Played in an FA Cup final and a league Cup final, the latter of which was ermmmm against them You could also argue he's actually won a trophy and medal in the play off final though that would probably invite more taunts. In fairness, if they’re claiming the community shield as a trophy, then we can probably claim the playoff final as a trophy. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post TRO Posted August 5, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 5, 2021 (edited) 19 minutes ago, TheMelvillan said: just to play devils advocate we havent actually heard anything directly from the club or the player so to put words, feelings, emotions, motivations, conversations on any of the parties involved is slightly unfair. for all we know the club are delighted to be getting £100,000,000 for a player and are the ones pushing this. not at all saying this is the case but not until the dust settles and maybe a bit down the line when info leaks out will we know the truth I'm sure they are.....no time for sour grapes but 14 goals, 16 assists in 62 games, with a player with an inherent injury issue....its not a one sided deal IMO, by any stretch. We have come out of it very well.....not to mention the confidence the owners must feel, securing that huge sum from an academy player.....How much does that encourage them to spend more?..and invest in the academy. I think its a result for the owners, and crikey they deserve it. Edited August 5, 2021 by TRO 10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QldVilla Posted August 5, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted August 5, 2021 17 minutes ago, The_Steve said: That’s what it feels like. Nothing he says has value. Just lies. Rather he leave now then we go through this again next year because he cannot decide how much money he wants to squeeze out of NSWE. We’ve all been emotional the last few days, but when the dust settles we support Aston Villa, not just one player. We had a personal connection to Jack because of his background, but we now know that connection only went one way. Its disappointing, but we are now only 2-3 players away from having a very good football team and I couldn’t be more excited. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post birdman Posted August 5, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 5, 2021 A while back I smugly declared Jack wouldnt leave Villa this summer and I pledged to donate 20 quid to Acorns if he did. Well, it's very bad karma not to follow that up so seeing as Jack has left the building, so has 20 quid from my wallet. No bother of course, great charity!

Popular Post Dave-R Posted August 5, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 5, 2021 If he's gone, I won't be posting in here no more. It's not that I feel annoyed, frustrated that he's left us for a team realistically better than us whatever the reason are, be it money or trophys. Honestly it would be for the personal reasons I went through why I'd feel gutted he's gone and losing my mum to cancer. How she got me that Villa shirt with Jacks name on the back in August for my birthday in 2018 and then passed on Jack's birthday on September the 10th. Jack didn't know none of that and it's not that he'd not care if he did know but the lad has to think of what's best for him in the long run. Jacks becoming more a big well known big superstar after everything that has happened, it's hard to stop him going off for honours. All I can say is I will be gutted and sad but that's because of the above and not because he's left the Villa for City but the close ties and the strange occurance of me losing my mum In the way that I did will always be there. All I can say is goodluck to him,the move was always going to happen at some point, but I am done with Jack if he goes and shall remain silent with him throughout the rest of his career because I am a Villa fan and not a Grealish fan any longer becaus he's not at the club any longer. I'd still where his shirt that my mum got me, will most likely get grief for the fact he no longer a Villa player, it won't however be for the name on the back it will just be the fact that my mother brought it me and that how I will see it now. Jack we will see you on the other half of the pitch I guess and we shall stop you, oh boy Villa will. 16 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidcow Posted August 5, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted August 5, 2021 Whatever happens next season. However good or bad we are we absolutely HAVE to beat shitty. The boys have got to give everything in that game. Need to play like against Liverpool last year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
