villan_007 Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 Lol Bruce and the club still to blame in this thread I see. Wonder how many special brews he had this morning before missing training? I see Smith put him straight back in the squad and he's training really hard and will make his comeback this week!? You know because Smith isn't Bruce and the new owners and regime have bigger better Olive branches. Haha poor old Ross. Absolute joke he gets support still. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know he's not the first to have a drink or few before a game, Paul McGrath well known for it lol. Don't see why a player should be sent to hell for eternity for past mistakes, if they're willing to change and prove they can comeback, then why should it be held against them if they're going to try. I didn't just blame bruce and no doubt Ross has his fair share of blame, but you can't deny that we've been that poorly managed that we've looked at players as waste of spaces. We brought them here and they were doing good where we got them from yet failed at our club, I don't think it's just the players who have done it to themselves. Managers weve had have had there favourites, gone and spent crazy amounts on new players and existing talent has suffered, not trained them one bit and done what needs to be done with. I'd say the blame lies with previous managers more than it be the players fault. It's a managers job to keep and make sure your work force is in tip top shape, that they arnt going off the rales, doing silly crap, a manager is sposed to do more than just pick a team and tell them to go out there and win and for a good while none of the above and more was happening which is why were where we are today because of it. Poor ownership/Poor management is the result of our demise until Nas and Wes came in. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"free" is a very loose term in this situation. Not entirely free as he has sat here for years collecting millions ££ for doing **** all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am I the only one who is totally depressed to log on to Villatalk on a Saturday morning to find Ross McCormack is trending again? We’ve scored 19 goals in our last 6 games so I hardly think we are scraping the barrel that much in our search for a goal scorer. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see Bruce getting any blame, just comments of events that happened while he was still in charge and it will always be that way. Ross equally has not helped himself. We have been round and round over McCormack and I agree, I still don't understand why folk are keen on him. I said it once and il say it again, il be amazed if McCormacks kicks another ball in a Villa shirt. He's finished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, and apparently he came back injured, and for smith not to have put him straight into the squad must me that he doesn't rate him at all. I mean injured players should be able to play, right? bloody pansies. They should have the "attitude of 'tis merely a flesh wound" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two sides to every story TRO - as I've asked before - did Ross ever make himself unavailable for selection? You and I know someone who did just this. Look it's history and I don't see Ross in a Villa shirt again - but let's have it right - not aimed at you by the way TRO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a thing called sub contracting or reciprocal trading?...that's my point. Edited December 16, 2018 by TRO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess ultimately it boils down to legalities - for example if this were to be a career ending injury to Ross - would the clubs insurers default on pay out - if his injury had not been diagnosed/ treatment in the first instance by the club ?
