As Smith said in his last post match interview for us

 

"I'll always be a villa fan

I think this quote from Smith on his relationship with Bali Mumba sums up his reign:

"I messaged him a couple of times and he replied, who is this? So he hadn’t obviously stored the manager’s number in his phone.”

This implies that even the players weren't expecting regular contact with Smith. Was this because Smith was more interested in golf than the squad? Or anything to do with his job? I'm sure you all have a view. 

I think it’s common knowledge he was more interested in the bookmakers than golf

No need as the post said villan as opposed to villain which is the nickname for AV supporters.

Not heard that, but surely that lays him open to a Toney type charge? If so, another reason to be well shot of him.

Liked betting on the horses apparently, but maybe not as common knowledge as I thought

Have you stopped to consider something?

Glenn had a brain tumour before joining us and eventually died of same.

Consider another sports personality - Sevy Ballesteros. He had same and made a career comeback in between. The medics now consider that he probably had this condition in some form or another for 15 years. His coaches during his comeback period believe that something wasn't quite right.

Football Clubs have Boards of Directors that can take an overview of a situation.

That's a really interesting bit of information. Was it known he had a brain tumour when we employed him?

Yes.....

It was while he was at West Ham United that he was initially diagnosed with a brain tumour in 2003.
