just passing on what i've been told from a sports lawyer, can't name him I am afraid. And I hope it is not true but he has no reason to lie

The thing is though that we've heard numerous ITKs who spout the same reasoning of "He is in a position to know and has no reason to lie", but they then quote different stories so can't all be right.  So that leaves four options:-
1.  They think it's right, but have been misinformed.
2.  They do actually have a reason to lie.
3.  The poster is actually just making it all up in the first place.
4.  It's all genuine and will happen.

So, with all the various stories we've heard and the fact Villa play things so close to their chests, 4 is extremely unlikely.  I don't think it'll be Schteve so will be generous and presume your info falls under option 1.

Never been in the Ansell Arms - however, my first flat (Italia 90 - what a great year I had there !) was the now knocked down Chillingholme Tower - and my wedding reception was in the Ressers !. Surprised if the Ansell Arms is still open.

Haven't been to the Bromford for quite a few years (no longer live in Brum) what's it like now.

I was more posh - I lived in Castle Bromwich you know !.

Mat Kendrick thinks he knows who it is but can't say so he settled for basically ruling out everyone else one by one exept Benitez. The bookies agree with him too. Available? Check. Impressive CV? Check. Premier League experience? Check. I reckon it'll be Rafa within a week.

I dont live there anymore either. I live in Halal Green.

The Ansells is now called the Bromford members club or somthing. Bromford is still a shithole.
But one I have fond memories of.

Matt Kendrick up until MON left had no insight into what was going on over anyone else I even remember the ludicrous Peter Crouch was coming back stories . That was because he was frozen out by MON starved of info he is now being fed morsels but far more informed than any other journalist is .

I also wouldn't rule out Benitez totally but the doubt remains over how controllng he could be
