And Sunderland sign that defender we were after from France.

It wasn't him, it was another one with the same first name.

It's all going so well. I bet Remi is loving the job!

It's also knowing I'm going to have to watch us losing with shit like Bacuna, Westwood, Richardson, Gabby, Hutton, Gestede, Kozak blah for the rest of the season as we disappear down the plughole which I could do without. Knowing the club half of them will still be here stinking the place out next season as well as we pretend Bacuna is a jack of all trades, Westy a dynamo that keeps things ticking and Kozak has this instinct. They don't they're fucking crap, that's why we have next to no points as we enter February.

Crespo, Senderos, Cole, Steer, Bennett all out. Surely we have at least a couple coming in?

Yeo realised that after. Ours was called Seine wasn't he?!

I can't believe there is any truth to the Croatian Keeper rumour. The board would be crazy to sanction spending cash on anybody who isn't going to want to play in the Championship. Stick with what we have so we can at least let the players gel a little for next seasons battle at getting back into the Prem.

Anyone who isn't going to want / be prepared to play in the Championship isn't going to join us in the first place.

Internationals play in the championship, look at the Hull squad.

What makes you think this Croatia keeper would think the championship is beneath him, he isn't the number one for Croatia.

I think the clubs intentions regarding transfers is decided, it may have been different late Dec. I think the Xmas results sealed our fate so they decided to shut up shop. Surely nobody really blames them?

I'm more intrigued as to why anyone would think a non eu player with only two caps wouldn't have work permit issues but maybe I'm being harsh.

What about giving a trial to some of these young men pretending to be refugees?

If they are at work permit stage then he clearly wants to come!

That Santos scored again tonight. 300k with our current strikers? What's stopping us?

Yep. Do nothing now, save money, jettison high wage earners, get ready to sign up every decent Championship player on June 1st. If Villa were a well- run club. So, the high earning 30 strong committee definitely is not doing that, then...
