JulieB Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Cheers for clearing that up Diehard/Bicks That journo (supposedly) still reckons behind closed doors Wigan & Villa have reached an agreement. CAUTION though this could be tosh... so Don't shoot me for daring to post this... but I have heard that Villa insist on media blackouts whilst transfer negotiations go on KKFootball1 @KKFootball1 @ASTVIL123 Villa don't like to disclose information unless it's more or less done. He could still reject personal terms. KKFootball1 KKFootball @ASTVIL123 Not if he (Whelan) knows noone else is interested. Avfc ask him to keep quiet or they pull out. Wigan then left with unhappy player. #avfc KKFootball1 KKFootball Bellamy to #avfc is not true. Avfc will not pay 85k a week. #avfc #mcfc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diehardvillan Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 I read that last night Julie...I don't believe that to be honest. But like you say, caution...It is tosh I reckon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOF Posted July 22, 2011 Moderator Share Posted July 22, 2011 Ahh, kkfootball. I believe my bullshitometer registered a '20' out of 10 for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JulieB Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Ahh, kkfootball. I believe my bullshitometer registered a '20' out of 10 for him. He's promised to lock himself in a room for 3 days and play Duran Duran records non stop...if Zog isn't ours in the next few weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrentVilla Posted July 22, 2011 Moderator Share Posted July 22, 2011 Ahh, kkfootball. I believe my bullshitometer registered a '20' out of 10 for him. He's promised to lock himself in a room for 3 days and play Duran Duran records non stop...if Zog isn't ours in the next few weeks. So basically a normal week in the life of kkfootball. I really don't understand why people buy this crap from nobodies on Twitter. Anyone could set up a Twitter account and post stuff about proposed transfers all over the press saying they are close and "next few days..." Its bollocks, its not ITK its educated guesses at best, some not even that educated. Its utter tripe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonLax Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 I am pretty sure we will sign him as well. Mostly becasue he's our number 1 target and there are no other clubs in for him. You don't need to be ITK to think that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ender4 Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 villa never do anything easy... every summer it's same... one transfer that runs, runs, runs. hardly. its only been ongoing for about 3 weeks. its been pretty quick so far to get us to this stage. now if you want a proper long-running transfer, Fabregas to Barcelona has been ongoing for 4 YEARS.

ender4 Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Can we just agree on £9.5m and announce the fee an undisclosed. Than Whelan can blab to the press how he got what he thought was a good price for Zog and we can release a statement saying me paid a fair price in our eyes. Then everyone's happy. No, because we think £9m is a fair price. Why should we pay 500,000 pounds more that what we think is fair, and that the seller (Whelan) also really knows is fair.

JulieB Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Just listened to interview on OS with McLeish & he said players are flying out on Saturday, didn't say HE was though. Hopefully he'll be staying a couple more days to sort out "the one quality transfer" before he has another look at the squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu_The_Villan Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 now if you want a proper long-running transfer, Fabregas to Barcelona has been ongoing for 4 YEARS. To be fair though, that is to Arsenals credit. Had Fabregas been a Villa player he would have been out the door quicker than lager turns to piss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnlyOne Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Stu, I thought you said N'Zogbia will be definitely signed this week? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu_The_Villan Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 I never said definitely mate. I have no inside info on this one, just a hunch i had. I obviously hadnt taken into account Whelan throwing a wobbly. Saying that, i still think it will be done this week/early next week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brittain22 Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 I'll be gutted if we miss out on this one. This is so straight forward it's untrue. We know how much they want, we've got the money, the player wants to come, We have a gaping left hand side hole. I understand negotiating but honestly does any not think it would be more beneficial to have the signing on the plane than play hard ball over £1m?

Morpheus Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 I understand negotiating but honestly does any not think it would be more beneficial to have the signing on the plane than play hard ball over £1m? Yes. Definitely. Especially if Everton sell to Arsenal in the next few days! From being very positive about N'Zogbia coming to us i'm now ready to throw darts at our board.
