hehe, with all this talk of take overs and the like this brought a smile to my face. thanks for that one.

saha on loan for 1 year from the mancs? it seems they are wanting him to go out on loan for a year. if this IS the case then a cheeky 6 million bid should be tempting to fergie ( not the fit bird from black eyed peas but the dour faced scottish tit who miss manages manc ure)

technically it is what ever people will pay for it, on the other hand we have someone in his 80's who doesnt need the money. i think he will only sell to who he thinks would be right for villa, even if it meant getting less money than someone he thought would not be good for the club. but 60-80 million is still a snip.

no van bommel then, he is off to barca

ashton needs to be bought quick, otherwise i can see either chelski or arse buying him and loaning him to norwich for the season and then having him in the starting line up once another years experience. parker is a must buy, he can play most places and is a david platt sort of player malbranque im not sure about, he does do some great things but how many midfielders have we already got and bearing in mind berson is ' only for certain games and passes the ball too much' can you see d'ol buying another? yakubu or owen would be the last choice, i think the 20 million newcastle thing is all rubbish, the money isnt as free flowing as it once was. so i think owen could be got for 8 to 10 million ( alledgedly 1/2 our budget although no numbers have been put forward officially by the board) either would be worth it as they can both produce their own goals from little. oh and carlton cole?? no thank you.

BB Kev Gage owns my local pub now - see him quite often ahhh thats right, i remember about 10 months ago we had this one. i thought kevin gage was awesome, lots more skill than credited for. he was the mastermind behind the 6-2 win at villa park against everton ( ok so sid got 2 goals but kev started it with a move involving ormonroyd)( i think, it was so long ago) get him a drink for me will you drat

voted for A_N OTHER, kevin gage was one of my faves during the taylor years, him and shaun teale man of steal.

well if villa have contacted liver poo over baros which seems true, then i presume we would have to pay money for him of at least 2 million, so im guessing that we have atleast 2 million left. with the knuckle draggers buying peskey it has placed pressure on ellis to deliver a couple big name players ( not the huge names but big names) so i dont for one minute hold the same negative view when it concerns money for players. i would say that there is another 5-6 million left for players as this would be the money that we got for the possition in the league. it wont have escaped dougs attention that when we climbed the table we appeared on more live games than were planned which also meant more money and as DOL had only bought 3 players was being given a dry run before a large amount of money was made available.

it is the weekend, even football managers have time off work. i would say the next signing will be next thursday at the earliest, that gives players time to sign, medicals, contracts and the rest of the crap that goes with signing a player nowdays. oh and i still think he may go for matteo

that would be the treble then?? :wink: :wink: :wink:

about £2.50 if we do qualify as doug will say that obviosly D'OL doesnt need the money as we qualified for europe with out spending any.
