Breaking News: Bent Signs

[N'Rexy]

He is so Bent its unbelievable.

My suggestion for a random song.

I'll go now...

[olaftab]

I'll bet we only have to pay £24M if we win the Champions League and Bent wins the Eurovision Song Contest.

My money is on Bent!

[mshurst]

I refuse to have Bent on the back of my shirt.

[glasses]

Right, song. Thought up last night whilst dreaming of him scoring a hat-trick on Saturday (Come on, I wasnt the only one right!)

Adams family tune

He scores them with his left foot,
He scores them with his right foot,
The goals are gonna pile up,
His name is Darren Bent...etc

[CheeriOneill]

Not read all 55 pages but what number shirt will/would Bent wear?

Not normally something I'm bothered about but as our record signing and potentially the goalscorer we have not had for decades I'm not sure giving him 37 is right?

On reflection who cares! Get him in, get him playing and watch him go!!!

We need to work any new chant around Tangerine Dream's "Bent Cold Sidewalk" featuring vocals by the "Uncle Steve" of H&V's very own Supertom.

8? Why did Ireland have to be an idiot and take 9?

Edit: Pires is 8, I forgot he existed.

Did Bent play against us in the recent 0-1, if he did, I don't recall him doing much (perhaps he knew then he was coming ?)

Yes he did and possibly had 1 half chance in a very poor Sunderland performance.

The Bent to Chelsea rumours seem to be gathering pace now on the net.  Come on Villa sign him up and prove them wrong.  (And stop me panicking).   

[PeterWithe]

I wonder if General Krulak could sort out some kind of mobile phone jamming device around the training ground.

[strevs]

Guardian seem pretty sure the deal is pretty much done http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2011/jan/17/darren-bent-sunderland-aston-villa

And we're gathering the mikes for the press conference.  Relax.

Reports suggest Steve Bruce is already busy making plans on what he's going to do with the £18m fee for Darren Bent.

He's going to pay off his tab at Greggs.

I hear he's already used some of it to hire a royal box at the theatre.
