Summer 2015 - Transfer Rumours, Speculation & Suggestions

Yankee Stadium is not too shabby either - not quite Villa Park tho 

A really good day that I would recommend to anyone visiting NYC.

As much as I try to hate the place, the new Yankee Stadium is a nice ballpark. However, I've managed to never spend a cent in there. I always eat before/after and carry in water to drink.

Pretty good bars across the street, under the rail tracks

Isn't that the equiavlent of I dunno Liverpool fans admitting OT is a great ground?

[exigo]

Some reports in Spain are linking us to Sergi Darder from Malaga, a player I think we were linked to under Lambert...?

He'd slot right into Andi Weimann's old chant.

Or we could sing that naff 80's song 'da da da'.

It is a lot better than Anfield to be fair.

Took the missus to a game while we were in New York. £200 per ticket, and the Yankees hit the ball four times all night.
It made 0-0 home draws under McCleish look like amazing value for money.

A different ballgame, literally. Great MLS game, 4-4, though some dodgy penalties awarded and a couple missed. Tickets were $18 each though we paid a bit more as we made the decision to go on the morning of the game.

As I said, a really good day. Lots of fans wearing shirts of all sorts of clubs - perhaps inevitable.

I spotted one bloke in a Villa t-shirt. Way too many Chelsea shirts all over NYC and there was a big group of Athletico fans stood near us. UTV

Yes, it is. However, its still the Death Star

It's a bric-a-brack monstrosity, a cathedral to the maximisation of profit.

In other words, it's a shit hole.

I saw Fenway Park from the outside earlier this year. No time for the tour.

[MoetVillan]

But like the Death Star, quite a successful shithole*.

*Bad management prevented further success

Not sure if this is the right place, or if it warrants it's own thread...?

Brad is all right.Mr Sherwood can concentrate on getting us a top rate left back]

[Ger Regan]

What a nonsense article. Brad will be our first choice, unless we buy another keeper.

Yeah, and Benteke will be our first choice forward unless we sell him

Sport Italia translated:

Aston Villa is one step away from closing with the purchase of the Malaga midfielder Sergi Darder . The player , followed by Inter and Roma , has already reached an agreement with the Villans , and will go to Birmingham for a figure of around 10 million euro .

Hurray!
