Confirmed Signing Jack Harrison

[ToffeeTim]

Another embarrassing episode for this football club

Another shambolic day for the recruitment team and Kevin Thelwell.

over a player wanting to go to a better club?

of course lad

Heads should roll mate. It shouldn't ever happen let alone twice in six months over two separate loan deals.

This deal was literally a fixed fee which automatically grants him permission to talk.

We could have done it weeks ago. We should have had everything wrapped up so the medical is the last thing to be done.

Maybe if people didn’t leak information out for clicks and ego boosts these things would
Be more secretive ,but for whatever reason the communications department Kenyon / Maghazachi seem to want eveything leaked

@Toffeenut74 your only meant to use two fingers, not go down to the wrist bone....jesus

We need to go make a statement signing and soon, this is quickly becoming a disaster

I disagree, we've been gently simmering up to this point for about 50 years.

Can’t blame him. He has just gone through two successive relegation battle with Leeds so why join another. Can’t be fun. Will get plenty of game time with Villa in Europe. Personally I am not too upset. Mid level player with little room for improvement on big wages

I hate Bill Kenwright

We need to go make a statement signing and soon, this is quickly becoming a disaster

I'm absolutely sure we'll bring in a signing that makes a statement...just a completely incompetent, ill thought out unambitious and depressing statement!

Come now what do you want them to do if he wants to join another team?! We are v unattractive

 

[ford_uk]

Its been said loads, but Amazon would make an award winning documentary with this lot.

 

[MikeH72]

Thank god we kept hold of Bill and his contacts.

 

[Liam-EFC]

We’re a laughing stock.

 

[BlueStevie35]

Regardless of the player's quality, this shambles indicates how totally useless Kenwright, Thelwell etc really are. Harrison has been their target all summer, and a properly-run club would have signed him when the window opened.

Utter embarrassment of a club.

If we signed him when injured in June, there would be howls of derision, when the news broke this morning there were howls of derision because he’s injured, there’s now howls of derision because Villa are signing the same injured player

 

[Del-boy]

He’s a kopite anyway..

 

[Bristol Blue]

Top work by the club wasting months trying to sign a player that’s injured, only for him to bin us off. Complete amateurs.

Not bothered that he’s not coming here. We need players that are ready to play now. Our squad isn’t big enough to wait for someone to get fit.

We all knew we’re a shambles, but jeez it really is pathetic!
