Zatman Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 Andy Marshall to Villa as a 3rd choice keeper was hilarious for the reactions. The posts from people online throwing a tantrum thinking he was going to play ahead if Friedel and Guzan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some have already added bits but yeah, playing in the third tier of Russian football now (three wins out of fifteen matches last season before it was cut short). Almost had to declare bankruptcy last year. Easy to forget that Willian played for them for a short while, too. Another big transfer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This one sprung to mind for me. I remember waking up and reading it online and genuinely thinking it was a mistake! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I remember they were really shit for quite a while! It was so dodgy though. They were getting linked with all sorts of huge clubs and then ended up at West Ham.

If I remember only Tevez started and Mascherano was never really wanted when they had Reo Coker I think was a quote from either Pardew or Curbishley stating they didnt know who Mascherano was before he signed 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everybody knew who they were. So I can only assume it must have been Pardew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure I read a rumour saying he was in gambling debt and needed the signing on bonus from us to pay it I was quite upset about that one. I thought Nobby on the wing giving the supply to Baros would push us to be a top 6 team. Oh deary me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
