We could afford Hoolahan if we wanted him, we would not have been in for him in January otherwise.

Any reason why or just a feeling?

The thin strip that is blue I'd have claret and the collar that blue.

I personally just dont like the collar being predominantly Claret.

As I said I do not for one minute believe Macron are giving us a shed load of money. I believe we went with them because they're cheap. I believe Nike gave us the boot because they didn't want to be associated with a club in decline. They want to be associated with clubs at the top but with Lerner actively downgrading the club over the last 4 years who could blame them? Irrespective of that Villa should be playing in a classy kit, not a kit from a trashy manufacturer who are known from creating kits for non league clubs on the cheap. I'm just surprised so many fans have fallen for it. Then again it took till just last season for most of them to realise the "young and hungry" stunt was a lie and the club was actively being downgraded by Randy Lerner. So there are plenty of nike and addidas kits in non league football too does that make them trashy too. Whether you want to believe it or not Macron offrred us more to make our kits than any other manufacturer, and they have done a decent job. This years kit is a bit of a miss in my eyes but the last 2 were some of the nicest for years.

So you would be happy if we had to sell Benteke with the loss of this extra revenue just to get a Addidas or Nike to make our kits when there is nothing wrong with the kits we have been getting of macron.

yes, lets just give away the few million they give us a year and flog a few more players. But at least we will be in a classy Addidas template kit.

Wan't expecting Rollins to be the one that eventually turned. Regarding Bryan and the title, are WWE afraid of taking it away even though he is injuryed?

They are just pictures from Delphino and the mock ups from lmarsha off of here.

Stole for FB.

Are we sure this isn't another con job like the Indian one?

Because he won't get better offers anywhere else, and in our current situation any contract is a sign of trust. He needs a kick in the back to get him going again. A short contract is the best way to do that. If he starts to perform again, open new negotiations early. You are deluded if you think that. If Albrighton can get a 40k a week and a 4 year contract then Gabby would easily be able to get more if not the same.

Why would he even consider accepting a one year extension at the age of 27?

We would wouldn't actually get that much for the naming rights - sure its big headline figure - like say £80m - but these deals are usually over 10 years ......so £8m a year.........not going to catapault us into CL is it ? 8-10 million a year. That a quality player every season. Would have paid Barrys and Lukakas loan deals this season. Yes it wont catapult us into CL but it will make us compete with top 6-8 teams which i stated. This. I wouldn't want the ground re branded but an extra 8 million pounds a season is a lot of money to a team like us and would help an awful lot in making us more competitive. It would help - but its not game changing IMO It wouldn't have us challenging for the top 4 but would definitely put us in contention for the Europa League places.

He is 15 years of age, plays in midfield and has Bosnian roots despite playing for the Austrian youth side. #itk

Best manager since saunders eh richard? yes he is and pity he was not afforded the monetary tools to show it What like having the 8th highest wage bill in the league and only finishing 15th?

When were these numerous chances?

He is probably not enough of a real man for Lambert.

Shocking!

Superb Marc!

He was at his pomp running the channels and turning the opposition's full back inside out on the counter. Now we don't seem to use him in that manner anymore he is always dropping deeper and he doesn't quite have the close control capable to not lose the ball all the time in the more crowded areas of the pitch. If he would be willing to take a wage cut he could still be useful for us, but as our highest earner....

NET spend? In terms of his complete outlay before he eventually sells up? Yes.

I can't see that after all the shit that was said after he movedbto us.

Lambert's Norwich played like Brazil. Hahahahahahahahahaha. They played more long balls than us that season and that was also when Mr.Negative was here.
