Having Barry back?

[mattjpa]

never go back....

itd be like sex with the ex. Great in principle till you realise shes still fat, a bit older and youre never gonna get to where you want to be with her

there is one massive problem with Barry coming back.  He signed a 4 year contract on massive money, there is no way we'll pay his current wages and if you think for a second he'll accept a massive pay cut you are living in cloud cuckoo land.

Reading this thread, it appears a lot have voted with emotion instead of rationally.

To put it another way, if he'd never played for Villa, would you take him?

Would he still be considered old and slow at the age of 29 or would he be seen as a canny addition to the squad?

Well we are football fans.

Rationally, yes he would be a better bet than Petrov. But emotinally, he can get tae fuck. Wanting to go is one thing but dragging the name of the club through the gutter press is going totally over the line of no return. Wanker.

It would appear there are people willing to drive him to his next club. Nice thread title too.
