No the chants are awful.

I would moan if it was a loan deal. I don't see the point in it. We have young strikers that need games so i wouldn't see the point helping out a player and another club while our players have no chance to develop. What if he scores 15-20 goals for us? Still no point?

Good to know he's on his way out. Had a good first season but since then his weaknesses have been highlighted with every passing (hoofing) game.

Some highlights here for those who are interested. Absolutely horrible music and a very shaky camera but you get to see Delfouneso's beautiful finish in the end. Really well taken by him.

Agree. We can do better than him, plus he's thirty and on relatively high wages.

Well then in that case almost any liar can just be waved aside as merely "deluded". McLeish knew full well what was going on. He's a liar. I think it's difficult to tell whether he's just a barefaced liar or highly delusional. I think it's just a personal point of view. Some people will believe that he's a liar and some that he's delusional. Who's to say who's right here? And in the end does it matter? He's gone and we have some fantastic times (hopefully) coming up at this great club. One thing we Villa fans can agree on is that McLeish is a terrible manager and that last season and everything that connects him to the club is a black period for us as a club.

I don't think he's nasty. Just incredibly naive and delusional. I genuinely think he believes the crap he says.

The bible that is Football Manager has his acceleration at 14 and pace at 13. His agility is 10 though (out of 20 for those who don't know). Not that bad I guess. Having made this ridiculous post now it's gonna turn out that it wasn't him in that picture!

Third? Yep. Holman and El Ahmadi Holman came from AZ Alkmaar.

Lets not turn this into another OGS fiasco just yet!

Could well be Ron Vlaar from looking at pics of him via google. I'm liking this Eredivisie invasion at Villa Park.

I know something about love.

Portugal equalize and now they are through! This is going to be a very interesting night.

Yes Krohn-Delhi scores for Denmark! Come on you Danes!

First reaction is that it looks cheap. Not impressed but maybe it's just the angle or something.

Who the hell is this Martin Laursen you all speak of?

Exactly and why the hell would Laursen wan't to coach at a club in the Third Division?

Out of the blue I know but Laursen to Swansea anyone?

Never been impressed with him. Perhaps it's time to admit that he just can't cut it at this level and sell him.

Fantastic result for Denmark. Worth it just to see Robben, van Bommel and van Persie losing.

He really is terrible, isn't he?

Alan Hutton or Stephen Warnock. Or Hitler.

We **** deserve this after the shit we've been through, don't we? Fantastic appointment by Randy and Faulkner. After last seasons hell I was scared that the club was going to get ruined but this is the beginning of a new era at Villa Park. How buzzing will the ground be for our first game next season?! I'm even more excited after Richard's news about the exciting summer ahead. Let the good times roll on!

I don't know who that person is but it's not VT's Richard!

This isn't close to be done IMO. Haven't we learned anything from the OGS story?
