It’s as ridicules as Blues fans not enjoying the German win because Jack had a hand in the goals.

He gave Jack a hug after the game, I'm sure that will have meant the world to him. It's not like these players want to play or anything. They're just happy to make up the numbers. Lol. And fwiw Foden is equally undeserving of a place on the bench. I don’t mind different opinions. It’s the way people post at times I have a problem with. Perhaps you’re the one that needs to go to bed? Or is that just your normal personality? Edited July 3, 2021 by Vive_La_Villa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are bigger clubs than us, in terms of european football, challenging for trophies. We are aspiring to get there but we aren't there yet. That's not bigger, just more successful, imo.

chrisvilla4 Posted July 3, 2021 Share Posted July 3, 2021 Just now, sheepyvillian said: But you're missing my point there's a difference between a successful club and a big club. And, we are, without doubt a big club, and always have been, and always will be. Fact. We are a big club, a sleeping giant but in modern day terms our history is pretty irrelevant in the quick fix we are living in. And I'm not sure we were seen as a big club (big scalp maybe) in the championship. Especially given our relegation from the Premier league. Christ, we founded the league and at one point provided the most England players, but do you think any potential global superstar gives a crap about that? No. If they are a big thing its likely (and I'm generalising here) they care about 2 things: money and trophies. One day soon hopefully we can provide both but not yet, so it depends on people being patient and taking that risk I've actually forgotten the argument too as the beer is flowing and I'm buzzing for England.

Chine Posted July 3, 2021 Share Posted July 3, 2021 If England were huffing and puffing with 30 to go JG would have been put straight on no doubt about it , I’m sure we will see more of him if it gets a bit spicy, Cock nose is actually rotating his squad very well , if we go 4 up v Denmark I wouldn’t expect to see him if it’s close he’ll be on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Moustache of Teale Posted July 3, 2021 Share Posted July 3, 2021 After we beat Germany, we took great delight in laughing at the sad muppets on the Small Heath Alliance forum for not being able to enjoy or acknowledge a superb England win because Jack Grealish was involved. And now we have half of this forum unable to enjoy another cracking win because Jack Grealish wasn’t involved. FFS, don’t be as small time as them. If England keep on winning and playing I couldn’t give a monkey’s if Southgate plays Stephen Hawking ahead of Grealish. Enjoy the moment, this is England, the squad is packed with quality, and Jack is just part of the jigsaw. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To a certain extent yes. I just don't think it should be something to lorded over other clubs and fanbases to the extent that some fans do(our fans and others). Like how Arsenal fans tried to boast about their supposed stature compared to us a few weeks ago when they've been on a painful downward trend for years now. Or any of those "sleeping giants" that are currently playing in the Championship that all they can brag about now is their history. Yeah, I sure **** care that 40 years ago your clubs were once actually a big deal. Its like some guy bragging about his supermodel ex wife that divorced him 20 years ago. Like it was cool that you bagged her, but its a bit weird you're still bragging about getting her. Edited July 3, 2021 by Laughable Chimp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
