Brendan Rodgers please.

Certainly, sir - that'll be £8m.  Would you like me to wrap him for you?


i said earlier that i thought it was around the 8 mill mark, but it seems it is more like 5mill,

but a buy out clause definitely exists because Rogers himself said so when he recently signed his new 3 and a half year contract

If I may make a suggestion, constantly refreshing Oddschecker in reference to the the next Villa manager is a path paved with sorrow so best avoided.  Last summer the bookies had both Sven and Bob Bradley as odds on at various points.

Absolutely, it's such a small market that a couple of £50 bets destroy the odds as the bookies react to anything that might hurt them.

Anyone with 50 to spare stick it on Coyle and lets see what happens to his odds to set our minds to rest please?!

That's about as much as Richard Dunne cost. I'd take that.

Not a chance is it McCarthy, the vibrancy thing implies a young manager.

I wouldn't.  I don't think there's enough evidence to justify using money we need to spend on the defence buying out his contract.

Ha ha..not a chance. They've learnt their lesson in hiring managers with a track record for relegation...

Just heard a whisper that the odds on Mick have collapsed. If he is appointed, Lerner has had it. I like Mick, a nice, honest, hard working manager, but not a good manager in the PL.

It's not a whisper. Seems as loud as it can possibly get.
