I think we should give credit where it's due. The people at Villa trying to get this deal done have got the better of Cleverley's agent, Everton and Manchester United.

We have gamed the regulations in our favour, and got a ruling from the Premier League that suits us.

For a club that supposed to be naive and a soft touch when it comes to transfer dealings, that's not bad going.

Is it any coincidence Paul Faulkner was not involved.

I dunno Faulkner played an absolute blinder on Jenas, Nzogbia, Ireland, Given. Hardly cost us a penny.

He wasn't CEO for the first, and the others were reasonably straightforward purchases.

Edit. Actually he probably was CEO for the first.

We were talking about it on our secret ex-managers messageboard this morning, but to be honest, we all got side tracked by the fapping over Kate Upton.

yes, he was CEO in 2010, we sold Downing in 2011. And when you say straightforward, how do you define that? From my recollection there was little straightforward about the Benteke deal.

Give credit where it is due. Not everything was bad just because some things were.

I think that's because the PL panel didn't sit until 2pm today to decide whether or not to accept it.
