Tom Cleverley - Loan Confirmed

[Rudy Can't Fail]

I'm more interested in what haircut cheltenhamlion is having...

massive Mohican I reckon...

Even so, it still wouldn't be more ridiculous than Percy's.

You've got some making up to do Tom, so you better perform on the pitch.

Daily Mail has some details.

Cleverley, who was forced to train with the reserves at Carrington last week, was in danger of being left in limbo before Villa boss Paul Lambert revived the deal just before Monday’s 11pm deadline.
Villa were granted an extension by the Premier League until 1am to complete a loan move but the paperwork was not submitted until 1.15am.
They are now waiting to find out if it will be ratified so the 25-year-old can move to Villa Park.

Well, well - didn't expect that. Glad I didn't say out loud what I was thinking last night.

I think Randy is just fucking with Legion, kept it quiet until he apologised and locked the thread

That's the last time I pay attention to him.

[Toronto Villa]

Beg for forgiveness son. Them when you get here work your arse off and show that you were worth the effort and aggravation. All will be forgotten if you do that.

[bobdylan]

I wonder how long we'll have to wait to find out, , will it be today?

[Legion]

The hopeless romantic in me wants us to say "rules are rules" and walk away from any deal.

This, you old romantic.

If you had one shot to break the rules, would a 4 month loan of Tom Cleverley be the card you play?

Assuming this goes through, who's making way for him at anfield ? The zog ?

[Clark W Griswold]

Fuck him and the horse he rode in on. Sooner use the players we have.

[Toronto Villa]

He's an upgrade on Westwood for sure. A midfield of Delph and Cleverely with Sanchez sitting behind isn't bad.

[Holte L2]

Well, well - didn't expect that. Glad I didn't say out loud what I was thinking last night.

I absolutely slated him on Facebook last night.  I was bitter. 

I've put together a dignified post this morning.

It's sport and outside of doing something illegal which he hasn't then we should bring him in. If he helps us then fine. It's not like we are flush with talent in midfield.

Sorry but rules are rules. We'd be furious if another team was allowed to get away with breaking the rules.
