Can't say I'm that fussed about one journo's opinion - a better time to judge the squad's merit's may be when this transfer windows closed.
Here's hoping he's got more players to rate.

This really has to stop. As a collective group there is a preponderance to wander across to a hint of the up beat when I can see nothing but gloom.
We still have signed only one player, I say one player because i can see the second one going out on loan by November. The amount of faith placed in one man astounds me, Villa supporters better than most should by now have learned to sit on the fence until the proofs in the pudding.
We are so attractive a proposition that some Jock prefers to speak to a newly promoted side who most likely will be back where they belong in a short space of time, than come direct to Villa. Spurs don't seem to have this problem. I can see an avalanche of Harewoods coming to fill the void, they won't actually play any games but the numbers will look good.
I have on medical advice agreed to a brief holiday in the north where the sun is shining and access to a computor is limited, the doc said i have become fixated and am in need of a circuit breaker. HEEEEEELP.

Keep calm. Walk away from the computer. Switch off the Radio. Switch off the TV. Think of rolling countryside, running water, fields of crops, grass, football ARGHHH!

I thought only housemates were allowed to participate in those threads.

Nah. Just go over there's a great throwing paper into the waste paper basket game. I'm there for hours. Well since the basdtard BB kicked me out of the house I've had a lot of time on my hands.

I'm now worried we're going to become a clone of the Cleveland Browns. 8 players out. 2 in. (Is that correct?). Perennial underachievers?

Who did we get in the first draft? You spot any talent in Brazil, Lee?

I'm now worried that Sunderland are more attractive than us, that Davies will go elsewhere too, and that it'll take until the end of the transfer window for O'Neill to scrape the egg off his face..

Loads of talent, but Mrs. Legion was with me. Footballing wise, I caught quite a few games on their local TV channels. Extremely skilful players with comical defending at times. Their G-Ks make Sorenson look sublime.

I'm not worried about Gordon. It seems that it was a done deal and we weren't actually involved. Clubs often do this when an agreement is reached with one club only they will let club B or C know that they are dealing with club A and if that falls through then they can talk to the player. It is clear that we did not have permission to talk to the player.

I'm not getting any less worried since my diagnosis. In fact I am getting more and more worried as each day passes. It's all very well those people saying we have a stronger first XI than this time last year, but then at least we had reserves in the stands as well as on the bench!

I've asked The General to send the SEALS around to MON's house to encourage in him 'a greater sense of urgency'. Perhaps this will work and ease the strain for all of us.

Meantime, in conclusion, I am still worried. Very worried.

Is alcohol the answer? Does it work for you guys?
