How did I try to bait you? I asked would people be happy signing Mendy and I stated I that as he was found not guilty he should be given a 2nd chance and I would be happy if Villa signed him

And that is why you're obviously not accepted on Villa Forum's

Definitely get the impression from Bobble's podcast that there's no chance for and nothing to the Gnonto story, beyond the fact we like him as a player.

Every time he is brought up, he moves on quickly as if it is total nonsense. Wouldn't get your hopes up guys.

Same not going to take it as true but same time still have it in my head, similar to the young transfer sonetimes comes out before others say. Did not expect us to be looking at gnonto

He hears bits tbf. But he also says he doesn't hear everything.
Fairly sure he had no sniff of the Ashley Young deal until many others reported it .

For what it's worth, I'm hearing Adama Traore is a goer. Rodrigo wanted astronomical wages

If it was your daughter that lost her life because Mr Alonso decided to get behind the wheel of a car drunk and drove over the speed limit I doubt you would be saying that he didn't take her life regardless of the fact he didn't pre-meditate what happened mate.

I feel modern football fans by large have become hypocritical when it comes to morals concerning the sport. Some will scoff at seeing Greenwood play football again but will happily watch a league thats awash with middle eastern blood money & tuned in / travelled to watch a world cup that was built by slaves.

Even your average football club owner have become criminal's - Notts Forest's owner is linked with drug trafficking, ours involved with dodgy russian money, that 777 group implicated in all kinds of shenanigans and then you have the Saudi's, UAE, Qatari's etc.

If I had my way the likes of Greenwood/Alonso would be behind bars to serve time, gangsters and murderers banned from owning clubs but FB92 doesn't make the rules.

There is a difference between being responsible for something happening and deliberately choosing to make it happen
It is a key factor in establishing the category of crime and subsequent punishment
Demonstrated remorse also plays a part in the punishment

You are deliberately expanding the argument to ownership, oil money, drug trafficking in order to dilute your original stance
They are not the same thing, though reprehensible, it is not the discussion we are having.

Besides younger children are far more influenced by famous footballers than billionaire accountants and Oil regimes that don't sign up to Human Rights Charters. They don't even know the latter exist

You have now said:

I dont see any reason from a club stand point to avoid him when he's never been convicted in the courts.

and

Clearly he was guilty of what was alleged

I'm just not hypocritical in my stance towards football mate - you are repulsed by Greenwood kicking a ball around whilst you try explain away Alonso taking a young girls life away via drunk driving all whilst turning a blind eye to Bin Salman buying up football whilst his regime murders people, slaves dying in soaring heat building stadiums so we can watch in awe Messi lift a world cup in Qatari robe.

I'm not saying I'm not turning a blind eye to all that btw - I wish I was strong enough to walk away from modern football but unfortunately I love the sport too much to take a moral stance against it therefore I cant sit here and demand Greenwood be hanged from the nearest lamp post whilst accepting all of the above - Im sorry if that makes me a bad guy.

Anyway back to transfer business !

Just another strawman argument
I didn't turn a blind eye to anything...maybe you need to read it again, I don't care

You contradict yourself in the extreme, and then exaggerate and twist the opposing argument into utter nonsense in some attempt to justify it, but you fail at it.

You got your attention, more fool me for giving it
you're edgy, bravo

Like, I'm not saying sign a sex offender...


but didn't we earn some sex offender bonus points by banning a player that was never charged so we could maybe have a bit of one for a couple of seasons?

 

[hoppy]

Rodrigo wanted 200 grand a week to come to everton told him to get stuffed

Being known as 'THE PEOPLES CLUB'

I'm surprised Mendy hasn't already offered his services..

 

[Andy is the King]

For what it's worth, I'm hearing Adama Traore is a goer. Rodrigo wanted astronomical wages

His name pops up from time to time, same with Che Adams. Apparently we are mulling, thinking, watching, contemplating Adams at the moment.

Is he any better than Maupay?

I reckon we'll get Elanga on loan with an option and Gnonto permanent IF Gray goes
