Any likelihood Given is signing anytime soon?

"in a few days"

How hard can it be???

Calm down, UsualSuspect. The admin staff have only just got back. Give them a bit of time to chat holidays, compare beach photos, catch up on general gossip and then they'll answer that phone to the nice Mr Given who's been calling every day for the last three weeks......

Agree about Parker and Modric

I wouldn't be surprised if apart from Given we haven't made contact with any club about any other players  :-[

If so that ties into what McLeish said about a keeper being a priority and then wanting to see what he's got.

However, it doesn't mean that agents having already been on the phone to him bigging up certain players.  He'll know who is available and for what price!

I would be amazed if we get Parker

31 in October
Big wages
No resale value

If John Gregory was still in charge we'd have snapped him up in May.

Where did the rumour about all the admin staff going away together come from, and more to the point, how could anyone believe it?

It is taking a while. Maybe it's Foster were going for after all.

I'm pretty sure Mat Kendrick tweeted it as a reason why signings haven't arrived yet - waiting for players to return to training and admin staff to return from holidays before anything happens. No suggestion all the admin staff went away together - you must have come up with that one.

Whether it's true or not, I've mentioned it a couple of times. Makes me chuckle and Gods knows I need something to make me smile about the Villa right now.

Oh, here it is - from a Tweet on June 6

I wonder who he means by admin staff then? I know the girls in the offices have been at work and surely they wouldn't be needed anyway should we really want to sign somebody? It all seems very bizarre!

I'm guessing it's Faulkner.
