What they Said

Brighton & Hove Albion.png

"The players really fought for Tony [Barton] out there against Spurs and he deserves to given the chance [as permanent manager].

โ€œI know footballers should give everything for any manager, but it must have been obvious in recent weeks that not everyone at Aston Villa was giving their all for Ron Saunders.

โ€œPersonally, professional pride would not allow me to give anything less than 100% to any manager.

"But it is not for me condemn others and I am just glad everyone has started pulling again for the club, and for Tony Barton, because he is such nice man.โ€
