Houlston Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 Im I the only person who remembers him being interviewed by Chris Evans on his breakfast radio show in the 90s when he said he supported Wolves as a boy? These years of supporting Villa only seem to start when he signed for us ala Robbie Keane. Yep, as I said on the previous page we have a mutual friend and when he grew up in Cannock he was a Wolves fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 He's latest tweet mentions that we don't score goals, yet yesterday he was saying we should sell Darren Bent. I'm starting to believe he's an idiot. on call collymore earlier he said that we should have used the 24m spent on bent instead on other parts of the team he even gave an example 7m cabeye, 10m on cisses and still have some money left other he stressed as well that what is teh point of having bent if you dont have the players to crate chance sfor him cant argue with that point on a side note, i find people abusing the guy really embarassing just because he doesnt share our opinion on mcleish doesnt mean he should be called every name under the sun, he is entitled to his opinion although i think its b0ll0x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Houlston Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 he stressed as well that what is teh point of having bent if you dont have the players to crate chance sfor him cant argue with that point Because the point is Bent under McLeish has still nearly scored 1 in 2 which is better than this chancing Hobo could ever muster at Villa. He also didnt endorse Bent when we first signed him, with players like Young and Downing around him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pacbuddies Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 Can anyone actually clarify where he criticised villa fans ? Well the opening paragraph of the article is hardly an example of him giving his wholehearted support to the Villa fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demitri_C Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 certianly with n zogbia and ireland oaks i agree. but albrighton for me is poor to average. he will get one good performance in 6. not good enough yes mcleish is the main reason for this but i do like bent and want him to stay but i do think another winger and a striker of cisse's mould for cheaper would have been to better use than just bent. its catch 22 really as we had the players last season but bent has not been as effective due to our wingers not being as good as last year, and the fact that mcleish is just crap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevMur Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 I'm jealous of any one who gets paid to open their gob. I think Stan has picked the wrong battle this time, and I'd suspect he doesn't care. He's probably happy that his opinions are heard by so many people. He's just stirring the pot to make his job easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 If he thinks the Villa fans' (granted, vocal) criticisms of McLeish are not in any way justified, then he is a complete idiot. Unless we best both Spurs and Norwich, this will be our worst PL season ever. You don't even have to go in detail on this one, it's pretty self explanatory. McLeish needs to go.

Moorski Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 I don't think that there is any doubt he is a Villa Fan,he will of course have different views to most on this site if folk don't agree with them so be it,we all beg to differ at times.
