It's a bit sad to see Pat get so wound-up on Twitter about people calling him out on getting the particulars of Bree's signing not entirely correct. He's experienced enough to ignore it.

Some commentators are like strikers - get one in five right and the other four are excused. Others are like keepers - get one wrong and the ten you got right are forgotten. John Percy is amongst the former and Pat Murphy the latter.

FWIW I trust Murphy more than any other mainstream journo out there.  Having said that, I'll happily allow him this mistake if he turns out to be wrong

Seems odd that Pat was sold down the road with the Bree transfer story but he's been right on many occasions so for me he has credibility over some of these other blaggers. I hope with all the abuse he doesn't stop tweeting about Villa matters.

I reckon that behind the facade of a highly respected BBC journalist, he actually gets all his transfer gossip from TBAR.

I dislike Pat Murphy and look forward to the day he stops covering our club. That said I have no reason to doubt he reported what he believed to be true. His style is more snide digs at Villa fans and the club, he doesn't go and invent things for views.

I think Murphy let his dislike of Lerner cloud him and at times was quite bitter towards us in the last few years but I generally think he's ok.
