Si.

Plus Mcleish said last year about having funds available for the summer. I reckon Dandy Randy has said heres a decent budget for the summer if you join... and PL is finding the bargains while he can... Surely this season so far is one of the lowest we've spent in years ? Even less than AMC ? There has to be more to come.

Agreed

I wish people would just ignore CI's posts if they don't like them.

I'm more bored of reading childish, sarcastic responses to CI than I am of reading his daft posts. At least he's trying to contribute to the discussion, irrespective of how surreal his opinion may appear to be.

:!:

Agreed!

If he were to score us 15 and get us 10 assists I'd be happy tbh.

I think all of us would! Has he scored/assisted that many before in the Prem?

I reckon Paul Lambert has got money to spend, but he's tricked people into thinking we have a 'sell to buy' policy.

Collins was on his way out, the Vlaar deal was 99% complete, and then I reckon he chose to wait to sell Collins before Vlaar was brought in.

Now other teams think we have no money, so when we come to buy someone, they wont try to get more and more money out of us.

I think your over-thinking Rob

Fletcher? Meh..Typical MON signing tbh. Will probs be at the Stadium Of Shite next season.

What about Carl fletcher from harchester utd

Fixed

It'll be no easier or harder for the top teams and no the season won't start off a shambles.

What IS a first for the PL is that there is no club beginning with the letter 'B'. All my own work that

You have too much time on your hands Bri

I would have like to have seen Heskey and Bent upfront to see how that would have worked. Too late now

:shock:

Has a Brazilian ever played for Villa? I don't think one has.

Villa's then captain Billy Walker on Pongo;

There were no rules for Pongo. Nobody knew what time he would turn up for training—ten o'clock, eleven o'clock, twelve o'clock, it made no odds. Nobody on the staff could do anything with him although I think I can claim, as the captain in his days, to be the only person able to handle him. He was a funny lad indeed. We started the weeks training on Tuesday mornings and every Tuesday he followed a habit which he could never break. He would go round all the refreshment bars on the ground and finish off the lemonade customers, storing the remains in the bottles! Then he would start a little of his training—but that seldom lasted very long.

The Holte End pre-roof & seats.

Amazing.

Related to VT but couldnt be bothered to start a thread; I cant believe Thomas "Pongo" Waring is yet to be inducted into the Villa hall of fame. Surely next year? Perhaps the greatest Villa striker ever, his ashes where even scatered in the goal infront of the Holte!

You should start a campaign

Maybe the bench could do with strengthening tbh.... but a good side imo

MON being MON, he will go back to his chairman and demand the bid is increased to £12m and wages of 65k a week

Thank F@ck he's no longer with us

Also this

To be honest if lambert thinks he will work in our squad then go for it. I would prefer Guidetti, but have 100% confidence in Lambert.

This

Ahh right now I've seen them! I don't think that will be the final squad numbers though for some reason. Noramlly there is an announcement on the OS and I think they'll be put out like that.

Yeah, I wouldnt think too much into the current squad numbers on the OS.

I said about two weeks ago we haven't done enough in the market and time is running out

Two weeks on Nothing and injuries are mounting !

As soon as Lambert gets back he needs to get a wiggle on or we will be bare bones again

time running out?

27 days to first match

40 days until transfer window shuts

I suppose you've already got your Christmas shopping done as it's only around the corner.

Rumours suggesting Aston Villa have made an approach for Lyon and France striker Bafetimbi Gomis. ‪#AVFC‬

Did anybody see that pig flying over B6 this afternoon?

He says it's 'some way off'

So far from a done deal then

I dunno about you lot but im hoping for a Dunne deal

inzaghi to watford be brilliant and also would probably be disastrous. He is so small in frame he would be kicked lumps out of in Championship by "footballers" like Chris Morgan

Rumors of him going to Reading now. Would love to see him in the Prem!

I love it, Ajax v Feyenoord on a Villa site. Only on VT, this why I love this site.

Horrific off-topicness though. Losing your touch Mods

You're right, although the real topic was Vlaar, it wasn't about his Villa move, which it should be about.

By the way, I'm counting on your support for F when it comes to this rivalry.

After all, you've enjoyed playing on our pitch in the past...

Shaw, Williams, prepared to venture down the left. There's a good ball in for Tony Morley. Oh, it must be and it is! It's Peter Withe.

Feyenoord: Adiyiah has been transferred for the gazillionth time, now to Arsenal Kyiv
