Ok ok here goes, more guff.

Transfer rumourss‏@Transfer_prem

James Milner linked with a return to Villa Park ‪#avfc‬ ‪#mcfc‬

Ooops, sorry wrong thread!

Seen Kenwyne Jones being touted around on that Simontee's twitter feed. Noooo thank you.

James Nursey‏@JamesNursey

Early feedback on Lambert's reign at #AVFC is v strict and a disciplinarian. Think what club need to shake it up. Plenty of changes ahead.

Exactly what we need. All very promising at the moment.

Only on £11k a week though according that link, and as we've always been told it's not the fees that are a problem it's the inkeeping with the wage bill. Wouldn't break the structure by any means.

So next week we're supposed to be seeing Snodgrass, Ramis & Brahimi arrive, according to twitter. IF that is the case, it'll be another good week for the Villa. This has been a very refreshing week, not one to get ahead of myself but renewed optimism is returning more and more.

ITK legend strikes again:

Dave Beeston‏@mini_beest

I'm in the understanding Brahimi is wanted by Villa BUT I also know that other clubs are after him too & wants to talk to them...But tbh I'd expect Brahimi to be a Villa player v soon.

That's that then. In the bag

The ever reliable mini beest. According to him we were signing David Villa in January! No joke.

Not at all surprised by that. Loves jumping on any rumour going and making himself look like he's in the middle of the story. Priceless at times.

Big fan of Herd, still baffles me how he didn't win any club awards at the end of the season, especially young player. Think he could compliment El Ahmadi well in midfield, would give the front 4 more freedom to play their attacking football.

**** KNEW IT!

?

Timothy Abraham ‏@TimothyAbraham

Karim El Ahmadi should rubberstamp his move to #AVFC early next week. Exact fee not yet agreed but willingness to get the deal done.

Timothy Abraham ‏@TimothyAbraham

Lambert said El Ahmadi is a player who "could definitely improve the squad" and "be an imporant player for us in central midfield" #AVFC.

Lambert confirms it too;

James Nursey ‏@JamesNursey

#AVFC negotiations on-going with Feyenoord but Lambert says : "he could be an important player for us in central midfield. We are hopeful."

'James Nursey ‏@JamesNursey

Checked on Lambert compensation row latest between PL, #NCFC & #AVFC . Told still in hands of lawyers. Potential saga methinks'

LOL can see the comparison. Dying to come across as an ITK.

Put this in the rumour thread but may aswell drop it in here too.

That Mini_Beest fella on twitter has RT'd one of 'them' accounts saying Naughton will make a permanent move to the Villa, £4.5million. Shrugs. He re-tweets anything that boy.

Hahahahahahahaha...

It's all about the confidennnce

I like both. After the leak earlier i've changed my mind a few times but now seeing the players wearing it and watching the videos, big fan of both kits. More so the away one, would be my preferred choice if I could only buy one.

Fixtures next. After that, incomings please RL, PF & PL

Very short and sweet. But, very direct and focussed. I'll take that.

Lerner quotes coming out now. Not copy and pasting cos someone is doing that right now as I type lol

Just covered the torch carrying on SSN, no mention of God but made time to show Jedward. Pricks. Jedward too.

Delighted.

What a refreshing change, considering all the abuse RL & PF received based on nothing, I hope they get some credit if it all comes off ok...

Just comical.

One potentially good decision doesn't make up for two years of bad ones or mean the last two years didn't happen.

I get the impression VillaForever was referring only to the last couple of weeks. Yes they royally ballsed up the last 2 appointments and highly deserved the flack they received. That's made everyone nervous and edgy this time around, but some of the drivel being thrown around at both RL & PF, especially in the last week, has been over the top.

That about right, VF1970?

Just to be clear then, they didn't accept his resignation?

Dale Johnson ‏@dalejohnsonESPN

Dave Whelan: Roberto Martinez pledges future to Wigan Athletic. Had concerns about working under director of football. #avfc #wafc #lfc

Didn't anyone tell him we don't have a director of football.

Who's to say he was our no.1 choice?

So looks like it's down to Lambert, Poyet, Rafa, who really knows that to be fair. Have been wanting Lambert since Houllier so if it does happen i'll be more than happy.

Well that's Rodgers in at Liverpool.
