Really at this point in time I am going to bed as this scenario unfolding cannot be real and when I get up in the morning it will all have been a bad nightmare!

That's what I thought about McLeish. Horror exists. Fucking hell, Villa these days should be advertised like a Wes Craven film - "Paul Faulkner Presents: The Signing..."

Chill out everyone, if Benteke stays fit Holt'll get about as many minutes as Dawkins did.

Oldish photo and not showing him as he is today.

Since then he has piled on a few extra pounds over Xmas like the rest of us

When I said experience, this wasn't what I was thinking off.

I think I'd rather we signed Grant Hart.

Any Wigan fans looking for our reaction, be advised, it's a big thumbs down from us.

In fact on reflection I think I'd rather we signed Bob Mould, he's probably svelter.

He's actually taking the piss out of us isn't he? What a pathetic attempt at improving things. I'm usually quite upbeat and level headed. Signing Holt would be an abomination.

I haven't got too much of a problem with it as long as it's just a loan and it's not all we end up doing.

If one signing shows how hard we have fallen, this is it.

Pray it is on loan

You just know when something's not right about a transfer. There are loads on Twitter saying 'oh, it's backup, for six months, while Kozak's injured.' He isn't - Holt is an exercise in doing things on the cheap again. There are so many other potential ways we could bring experience in, but Lerner either won't finance it, or Lambert hasn't got the imagination to see it, or both.

Grant fucking Holt.
