It seems weird to us who aren't involved in the professional game, but I'm sure Grealish snr. is incredibly proud of his son and all that he has achieved. Jack may have come across as a pillock at times, but it's clear he comes from a good family so a bit odd to bring them into it. I think someone is just observing the cognitive dissonance, that's all. I mean, it was kind of hard to swallow the change. I didn't take it as anything more ... (And that's a bump, mate.)

No I get that, but in response to the original point - ten years ago I imagine that Jack's dad envisioned his son having a successful career in professional football. He's achieved that and then some. People really need to let it go, a lot of posts here are reminiscent of a jilted ex oversharing on Facebook 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On a side note, it is my singular goal on Villatalk life to overshare. I love that word. I love oversharers, as long as they let me overshare, too. If you would ever life to hear about my feelings about my long-lost pet hamster, Binky, I stand prepared to unload, just so you know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MNVillan Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 Came across this again tonight, and thought I’d share. Truly the perfect response for his return. It was the only match I’ve ever seen at Villa Park, and this video still gives me chills. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it would be far weirder for his dad to refuse to wear the shirt of the team his son plays for because of his allegiance to Villa. He's a grown up ffs 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Trafford bizarre refereeing is well and truly back. As for Jack, seems to be a good impact sub.

Marka Ragnos Posted January 17, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted January 17, 2023 Imagine a world where a great footballer really does make a firm commitment to the club and community and risks sacrificing millions to do so in a sentimental belief in the team’s future.

HKP90 Posted January 17, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted January 17, 2023 Can I just say that this thread has become much more interesting over the last two pages. Who thought when it started 3814 pages ago that we'd be talking about f***ing hamsters. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
