IF all goes to plan and we are promoted this coming season, it will be China for pre season next Summer

And if it doesn't either trips to the likes of Dagenham and Redbridge or the gallows - China has the highest death row numbers in the world.

I'd like to us play Fleetwood (as I would be able to blag free tickets).

I would imagine we will be playing a couple of games in China and Hong Kong this summer, as Chairman Xia kick starts our journey to Chinese football domination.

Someone said to me earlier that were not going on tour?

Can anyone confirm or deny?

Even if it is true right now I bet that changes if this takeover is confirmed. I can see us playing in China sometime in July.

Went up there in August for Fleetwood - Colchester (didn't go FOR that reason) and the head steward is a Villa fan. Came over to me as I was wearing a Villa top and was chatting about his time travelling all over the country watching Villa and being at highbury in 81 and Rotterdam in 82.

They're holding back the announcement of Messi making his Villa debut** in a prestige friendly against his old club

(**match to be played at Walsall as Villa Park is frantically converted into a 60,000 seat stadium)

I'd rather we played in China if and when we are back in the top flight. We won't boost the branch much as some bunch of jobbing losers from a league that doesn't exist as far as most people in Asia are concerned.

Afraid so. Still, I prefer him to his nephew Tim.
