This one looks like it’s going to happen.  I know nothing about him except he’s a ‘wonder kid.’  And he’s leaving the ‘Gers to join us.

Welcome, Rory. If he can be brilliant for Villa and Scotland, that would be nice.

Hear, hear, but he would still only be the second best Rory associated with the Villa. :)

49 goals in their youth set up last season augurs well....

8 goals in 11 for Scotland under-17s, too.

Sounds like Rangers playing hardball over fee so will go to tribunal

I can see why.  We'd be pissed off if he was leaving us for peanuts too I guess

But sounds like a good prospect, we've done well to attract him.

It’s going to be interesting what happens with our U23s this season. They have to find a new manager to replace Delaney, and you have players like Brad Young and the older Chukwuemeka who have done really well at the academy but haven’t done well in their loan moves.

Finn Azazz has had two full seasons in League Two and done really well in both, I can’t see him playing in the academy or fighting for a first team place yet. And now Wilson coming in, will he be loaned or spend a six months or a season in the U23s so we can assess him.

This is odd for Villa - most clubs from whom we've signed youngsters recently have been very complimentary about how we've handled negotiations etc.

Still, if we can't reach agreement, then a tribunal it is.

Just hope it doesn't sour things if we/when we are trying to sign Calvin Bassey.

I'm sick and tired of these people stealing my name.

I think Rangers want to save face and don’t want to be seen to be losing their players so easily. After all, they are the most successful club in world football…

Best change it to Ruairí, or Ruaidhrí just to be on safe side. Can't see us signing anyone from "Rangers" with that name.

Will he usurp our Louie Barry? I hope not, he's Villa!
