Suarez would mark a welcome return to sweatband wearing
He'd get us chomping at the bit, for sure.

Colgate would pay half the wages and meat is murder the other half so not a bad signing.

I can’t remember who the manager was, but didn’t he call Foster out for wearing the sweat band?

Along the lines of, Foster said it was to protect scar tissue, manager said load of boll**ks

Remember my (slightly rotund) mate at school coming to play football once with a sweatband on. Got mercilessly harangued with "Since when did you break in to a sweat?", then proceeded to me called Sweaty Terry for the rest of his time at school.

Makes sense. 

The training ground is next to the Belfry.

Apparently we’ve been linked to Gareth Bale now!!!

Because the so reliable Tony Cascarino said he might come back to England to play for the likes of Newcastle or Villa.  Would certainly be a gamble, but fit, would be a really good player.  Shame he lost his motivation and took him the best part of half a season with Tottenham just to get fit.

Not sure he'd be that use in the way we play, but he's a great player and would be an asset as long as his head's in the right place.

Still got a Villa wrist sweatband, I think from the 1980s. Think I've seen pictures of Withe wearing them, but when was the last time a footballer wore them in England?

Ah yes. This makes it even more annoying that I didn't get Burkina Faso on Flagle the other day
