Just got my tickets at the Bradford office, sat in party of 50 Bradford fans.

Pray for Petrov T shirt under my coat.

Doing the 'Bradford 11' knowledge on their website.

Villa back room staff are there, spotted claret and blue kits being taken off a van.

Shocked to see such a defensive approach. If I'm wrong, then hats off to Mcleish.

A bench of Nzog, Bannan, Delph and Ireland - must be a little more creativity there surely.

I reckon a back 6 - the usual 4 plus Carlos and Heskey, Herd sweeping up in Midfield. Gabby wide right to tempt away some players, Bent wide left to pick up another couple of markers. This leaves Petrov to show off his newly found super pace and sprint at them for 90 mins.

4-0 to Villa - Three 60 yard screamers from Petrov and a last minute header from Given. You heard it here.

Try the above, if nothing is given as discount / compensation, get some negative reviews written. If they have any website profiles / Twitter pages etc track them down.

Can be quite satisfying and could be used as your bargaining tool before writing anything about them.

I appreciate it's not going to sort out the photo issues you mentioned though. Worth speaking to all the guests to see if they have any good ones that you can use.

What do Apple and Steve Mclaren have in common - neither of them have Jobs.

There was also a doctor in Leeds, called Dr D'Eath, based in Harehills in the 90's, not sure if he still lives but honestly true !

My Mum went to school with Catherine Wheel.

I'm sure Peter File has to exist too.

Man came up to me this morning and said, "can you tell me what you call a person that comes from Corsica ?'

'Corsican' - I replied.

Man City have had a bid for Mr Messi accepted, once this goes through, they're expecting to target Mr Happy, Mr Grumpy and Mr Tickle

I won a competition on radio WM to play squash with Jonah Barrington and to sit in and be interviewed on the Saturday afternoon football show. I was one of the first ever people to play on the perspex court at the NEC.

I was also on the Herald of Free Enterprise, the journey before someone left the bloody doors open !

I saw Martin Keown's and Neale Coopers debut for Villa at Burton Albion - we lost after a drab 90 mins and penalties, just awful.

Also just seen this hilarious news on the bbc...

Birmingham have failed in a bid to sign midfielder Patrick Vieira, 33, from Inter Milan.

My favourite book of all time has to be the 'History of Glue' - I couldn't put it down !

Thanks to Tim Vine for that one.......

My local vicar has just been attacked by having domestos poured all over him, fortunately they arrested a local man, who's now been charged with a bleach of the priest !

Kaiser Chiefs for me - just my anti Leeds blood

Here's a good one.

If you wear special glasses with inverted lenses to make everytihng appear upside down, after a period of time, your eyes will automatically switch, so that things seem normal.

If you then take the glasses off, everything is upside down and will take another length of time for your eyes to revert to their original view.

Try it, it really doea work, but not advisable in the workplace as it's pretty dangerous. You may also look like a total bell end !

I was in a bar in Gibraltar and thought I'd order a glass of scotch,

'Do you want it on the rocks', asked the barman ?

'No thanks, I'll have it over here' !

'So you want it neat ?', he replied

'Yes, please'

'Well tuck your shirt in'

scraping the barrel now.....

Man goes into a fish and chip shop and orders a portion of fish and chips. He gets served and leaves, only to come back 2 minutes later.

'Excuse me, dont mean to be rude' but was that fish cooked ?', he says to the owner,

'Why ?' replies the owner

'Because it's eaten all of my bloody chips !'

Don't know what anyone thinks, but I've still got fond memories of Joey Gudjonsson - the short time we had him.

Tough tackling, hard shooting, good workrate - under MON I really think he could blossom. He's still only 26 and has travelled across the continent, never really settling, Spain, Iceland, Holland and UK.

With some careful guidance, he's got 2 years on Gav and could add a similar strength with quite similar qualities.

Nobody ever won anything without a nutter in the team, remember the sending off vs SHA with Dion ?

Am I missing something here ?
