Johnnyp Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 I do agree with him about that it's wrong that the championship playoff final is Monday when you consider that both league one semi finals were played after our match. Also, the pitch. What will it be like after 2 games in 2 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I've just read something where Smith is saying that if we dont go up that Grealish will cost any team who wants him a fortune and even if we're in the championship next season that FFP won't really be a thing and we will get by ok. (Smith is confident there will not be a repeat of the financial problems that followed defeat in last year’s final by Fulham.) https://www.theguardian.com/football/2019/may/23/jack-grealish-will-cost-a-lot-of-money-if-aston-villa-lose-play-off-final-says-smith 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, Bruce had had his preseason, made his signings, built his squad, had a full year at it, after all but 11 games the season before. He only got us playing decent football on a handful of occasions and the whole thing was very unsustainable. He got close, but we were never going to beat fulham and defended our way past Boro really. The Smith run into the playoffs after having to find a way to sort out the totally defensively destroyed and unbalanced squad with the season well under way. All while turning a defend the 18 yard line and treat the ball like it gives you cancer style to actually playing good football. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On a serious note Smith is one game away from an amazing achievement and also a season ahead of schedule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only in the Premier League, not the Championship. With the exception that all of Leeds games will have their own dedicated VAR due to anticipated high demand, particularly in the latter part of the season as it all starts to fall apart again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
