It's happened before:https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/football/4144436/aston-villa-shirt-sales-john-terry-runs-out-letter-r/ Quote ASTON Villa have had to put sales of John Terry replica shirts on hold - as the club shop has run out of the letter ‘R’. The arrival of former England and Chelsea captain Terry has sparked a surge in demand from Villa fans. Edited July 28, 2021 by PieFacE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loads of stuff that is clearly wrong. Definitely not ITK, not even slightly ITK. If he keeps saying "deal likely next Tuesday/Wednesday" we'll sign someone (could be a youth player!) and he'll RT it. Completely full of shit. the mad thing is that even when someone from the club (tommy jordan) calls them out as bollocks, they still have over 5k followers and many still believing the tripe they come out wtih Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the letter thing doesn't matter at all and is obviously a sign of that letter being requested a lot due to the sheer number of our players with the letter in their name. We seem to be forgetting the removal of Grealish shirt(?) at the entrance--now replaced with Watkins, Buendia and Cash or similar, if I am not mistaken?

It isn't true. I went earlier to check and Christian Purslow greeted me at the door with a freshly signed Grealish contract and a crate of official PL heat press vinyl letter Es. Then everyone clapped. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deano & Dalian's Umbrella Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Has anyone who's been into the Club shop and not seen any Grealish shirts, posters etc. asked the staff why this is the case? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What has happened that’s worth being hyperbolic about? there hasn’t been a bid, there hasn’t been contract signed.

Probably just being cautious, the club shop doesn't operate in a vacuum and they will know about the speculation. That doesn't mean they know he's going, but they probably just don't want to look stupid advertising a Grealish shirt when all over social media rumours are that he's leaving. The fact is that a deal hasn't been done yet and so they couldn't possibly know in the club shop as it hasn't even happened. And if a deal had been done and the club shop employees knew he was off, someone would be telling their mates and word would spread quickly from Villa sources he's gone/going imminently which isn't the case. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okonokos Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Has anyone thought that maybe the club shop manager is just like us and has no idea whether he will stay or go, so just to be on the safe side has taken down the Grealish shirts to maybe dissuade people getting theirs printed. Doing this would just save the hassle of possibly refunding or replacing them if he does go. There's no way the club shop know what's happening. Why would they? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who would make decisions on displays and removing any Grealish related items from front and centre? Genuine question. As in, do the shop workers/manager decide or are they advised from somebody higher up at the club? Edited July 28, 2021 by PaulMcGrath_5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villaphil Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Latest is that given his heightened profile Jack wants closer to Sancho’s £250k per week, will sign once the number is right. #avfc #justmadethisup #slownewsday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hear me out what if they sold out? And hear me out further. What if the Es are out of stock because of Martinez, Buendia and Targett, on top of Grealish?
