By this logic McDonalds must make the best food on earth. You really do come out with some absolutely brainless takes on things.

Get it right up Villa. Horrid club and wretched fans. I shall be walking into my work office in the West Midlands tomorrow beaming like the Cheshire Cat (we work bank holidays before anyone says anything!) Lest they forget the goal they conceded that never was - because of a goal-line tech fuck up - in the 19-20 Covid season at home vs. Sheff United, that had it been corrected awarded would have seen them relegated at the season's end.

Wonder what became of that KFC

Villa have lodged a complaint after ref Bramall blew for what tv says is an incorrect decision preventing a villa goal. VAR could not get involved. Villa saying ref should have been more experienced due to what was at stake. Bramall has been ref at 12 championship games in 24-25. Can't see villa will get a satisfactory answer from this. Games over and refs decision is final in this case.

You bastards, I thought he’d died for a minute!

8 years old in my blue n white stripes pyjamas sat on the bottom step sobbing my heart out after Waddles miss and mum saying "That's it theyre out he's missed it what a shame" Tears just came out and i didnt even have a clue why. All I know is I love watching England in tournaments I dont care if its boring to most. Still have those hopes and dreams as a kid, seeing them play. I owe it to that 8 year old to win a major. If we won a world cup I'd absolutely lose my shit 🤣 You can imagine the rest when we won several shoot outs in recent years. Yep I cried.

So what you're saying is that we'd need a massive trasfer windfall, say something to the tune of ~£30million and spend less than half of that to have a real chance.

Not stooges from what I’ve seen. Most fans I’ve spoken to away from brfcs have had little issue with the decision.

No we don't all we have to go on is what players say and the evidence before our eyes of players not re-signing. I'd say it doesn't paint a great picture. Also Gestedes title is a farce he's head of nothing he is just carrying out instructions given to him from above and how many Heads of Football operations have the catering staff reporting to them ? 🤣

We all know that he won a trophy. Assuming that he isn't potted imminently after overseeing their worst league season in decades, that will soon be forgotten though come the new season, when, if they don't radically and quickly improve their league form, he will be history.

If they had sense they would rectify their mistake and sack him. Thankfully they dont have any.

I wouldn't appointed him. I think they should have gone for Thomas Frank instead

He went on the razz though and gave Hoddle the excuse he was looking for.

Gestede is the head of football operations as he was when appointed 12 months ago. Adam Owen is in charge technical development at Rovers Unless you are in room when contracts are negotiating when any of us really know

Imagine Gazza and ZZ behind the SAS

Mahonney, Bennett to name 2, Lenihen off the record. Gives a clear idea of how the approach things whilst Pasha has been in charge. Rudy Gestede by the way started on work experience then was given the title of Head of Depts but now i presume he's called Sporting Director but he hasn't got the DoF title. The guy is in charge of catering and everything else judging by his No Tippy Tappy podcast so i'm not sure what use he'll be negotiating contracts.

Where were you at Wembley!

Hes a pretty shoddy manager then. As we have seen.

Surely they are stooges. Who the fk would consider that the right decision or be gappy about it. Those girls have worked their arses off to stay up

Always liked Charlton away, think they’ll struggle massively though after watching that game

Italia 90 was too early for me. World Cup 94 was my first memories of international football competitions and my first memory was England beating San Marino after the scored in the first seconds of the game

maybe he can only coach that style and formation? Amorim has been 3-4-2-1 formation head coach since he started his coaching hasn't he?

That's up there with micheal Owens goal V Argentina. Italia 90 was where it all began for me 💚🤍🤎

We have director of Football in Gestede to be honest who deals with the Recruitment and transfers and Adam Owen deal with the other side of the DoF as Gestede has said Phillips wanted out when GB and JDT came in and somehow they convince him to stay and sign a new contract but he and his agent was a release clause based on the number of minutes played. Should we have played him more to get an higher transfer fee? Blackburn Rovers' dilemma with Phillips before Spurs move | Lancashire Telegraph Ashley Phillips to Tottenham: Blackburn Rovers camp reveal impressive seven-figure transfer save which players? do you have a link to articles about this?

Thanks KentExile. Tyrone and Higgins have been all the talk and I remember how well Phillips was spoken of coming through as was Wharton. I knew of Eze but just hadn't picked up on any particular hype
