Except today when the player on the receiving end is…..fine?

Why would he not be criticised when he’s clearly inept?

If you don’t care about simple typography

Yeah Emery is the naive one. Read between the lines and I’m pretty sure it’s just lip service. They’ll spend the dough on the right players and back their man. He knows what he’s doing

I would hardly call their tenure a consistent failure.

Calling the owners who saved us from extinction and pumped hundreds of millions into the club in the process, investing in the academy and an improved stadium ‘**** clowns’ is self-entitled BS. ‘They don’t get away with it’ - what exactly?

Yeah that’s true. It’s kind of a given at that level I think

Because he’s full of shit? He has an ego the size of a house and can’t take criticism whatsoever. Plays the nice guy card but is a painfully sore loser and quite transparent. Good manager though

Race baiting? What a strange choice of phrase

I get that. I’m sure Nas and Wes don’t suffer fools, so if Purslow isn’t delivering then he’ll get the boot. Look at how far we’ve come though? The owners are strategic and will know there will be bumps in the road as we progress. As far as CEOs go, I believe we’re in capable hands with Purslow.

A joy to watch? So much so you created an entirely new thread for them. Wow.

Sorry mate but this is complete BS. I sit in Doug Elllis, M4 row F and watched this pattern of play unfold clear as day. Coutinho under hit a simple pass by about 2/3 yards meaning Mings had to be quick on his toes to cut it out with a fully stretched toe. No way he’d reach it without stretching. He did so with good timing and passed it out cleanly to the wing to keep the move going. Saka and Mings collide a second later and the ref blows. No one around me could believe he blew for the foul yet alone gave a yellow for it. Blame Phil for the pass if you like and the ref for not having a clue. As Lichfield Dean rightly points out!

Hi fellow Villa fans. Been reading this site for a good few years now with interest (particularly during the meltdown moments and manager/player speculation) but have never posted before. Lived in Birmingham for my whole life apart from a 5 year stint in London when we used to catch the 3 o'clock games at the Yucatan in N16. Would recommend it for the football and the Guiness. Good times! Get to VP about 10 times a season usually and tend to sit in the Doug Ellis with my dad as he likes to get away quickly at the final whistle. We always stay for the full 90!!! Going to West Ham this weekend which is one of only a handful of away games I've been to so looking forward to that. Love what Lambo is trying to do with the team but annoyed we didn't get the AM. Regardless, he's the man for the job and will get us firing again once we start the next cycle of change. Anyway. Hello!
