I overheard a telephone conversation earlier this morning outside of all places, The Royal Shakespeare Theatre in Stratford. It first got my attention when he mentioned ''Paul Lambert will be there to meet him'' he then said ''his flight gets in at five thirty''. Intrigued, I tried to get more of the conversation, but he was one of these persons who walks whilst on the phone. The other bits that I picked up on was somebody called Lee was taking care of everything and his accommodation was booked. He also said ''why should they get all the glory when we have put all the work in'' and one that made me smile was ''we all know what these fucking footballers are like''.

Make of it what you will.

Depends on whether you were wearing your Villa shirt at the time or am I being cynical?

Luc Nilis

Luc Nilis popped into my mind this morning after hearing Mark Lillis had taken temporary control of Huddersfield.

And that got me thinking. They sound similar, but could you imagine two more diametrically opposed footballers in our history? Luke, the smooth continental man with exceptional technique, and Mark.

It was probably an actor rehearsing for Henry Bassett IV. The scene where he finally goes mad.

Luc was the sort of player who comes to us once in a decade. Mark is the sort of player, with no disrespect to him, who we will be getting in the foreseeable future.

Time to get that Trees fella to the site with his flight arrivals schedule. Better still, get him situated at Elmdon with his kodak electra.
