Anyone remember when they used to stick a couple of sentences on the bottom right hand corner of the back page?

Good read Dave.  I've obviously had my head in the sand over the last week or so, to whom are you referring at the end?

Forgive me DW, but who is the player who has 'just moved overseas'?

I found a typo Dave. You put 'maing' instead of 'maring':

It's still Lescott.

Is it actually being suggested here that Lescott should have been kept?

He's not talking about lescott surely?

I remember him coming on to steady the ship at Leicester last season!

Dave is being ironic for sure about Lescott, but the attributes that he describes are what we expected to get when the wastrel was signed. However by this stage of Joleon's  'career' all that that this supposed Villa fan was interested in was fast cars and bling. Just about sums up the entitled mindset of a whole lot of players currently soiling our supposedly beautiful game.
