1878

Not at all. Just playing shit because he's out of position. I wouldn't let Pearce run a pub team.

The best one today was conspiracy theories about Randy Lerner's jet flying round the world and Moyes going to meet him in a helicopter :lol: Oh, and Moyes playing golf with Gary McAllister = Moyes taking over Villa with McAllister as assistant.

Don't see what was wrong with him on the show really. He's the most boring, useless pundit ever. Plonk a rock down on the MOTD sofa and it would provide more insight.

Saha, Distin, Gueye... Fellaini is a native French speaker as well. An advantage of signing for us would be not having to move house again. Think we're still a bit ahead of you squad-wise too, but a move to Newcastle would have its own pluses. Reckon our chances of doing a deal depend greatly on quick sales of fringe players (Yobo, Yak etc) to raise the cash.

Probably when/if a job with serious funds is offered to him i.e. not Aston Villa

90% of them have been adamant about it on their forums for weeks now. New bullshit rumours about it are invented & spread by Villa fans over twitter on a daily basis. Becoming extremely tiresome. Can smell the desperation seeping through my laptop.

Of course he is, happens every time people are 'watching him' He's like those Ghosts from Mario that stand still when you look at them, but do wonders when you turn your back. I might use that one in work.

He's not dressed like a scouse scally in the slightest, believe me. No Air Max 110's or all black North Face gear for a start. I think Barton fancies himself as an indie-type. The couple of times I've seen him in town has been in those kind of bars rather than the 'exclusive' show-off shitfests that most footballers go for.

Rodwell hasn't lived up to the hype but he is still streets ahead of Mancienne. Pearce is a terrible coach.

I don't think there's THAT big a difference between us but I do think it was a bit bigger than the table suggested last season tbh. The amount of daft points we threw away & harsh results we suffered in the first half of the season was unbelievable. I think the sides will genuinely be a bit closer this time round because you seem to be making some good moves in the transfer market.

This is brilliant McLeish is terrible. The most boring, dour, negative manager in a long while... so, that's Villa being no threat to anyone for the foreseeable. His name is going to be mud in that city. Brum fans will hate him for going to Villa & for the shithouse way he resigned. Villa fans will hate his football and the mid-table oblivion it will bring them, even though they've got a decent squad.

Grayson being appointed would send me sky high in the roflcopter

I they're loaded now then they won't have or want to sell Erding surely?

A Geremi-esque signing. Nah, think he's got a lot more about him. His nous & reading of the game should see him through.

The fucking cheek of it. Birkenhead should be floated off into the Irish Sea and left stranded. Instead of being the one eyed city you can be the one eyed island.

That's from an 'ITK' on bluekipper who has got a few things right beore. His mate is a football agent. He posted last week that Ba was after 72k a week. Cheeky b******. He'll get 30k and f***ing like it. Think he's already on 30/35k at West Ham and a free transer means he wants some of that saving passed on in his wage packet. Can't see anyone being daft enough to pay him over, say, 50k though.

Marcos Senna in talks with Swansea according to his agent. If they set up the midfield so that he doesn't have to run then he'll do a job for them

Those betting markets tell you nothing apart from which teams fans have lumped a bit of cash on at the bookies. Usually based on what someone said on twitter or a message board. Caughtoffside.com is probably a better source.

unfair. bouhlarouz has been decent everywhere he has played bar chelsea. f*** knows what that was about, probably because the dickheads gave him the 9. i.e. places where it's not as fast or physical as in England. He's crap.

were I wenger I'd still think of accepting it or getting a price both parties can agree to Double it and we'll talk, then offer £10m for Baines and hope I think. £10m?! We're not a f***ing charity shop I think it would get you thinking though, you need the cash, could maybe cash in and would probably go for Warnock or something. I reckon £14m we could get him, but we'd probably go French and cheaper. Absolutely no chance for those kind of figures. His market value is £20m+ and Arsenal don't pay the going rate for established players. You tried & failed to buy Jags this time last year for some daft offer like £12m. Besides all that, I don't forsee Baines going anywhere anyway. He doesn't want to leave the area full stop.

Find it incredibly hard to believe we have bid that kind of cash for anyone

So he is off then, contrary to the first tweet Dave posted. Just making sure the fans know he didn't ask for the move.
