Butterfingers Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 (edited) What were we paying him a week? It won't be much of a profit If it was £60K. Profit doesn't really enter the equation anyway, given we've just been taken over. The way I see it, its another £4milion towards the rebuild. We're currently getting rid of the sellable assets. £16 million for Clark Gana, and Sinclair is OK . We've also got N'Zogbia & Guzan off the books. The 4 that have come in look good. Another 4 this window would be good.. 2 of Lescott Richards and Gabby gone would be great. Edited August 5, 2016 by Butterfingers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sinclair has had one decent season at Swansea. I'd file him next to Carlton Cole and Josh Mceachran as over hyped Chelsea youth products. I'm not proud of being absolutely correct. Forget about that though, and good luck to him at Celtic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As millionaire footballer's women go I never really got the appeal of her, she is alright and I probably would myself but I've been with nicer. As for Sinclair well he underperformed massively, he will probably do ok in Scotland with the style of football Rodger's will have them playing. He wasn't suited to long balls up to Gestede or midfielders playing sidewards passes to Hutton/Cissokho type rubbish that was served up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zatman Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 of all the shit in recent years for me he is easily the worst player to ever wear a Villa jersey, absolute crap and wouldnt be surprised he struggles in Scotland never forgive Lambert for bringing this fraud to Villa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alreadyexists Posted August 6, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted August 6, 2016 (edited) Quite a few sites reporting that he's having a a medical at Celtic, including Sky Sports, so sounds like it's all going ahead. SkySports Twitter: BREAKING: Scott Sinclair having @celticfc medical this morning ahead of proposed move from @AVFCOfficial. Edit: deleted picture of Helen Flanagan in a state of undress as thought 'there's kids that read this'.

I felt the same way. I couldn't understand why we offered him a contract. His loan period showed me he wasn't good enough. Yet another awful decision which signalled our downfall like offering Gabby a new contract when everyone knew he should have been sent packing and extending Lamberts contract when we should have ditched him.

sexbelowsound Posted August 6, 2016 Share Posted August 6, 2016 One trick pony and when that trick actually works it confuses him into thinking he can take on a second player, inevitably getting tackled. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
