Max, you're usually a lot less pissed off on your successful Villa On Tour vlog.

The Americans , and not just at Villa , are heavily invested in the Premier League and won’t be moving on anywhere unless Trump says they would have too or when the independent regulator that comes in by the government (this is worth it’s own thread) is appointed.

By the way that’s likely to be Christian Purslow.
He’ll be having a say and making the rules for what can and cannot go on.

I don’t know if that means taking back control by the English people and investors and maybe have to see at least a minority share holder who is British or resides in UK as part of every Prem Club?

*snip*

I'd rank him below Christian Purslow, that's my preference.

The others were pretty terrible, I'm happy enough to accept that. It doesn't change my personal opinion on Chris Heck and the contempt he holds supporters in. Most of the others, for all their faults, at least pretended not to.

It is possible to have a middle ground between the two you know (as I thought Purslow was).

Yeah, I was big fan of Purslow, too - mind you, some of the stick he got was shocking, as well.  It's the kind of job where you are there to be shot at.

I think a lot of people would point to the Gerrard appointment as a big red flag for him, which is possibly fair - but if Emery was to leave tomorrow, it wouldn't be Heck replacing him, so it's not really a fair comparison.

Purslow laid down the foundations for where we are now and I think a lot of the people who criticised him then maybe have different opinions now. Or maybe they dont.

I don't.

I'm no fan of the current prick either.

Somebody else made this point earlier but it bears repeating.

Heck is a smug little shit, and I can’t bear the sight of him. I fully get why he’s here, and his modus operandi. To me he’s the face of this new money-above-all approach to football and that’s probably my problem as much as anything.

Have you got a link to the vlog please?

I'd like to see Max's stuff. I may have seen it already

He doesn't really stir up any emotions for me, mostly because of the last sentence. If it wasn't him it would be someone else.
