well obviously so - Doug is a fantastic talent and BB isn't. Plus he's the most saturnine footballer ever.

Good luck to him, he always tried, the goal against Wolves capped one of our best days this decade and the goal against Wigan may have been crucial to us going up, in the end.

Hope he finds a decent club.

We've done him a favour by making him a free agent before the window closes. Good luck to him, just never got going for us.

I am a little sad to see Birkir leave ,not the greatest player to wear a Villa shirt but always gave 100% and was useful in the Championship as a squad player. Would'nt be surprised if he ended up at Small Heath ,that is where all our rejects seem to end up

I wish him well, he should have no problem getting fixed up.  Thanks BB and good luck.

Never really got going did he?  Not the kind of player we need around if we are looking to be aiming higher.  He will do a job for a half decent championship side still.

Not remotely sad or surprised to see him go.  He was mostly crap, and a miserable looking sod as well.

I quite liked him but we've got better players than him now, all the best to him.

I wish him luck, always gave his all and he did get somewhat better after a very poor start with us. Would have preferred to hear Tosser or Lansbury had gone but his game time would have been severely limited this season anyway so he's probably set something up elsewhere.

I know he wasn’t the greatest player we’ve ever had but I always had a soft spot for him and wanted him to do well, that goal against Wolves will stay in my memory. Hope he does well wherever he ends up.

He always played better for his country than us, but on some days he looked quite good.

The highlight was the goal v Wolves and also the bullet header at Bristol. I also recall the dreadful miss at Preston last season.
