Keyblade Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 2 minutes ago, Kiwivillan said: People can say how good he's been for us and thanks for all he's done but this is leaving us in the lurch massively. 5 year deal signed last season believes in the project, my city my club. Total bollocks. This is as bad or worse than Delph and up there with MON walking out. I'll be just about done with the PL. City financial frauds getting away with murder and nothing done about it. I'll honestly be taking a long break from football if it happens. It's just not fun anymore. Just like when we were really doing something too. I'll just follow the Raptors rebuild instead. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aston_Villan4 Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 I've never hyper-analyzed the wording in John Percy articles but I'll be damned if I this isn't making my head spin trying to understand it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 Hope the fans don't feel any anger towards Grealish if he does leave. He always gave his best on the pitch for us and without his contribution we'd still be in the championship. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It makes perfect sense if he both has a release clause and wants to leave. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he leaves now, I’ll be angry as f***. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a little though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But again, why is it not being reported as them activating a release clause. I've never seen a team activate a release clause but all reporting says "_____ has made an offer" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delphinho123 Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 The £100m fee screams ‘release clause’. No way he leaves for that amount without one. It’s a poor deal for us but if they had to include it to get him to stay one more season then I guess their hands were tied. They shot themselves horribly in the foot when they featured him in the kit launch. It’s stuff like that, that makes me worried we’re not run by the geniuses we all think we are. Ismailia Sarr and Todd F****** Cantwell? 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anger towards him would be an understatement. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a clause had been activated, it would not only be in the article, it would be the headline. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zhan_Zhuang Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 According to Percy: "negotiations expected to be concluded swiftly". Basically that could be interpreted as Villa roll over and take it! Same old, same old....what's the point eh? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brumstopdogs Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 I'm still a believer. Yes, he may well go but until there is an official announcement that he has joined City then there is a chance he stays! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Creeper Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 I always thought you couldn't have a medical unless a bid has been accepted? which if the bid has been, you'd think that the club would be releasing something saying so considering the calibre of player?
