I'm confused. We haven't actually sold Darren Bent yet have we? So why get in a striker on loan when we already have a far superior striker loaned out to another club? Also Nathan Delfouneso is still on our books.

Loans between Premier League clubs have to be season long with no right to recall the player, I believe.

Didn't we have Walker from January?

It has to be until the end of the season.

We sign Holt.

Hull sign Jelavic and Long.

We aren't even competing with Hull City anymore.

Lerner, Faulkener & Lambert, go now please.

Strange logic. Do Hull already have the likes of Gabby and Benteke playing up front for them?

That would be the Benteke that has scored 1 goal since September and Gabby who has scored 3 all season.

So you'd prefer Long to Benteke?
No, I'd prefer Long to Holt.

To be fair he doesn't look that rotund in the "holding up The Shirt" picture.

Yeah what am I saying, Benteke and Gabby are both shit. Lets spend millions on Long and Jelavic.

There's a corset underneath his tracksuit top.

Right you are, I'll stop with the unfunny remarks.

Welcome to the Villa, Grant. Good luck!

Nailed on to score the winner against the Pride of the Midlands. In the 96th minute.. Off his arse and from an offside position.

Well, looks like he's signing so we'd better think of a song for him.

I nominate

"Holt! Holt! Wherever you maybe
You're more prolific than Heskey
You have a tum
smaller than Richard Dunne
We are the boys from the Holt Army"


You need to rework 'Emile' into the second line.
