Martin Laurence, the whoscored.com bloke, contributes to the Guardian occasionally, Villa fan, tweeted this this morning:

Ooooo #AVFC

I wonder what that's about?

It's his pet name for piles. They've obviously made a reappearance.

Callum Robinson has joined Bristol City on loan for the season

Good stuff, see how he gets on in the Championship.

Good news, I quite like them, got a lot of friends in Bristol, nice lot who generally like the Villa too

We used to be their closest Topflight football years ago - that's possibly why

Yes, very true, also why we have a lot of support in the SW generally - I used to knock around Torquay, Dartmouth, Newton Abbott and the like back in the 90s with my Villa shirt on - the old Mita white/black/blue away shirt comes to mind particularly for some reason, probably because it is still hanging in my wardrobe - and I'd always get loads of locals and holidaymakers coming up to me to chat about the Villa.

I moved to Bristol in '87 - my daughters who were born in Bristol, both support the Villa - the 10 year old collects the shirts and wears them around Bristol and loves justifying her reasons why she supports Villa, especially to those wearing club shirts they have no links to - other than the fact they win things!

My son is the same, he takes no crap from his team mates at football training when they turn out in their Liverpool/Man Utd/Chelsea shirts and try to give him stick about Villa. He always asks how many times they've been to Anfield or Old Trafford etc and reminds a couple of them that they supported different teams when they were at primary school.

According to the E&S Adebayor has asked if he can travel daily from London which Sherwood isn't happy about at all. The situation with Adama Traore is Villa are unwilling to meet his buyout clause which  according to the E&S is £12mil. So he is likely to go to Stoke if they can meet this figure.Like most of you I think he looks the real deal on You Tube. If he does go to Stoke I would be very dissapointed.

Baggies are apparently the club buying rondon for about £15m

Seems to have a good rep?

It would be a bit disappointing to end the window with a strike force of Gestede/Kozak, Ayew and Gabby. There's just not enough goals in it unless Gestede turns out to be a real bargain.

It's as much about the quality as the goals. Unless as you sat gestede scores a lot and / or Ayew is a real success as a live wire player
