Handed so many opportunities after her playing career. I cannot believe anyone employs her. Same with most pundits though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pep and Arteta working together for the benefit of Arteta to push the Arsenal board to pay up for Rice and get closer to WHU valuation of Rice, otherwise without the City bid Arsenal would stop at a lower figure, and WHU wouldn’t sell. Either way can’t see that being the case here. If Aluko has done it previously she needs investigating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaJ100 Posted June 27, 2023 Share Posted June 27, 2023 She should have all her accounts and contacts examined forensically. Calling other clubs to bid to increase someone's transfer fee benefits nobody bar the people getting paid - the player, the selling club, agents. It's about the clearest way possible to show corruption. To be honest though I think she might be such an idiot she's not corrupt and she thought that she was being super smart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Albrighton Posted August 31, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted August 31, 2023 So the club decided not to pursue the hair brained schemes of Purslow regarding the new club badge and the original Villa Live building but they had no option but to continue with the terrace at the Holte end? And Sawiris, Edens and Heck are all watching on in complete dismay with no power to prevent it? To postpone it? To alter it? Maybe it’s too expensive to do stop it? More expensive than one week of Lucas Digne’s time (hahahaha)? And despite the club being keen to move Purslow on because they decided he was no good, no forethought took place to review the ideas he was coming up with to make sure they were in line with what the club wanted to do following his departure? Do I have this correct? Ideally it would be nice to have some answer that doesn’t involve me or anyone else questioning the logic of the dastardly Purslow narrative being labelled as a Purslow “fan boy”, because believe it or not, I’m not particularly. And even more optimistically it would be nice not to see people being labelled “deluded”. But whether that it is a bit of wishful thinking, I’m not sure.

CVByrne Posted September 6, 2023 Share Posted September 6, 2023 Assume Purslow was offered the role of COO in the reshuffle and decided to leave. So there was still a vacancy needed to be filled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So because you liked him, the rest of us should just forget one of the worst signings this club has made of any kind.... If we didn't have the owners we do, Purslow's terrible judgement could have caused a lot more damage than it did. It's one thing to make a mistake, it's another thing to refuse to admit it and stand by your mistake to the near destruction of anything good... 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The COO reshuffle will just be Heck choosing his own second in command - it's never been a vacancy, it's a straight replacement. I can't see that they'd have offered Purslow the position, it'd be like offering Gerrard the assistant managers job when we took on Emery. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok so i assume you have the same level of hate for wes and sawiris then? As they make final call on who comes in. Lets crucify a ceo for making a bad appointment. Have you ever made a mistake?

Purslow got his mate in, who's tactical prowess involved relying on moments of magic from individuals. It would be great if you extended some of our players the generous slack you allow Purslow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
