Do they have a tribute band called Lwnmower Deth?

Well, Genesis had a hit record with "I Knw Wht I Lke" in which Peter Gabriel lamented "Me I just a Lwnmwr, you can tell me by the I wlk" after he had been advised that there was a future for him in fire escape trade.

In other less than auspicious news, Phil Collins has announced he is no longer officially retired.

Yeah I saw that, obviously broke. Just as long as he doesn't start recording new material

I think someone mentioned pages back that Henry might be a possible coach / assistant to Garde.

While Garde would like his old staff, there was a time when he had to start a bit fresh, and if he's keen to come, well, you roll with the punches and change it.

Maybe he is organising a new staff team and that takes a bit of time?

Well Henry would certainly improve our free kick technique. It's called the taking the kick before the ref has blown his whistle manoeuvre. Sometimes also called the working the star struck referee gambit.

Andy Gray has backed Yorke for a role, as Garde is too big a gamble........

Jobs for the boys?

If anything highlights the vacuum of knowledge that pundits have about our club or the game in general, then it's this scenario. It's unreal!

Gray is clueless. Yorke is a far bigger gamble than Garde.

Has Yorke got a book to flog or a bit part in a panto that needs to sell tickets? I honestly can't think of a sane reason why he thinks he's up to the job.

The quality of the football pundits in this country is pathetic.

What sort of role would Yorke have?  Mentoring our players how to make big money moves to other clubs? Come back to our ground and kiss the badge of his new club in front of the Holte? Spend ten years without ever acknowledging that he had a debt of gratitude to Villa?  Air brushing his time with us into some sort of fable?

If Dwight Yorke got his feet under the table at Villa Park, Jack Grealish would be a Manchester United player within six months.

yorke needs to concentrate on being a dad to his son before he starts spouting bollocks

dont know who gray thinks he is to comment how long did he last as big rons assistant
