Don't Buy The Mail, and DON'T LET THESE c***s INTO VILLA PARK. The stadium rules are quite clear that opposition fans should only sit in the designated away end.
Where I agree with him is if we are prepared to sell we should just say 'this is the price if you pay it you can have him.' It's just that that price should be a fuck-ton of money to reflect we would be selling our once in a generation player and one of the best English born players in the game.

Whereas Tottenham selling their players for overinflated sums is good business (no anti-semitism, Levy just happens to be a hard-nosed businessman) we should be grateful for the intetest. We're standing in our players' way. If anything, we should be paying Man Utd to buy them. That's what we'd do if we really cared about their chances of winning trophies and playing for England, surely?
Lescott hates us these days so it's no surprise he's coming out with shit like that.

The truth is that every player has a price so, if he wants to go, we set that price, taking into consideration the three or four years he has left on his contract and his value to us. We don't negotiate. We don't answer the phone until the offer matches the price. Deal.Edit: just realised you were joking. Sorry, long day!
