He'll have to be registered by 12pm on Friday IIRC.

It would be good to at least have him available on Sunday, as it'll be a way better option than Osbourne on the bench.

Is there an 'out of contract' list of players anywhere?
we can then disect it and see if there would be anyone else worth having.

30 year-old Mathieu Berson is currently out of contract, I believe.

I thought he'd passed his medical yesterday but no personal terms have been agreed.

The Villa team is getting like one of my Football Manager teams, loads of young academy players and a couple of 37 year olds on free transfers.

sorry if previously mentioned, but doesn't Pires have a problem against us? I seem to remember him being angry with us a some point or another.

Don't remember he holds any grudges against us...

but I do remember he has bust-up with O'Leary when he was managing Leeds (if you want a certain minor % Villa related answer :))

I remember DOL chasing him for a couple of years, signed him. Played him v Chelsea and he looked decent. Then he fucked him off.

Wasn't he accusing us of racially abusing him at Villa Park one year?

I think that was when Henry scored that quick free kick and the song 'Stand up, if you hate the french' went around VP.

Correct. I remember watching everyone standing up as I was sitting down.
