I know it’s talkSPORT and they like to play dumb on certain things, and if that is the case here then Agbonlahor could be the best method actor I’ve seen.

But how can he not figure out that just because their owner is rich doesn’t mean the club is

He's no method actor.
His repeated wail of "It's not fair" was about the limit of his comprehension and engagement with the whole topic.

Expecting an intelligent and articulate response from an ex-player is an exercise in futility.

Appreciate it when it does happen, but treat that as the exception not the norm.

I think that he might be the thickest clam that I have ever seen or heard on any TV or radio broadcast anywhere, including Donald Trump. He is the number 1 reason that I quit listening to TalkSport. This video vindicates my decision entirely.
 
To be fair he has a point if you break it down. Its just that Chelsea and City did it before the rules came in. We often had wealthy owners come in and put their own money into the side and elevate them higher than they ever should have been. Chelsea were close to going bankrupt when Abramovich came in. City were a club that went up and down and were nowhere near a premiership. So these rules came in and yes they benefit those clubs that already have a high turnover of revenue. We also have rich owners but this is what levy did. he set us up with all the PSR rules in mind to maximise what we could be able to spend. The problem was he negotiated too hard with players. And we could never sign the top players.

so yes Villa can dream. They need a plan. Build a bigger stadium and hike their tickets to what we have to pay. Then try to get other activities at thier ground. Birmingham are using some foresight. They can take things from the NEC and get bigger gigs at their ground if they get it up first.

Villa are a club with history. But they never invest in themselves. They struggle to get good shirt sponsorships and well they have sold their best players the last two years.

the scary part is that he is honest and sincere - and that the audience agrees !

Don’t think my Mum would defend me like Jordan defends Levy.

don't particularly like Jordan but absolutely nothing wrong with sticking up for your mates especially as Daniel normally stays quiet
 
Yea not exactly sure what he’s said wrong there? Though I didn’t like the RDZ dig!

I know Jim Whites there to play devils advocate but he genuinely seemed confused that the owners have put more money in now and it wasn’t there before. Maybe he’s being genuine though and some Spurs fans are the same and don’t understand either?

A mental image of 2 fat, sweaty brummies, one naked but for a Birmingham shirt and one naked but for a Villa shirt, both desperately trying to get it up first whilst staring each other in the face and shouting "Yow bloody blue nose yuv got now chance maaate"

But it highlights two big issues with the current moaning

- The same media that is questioning Spurs spend, bum licked Chelsea and City for over a decade
- Everyone is failing to acknowledge the two decades of work off the pitch (yes, again the thing that has been mocked for years) that has given us the financial ability that neither Villa or Saudi Sportswashing Machine have done.

couldn't the financial ability - owners pumping in money - come 1 or 2 years ago ?
