We'll sign up to whichever kit supplier offers us the most money be that Castore or Adidas. We'll open up as many hospitality areas as we can cram into the stadium and we'll increase ticket prices to the absolute maximum we think the fans will pay. And we'll do all this if we we're being run by Heck or by Purslow. Heck, we'd probably do this if our job depended on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are rectifying all the areas that you highlight and it is being done by Heck. Edited September 28, 2023 by AvfcRigo82 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like we wouldn't sign anymore players over a certain age that hold no resell value. ...only to see Coutinho eventually signed permanently on a stupid contract! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe But then also maybe the highest non gambling sponsor offer we had was £2m per year less than what we have now The reality is we have to whore ourselves out The other reality is when people say "why can't we have cadburys or land rover as our main shirt sponsor?" these guys are more interested in being man utds official chocolate partner than they are our sponsor £2m a year more is utds official Nigerian fruit juice partner, we can't turn it down Its bollocks, we all know it's bollocks but that's where football is now, the **** gutter Its not worth blaming purslow or heck for putting us there, the sport put us there 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted September 29, 2023 Share Posted September 29, 2023 That's another thing about modern football, we want unlimited access, we want to know everything, we want to hear from the club... But then we're going to tell the club it's a load of bollocks afterwards I think I listened to 2 interviews from purslow in his entire time with us, 1 on talksport with Simon Jordan and 1 with Sky News (? I seem to remember it wasn't SSN) This pre game + post game + social media stuff they make all these guys do, it should be taken with such a huge mountain of salt that it actually makes it all pointless, it's crazy how much people hold against individuals for shite they spouted on our social media channels 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Went to have a look because I thought it was just a diesel engine tractor partner, they seem to have disappeared along with their pot noodle and Nigerian fruit juice partners Did see that they now also have Estee lauder as an official skin care partner They do of course still have their sunglasses, coffee and bed & pillow partner Therabody as their official percussive therapy device partner might be my new favourite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
