Gabby Agbonlahor showed impressive resilience in the aftermath of Aston Villa's relegation last Sunday. He bounced back quickly. Don't let the fact that you're going down get you down.
The Sun brought us pictures of Gabby - or as they, showing scant interest in protecting him from an angry mob, described him, 'the 60,000-a-week striker' - enjoying a night on the razz and the laughing gas with a couple of female friends and another male pal in the Mayfair Hotel in London.
The club completed an investigation into Agbonlahor's behaviour in rapid fire time and have decided to leave the matter go.

Opta Paddy Power compiled his stats for the year. There's little dispute that he scored one goal this season and that he was suspended by the club twice. The National Association of Kebabs presumably furnished them with the stats on his Doner-scoffing ways.
The contention that he gives zero fucks rests largely on both anecdotal and photographic evidence.

We don't want to elevate the importance of twitter user of Anthony-Villa82 (@AntEnglish), but it's important that we know these views are out there.
A proud Villa fan and a proud Englishman, he lashed out at Paddy Power, saying that, whatever Gabby's faults, 'he would still make you're (sic) shit Irish team'.
@paddypower He would still get in you're shit Ireland team

Of course, Paddy Power presumably has a large UK wing, which we had always assumed was responsible for their more banterific tweets.
