If this Aston Villa team wasn’t restricted by PSR, they would be consistently challenging for the Premier League title & be a regular in the latter stages of the Champions League
PSR restricts their spending & squad depth which hinders their progress, which PSR is designed to do
“The bad news is that Unai Emery’s Aston Villa are probably not as good as their results suggest… Because of the underlying numbers”
This 10 minute video of absolute nonsense isn't from this season, but from over 2 and a half years ago.
It's some purple patch isn't it? 🤷🏼♂️
@MonuAFC@WillBroadbent@GarySmithJnr Villa's rate is 2.78pts/gm after the bad start. I've not come across a single Villa fan that thinks we will keep that rare and I imagine I follow a lot more Villa media than you (if not, that says more about you and Arsenal fans).
@MonuAFC@WillBroadbent@GarySmithJnr You said "it all comes crashing down". No Villa fan around thinks we will win every game this season. But to pretend that we haven't had sustained success by saying it's "unsustainable" just makes you look ignorant of what Villa is actually doing.
@MonuAFC@WillBroadbent@GarySmithJnr It's been 3 years of sustained success with the deck stacked against Villa (farcical FFP rules) and far greater financial challenges than the teams around. You can keep pointing to any team and say they will eventually hit a blip and be right. That's not really proving anything.
Once again, a bullet has silenced the most eloquent truth teller of an era. My dear friend Charlie Kirk was our country's relentless and courageous crusader for free speech. We pray for Erika and the children. Charlie is already in paradise with the angels. We ask his prayers for our country.
One year later, every words comes stronger: we keep fighting this situation to deliver a good team and comply with PSR and UEFA rules. As difficult it is, we won’t give up..( Thanks and good luck JJ) 👇🏻
A Tifo descends from The Holte End. “No limits to our dreams” is the quote.
Probably apart from PSR, SCR and The Football Earnings Rule, but enough of that for ninety minutes. What a buzz around the stadium.

Unai Emery's programme notes: "Financial controls came into football to avoid bankruptcies, but we should review it, for this good tool will become a limitation for the clubs that are doing good management, who will never be allowed to dream and get higher goals."

This 'why do you care about a tiny fraction of the population?' line is, and always was, utterly ridiculous.
Gender ideology has undermined freedom of speech, scientific truth, gay rights, and women's and girls' safety, privacy and dignity. It's also caused irreparable physical damage to vulnerable kids.
Nobody voted for it, the vast majority of people disagree with it, yet it has been imposed, top down, by politicians, healthcare bodies, academia, sections of the media, celebrities and even the police. Its activists have threatened and enacted violence on those who've dared oppose it. People have been defamed and discriminated against for questioning it. Jobs have been lost and lives have been ruined, all for the crime of knowing that sex is real and matters.
When the smoke clears, it will be only too evident that this was never about a so-called vulnerable minority, notwithstanding the fact that some very vulnerable people have been harmed. The power dynamics underpinning our society have been reinforced, not dismantled. The loudest voices throughout this entire fiasco have been people insulated from consequences by their wealth and/or status. They aren't likely to find themselves locked in a prison cell with a 6'4" rapist who's decided his name's now Dolores. They don't need state-funded rape crisis centres, nor do they ever frequent high street changing rooms. They simper from talk show sofas about those nasty far-right bigots who don't want penises swinging around the girls' showers, secure in the knowledge that their private pool remains the safe place it always was.
Those who've benefited most from gender identity ideology are men, both trans-identified and not. Some have been rewarded for having a cross-dressing kink by access to all spaces previously reserved for women. Others have parlayed their delicious new victim status into an excuse to threaten, assault and harass women. Non-trans-identified leftybros have found a magnificent platform from which to display their own impeccably progressive credentials, by jeering and sneering at the needs of women and girls, all while patting themselves on the back for giving away rights that aren't theirs.
The actual victims in this mess have been women and children, especially the most vulnerable, gay people who've resisted the movement and paid a horrible price, and regular people working in environments where one misplaced pronoun could see you vilified or constructively dismissed. Do not tell me this is about a tiny minority. This movement has impacted society in disastrous ways, and if you had any sense, you'd be quietly deleting every trace of activist mantras, ad hominem attacks, false equivalence and circular arguments from your X feeds, because the day is fast approaching when you'll want to pretend you always saw through the craziness and never believed it for a second.
Note to players. If you go down after a challenge and we’re not sure what happened, “hold something” and leave it to us, we’ll send the opposition player off 👍🏻
Anthony Taylor has just guessed.
I am shocked they released this footage.
It shows complete incompetence.
I am furious at this, and to then uphold the ban after a review following the game proves they don’t know what they are doing.

RFK Jr: “Vice President Harris said today in her speech that president Trump was gonna turn the US military against the American public.”
“What’s interesting to me is that the Biden/Harris administration did something 2 weeks ago that has never been done in American history, which is to send a directive to the Pentagon, changing a law to make it legal for the US military to use lethal force against American citizens on American soil.”
“Technically now it's legal for the US military under this directive to shoot and k*** Americans who engage in political protest because they disagree with policies in the White House.”
“This did not come from Donald Trump. It came from the Democratic party, and that's why I left the Democratic party.”
