Hans Gilhaus (if a trialist counts as an ex Villa player).

Hans Gilhaus trialled at Villa? I didn't know that. He was great for Aberdeen.

Unpromising name, a mashup of three hapless Simpsons characters.

That's very good, made even better by the fact that it was posted by someone with a Simpsons username.

I must have missed the episode of the Simpsons featuring Field Marshal Bernard Law Montgomery, 1st Viscount of Alamein.

During Big Ron's second season.  Around the time we had Frank McAvennie as well.

Gillhaus played (and scored) when we beat Liverpool reserves 7-1 or summat like that.

He must be the only celebrity who hasn't had a tedious cameo, then.

He deliberately died in 1976 to get out of it.

Why would Saints sell Ings?

It was more of a wish than an expectation we would get him.

I was at that game, was all about Beinlich & Breitkreuz (sp!), didn’t realise we had a trialist playing

I rate him quite highly. He has scored a decent amount of goals everywhere he has played. Ironically apart from a loan spell at Valencia the only other team he has failed to score goals at is his parent club Chelsea. I would have thought he might have been the sort of player Lampard likes and at 26 he should be at his peak.
