Excited and nervous at the same time. New players to the Premiership which may take time to get off the ground but definitely some exciting prospects. Bring it on!

I'm completely unfazed.

Quite clearly we're going to win the league though.

Yes indeed - more excited than I thought possible when you're talking about the Villa and a transfer window.

The activity, the breadth of signings, surprises that really give me a lift , like Gestede.
I'm excited, I'm optimistic  . . . . and I'm getting in front of myself!

Transfer deadline day is going to be boring though isn't it?  All that pent up hope, only for a dawning realisation that we're not buying anyone as the clock ticks closer to midnight.

I'll be absolutely delighted not to be a part of that complete gong show. Hopefully we'll all be sitting back while everyone else panics to get deals done, with the only activity being that one or two players will leave the club that we need to move on.

Excited already, if we make another 1 or two signings I'll be ecstatic.

So excited a little bit of wee pops out when I think about where we could potentially be in a season or two

I'm feeling better about the start of the new season with all the new players we've got in well done to Tim for getting the players he wanted I can't wait for the season to start.

I feel far more optimistic than in most recent years, tinged with a dash of caution.  The caution is because there are a lot of unknown quantities,  and if not all the signings are Sherwood's choices there is the chance he might take to them.

Today is the transfer deadline day for Baseball. Maybe Randy got his sports muddled up and that's why Villa have done so much business by the end of July.

As we walked away from Wembley stadium in May, and I distinctly remember saying to my mates that I would be happy if every last one of the wastrels who had let us down so badly were got rid of and we started again.

That's pretty much what is happening, and I am over the moon about it.

Vive la revolution !!
