hippo Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 Perhaps we should break away from the EFL and threaten to form our league, with just us and Doncaster in it - we would win the league every year ! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is because he has looked abysmal in 100% of the games he's played, even when he scored. He does absolutely nothing. Whatever. Why people have to be so extreme in their opinions of our own players is beyond me. On this forum I had an argument with a guy who wanted to sell Grealish for £5m so I think I'll let the football do the talking. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talldarkandransome Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 I've never understood FFP and doubt I ever will. But I would rather we stayed on the right side of it then risking big fines or points deductions. We missed the boat getting up with the big boys a few years ago and I really can't see us getting near anytime soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fun Factory Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 Would people rather see the club sell bodymoor to keep grealish, or keep the training ground that produced players like Jack, and selling Grealish? Personally flogging bodymoor would seem like a very bad idea imo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutByEaster? Posted June 1, 2018 Moderator Share Posted June 1, 2018 The new train line clips a corner. I'm not sure what selling Bodymoor would give us - I'm not sure it would be easy to get planning permission to build anything profitable on it.

villakram Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 An awful lot of people appear to be assuming the Jack will want to stay. He needs to be playing premier league football next season to continue his development. I'll be astonished if he stays. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidcow Posted June 1, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted June 1, 2018 What I don't understand is why didn't we sponsor Bodymoor Heath starting 2 years ago, sponsor the stands, sponsor Villa Park. If we could have earned say £2m in each of the last 2 seasons and £2m next season how much smaller would our FFP target be now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would suggest playing week in week out at his boyhood club and fighting to take them up would be just as if not MORE valuable. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was already aware of these I was thinking about others, this has come something out of the Blue. Maybe we have money due for Carlos Sanchez or others.

I doubt it ,Sanchez too old when we sold him that he would go anywhere else after for a bigger fee .Gueye we had to sell as had clause n contract so no chance we have a sell on with him or an extras for appearances Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
