“Is pleased” surely it’s “Are pleased”?

Good to see we're planning ahead to maintain Villa's traditional links with Scotland. Every great Villa team has had a Scot or two.

Welcome, Fletcher. He must be good if we aren't loaning him out again.

“Is pleased” surely it’s “Are pleased”?

Nope, it's a club, singular.

[cdbearsfan]

No, it's a collective. Bren is correct. "We" not "he".

[Rudy Can't Fail]

I think in this case it's wee.

Probably Heck converted everyones grammar settings to US and they forgot to change it back.

Welcome, Fletcher. He must be good if we aren't loaning him out again.

Wait until January.

Welcome young man!

[Rigadon]

I will look forward to him being loaned out / playing his way into the first team and then being the subject of intense rumour and speculation about a move to SpursManUtdChelseaArsenalLiverpool.

Just like every great Villa forum.
