As a bit of comic relief this was posted on another board today about Redknapp.  It deserves to be true i think

"I have a very good contact who used to work at Tottenham (now works at another Prem club).

At the start of the season Spurs had to submit their list of players for the UEFA Cup. 'Arry's hand written list looked like it had been done by a 6 year old. The writing was spidery and veered off at an angle half way down so that the list looked like a reversed "J".

The list of 25 players included "Dazza" instead of Danny Rose and "Benwar" for Benoit Assou-Ekotto. Only 23 players were listed. Nunbers 24 and 25 had "Ask Joe?" written next to them"

It's the Mirror so don't take it seriously.


"Aston Villa are moving for West Brom star Jonas Olsson as they prepare to sell fellow centre-back James Collins.

Welsh international Collins is up for sale, and QPR have been told they can have him for £5million.

Villa boss Alex McLeish, who has to sell before he can buy, wants to then reinvest the Collins cash in Olsson.

The Swede, 28, only has 18 months left on his contract at The Hawthorns and has failed to agree a new deal.

Albion are now reluctantly considering cashing in on him rather than risk his value plummeting.

If Villa can shift £40,000-a-week Collins, they could get Olsson on cheaper terms. "

  I'd go for Huth instead.

  If Bent goes though i would be interested in Long tbh.Have been very impressed with him this season.

  The only thing about Jordan Rhodes, is will it stifle the development of Weimann, who whenever i have seen him play looks very good.

  Would love Capoue.

Yep.

Although to be fair Phil Dowd was more at fault than Olsson

And to be fair, Darren Cann was more at fault than Phil Dowd.

Interesting,

Putting that on an official site is disgraceful and I hope Villa will be complaining.

It's the holier than thou, sanctimonious, divine right type of attitude that I despise them for.  Absolutely horrible club. 

Happy to bring up the Hillsboro tragedy at the drop of a hat but seem to have a collective amnesia when it comes to Hysel.

Agreed, typical of the club.
