Go get yourself a mug of cofee and get back to me and my takeover rumour remember i love a good rumour me
No never heard owt about that one like, apparently though that was the main reason behind the spineless welsh faggot leaving Sunderland he had a big liking for Bolivian marching powder.
ST has done well since he has got back in the side, I feel at home Whitley & Robinson isnt the gig, I wouldnt like Souey playing Faye & Butt @ home from the start.
Aye should defo be more attacking at home meaning one of them two moving aside but in all fairness we cannot grumble that midfield pairing has got us 3 points clear with 10 games to go.
I wish but in all seriousness apparently there is something in the pipeline, why do you think our glorious leader bought all those shares ? to sell them all of course, he has lost interest and wants out hence the fact he never attends games anymore, could be more in the press in a few week if the rumours are to be believed
That is not the only reason though, he has lost interest and has had bad health i think he realises it is time to pass the baton on to other parties, he will probably sell the club for around 6-7 million to fresh investors.
I think that is harsh of Doug. He backed to John Gregory to the hilt with cash. PEOPLE HAVE SHORT MEMORIES
Look who it was posted by though, he knows fuck all, ignore him and with any luck he will go back to the gutter he crawled out of
Villa have become 2nd best team in brum due to Ellis not splashing out, He refused to give them 200k to improve training ground.. how much has Gregory spent ??? Not much compared to other prem teams, he is tight
He spent a canny bit 1998 IN Alan Thompson (Bolton, £4.5m) Fabio Ferraresi (Cesena, free) Paul Merson (Middlesbrough, £6.75m) Steve Watson (Newcastle, £4m) Dion Dublin (Coventry, £5.75m) David Unsworth (West Ham United, £3m) 1999 IN Peter Enckelman (TPS Turku, £200,000) Mark Delaney (Cardiff, £250,000) Steve Stone (Nottingham Forest, £5.5m) Colin Calderwood (Tottenham, £225,000) Neil Tarrant (Ross County, £250,000) David James (Liverpool, £1.7m) George Boateng (Coventry, £4.5m) Najwan Ghrayib (Hapoel Haifa, £1m) Benito Carbone (Sheff Wed, undisclosed) 2000 IN Luc Nilis (PSV Eindhoven, free) Alpay Ozalan (Fenerbahce, £5.6m) David Ginola (Tottenham, £3m) Thomas Hitzlsperger (Bayern Munich, free) Steve Staunton (Liverpool, free) 2001 IN Juan Pablo Angel (River Plate, £9.5m) Hassan Kachloul (Southampton, free) Mustapha Hadji (Coventry, £2.5m) Peter Schmeichel (Sporting Lisbon, free) Olof Mellberg (Racing Santander, £5m) Bosko Balaban (Dinamo Zagreb, £5.8m)
Thats not really that much for the biggest club in britians 2nd biggest city, And why did you include free players Just to make the lsit look longer ???
who else will of spent more in that period? chelsea united arsenal toon spurs liverpool can't see anyone else spending that much.. maybe leeds but they are irrelevant now. i imagine the stats are out there to prove villa are not minnows in the xfer market at all.
