Jason on the WM phone-in last night said he had heard a rumour that Doug was going to buy back the club for his son Peter.

That's just what we need... another son of a self made man.

Whistleblower Elaine Rose believes he should come back, and I quote "He loves the Villa. Never misses a game. BRING BACK SIR DOUG."

I know this because it transpires she's the mother of a lad I used to play football with, and I'm mates on Facebook with him and his cousin.

Saw a snippet:

- extra training for those not showing it on the pitch
- Randy to attend a match with him (admits it isn't going to happen)
- too old to take back the reins

He was quite emotional, in his way. "Married to Aston Villa".

A lot of nothing in truth.

Not disagreeing with Doug's sentiments but it would have been nice for him to have this wisdom when he was chairman in '86.
