My favourite by far, followed by last season's away shirt.

Curry Republic in Henley Saxon Mill near Warwick Maximes in Carvoeiro

Hopefully he signs before the deadline required to take part in the Baggies game.

this is my opinion on it. Only Anderlecht and if he goes then Fulham seemed to have any interest. His agent thought Napoli or Spurs would want him Agreed. Perhaps Richard's optimism equates to us signing a more high profile player?

Lots of nominations.....but away to SHA when they beat us 3-0 was probably the one that sticks out. Going to the Sty is never pleasant but that was probably the worst. Home to Sheff Weds under McNeil when our relegation was confirmed also sticks out for the wrong reasons.

Don't disagree with you Richard, however he performed a minor miracle getting us back up at the first opportunity (I don't think PL is overrated though) In danger of going OT but I'd just ask, did he? I mean he did play up his import with the famous "this club is in a mess"comment. But did he do anymore than another manager could have done at the time? The season under McNeil was the worst one I can remember, the whole club appeared to be in intensive care due to the lack of investment and piss poor managerial appointments by Herbert. I think if we hadn't been promoted at the first attempt we would've continued the downward spiral. The football under GT wasn't great especially when you consider he signed players like Steve Sims and David Hunt but he achieved his aim in getting us back up. I don't think there were too many other candidates that would've done that. One final point - how difficult was it watching Andy Gray during the relegation season? Not a great way to be remembered in a Villa shirt....

Hmmm, I wouldn't say he was overrated, as I never rated him at all. I recall everyone pretty much blamed him for us not winning the league the year we signed him. I thought he was a carthorse, and he did nothing to change my mind. The only good thing about him was he his name fitted in at the end of one of my favourite Villa songs to sing when pissed up in the pub! Alot of money with very little return though. As good as GT was for us during his first spell as a manager, it still puzzles me that we signed Cascarino rather than his strike partner at the time.

try here Are we signing Torres then?

He'd fit in with their anti football philosophy. Perfect match for Allardyce

Tommy Johnson and Tony Cascarino.

Top post Blandy. Sid was a joy to watch, and a gentleman too. We should name a stand after him and not after the bloke who lined his owned pockets.

Malmaisson often have deals on so worth a look.

We need more players with final product now. Bolasie was my call in the Summer window. Everyone raves about Zaha but for me Bolasie is the better talent. Would love to see him in a Villa shirt. A couple of Palace season ticket holders that work with me have been saying for the last 2 seasons that Bolasie is far better than Zaha. It would need big money to tempt them to sell.

That jug eared tosser Lineker wouldn't have played for England had Gary Shaw not retired through injury. I bet the t*** wouldn't make the same statement had it been against Everton.

Predicted a Desmond before the game. Great first half and good to see Weimann grab a goal. Redknapp highlighted how well he played in negating Gerrard first half - hopefully some of his critics will cut him some slack. Just hope Gabby is ok for the Boggies. Had he stayed on the pitch we would be talking about a victory now. I thought KEA done ok first half, the midfield was competent. Voted Vlaar but I think all the lads deserve credit tonight.

Yes to Frimpong if he's a freebie.

By a country mile. Ditto, ditto - no-one else comes close I doubt there'll ever be a better midfielder at Villa. Cowans was that good. Cropley had the makings of becoming a star before he broke his leg against the Boggies.

Hopefully Anelka will be available to play against us as he is way past his best and I'd rather we faced him than their other striking options. No need for any disciplinary action just yet.....

Predicted a Desmond for the Arsenal game and think we'll get one tomorrow with Benteke and Gabby scoring.

Yes I was thinking he might play LM to offer a little more protection to Luna/Bennett

Good signing. 2 down, 2 more signings please Lambo

Savage is a t**t. I couldn't give a flying f*** about his opinion.

If it's a loan then it means Okore won't need to be rushed back and we can cope with the inevitable injuries and suspensions.

Faulkner admitted in his interview with Tom Dross that January was a bad time to buy so I suspect this is why the signings are short gap loans rather than permanent deals. I'm okay with this in principle if it means we buy better in the summer. I'd be royally pissed off if the sum total of our ambition in August are the likes of Grant Holt and Scott Dann.
