    Thanks very much great interview, Agree with the points made about Steve Bruce he did a lot for Villa in taking us up from the nose dive we were on before he came to the club, nice that Keith mentioned Kodjia, Chester, Johnston, Adomah + Hourihane all players that will always be remembered fondly for their contribution to the club

    Good to hear some of these comments coming From Kieth who is talking like a Villa Fan! Glad we never got promoted that season v Fulham as Xia would have pocketed all the money himself, even though, it broke my heart, It took me 20 minutes to get up off the steps of Wembley! Xia was a waste of time and could have destroyed us.

    Good interview. Your questions led to lots of interesting answers and talking points and you could tell you'd done your research on My Wyness beforehand. Enjoyed hearing his thoughts on the differences between running a 'normal' business compared to a football club.
    Loved playing as Villa back in the old Championship Manager days in the 90s. Had some cracking players (irl and in the game) back then - Dalian Atkinson, Townsend, Alan Wright, Julian Joachim, Hadji, Lee Hendrie, etc. Shame about Nii Lamptey. Had high hopes for him after his exploits in Belgium and the Netherlands.

    Good man brucey. Did a decent job given circumstances. Didn't end well but in an odd way that was for the best as look at us now! Tony's era was obviously a strange time ownership wise but so happy with the new owners!!!!!!! Like night and day.

    This interview has changed my thoughts on Keith. I guess he was made the scape goat and I think his sueing of the club came at the wrong time given villas financial difficulties. Never liked Xia, he was nieve and immature with his tweet codes. A dark time for the club, hopefully we won't be in that place again

  • @namegoeshere6638

    The Ross mac one is odd as he had played a lot of games and scored goals prior to coming to villa. If he was a such a headache why didn't the club do due diligence on his character which is common in big money deals? Something doesnt add up. Perhaps something was going on in Ross's personal life?

    • @Skibbitypappappa
      @Skibbitypappappa 3 роки тому

      You'll probably think I'm crazy BUT....everytime I watched us during that period he was playing with Kodjia..countless times Ross got into good scoring positions and Kodbia being Kodjia would just hold onto the ball and I could see McCormacks visible frustration so many times I lost count...I honestly think he just got to a "I can't be arsed with this shit" point and it spiraled from there, coupled with his own demonstration or whatever the hell was going on
