Was it revealed who bid for Diamme? Oh and Lambert is the biggest c**t to be Villa manager since DOL. Stubborn prick......he's been offered money apparently and turned it down. Nobody has killed my interest in football more than this man...!! :(

Tonight reminds me of the season under Venglos when we badly needed players and we ended up signing Gary Penrice.

To be fair, Dr. Jo kept us up fourth from bottom and 4 points clear of third bottom (two went down that year, obv). I'd take that.
I would chew your hand off for that.

I can't wait to hear the Motherwell Mumbler explain this one.
You can replicate any of his press conferences by listening to white noise through your TV, at a very low volume.

I hope somebody in the media has the balls to stand up to him the next time he comes out with "mouth full of marbles" nonsense.  If he tries to fob people off with his "we go again" mantra, tell him that's just not good enough.  Ask him why more signings weren't made in the window and if he comes out with his usual "we looked at a few", ask him exactly why we couldn't sign those players and who made the call that we couldn't sign those players.

This really does remind me of 1987. We needed experienced heads. We got Warren Aspinall from Everton reserves.

Eastie's chucked a rope into the rafters of the control room and hanged himself. Meanwhile, beyond a pair of gently swinging brogues, a hundred flickering TV screens show Jim White having a malevolent orgasm in HD.

That's inexcusable. He would at least have been an experienced body, at the very least no worse than what we have. Absolutely inexcusable.

No one bid for Diame. All part of the usual deadline day bollocks
