I'm just not seeing it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilko154 Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 I remember being seriously worried over the summer that Chester was going to have to be sold due to FFP. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No need for that, he is great to have in the dressing room and we need 4 centre backs for a whole season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Hornso Posted May 16, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted May 16, 2019 I feel a bit sorry for Chester. Over our 3 seasons in the Championship to this point he's been the one constant in the team playing 90 minutes virtually week in, week out. He noticeably plays through an injury until we get some cover in for him in January and then he misses the glorious 10 game winning streak and another trip to Wembley. He's a bit of the forgotten man right now. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They certainly want a look at him.. If he wins promotion with us.. he pretty much flys out with Man Utd on their pre-season tour, fresh on his mind of kbowing he will be 1st choice at Villa, might want to remain at Villa.. and with only a year to go on his contract, hopefully joins Villa for around £10m. All in an ideal world at the moment though and we will have a better idea what could unfold after the 27th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still shocking go into season with 1 senior centre back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnnyp Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 Important not to let this guy go under the radar and what he has done at the club. Great piece of business and has been massive for us over the last 3 seasons. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post DevonIsAPlaceOnEarth Posted May 27, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted May 27, 2019 Brilliant touch that Chester raised the trophy with Jack. He represented everything good about our time in the championship. A true pro. Didn’t have a great season because of injury, but should be remembered by fans for the way he’s carried himself in the previous 2 years. 16 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fonz Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 I know it's the Bham Mail but worth reading if you can find the article among all the adverts. Chester put his long term health on the line for us this year and looks like it will affect him for the rest of his life. His contribution should not be forgotten and him lifting the trophy with Jack was right. https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/james-chester-makes-heartbreaking-revelation-16339525 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dodgyknees Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 And to think he was left as our only **** centre back. I still feel that was a deliberate act of vandalism. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fun Factory Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 I am angry for him, its almost bordering on criminal negligence that we forced him to play repeatedly when he was clearly injured as we had no other centre backs. Steve Bruce who had an excellent career in that position should have know better. And he the loaned Elphick out!! What was that all about?! Shocking for Chester. He if was not such a fine servant and professional his health might be better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chappy Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 An absolute pro and hope he gets the credit he deserves from all sides. If his recovery continues I’d keep him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
