Is this old news?
I really don’t know, as I feel a bit out of the loop lately, with me working seven days a week and basically getting far less sleep than is anywhere near comfortable for me.
Anyway, Giddy asked me what the bras in the training in the US pics were about and I immediately assumed it was one of the American clubs sponsors or something.
Until a search revealed this (about a quarter of the way down the page atm);
https://www.facebook.com/statsports?hc_location=timeline
They’re a sports science company, who apparently have one of the best monitoring apps/pieces of kit going.
As one of the replies suggests, they’re supposed to be the dog’s danglies in their field and seem to have been working for the German international squad.
And we’ve apparently agreed a long term deal with them.
So why has this not been mentioned anywhere else?
Of course, it’s always possible that I’ve missed it, but a quick search on the OS reveals nothing.
To me, this is quite an important link-up and certainly more important than what’s being offered at the VMF restaurant, regardless of how highly it might be rated.
If they are indeed rated as highly as it seems, it would appear we’ve made a choice that we should be shouting about as a positive.
I’m not mad about all this stuff, as my views are well known in that the team are only playing two games a week and it should easily be within them at this sort of age.
But then, I’m frequently reminded that I’m behind the times.
If this link-up helps us, it doesn’t matter.
I’m all in favour of it.

Hi mate hope your getting the San Miguel down your Gregory,have 10 for me Bill have a good un. 😀
I see Christian Big Bollocks is bigging himself up again!
Ooha what do you expect him to say???I’m not looking forward to playing in the team again,I’m going to make sure I don’t score any goals & as for the fans they’ve been nothing but disrespectful towards me.come on mate ffs
ive had a few Giddy thanks , not much to say really getting pissed every day.
No he’s angling for a club to buy him he’s saying hello sky four I’m injured but by Xmas il be available to join you!
Ooha you should work for MI5 deciphering codes,how the hell you came to that conclusion is well beyond me.

i like a flutter or two lol, but i would be totally surprised if lambert leaves his post either voluntary or sacked. also if this happen to be the first manager 2 bite the bullet first
sam big allardyce is nailed on 4me 2 leave. reasons are the board have insisted he play more expansive football, they don’t av the players 2 do this and his methods get results but the board and fans don’t want 2 see this style. so hes dead man walking only reason i aven’t taken the bet is hes massively odds on
alan pardew and harry redcrapp both are top bets both around 10/1 same as lambert i would rather tenner on pardew being his actions last year, his players seem 2 me not like him and lost respect so thats were i would flutter
Hope he does go but then we will be stuck with keane ffs
Forest have signed Burke today.
Villa have signed 3 Burke’s so far!!!!

Interesting to hear about an American Billionaire being at the game to see if Villa are worth investing in, as a few people posted a photo of Lerner entering the stadium talking to a man who looked an awful lot like Arison..
I think you’ll find that was a sarcastic remark by Kendrick aimed at Lerner!
IncogAVFC has tweeted that even though he has no names, last night and again this morning he was informed that Lerner was in advanced talks with his preferred buyer, and expects to have a deal done by the start of September.
