Course he can
AVFCOfficial Aston Villa FC Brian Doogan, our head of media, has spoken to Stewart Downing and he can confirm the picture circulating the internet is a FAKE.
I know what you mean, When he was with us he was in and out of court every other week.
this is getting a bit tedious really isnt it
If true that's the greatest fake photoshop ever. Simple enough to ask the lad who took the pic
It is fake though. I've even managed to find the orginal:
What even the fact that there are four hands holding the scarf?
Seriously people, look at it more closely: The far right hand side - either he has weird hands or somebody has botched a photoshop.
Nah, villatalk is hilarious at the minute, ranging from outright denial of the image, conclusive evidence its a fake, conclusive evidence its real, hatred of Liverpool, Hatred of Downing and one lone voice of reason pointing out that Villa are a selling club.
If you can't trust Kenny, you need to find another club, seriously.
I think the photo is genuine in so far as its downing and carroll posing with a scarf or banner of some sort. The thing that looks a bit dubious to me is the scarf itself. The lighting at the end where the woman and downing are holding it doesn't seem quite right. There's lots of light shining on them from the top right corner and you can see it clearly on their fingers but none of that light is shining on the scarf itself. It could just be the angle they are holding that end of the scarf but I would've thought there would be more light and shadow contrast on scarf given the intensity of the light IMO.
Rafa made it so that you didn't give a shit which fucking ball emerged from Platini's jar.
Well when you put it like that chief, winding up the Brummies is always a scream.And I would say it was a case of telling Stuarty boy to get in the photo or else
Behave you soft twat, 6 months he's been here and hasn't stepped out of line once. But he's been caught laughing in photo in a bar, on his holidays to boot... so naturally he must be out of control and leathered. No need to desperatly push the stereotype to give the gossip mongerers something to get their claws into.
The Wood Preservation Society. Hopefully that shed's the equivalent of Fritzel's cellar.
I think you're the one who needs to look a bit more closely fella.
There is a hand with four fingers (Downing's), then more fingers above it. It's not the woman's hand because that's holding the top of the scarf above Downing's shoulder. It's not Carroll's because his hand is on the woman's shoulder. So whose fingers are they?
Think about it realistically, what Photoshop wiz would intentionally create a photograph of Andy Carroll AND Stewart Downing? Stewart Downing for crying out loud. Villa's PR team have been working overtime the past few weeks. They probably all know he's off and this is simply damage limitation. And if he isn't in our plans then surely Downing would told his bosses he was drunk at the time and Villa probably would have fined him by now. I wouldn't be surprised if they (Villa) are linked with all sorts in the next few days to appease their fanbase.
There are 4 fucking fingers, for fucks sake read the thread back a few pages, or just look up?
THOSE AREN'T FINGERS. THOSE ARE SCARF TASSELLS.
its fake ffs....
