That should change a few opinions on him. People were quick to judge and jump on him for apparently going back to France. Good news that he’s still in the UK tied up at the Belfry with a pen in his mouth. Edited August 31, 2018 by villan-scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KJT123 Posted August 31, 2018 Author Share Posted August 31, 2018 INFO France Bleu: Harold #Moukoudi will not go to Aston Villa! Defender Havrais finally rejected the (important) offer of the English and informed President Vincent Volpe of his decision. For the time being, the sergeant remains Havrais... + info to come #Havre #HAC #Mercato Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodders Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 (edited) shit, does that mean elphick stays? perfectly understandable on his part. I presume he saw tapes of our incoherent attempt to play Edited August 31, 2018 by Rodders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Djemba_Villan Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 (edited) Predictable... ’sleeping on it’ my arse. Sounds like agent speak for ‘not enough zeros’ ah well. I’d never heard of him before we were linked so it’s hard to be distraught. Edited August 31, 2018 by Djemba_Villan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let’s see what the day brings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dudevillaisnice Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 Joe Bryan all over again, Elphick deal should be off if that is the case as it would be ridiculous loaning him out without cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if we signed him now it would probably be October before he's ready to play. As much as I would have liked to see him here again this season, I don't think it's going to happen. I'd normally agree but JT is a rare breed, unbelievably fit for his advanced years. I'd have him back in a pay as you play capacity, not sure he'd go for it though when he can earn silly money in China or the states. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As Brian Clough said "once you the player in the room - he doesn't leave until he is signed up" - Once he leaves and wants time to think (especially this close to deadline) then its 90% not happening. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But match fitness is a whole other ball game. A 37 year old won't be able to slot straight back into the first team having not played a game in 4 months. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest av1 Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 Don't worry lads, it's Birmingham on a friday afternoon, he probably couldn't get to Wolverhampton by 5pm let alone Lyon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
