You know what pisses me off Greg, you wing about our league position and signing but you spend no money supporting your club which could be used to help improve it.

Maybe get you arse off the internet , down to B6 and spend a £10 at valencia game and give MON the funds to buy Ronaldo!!!

According to SSN a fee has been agreed from Fulham for Sidwell


I did say we'd have made a signing today.

Bet he turns out to be top class for them though and we're all asking why we sold them.

Should I open the Farewell Sidwell thread?

That's what you get when you let a sensible manager leave your club.


That did make me chuckle.

Indeed but if that punchable, hopeless oaf McGeady is part of the deal lets not. I'd ask for Andreas Hinkel + £2million if they want Hesk and Martin is determined to be rid of Luke Young.

Hinkel is basically a German Luke Young with a slightly better career.

EDIT: However, if what John M said on another thread is true about contracts we might be better served if Hesk was sold to another Premiership club who can pay more in wages. Stoke were interested lets hit them up.

I'd be happy to let heskey go for nothing just as long as I never see him in a villa shirt again!

I don't know if it's true in all cases, but I understand it's how most transfers work.  Weren't Leeds (poor example for a 'happy clapper' like me to use I know) reported to still be paying wages to a lot of their players long after they left?

And can you stop suggesting transfer targets in here - it's getting in the way of all the rowing!

Not keen on McGeady but Keane would do a job for us ...........mainly at Villa Park when the opposition play 10 behind the ball

I share others frustration with our manager's perceived lack of activity in the transfer window

Is there any truth in the 'sell before we can buy' theory ?

McGeady will be no better than Downing.

Keane for £8m maximum.

Fulham buying Sidwell yet they've not got a manager and were originally linked with him when Woy was still there. Strange.

According to the Express and Star 'the club's transfer kitty was given a record-breaking boost yeterday'.  Anybody know what that is about?
