In your normal, admirable style TV you are saying we need a couple of bastards.  I agree.

Noticed that myself but I hope they're wrong on that one.
Thought he looked really good at Boro.

Was talking to a Albion season ticket holder at my workplace this morning. He cant believe they've let Chester go if only for the reason of lack of bodies as back up. Reckons Billy Jones at  Sunderland would be a good player for us and he rated him a better player than Chester.

Aparently the stripies are non to enamoured with the goings on since their takeover. I made him feel at ease by taking the piss.

yes sir. Pretty much. Blokes who are willing to put their fingers in the chest of their teammates and challenge them to be better. Who do not give in or give up. Who view conceding a goal as not being the end of the world but another hill to overcome in the fight. Who believe Villa Park is our home and is worth defending. Who see Aston Villa is a club worth fighting for. Who understand the fans deserve much, much better.

In other words: Fuck you! we're Aston Villa!

It was interesting to hear Pulis say the deal for Chester  is a good for them If they reinvest,  why wouldnt they ??

For a loan signing, I can't really see the harm.

I think he could dig us out of a hole.

Bamford should really go to the Tractor Boys where Massey, Ferguson, Case, Ford and Holland made their names.

It's always good to have a couple of bastards in your line up.

Makes our guys want to step up to their level of commitment and scares the shit out of the opposition. Two would be good, three or four even better!

For T'Uddersfield the team could be..

                                          Gollini

                         Chester      Elphick     Baker
       
       De Laet         Ledley         Jedinak        Amavi

                         Ayew                        Grealish

                                       McCormack


In a perfect world we'd also say bye to ..

Richards, Gabby, Okore, Sir Len, Cisshoko, Gardner, Pointy, Justhead, Kozak, Bunn, Traore.

I hope the Chester deal ends any debates about Dr Tony not providing the cash. We've just spent £20 million in the last couple of weeks.

I just don't see McCormack being a lone striker.  He's a 'number 10' type player who will play off a forward.  I said it in an earlier post, but we desperately need a bit of pace and movement up front.
