How do you post a video asking people to stay inside only to then accept an invite round a friends house? Like **** hell Jack use that thing inside your skull, thought he was past this stuff. Particularly if it is **** Ross McCormack! Has this boy no sense of judgement whatsoever? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Steve Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 (edited) Site is crashing but the statement is slightly stronger than I imagined. Still, not sure it will be sufficient in the long run. The club need to hold some intervention or something. Edited March 30, 2020 by The_Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbcuk Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 Aston Villa is deeply disappointed that one of our players ignored the Government’s guidance on staying at home during the Coronavirus crisis. Club Captain Jack Grealish has accepted that his decision to leave his house was wrong and entirely unnecessary. It breached the government guidelines which are clear and should be adhered to by everybody. The player will be disciplined and fined with the proceeds donated to The University Hospitals Charity in Birmingham. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems not but maybe making a right tit of himself and landing himself in the papers for the wrong reasons might straighten him out At the least you would expect family and friends to advise him against hanging around with someone like Ross again He has issued an apology to start with and I'm sure the club will make a statement soon also Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Steve Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 (edited) Jack embarrassed the club again with that video. Why was the statement not put out hours ago? Edited March 30, 2020 by The_Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post OutByEaster? Posted March 30, 2020 Moderator Popular Post Share Posted March 30, 2020 As someone who has done one or two stupid things in life, I think you have to have a little empathy with the players position. He looks like he hasn't slept since yesterday and that he's cried his eyes out - he'll know more than anyone that he's been an idiot, that he's let himself and the club and all of us and all the kids that idolise him down, he'll know what that means for him and he'll know what a knob he'll look because of that - and he'll only be able to blame himself for it. That ain't a good place to be and it takes a little courage to come out and speak on it, directly, rather than through a press officer. I'm happy to call him whatever we want to call him, depending on what it transpires he's done, but I'm not going to put an extra kick into a 24 year old who's telling us how embarrassed he is and wearing the weight of his own foolishness on his shoulders. He's been a wazzock. His face says he knows it. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farlz Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 Just really am gutted. This is a player I admire so so much and yet again through his own stupidity he's let us fans down, the club down and dragged his name through the mud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 It’s just so stupid, barely half a day after saying stay home he went out to see his mate. What a dickhead. Clearly thinks Villa fans are idiots too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why? Because he plays for the team you support? Now he's admitted he was out seeing friends, criticise away. He deserves it. But I would not defend him based on the team I support. As I said earlier in the thread today... 5 hours ago, Okonokos said: Same. The only thing I miss about football is playing it. I can honestly say I haven't missed watching football in the slightest. Things like this won't exactly help me want it back any time soon. More important things. I really couldn't care less about football right now. This issue is nothing to do with football. I just wanted to wait until the facts emerged rather than relying on Twitter and the Scum. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s embarrassed because he got caught, he wouldn’t be feeling embarrassed if he hadn’t crashed his car outside and been labelled as an idiot on the front of the red tops. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's taking the piss and its spitting in the face of everyone making personal sacrifices and especially those working on the frontline. He's disgraced himself and he should feel bad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
