Back to being a fan as I’m m sick of Villans soap opera

-

I’M disgusted with everything that has gone on at Aston Villa of late and I’ve been so wound up over the last three or so years that I’ve just decided to take my relationsh­ip with them back to what it was when I was aged 11.

I’ll support the players out on the pitch wearing those claret and blue shirts but I’ve no interest in the manager or the board. As long as I have a football club to support, I just don’t have any thoughts on the latest takeover.

It used to be the case that fans didn’t know who the board was because they just used to run the club well in the background.

So I’ve reverted back to supporter and I don’t care who o owns them anymore. THERE’S obviously a Silva tax on Richarliso­n — how else can you explain Everton paying Watford £50million for ap a player whose output has been average? But what makes that sum even more o obscene is the fact it was agreed around the same time football was discussing the funding put into the grassroots game from the Premier League, the EFL and the FA. It’s the sort of figure that could have k kept football at that level going for two y years. Yet it was spent on a man (left) who scor scored five goals in 41 games last season and ha hasn’t found the net since mid-November.
