I found this interesting and well written so thought I would share, I'm sure some of you are already well aware of Matt Turvey.

Never heard of him. Is he any relation to Kevin ?

[damon loves JT]

In much the same way as you or I wouldn’t masquerade as a solicitor if we didn’t have the qualifications or experience

Oh, I don't know

I refuse to accept that someone could be this mindless.

What a joke!!

Transfer deadline day and our shower…well they coudln’t even sign a birthday card, let alone some decent players.

Lambert is a joke, just a cheap-cheap yes man to please the joke of a board.

Learner OUT!!
Falconer OUT!!
Lambart OUT!!

Has to be a windup. Has to be.

The H&V letters pages, of course, never have comments like this.

But we all know that they're written by your version of Tyler Durden.......

Very well thought-out article, and one which chimes with my own feelings on Lambert's tenure. Yesterday proved how much he could improve our current players in pretty much the space of a week, so how much he can do so with signings is an exciting prospect - particularly given the performances of Vlaar, El Ahmadi and Lowton, who I thought had a particularly good game yesterday.

[Risso]

Well, I think Concrete Ron and KEA have been our two best players to date, so Lambert can obviously spot a good 'un.  Hopefully the signings from the lower leagues will emulate these, and we'll be OK.

[JJ-AV]

KEA is a fine player.

At 2.5m (assuming that price is correct), it could be one of our best signings in years.

Never knew we had a falconer on the staff!  We should get him to walk out at Villa Park with a bird of prey perched on his wrist!

"Gee the harris hawk is Aston Villa’s newest recruit and the team’s feathered friend is keeping the pitch in tip-top condition after magpies were spotted swooping on the pristine grass surface and digging holes in the hallowed turf."

Bloody Newcastle fans.  Pain in the arse.
