No Bent?

They're going to sell him, aren't they?

Madness.

Heskey? WHY!?

I've a horrible feeling that, after the brief elation of him seeing the light against Arsenal, he's going back to old habits.

You and me both. Bent must still be in the Boxing Day sale queues.

My Brother-in-law is over from Poland and I was hoping to drag him to the pub for the game, but he said he has to work tonight...he's been given the Villa game to set odds for.

He works for an online betting company, and as long as there is a broadband connection he can do his job anywhere in the world. He set the odds pre-game last night and gets a live stream during the game and adjusts the in-game odds for all the stuff like bookings, next goal etc.

His prediction?

"Villa should always beat Stoke, but 1 - 0 to Stoke"

Which un-discovered tribes of pygmies could probably predict.

Old school
. Not many operators use traders these days, especially not for live events.

*nods head appreciatively*

We're going to lose.

*shakes head sadly*

It is Poland!
