So Who Will Villa Sign Pt 2.

we are linked with nigel de jong, luis fabiano and reo-coker...i'd be happy with any of those...and apparently we are not going to sign sneijder...oh well that was a nice rumour

Sorry naismith is how you spell it.oh and maybe Jagielka.

who is Ryan Higgs???? we have been linked with a 4 million pound swoop for him!

Gravesen possibly, but Jiri spent time on-loan with Birmingham, so that could put a stop to that. Gravesen's not a bad shout, though, but I can see him Newcastle in the next few weeks. Interesting to see what he goes for, should be a decent amount.

Come off it. No club with any ambition would even consider signing Bobo at this stage. He'd go to Brimingham, Sunderland or WBA/Derby, too. And he should be grateful for it!

ROBBIE KEANE SIGNS NEW 5 YEAR CONTRACT!!Told you he wasnt coming to Villa.(Neil Lennon & Emile Heskey just been sighted in villa"s car park!)He he he........

Celtic are planning on bidding £10million for Shunsuke Nakamura, to be fair. Though that's about far more than football.

Wasn't to impressed with Mcshane. Mears of Derby looked good with 2 immense tackles in the right back position. He's a Wham plater though isn't he? Koumas didn't look too bad.

Have not seen much of Koumas but looked their best palyer. McShane on that performance err no thanks. Mind you I have seen Leacock at Derby three times this season and he has looked absolute pants, but today he looked very decent... so maybe a little unfair on McShane, but surely there are many better out there.

Totally off-topic, but seeing as there are no transfer rumours, what do Celtic fans think of Strachan compared to O'Neill? I know many at Parkhead are disillusioned with GS at the moment, but i've also heard alot of harsh words about O'Neill from Celtic fans in the last few months....in your opinion hoops fans who is better?

larsson*7*cfc. dictionary says, mr talksbollox

Surprising you say that Larsson, his record at Celtic was P282, W213, L40, D29. and he didn't draw too many at Leicester City either. We did play long ball tactics last year when we didn't have players at our disposal i,e, the mid season blip, but on the good runs that we had at the beginning and end of the season we were playing good entertaining football, and would have lost alot of the games that we actually drew.

tyrone mears is poor. if he was premier league quality he would be in the west ham side

Where does it all end? Celtic have the best champions league home record in all of europe. Only lost once in over 28 home european games in last 8 years. Scalps include mufc, barcelona, juventus, liverpool, valencia and list goes on. Villa have achieved nothing at all ! Apart from being bought by one of umpteen yanks buying their way into english football to make a quick buck then sell your ground to tesco. Celtic fans would never alow this to happen to their team as the importance of the club means too much to us & fans all over the world. I do hope MON helps get your team a good league cup run sometime soon, u villa fans deserve it. :)

Money.

Wihout really getting into this, the above poster referred to European games, so that includes the UEFA CUp. MON did well in the UEFA Cup but, even with a team that cost about 10 times or so more than WGS's team, failed to reach the CL last-16. Nearly bled the club to death through wages, though...!

He's 27, yes. He'll probably go to a third club, newly-promoted Premiership, perhaps. He does seem a bit of a hassle, and having just seen Neil Lennon leave, we could do with some calmer figures up here for a while at least...!

Well if we also got £20 million for finishing 11th in a league think how much better we would be. We would def be challenging a lot better than villa thats for sure.

ForeverHoop - surely your chariman sanctioned the players contracts, not MON? Its like O'Dreary at Leeds, he cant be blamed for whats happened to Leeds financially, it was after all Ridsdales job as Chairman to keep control of the finances. I can never understand how you all still worshipped MON until he signed for Villa, at which point he suddenly became the worse manager in your history????

i would rather support a team that competes in a league, otherwise it would seem slightly empty and plastic.

So anyone got anthing on luis fabiano?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lu%C3%ADs_Fabiano There you go Villan80, hope this helps.

Gera? Surely he cant stay at the baggies another season? He stood out last time he was in the premiership. He lives right next door and would be available pretty cheap. He's just the sort of player we need and is an improvement on hendrie, djemba, mcann etc

does anyone know when the new villa shirt is going to be unveiled?

mackaavfc, in a word NO

sooooo bored with bull ***** rumours, cant wait until friday when the window opens, hopefully we will start to hear a few concrete things. latest i have seen is Vladamir Bystrov - a spartak moscow right winger. quite highley rated by all accounts.

mackaavfc - whether Randy Lerner is a billionaire or not in pound sterling is very, very marginal depending on exhange rates, according to a number of reports! Not that it makes any difference, but on a quiet day, why not!?!

They offerd about 4mill and utd say he is worth more.He aint worth more than 5 so they are clearly trying to bid him off against other inerested parties.Reckon we could outbid Everton but they have offered a fair reflection of the players worth.Just cause we have cash shouldnt mean clubs should hold us to ransom.Interested in the Kewell link i think mon could bring back his abillity.

I'd take Jagielka for 4 Mill, good squad player

i really think if we are gonna progress we need that one star player. sneijder could be it. or if we are gonna go big get manuel fernandes he is real class and will be at a top european side sooner or later. 12mill and he is ours for sure. then we can build some players around dat lik reo-coker and bystrov or kewwell (pretty ***** tho) and players like gaz baz and gabby will play better round em. my plan:) U GET ME! :list: sneijder fernandes reo-coker luke young defoe/bellamy/any othe gd quick goal poacher

Mackaavfc i hope you just didnt say kewell!?......Gera would be a good squad player and is miles better than lee (i only scored 3 goals in the championship in 30 games) hendrie, im standing by my decision :-)

Son of Cher, Kewell has been linked, I wasn't proposing we target him. Gera is pap, if we sell Davis to Fulham for £2.4m and then sign Gera, i will be seriously worried. We will have to agree to disagree on this one mucker.

New Kit?

Ok sorry guys, sorry no need to argue amoungst ourselves. Theres no point going for koumas and mcshane either then.

is it me, or are villa always predictable in the transfer window. everyone that we're rumoured to go in for we do, we never seem to look for players from outside the prem. i just hope that we don't go in for bellamy at 12 mill, and players like kewell and gera that wont get us knowhere, instead players like de jong from hamburg can put us onto that next level

i actually quite like the idea of kewell coming . I remember the days when he was at leeds , a real class act . i am not sure of his age though , 30ish? Peak of career if free from injury . I wouldn't mind having a go on his missus as well !

He is only 28 ! Get him now MON ! Wages could be an issue though ! 60k per week at Liverpool ! A bit pricey !

Gabby unfortunately mate I can't see us getting Saviola, he stated in January that we were'nt big enough for him. Id be over the moon with Sneijder and very content with both Bellamy and Kewell. Ive said before that Bellamy and big John Carew would scare the hell out of most prem defenses next year. Kewell would make an excellent addition to the squad.

Kewell would be good if he could stay fit. But i hope we dont just go for under 21 year olds and scottish players or worst of all, players from teams in the championship, unless it was david nugent. some 24-26 year olds who are reasonably experienced would be good and with the whole new tv deal thing happening plus the backing from randy we can spend a fair bit. Reo coker should be a shoe-in, but ill be *****ed off if i see him sign for portsmouth or some ****.

who told you that?

thtas it ... i no longer support england... wat a joke stuart pearce hasn't included agbonlahor or l.moore. i should b pleased really though as they'll get rest but im sure agbonlahor was the best youngster in the prem.

I'd rather have Bent, he's big enough to replace Carew when injured and fast enough to be the striker alongside him. Excellent player and well worth any figure touted for Bellend. Not sure about Koumas, what if - just what if he does a Cahill (Everton) and is amazing in a better Premiership team? We would all be gutted, might just be worth a punt....

i didnt think pearce was that stupid, but upon reflection didnt he use a toy horse to help man citeh win???

we should sign the toy horse. can play in any position :P

No sorry made that up.But would have him back.

looks like the scum are trying to make an impression on the prem by trying to sign stuart parnaby. haha there S**T!

Barton class player, and with MON's man management skills not the problem some envisage, he could be our Roy keane! now that would be sweet, and he could show is arse to the blue noses as many times as he likes, and all this for 5.5mill compared to 12mill for that welsh tw4t, its the blue cross sale

Just wait and see

son of cher dont forget bayern didnt get into champions league with their league standing dont think this year,would be a great signing have to agree though unlikely.surely we will here something official in next week or two who is going to be our first signing of summer as to me,randy and martin will not be messing around and will be going after are major targets quite swiftly i would of thought,have faith. UTV

transfer window opens at midnight, happy days.

Linked with Robinson fromWest Brom as cover for Bouma.Ok if its cheap.We have to face facts guys we need to build a squad capable of getting us into Europe so depth is a must.May be we only sign one major player and a handful of quality backup players.

Robinson is a terrible player. No way is that an acceptable signing. I'd prefer to have kept Samual!

no to bellend £12mil bouble what they paid and he was rubbish this year, one good game it was against barca and it took an episode with golf club to make him want to play. maybe if he gets in a fight before every game he will get 40 goals next season and if we buy barton aswell he more than likely will. they could put a ufc cage at the training ground and let tham clowns go at it while the rest of the team train

darren bent would come for the money liverpool want for bellend, reo coker for £7mil, sneijder for £10mil, lahm for£10mil, mcshane for £2mil maybe? and boruc or gordon not sure how much they would cost about £5-6mil? too much to ask for? i just hope we buy someone soon. UTV!

Villa close to signing Reo-Coker From todays Guardian: Aston Villa have emerged as favourites to sign Nigel Reo-Coker and are expected to agree a deal worth about £8m with West Ham United for the England Under-21 captain next week. Reo-Coker has submitted a transfer request at West Ham and, although he has been strongly linked with a move to Tottenham Hotspur, it is understood Villa are close to winning the race for his signature. Martin O'Neill returns from holiday today keen to complete the deal, which would take his spending since arriving at the club last summer beyond £20m. The Villa manager is set to embark on a major rebuilding programme before the new season and, with midfield a key area to strengthen, has earmarked Reo-Coker as the first piece of the jigsaw. It is believed that the 23-year-old is excited by the prospect of playing under O'Neill. Villa's financial strength in the transfer market and Scott Parker's anticipated arrival at West Ham should ensure that the deal goes through smoothly. Parker was last night on the verge of completing a £7m switch from Newcastle to West Ham to be reunited with his former manager at Charlton, Alan Curbishley, who regards the 26-year-old as the ideal replacement for Reo-Coker. Reo-Coker endured a difficult last season at West Ham and was booed by some fans only months after coming within minutes of lifting the FA Cup. His form suffered amid reports that he was unhappy after failing to secure a move to Arsenal last August but he remained an almost automatic choice and played a key part in helping the club stay in the Premiership. With Arsenal's interest cooling, Villa's bright ambitions under O'Neill have proved attractive to Reo-Coker. His capture would represent a major coup for Villa and for O'Neill, who has already lured John Carew and spent £16m on Ashley Young and Stilian Petrov. The manager is keen to buy another striker and is interested in Craig Bellamy but Liverpool would have to drop their £12m asking price for the Wales international.

think i seen people comparing coker to davis.2 different types of midfielder,reo coker is more of a holding player(which we have needed for years) and davis is a player who likes to get forward and beat people.even if we get coker i would still keep stevie d although more and more papers picking up on this 5 mill sale sign on his head,1st bad move that would be from martin i reckon. UTV

I agree, its got to be Barton, let Martin get to work on him, fantastic for the future, still funny to see the yids and the blue noses in the suggested poll (18%) would be disgusted by his arrival, at 5mill its got to be worth the risk, just imagine, barry, barton, reo-corker, in midfield, not much getting thru that line, he's got fire in his belly, something we need lots of at the villa, sadly thats been lacking in the last few seasons, I for one would love to see him in a villa shirt.

Just read on villa board we are very close to signing brazilian striker Frederico Chaves Guedes from Lyon for 9 million. He has fallen out with Lyon and with Houllier going could there be truth to it? Also Carew would be pivotal in this deal surely??????

At this rate our team next year will be GK-Gordon LB-Lahm CB-Davies CB-Jagielka RB-Young LM-Sneijder CM-Barton CM-Reo-Coker RM-Koumas ST-Bellamy ST-Guedes! Nice team but slightly unrealistic dont you think!?!

I can hear the samba beat already, oooooooo-adeiiiii-ovee oyyyoyyyoyyy

miss aston, yeah slightly unrealistic leaving laursen, olof, petrov, bouma and carew out. also slightly unrealistic playing Scniejder on the left.

meanin was it reliable?!

Dudes, this is a summary of Alfonso Alves of Herenveen on Wikipedia.org: Afonso Alves also known as Alfonso Alves (born 30 January 1981) is a Brazilian footballer who currently plays for Heerenveen in the Dutch Eredivisie. Alves wears the number 12 shirt for Heerenveen and has scored 34 goals in 31 games in the Eredivisie in 2006/07, becoming the league's top scorer. Alves is subsequently attracting a great deal of attention. His combination of pace, movement and lethal finishing has caused a number of opponents problems this year and he has notched up an astonishing five hattricks. Afonso Alves began his career with Atletico Mineiro in Brazil but left South America at the age of 21. He was snapped up by Swedish outfit Orgryte IS and spent two years with the club before moving to Malmo FF for another two years. During his four years and 52 games in Sweden Afonso Alves scored an incredible 94 goals in 52 games. This record prompted Heerenveen to splash out a club record fee for the Brazilian (reported to be 4.5 million euros). As a result of breaking the club's record for a transfer fee, they are now very reluctant to let their star go depsite the reported interest from a number of English clubs, thought to be Manchester United, Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester City. Combining Alves' scoring record in Sweden with his recent burst in Holland, the free kick specialist's goal tally since 2002 is 129 goals in 83 games. Afonso Alves' name is often mispelt Alfonso Alves. Watched him on Youtube.com also, mighty good!

You mean 'Spit the dog'?

According to Newsnow, Cokers agent has said if Newcastle called he'd be there like a shot. Whilst the rumours are entertaining I must admit to a degree of frustration that when my hopes are raised somebody else appears to be the favourite. I think I'll have to ignore the rumour pages and watch sky as only solid rumours and done deals are reported. UPV :-(

Would rather we try buy kevin nolan than spend money on Joey barton think flamini from the arse would get in to our squad too

The most worrying things I have seen are that we are interested in Paul Robinson (the guy is a serial womaniser, only has 1 leg and I only saw him today tied and bound after being kidknapped by Dylan Timmins!!). surely can't be true!!!!! Also, BBC, Sky Sports and Evening Mail all said we were interested in Stuart Parnaby!!! I hope that is journalistic rubbish as we need far better signings than him!!

parnaby went to the scum haha. damn whats that fred rumour? he's one of the best possible targets

anymore links today? i was thinkin earlierabout a team that push us on. This is wht ive come up with... Gordan, Bouma, Mellberg, Laursen, Jagielka, Young, Gardner, Reo-Coker, Barry, arew, Agbonlahor. I think this team has a good mixtue of youth and experience. UTV

Do you think okey kokey demands that the supporters idolise him. A few got on his back about poor performances and all of a sudden he cant handle it.We all know the toon really show their players the best support is that why he would go to them before us? Keano hated a lot of the manure fans and didnt give a toss about them.Perhaps that ssays something about okey kokeys character?

gabby16 your team is unrealistc

sum crap rumous though aren't they ok barton reo coker young boruc but fred n coloccini what muppet made them up. and why leave gabby on the bench

I think Coker would come to you, from what i've heard he has had enough of the way the fans treat him

still feels like Dougs in charge, no signings, only talk of outgoing players, noises coming from villa park that season ticket sales are going thru the roof! oh and nearly forgot, the statement that we will be very excited by the signings that are coming,( keane, defoe, west brom, wolves players) seems like the same record being played, HAS HE REALLY LEFT! doesn't sound like it to me.

Its always hard to get one in the Holte!, dosn't mean they're flying of the press, and paper talk is b4llocks most of the time, its players we want not rumours, I don't know how old you are CPAVFC but I'm 44 and have been fed this cr4p long enough, hopefully I'm wrong, but you can't blame me for worrying

im 15. but i think im being more mature and talking more sense than you eltoro. One week has only passed, look at the time when we bought carew and young. We will get quality players in, it's just a matter of time.

Just read on SSN that Newcastle will sign Barton tomorrow. Not good.

Can`t agree,he would have been great for us but one that got away. ( again )

Book Mark - for tomorrow

And as if by magic Barton signs for Newcastle, another one bites the dust, enough said

Hopefull Reo-Coker becomes ours now. Perhaps if we get a player like him more can follow. The rght back posistion is bothering me as i think jagielka is over priced but young is fairly average. Who else is there for the right back spot?

Like i havn't heard that before. So orginal. i dont see what there is too get really. Your moaning about something that does't have to be moaned about. I think it's funny you have nothing better to do.

Barton isn't that good, I'd prefer Davis every time instead of having that low life wear the colours of claret and blue. As has been said before, if we'd done half what he's been up to, we'd be fired on the spot. Parker is being signed by a manager who knows him well, but quite a risk for a pie eating player, who seems to like going roung kicking other players.

hehe thats a hilarious argument. that could be your kid's mate eltoro.

reo coker is way better than barton and hopefully that rumour comes true soon. MON is back from hols this week so lets give him a little time to get the ball rolling, he promised us signings and i for one beleive he will deliver. as long as one signing isn't that muppet bellemy. eltoro seems to me you would want to quit living in the past and look to the future. its people like you with negitive attitudes that aren't needed. so stop fighting with a child and support the club and the manager not bitch like a little bitch.

I know RIC112, he's a cheeky little sod, i'm already wound up with the lack of activity,and i'm getting it in the neck from a 15 yr old, still he keeps me on my toes, keep up the good work CPAVFC

Well said eltoro.

thanks chris the villan

I noticed Sunderland are after the West Brom player we're in for.

4 days into the transfer window and 2.5 months to go and all you lot can do is moan about lack of activity. Clubs are getting rid of deadwood that have served a purpose. I'm sure if MON wants a player we'll be going for it, but's it's not just about what MON wants it's also what the player wants and if they don't want to join the Villa then why should we bend over backwards to sign them?

exactly. why should we care if a few players have transferred and we have no news? so long to go, plenty of players to choose from. besides that i'd like to see some players come from the continent instead of from west brom or celtic. who starts some of these rumours? - koumas is a liar, i don't believe we are in for him. paul robinson??? haha whatever

ok then

I will take back my comments only because Tarzan seems to be the only decent fan on this thing.

I can remember the Baros and Beattie frustration - believe me, that was far worse (desperate)!

i say you both should shut up argueing, Im 15 too didnt know there was other 15 year olds on here, never the less villa i hope will sign 7 good to star quality players and we deffinetly need a right winger or push petrov out there because i dont think young is ready, striker RB GK and a hard man in the middle and only get rid of players out of contract or give them pay as you play contracts and sell the likes of DJ-DJ nd ~S.Taylor/Sorensen and one or too more that are not good enough or will not be happy to play in the reserves or second fiddle to our starting team my ideal team would be Gordan/Taylor(Sorensen) Young(average 2 seasons then get a better one)/Hughes Mellberg/Cahill Davies/Laursen/Ridge Bouma/Portugese U21 (i forget his name) Milner/Young Petrov/Davis Reo-Coker/Gardener Barry./Maloney Carew Bent Gabby Moore Top 6 team i think UTV!!!

paddy I do agree I don't want bellamy at the villa either, and Bent is class, so I shall try to be a good boy and relax, but for the love of god Villa just sign someone please! and can't take much more from the yids.

Read Deano's post on the other thread - it applies some logic to all this madness. We do need a goalie.

rk1888 ambition i hear you say are you having a laugh,does chris killen ring any bells 2 you?i will remind you if you cant remember,he is that top class centre forward you have just signed of hibs under the noses of them other giants cardiff and a host of championship clubs!lol. on the other hand we will wait and see who we sign this summer but be clear they will be a hell of alot better than whoever you sign,mostly because we will be spending 30 million pounds upwards on top class players(which celtic do not have by the way)to go along with players of the same quality in our side already who would ***** all over your *****ty league(eg.barry,carew,laursen,young,agbonlahor,petrov,maloney and mellberg etc).so dont come on here talking bollox about villas lack of ambition and concentrate on your own club's lack of it,seriously like i would.personally i would only have boruc out of your side and thats being honest and on the other hand not even counting the players i have mentioned above these are some of our players who cant get a regular game for us who would all walk onto the celtic side like davis,moore,cahill,hughes and ridgewell. so wind your own neck in before you come on here spouting your blinkered bitter bollox as per usual. UTV

sibierski just signed foe wigan another one we missed out on LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wigan must be the new ewcastle sign a few crap layers then buy a exelent player whatch now they buy someone like Bent and that bramble will be class for them btw this is a joke.! i really want bent to come to us we should make an offer they cant refuse and pay him about £57,000 a week (isnt carew earning that??) Bent and a fully fit carew unstopable spesh from young/milner and barry/maloney suppling the balls and crosses!

bokkmark 3 - c u tomorrow

nail. head. well said BV.

Yes,indeed rk1888 is a typical plastic !! Wonder if he could give us his seat number ? I would rather stick dog poo in my eyes than have to watch the SPL as it is total Mickey Mouse,top hole BV.

Is MO'N still on holidays?

back page evening mail say we are in for scneijder

Nathan Delfouneso has signed.

Bigger than Mark Kinnsella?

Bellamy has loyalty clauses in his contract (1 year etc.) so don't expect any action until July 1st unless we have other options up front, but several sources have said it's a done deal. Also it's well known MON has been in talker with Coker BUT that deal can't be concluded until after the U21's tournament, unless we have bigger fish to fry i.e. Sneijder!

It's good to have options I suppose!

breaking news on ssn,villa make 7 mill bid for reo coker! think we all knew that anyway!

Tarzan, I swear. It was just annouched. It was only an enquiry though.

I dont mind Celtic players as they all have experance in the champions league near enough all of our young squad dont have and they aint the worst players in the world and would improve our squad sign boruc Mcgready and Naka and then we should go else were we might aswell use our links while we have got them im not soo sure about Naka though i heard on the Celtic site his 29 soo wouldnt have time to adapt to the premiership but our global shirt sales and more people would support and we all know were the money comes from these days Japan oh and randy lerners pocket! hehe

eltoro glad to see we agree on the muppet. reo coker for £7mil not bad, naka is good worth a look and just the start hopefully. SNEIJDER PLEASE AND NO TO BELLEMY can you start that as an article?

haha true, he has a neck like gladstone small. what happened to the de jong rumour? im guessing that was utter tripe from tribal football yet again. lets hope not.

Correction Young is destroying these minnows.Makes me proud to be a villa man.

Young was brilliant for the last few away games of the season. He a brilliant attitude and two great feet.

Did you see Ash and Coker frolicking together at the end?

yes did gaz,think they are having a not so secret affair them 2! reo be a quality signing in my view. but young was absolutely out of this world,he played like a brazilian in that 2nd half! if anybody missed that,i recommend strongly to view 2day when it is repeated on ss.UTV

It was 'The Ashley Young Show'..... it was interesting to see him having the craic with Reo towards the end aswell !!!!!!!!!!!!

I cant wait to hear Villa errupt into a chourus of.....'''NIGEL RE-COKER, NIGEL REO-COKER, LALA LA LAAAAA, LALA LA LAAAAAAA''!!!!! Or......... ''His name is Reo and he dances on the sand Just like that river twists across a dusty land. And when he shines he really shows you all he can. Oh Reo Reo dance across the Reo Grande His name is Reo he don't need to understand I might find him if I'm looking like I can Oh Reo Reo hear them shout across the land'' !!!!!!!!!!!!

ASHLEY YOUNG WAS AMAZING! never seen him play that well. now we know why we paid that and how gd did i feel that he was a villa player! yes mate! sneijder and coker wid young and barry all we ned now is to make that deeeefense water tight and maybe 1 goalscoring machineUTV!

If snyd and bellend along wit okey cokey come in thats a healthy investmant of about 23/25mill we still need a bit of depth and so will stick my neck out and say i would be happy wit bringing in Robinson/Mcshane/young.No new rumors from me but then again i just pluck them out my ass anyway!

What about a goalie then? There's definitely one on MON's list and we definitely need one. Craig Gordon would be my choice now Foster is crocked.

Actually through newsnow, the independant says that ajax want 15 million euros for sneijder wich refers to £10.2 million. i say thats a bargain. Hows maloney and Gordan doing for scotland?

maloney just scored a wonderful free kick cp mate,he is playing well. ssn linking us with a porto centre back,could be interesting as i have defo seen that link somewhere else in last fortnight which i cannot remember at mo. UTV

what a signing sneijder would be..! On another subject is there any news on the renaming of the witton road stand and any of the others, I remember Mr Lerner saying a few months back that he may look at sponsoring each stand (Nike stand) etc...would give us even more financial power to compete with the top 4

bookmark -

Hitzlehammer scored for Germany...... how annoying and short-sighted was DOL to let him go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The guy's on fire.

If we could sign one striker right about now, i'd fly back from Singapore and drive the fella to VP myself....Dean Ashton....nasty injury he had, but if he picks up where he left off I can see WHam making a massive improvement next season....and I would far prefer it was us watching him bang them in Shearer-style...if WHam end up signing Defoe or A.Johnson then why not make a move??

Yeah, Tottenham and Portsmouth are the ones that steal our links.

Ferrrkk off. Only kidding. I want Reo, Nakamura, Bent, Curtis Davies and i think MON can get them all.

ONE ARRON LEMON, I wouldn't want any one at the villa who has been at spurs! if hes not good enough for u then he's certianly not good enough for us! HIGHH FIVEE you are a retard, yes!

I am a retard yes! lmao highh fivee

agreed! get the tshirts printed

Any update on NRC?

Well?

Whats goin on with okey cokey?Im stratin to get the feelin that this aint gonna happen.

To be fair, the reason it feels like a saga is that the club won't comment on any possible transfer moves (real ones). As it gives us fans false hope. We should think about other targets such as a RB & goalie.

My buddy is a spud, and is quite worried about Man U's crusade in the media in trying to unsettle Berbatov, he was going to send his season ticket back if you flogged him. Have you heard anything about NRC down the smoke?

So then chaps,who is Sneijder going to choose then hey...??Mediocre,no europe,long ball merchants Villa or top 4 chasing,european football,exponents of the beautiful game Spurs.........??He he he.........................

Mmmmm - chalky, wonder how much football you actually watch? Or do you just like talking about it so people think you are a real man..... So then chaps, which manager is Sneijder going to choose then hey... the jolly, inept Pie Eater or the Demi God with football coursing through his veins?

bookmark. Why? I don't know really - maybe I'm going mad

BLUEDOSE, don't have a go at CHALKY76, its taken us a while to warm to OAL, he used to come on here and slag us of, so don't get *****ty with other villans, it's taken a while to get back on track with him. be warned, or its you that will become unpopular!

Okey Cokey goes to the euro champs 2moro as far as i know.He'll play aq blinder,his value will go up 3-4 mil and more teams will be in for him.Just watch.

linked with mertesacker! haha but ive learned you see...that could well mean **** all. but anyone who knows who he is would surely be excited too.

Anyone thats been getting sh4t over on the celtic site, I've just posted this responce to there constant bullsh4t about the villa and how they sh4t all over English clubs in th CL. it reads as "Right lets get this sorted once and for all, you have won 4 times against English clubs and lost 3 times against English clubs over 2 legs, hardly f4cking them over, as you put it, and to make things worse, if your going off games played, or competition's entered, you're second to RANGERS, but before u say they haven't won anything, u have won no more than the VILLA, so f4ckin leave it eh!" thought you might be interested. GO ON THE VILLA

all i have to say is very good and funny eltoro and oal strangely im starting to like you,you do talk plenty of sense when you arn't winding us up mate i will give you that though i think you really do have villa veins that you dont want to admit! lol. UTV

And another point, no hard feelings should Spurs or Villa get him yeah!!!

Good honest point OAL. It will be interesting.

Gavin McCann supposedly will sign for Bolton today for 2 million squid. A good bit of business IMO.

We may still be able to get Okey Cokey if wham stop p1ss1n about does bolton take mccann signal the loss of one of their regular ctr mid players Kev Nolan anyone?Prob following big sam.Jageilka is ment to have a release clause of 4 mill think he would be worth a try papers reckon everton are his fav but who knows?

one mil + add ons that could reach to 2 mil. yeah i thought he did a good job. solid and reliable, but never likely to stand out as man of the match. with all these players leaving, o'neill is blatantly gonna bring in A LOT of new players, despite saying there would be no clearout. im quite happy if he removes the deadwood so long as players like davis and moore go nowhere.

With McCann sold to Bolton i find it very strange that WHU are saying that no official bid has been put in for NRC. With NRC now in Holland for the U21 championships it is going to be harder to get him signed and we may well have to wait until we get knocked out or it has finished which if he has a decent tournament will push the price up and allow other teams to bid..! It may well be that WHU wanted this to happen by saying no bid has been put in or MON is going all out for Sneijder.
