He would be the a dream come true for the red top back page headlines. The balanced mind boggles at what they would do with the word "Havana" alone.

He tweeted that in response to a direct question, but terminated the response with a smiley emoticon.

Ah, so it was his version of "you may say so, I couldn't possibly comment". A nod's as good as a wink.

London boy to the takeover thread, London boy to the takeover thread...

Oh good. I've often thought that what this club needs is a less urbane Mike Ashley.

He is very popular here, OK Americans don't have that dislike of people just because they are rich thing going on. In fact that is why they do like him American dream and thing. Like him or not he would make Aston Villa successful.

It's not so much rich people we object to, more just massive bellends. Granted though, there's a lot of overlap.

If you don't want brown on your sausage don't venture over to the "Wife having an affair" thread.


I am so sorry.

Even if the guy's never heard of us, I prefer any rumour to the alternative, which is the sure knowledge that we'll be drifting along for some time to come yet.

It struck me earlier today that following Villa these days is like living in one of those beige, socialist utopias. All the decisions, crazy ones as well, happening without explanation or a recognisable purpose; seeing no money spent and pretending we're competitive; talking about a future that might happen but has no actual timeframe. It's not a nightmare, it's not hell on Earth, it's just...existence.

Totally agree Curious.   It is as though we are all living in the world of Blade Runner.

Didn't Fox come out and say that we should be challenging consistently in the top 7/8 and that it shouldn't take more than 3 years? Something along those lines. Sounds to me like we may be investing a bit more again, the only problem being do you trust Lambert to spend the money or do you trust him whatever is spent to make the team the sum of its parts?
