I disagree completely about your point about collymore, he didn't critique jack he warned him of the people that would try bring you down and secretly love it when you fail. I thought that was very noble of Stan to be honest. really don't understand why collymore gets slated for absolutely anything he says about villa even when he is completely right about things. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 Why does he need to say anything? Jack has an unwanted headline in 2 newspapers, Stan collymore now has an open letter in about 5 of them if he wants to reach out to Jack Grealish then go do it, if he wants to reach out to millions of people on social media and paint himself as a Samaritan then write open letter stan being Stan did the latter chris suttons in the media this morning giving his ten pence, who cares, the club should have put it to bed immediately 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wainy316 Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 So as a footballer you're not every allowed a bit of fun ever? Players usually get the day following a match off. There's no evidence to suggest he was even wasted anyway. This is why I hate football of today, cannot relate to the players at all. They've all been turned into footballing robots. This is shown by their inability to hold a basic conversation in English. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no evidence, at present, that he was drunk etc or did anything wrong and this was at a time when he would have had a day off the next day. If as part of the clubs investigation they turn up any wrong doing by Jack, other than having been at a party that got a little out of hand, then they should come down on him heavily. Let’s wait and see though as despite his previous then for now I am happy to give him the benefit of the doubt. I also agree with others that both Collymore and Xia sticking their beaks in publically as kept a non story going way longer than it deserved. Xia especially should have waited to see what his own clubs investigation found before commenting. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can no longer even be present at rowdy hotel parties at flash hotels. If he becomes a superstar then maybe he will get away it but until he proves himself he really does need to stop giving the media ammunition.

Difference Is mcgrath performed on the pitch. Grealish only performs on the odd occasion. I have absolutely no interest what professional footballers get upto in their spare time, providing they perform on the pitch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same Xia who is quick to rubbish the media on occasions, e.g Holloway or people questioning his wealth/legitimacy, takes them at their word here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually think Collymore is in a far better place to comment for lots of reasons not least he isn't directly involved in the club. I've largely been supporting of the Dr's activity on Twitter with the odd exception but I think these comments were ill advised even if well intentioned.

But surely you can see a difference between an out of work pundit getting his name out there and the man who employs jack and owns the club he plays for.

omariqy Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 Judging from RDM's comments he is not happy at all with Jack. It seems like Jack has actually done something wrong rather than a hack journo attacking him for no reason. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
