Don't blame him at all. Oh well, how far off is Louie Barry!? He wanted to go or he was open to the idea if he would have been sold? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCJonah Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Just now, The_Steve said: I’m still confident he’s staying. There’s too much falling into place in terms of transfers and coaching hires which addresses the concerns Jack’s highlighted. Do you not think we do those things regardless? Didn't Smith have a set piece coach at Brentford? With our owners, we were always going to make positive moves this summer. I don't think you can read it as only doing it to keep Jack here.

alreadyexists Posted August 3, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted August 3, 2021 2 minutes ago, It's Your Round said: I don’t want to alarm anyone but I’ve just broken into Villa Park... no signs of Jack having emptied out his locker. But I did ask the steward at the front there, and he said Jack’s definitely staying... This is fake, the seats would have T-shirt’s on this time of year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if the delay was even more money for Jack, the fans don't care about this, they simply want to know if their hero is committed or not. It would be madness to not confirm this to the fans just before a new season... *bursts into tears* Willing to listen *sob* to alternative takes, but not for much longer. I need a break from all this. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 13 minutes ago, avfc1982am said: Hendrie, Hutton definitely have contact with Jack and possibly Elphick. They are coming out with the same stuff, "he wants to go", " He wants the challenge", "He deserves it". Why do people think that is, seriously? Do you honestly think they would speak shit just to drive a narrative that in essence is against a club they respect(in Hendries case support) These players are closer to Jack professionally and more likely to be his mouthpiece than a bunch of randoms. They imo are airing his feeling's without the need for him to commit publicly until the situation is resolved between the clubs. As I said, I think they are prepping the fan base. It's what I think is happening, not what necessarily is. had anyone heard a peep out of hutton or elphick for the last 2 years? nope, thought not "i havent got a clue mate but i'll say whatever if it gets me on your show for 10 mins and you pay me a small fee, what are you and your betting partners pushing at the moment? leaving? yeah i can make that work" 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GENTLEMAN Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Has anyone actually watched the interview with Elphick? He is quite balanced. Great cherry picking by Sky for the headline though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a Whatsapp group with 8 people I went to uni with - an absolutely stunning range of conversation topics including what the weather did yesterday, Happy Birthday Steve, and does anyone own a lawn mower.

We won't until he signs it. The next bit of news we'll get will either be a) a bid has been accepted via the official site or b) a reliable journalist will announce that the $hitty deal is off.
