Perhaps we're being bought out by the H.P. Lovekraft company.

ETA - It's difficult to look at that gif and not think of what she said about 50 Cent.

Today's been like most of my Christmas days through the 1970's.... wanted a Raleigh Chopper .... received a Tomahawk..... Wanted a 77 Villa strip got an Admiral (itchy) England training top..... Wanted Evel Kneivel stunt cycle got an Action Man Motor Bike & sidecar !!! ie Disappointing !!!!

All of those presents were still ace, though.

Your parents scrimped and saved and did their best for you. All they wanted was for you to be happy. And you come on here and expect us to feel sorry for you.

Hang your head.

Just heard Pepe Mel has left West Brom.

Now, that loud ITK bloke on twitter, Indykaila: https://twitter.com/indykaila 

said this this morning:

@mark_rollason @Sie_the_donkey Foster is gone. Mel as well...

He also said this:

Exclusive: Kraft group have submitted a bid for Aston Villa football club. Unconfirmed price is £180 million. Lambert to lose job. #AVFC

The last bit is obvious, a new owner almost always wants his own man so it is usually just a matter of when. However, as a non Twitterer is there any reason to take this any more seriously than all the nonsense that was was being posted here emanating from Eastie's new padded cell?

No.

presumably we're talking Robert Kraft the Canadian guy? He has been linked before by TBAR ITK's I think.

I mentioned Kraft on there few weeks back just as a guess ...I'm 100% NITK

Kraft was interested in buying into prem league but was put off by the spending , think with FPP he may be interested again as now more like the USA model of spending within means. but this is literally all just guess work.

I know Robert "Bob" Kraft and the last time I spoke to him, he never gave any indication that he was interested in buying a Premier League team. Mind you, he is a retired Professor from the University of Delaware who now winters in Florida.


However, if you're not talking about my mate Professor Bob but are instead discussing the Robert Kraft who owns the New England Patriots, he's not Canadian. He was born and still lives in the Boston area.

End of season awards dinner tomorrow night has been cancelled

Do the press attend this event or is it just players?  It's a pretty poor state of affairs if morale is so low that the players/club/staff do not fancy a bit of a knees up after a long hard season.  I find it a bit odd.  Illogical even.
