Bannan's new contract

[Simon Ward]

A star in the making?

[garyshawsknee]

Good news,hope he can get a good run in the team as he looks class.

[villasjf]

he had his driving test a week or so ago, wonder if he passed it. Good luck to him.

[TheSandman]

I thought he was handed a new contract by MoN before he left?

[hawkeye]

I really do believe he is going to be very specia, there is no doubt that his performances will attract a lot of interest and this is what our accademy is all about, the other kids can see that if they work hard and have the ability the reward is a contract with The Villa- good work by the club getting these players signed up

[UK Redsox]

he had his driving test a week or so ago, wonder if he passed it. Good luck to him.

I think he failed the driving test but the new deal does mean that he can now give up his paper round

[Surrey Villain]

He can afford a chauffeur now anyway his next test is 7 Dec I think.

[peter w]

His reverse parking did it for him.

[Dave Cooper please]

He's living the dream isn't he? Breakthrough into the first team, first cap for his country, touted by almost everyone as a future star.
Good on him.

[eamonn]

Good news but why not the customary 4? Hopefully it's us feeling he still has a lot to prove rather than his ''advisors'' not wanting him tied-down too long.

Regardless, he's certainly come a long way since choinkgate.

[Legion]

Great news. Really pleased.

[N'ZMAV]

Yep. Great news. He's going to be an excellent little player. As long as he keeps his head.

[villajk]

Delighted for him and us.  Good luck Barry.

[PaulWinch again]

Good stuff, good luck Barry.

[The Left Side]

Well done Barry, now push on and make the place in the team your own
