Whenever I see the words "Sky Sports News understands" I always hear it in my head in the same voice/accent as "it's Ireland's largest lingerie department I understand".

If I see one of those hot sky presenters saying Sky understands Aston Villa will be taken over by QIA with Mourinho saying he wants to be Villa manager  .   My pants will go in the washer straight away .

My mind converts "Sky Sports News understands" as "The following is diabolical whimsy conjured by our YTS lads".

My mind also converts anything Charlie Webster or Kirsty Gallagher says to "James, can you help me with my bra...".

My pants go in the washer after seeing the Irish bird with her lovely norks.

I just can't wait for the day when the word 'rumour' can be taken away from the heading of this thread.

If Millie Clode tells me we have been taken over by QIA I will probably explode with enough force to put the patio windows through.

I like Alex Hammond.

If she announced an imminent takeover by some minted Eco dodgers, you'd be able to put a paint brush on it and I could paint your celing.

Natalie Sawyer's magnificent rack for me.

If she announced it the wife would have to put a brunette wig on (she's blonde) and would get some serious seeing to.

Agree about Natalie Sawyer.

If she announced it, the wife would have put the lotion on or she'd get the hose.

Unlikely, but how brilliant would it be?

A bit like when you sometimes go off into a daze imagining what you would do if you won the lottery.

Can someone confirm whether this is true or not? If it's true, then I can be elated. If it's not, then I don't have to spend the next few hours pressing F5 repeatedly and waiting for my dreams to be dashed. Ta.

I wonder how attractive a proposition we really would be if another money no object type was looking for an English club.

We've already had one crack at it and managed to average over 40K once, and managed to lose a shed load of money along the way. When the money stopped the crowds dropped.

Taking my Villa hat off, I can't help but wonder how attractive would that be to an outsider?
