First laugh today. And that's despite being in the jantransrumour-thread before I read it. Classy.

Is it the VTC in bad jokes today, or what? :? I won't try to win that. But he would be a good signing. Even though that position isn't the most urgent to fill you don't say no to one of the PL's best in his position. But the rumours probably comes from VT:ers wishing mind in this thread anyway. So here we go.

Dopn't know too much about actual pirates but I went for William Kidd. Isn't he the one with that legendary huge treasure that every treasure-hunter wants to find at that they think is in the that hole on an island outside the canadian coast? The hole that is amazingly deep. Him anyway.

I've got a feeling that if we sign Keane he'll get a similar Villa-career as Deano had. Just got that feeling. Would be so great.

Do you really think that the other teams strikers are that bad that we have to sign theb PL's most scorer of own goals to give them a chance to score on us? :shock: Not in a million years.

*speachless* Actually, I think a tear was on it's way. So this is how it feels to travel from hell to heaven. Pleasant journey I must say. As all the others have said, thank you so very much for all you've done for us and please feel so welcome to this site. Your and Randy are already true legends in thsi clubs great History, I'd say. Some advices and a request: Don't mind Rantin_Robs finger, he's just forgot that he has nine others. If the same man offers you to be on his mailing list then don't! You'll never be the same again. :wink: And, hm, I'm going to VP saturday 25th of november to see my first Villa-game at Villa Park so I would be very happy if you and mr Lerner could be in Birmingham at that very day so I can get the chance to cheer you during the game and offer you that pint after the game. And this last one was both serious and not. To get really serious again, well, thank you so much again and keep the good work up. You've already done more good to this club than the old man did in all his years at the helm. And if you can doas good as he did bad I guess we can all put our bets on who's to be champions of Europe for about 10 years ahead. Pelle

Wouldn't mind Smith. Think he's a really good player and would suit in the attack. He's a nasty tw@t too which we really need.

Oh f**k! I'm agreeing with that old git again. Izzy for me. Even though it reminds me a bit too much about that old guitar-wannabee...

I don't know. I mean, drawing away to Chelsea and Arsenal IMO is overachieving. Drawing at home to Fulham is not. And some results are pretty much what we could expect for. Still, 7th could be considered overachieving. Unbeaten is. So, I'm pretty much on the fence. Let's just say we've been doing pretty good so far this season. I'll tell you come may what I really think.

he's a hard working mother **** as well ps - dont give a shit what mr steve 'up my own arse' mclaren thinks of him anyway Agreed. Even though he's not as good as he once was, but still very good IMO. One of my favourite players actually and I'd love to see him at Villa just because of that. Would be my absolute favourite signing ever.

How surrealistic would it be to see no 23 BECKHAM in a Villa-shirt on the pitch? To me it would be harder to understand than both Randy and MON. Not that he would be better for us than any of them are, but if we signed him now in january that would really show we mean business and would easily be the biggest star we ever have signed. Not the best, but the biggest. That would turn the attention of the last few not looking our way to us. Once and for all. Still doubt it'll happen, though.

Didn't they lose or at least only managed a draw at home to Blackburn or another sh**e team? :? Thanks DDID. Can't remember that game, though. :oops: But I believe you.

I've only got my ordinary optimistic hat on so I go for a draw. When was the last time we beat Pool at Anfield, BTW?

i 100% agree. both agbonlahor and angel are good with their heads. and we all know what beck's crossing is like 8) Double-agreed. Doubt he'll come here, though. Think his wages will be too high. Imagine how many clubs will be in for him now at that price. Newcastle anyone? :?

I don't. They almost never play the music I like anyway. So I'll never get to hear new music. Maybe that's why I'm so small-minded when it comes to music... :? Ah well, still don't have one. Mis it on the work though. Guess I'll have to get a small one...

I'm quietly hoping we go for him. He wants back into the England squad. Playing in England would achieve that in my, and other peoples, opinion. We're on the up and could pay him. Would be the 'signature signing' we needed to announce our return to the big time too. I don't think it's that far fetched although I have been delusional before :? If he wants to play for England he surely shouldn't come to us. He's destined for that other Villa who the ginger loves. You know the only mediocre team outside London and "the big 4" who have some players in the english squads

True or not, it's always nice to be limnked to almost everybody instead of just players like Bakke on a free.

How old is this Maloney? Think it's been said earlier in this thread but, well, I ain't got time to check through the pages. If his contract is out in the summer do you think we'll buy him pretty cheap in january or sign him for a free come summer? I'd want him ASAP but of course the cheaper the better. IF we sign him at all, of course.

Robbie Keane anyone? Would take him without a millisecond of hesitation. And he was on the bench yesterday, so who knows?

Sidwell has been mentioned a couple of times but from what I saw yesterday I don't think he's good enough. I know it's a bit harsh from me to judge him from one game but he didn't look that good. Yes, good enough for a midtable team or newcomers but still not good enough for the top and I hope that's where we aim. And this is not a personnel dig at you, Sam, just an opinion and your were the last post about him and that's why I chose that one.

About Saviola I still think that Barcelona might sign a new player in january and that might make Saviola pretty mad and finally want to quit them. Just a thought. As for Johnson I think you're right. And TBH I don't really rate him. Don't think he's really good enough, but then again I haven't seen him that much this season so I kight be very wrong.

yep, and he's going to be in the England squad instead of Barry... Not if he came here... :? Just saw his goal before. Is he any good really?

What about that Leighton Baines from Wigan? With that shot he could replace Hitz.

Bah, I wouldn't want a king of nothing as a fan. Apart from that I've always liked this guy. He's making more sense in his writing here than a few Villa-fans.

TBH it's sounds a little like FM to me. But why not?
