28 year old on £70k a week who's a traditional winger and not that good.

Carlsberg don't do 'least likely Lambert signings', but if they did.....

Ha ha

Express and Star

Aston Villa could offer Stewart Downing a shock return to the club but will only go as high as £6million, mindful of the £70,000-a-week wage the 28-year-old earns at Liverpool.

Hopefully the news of N'Zogbia being out has made them put two and two together.


so 2+2=stupid?

I reckon Downing could do a job.





Is he any good at selling programmes?

Really?  Well it won't be in a solicitor's office.  All the t's in the contracts would remain uncrossed.

Out of Barry youngy milner and dj Stewie. downing would be least welcome but maybe most likely ! All of the others aren't likely so don't expect any. Barry would be most preferred then milner and young though if we had all 3 then 4th place here we come !

This made me laugh..

Tottenham are ready to make a new swap offer for Aston Villa striker Christian Benteke with Spurs Togolese attacker Emmanuel Adebayor going the opposite direction.

The Express & Star says Villa may be offered forward Emmanuel Adebayor, 29, plus a £20m transfer fee.

This is to enable Spurs to prise away star striker Benteke away from the Claret and Blues.

Jermain Defoe had previously been mentioned as a makeweight in Tottenham’s pursuit of the Belgian.

Of the 4 i would take Milner ahead of the other 3 by a distance but highly unlikely to happen.

Ha ha ludicrous on so many levels. Adebayor a player with massive wages and ego to boot, sounds exactly like a Lambert player.

I'd just like to remind Ricky that all Champagne is French. There.

Many French Champagne producers such as Moet Chandon produce Champagne in Argentina, where they are allowed to call it Champagne.

Not a lot of people know that. (Unless you are an Argie of course.)

If memory serves, it's called Chandon. All the big French champagne producer are operting in Argentina. I guess the land price is cheaper than Kent.

Yes, you're right, they do brand it Chandon.
Domain Chandon was first launched as a Californian sparkling wine. It has since launched in other wine-making countries.
Champagne has global protection on its geographic label.

Twitter fluff:

The German press are strongly linking Hiroshi Kiyotake with Aston Villa. Hiroshi Kiyotake is a 23 year old Japan international from FC Nuremburg.
