Popular Post HeyAnty Posted January 14, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted January 14, 2014 I know i'll probably get abuse for saying this, but the more i think about this loan signing, i think its a really good bit of business. Lambert can get the best out of Holt and Holt is really good in around the box playing 1-2's etc. Just because Wigan cant get the best out of him doesnt mean Lambert cant. Plus... and on a bigger positive, him and betekke up front will be a real handful also letting Gabby to be freed up to play on the left middle. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smetrov Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 Wigan's boss has confirmed that he's Villa bound. Time to put the negativity behind us and get behind our new player, i suppose. Yes - its finally happening ! - Hope its permanent...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raver50032 Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 Paul Kendrick @PKendrickWIG3m Grant Holt currently at Villa Park for his medical and to discuss personal terms. #wafc #avfc His medical should be interesting, I can imagine the digital scales now: "One at a time please" God forbid there is one of those running 'bleep' tests... I f**king hated that at skool... Welcome, Sir Grant of Holte... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Houlston Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 (edited) You know its a shit signing when there are very few others that you can actually try and argue that might be worse, Edited January 14, 2014 by Houlston Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StefanAVFC Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 I think looking at this signing as either 'good' or 'bad' is incredibly lazy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kwan Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 I'm a little hungover and I might have done one too many Holt impressions by treating to eat the whole of KFC last night but I've calmed down a bit. If I squint my eyes and tilt my head and the wind is just right, I can sort of see the rationale BUT (and this is a J. Lo sized butt) only of he's used a as an occasional sub or if Benteke goes down. If he and Benteke start together, I'll have something I hate more than our "5-3-2" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 Well we signed another 30+ striker with an even more dubious skill set from Wigan in the January window some years ago, if only that had been a temporary signing 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not disagreeing there. Just pointing out it makes sense, and especially as it is short term. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
