He used to mess around the entire game. Never showed any interest in it. Maybe he was being Jack the lad in front of his mates as he was only young then but he never really came across as a die hard fan watching his team to me, which I've always found a bit odd.

How dare you! (Agree with the F1 bit though).

Football is a chavs sport whereas golf is a gentleman's sport. (In general). It absolutely does bring out the worst in people and the worst of people.

Agree with the first bit Flaps. He's shafted us big time IF he does go, which is looking more and more likely. 2 weeks before the start of the season after saying those words 10 months ago. Really, really poor. But I don't agree with the last paragraph. I trust NSWE to continue their good work. Keep the faith in them. We'll be fine

I think he's a horrible man personally. Definitely overrated though.

Sickening. Yet he's lauded as a genius who develops players haha! Give me a break. He's had probably the 3 easiest jobs in world football on his CV. The man's a cretin.

Definitely. We have a club to support because of NSWE. They are the true heroes here. I trust them 100%. We had plenty of players before Grealish and there will be plenty after.

Who did they spend the money on?

Ian is such a good man. How can anyone not love him.

It annoys me when you run out of likes on this site. This is spot on.

Guarantee you're back before midday tomorrow

So no clause then?

Are you saying this is what will happen? We won't sell?

Flattering I'd call it. But yes, also weird.

He hasn't been back home yet so can't have met with Nassef, Wes, Christian, Johan and Dean yet. Maybe he's meeting them Monday morning and maybe they'll blow him away with an offer.

That bit is odd. If a clause had been activated, it would not only be in the article, it would be the headline.

However bad things get, we'll always be big enough for weird fans of other clubs to be stalking our messages boards on a Friday evening

Can't understand the "wish him luck" stuff. Why would we want him to do well at another club? There's only one set of players I want to do well and they wear claret and blue at Villa Park. Every other player, I couldn't give a flying fudge about.
