Villa will have to cave at some point, we not so desperate that we would be at the end of the world if he didnt sign, im sure we would be ok..... Villa can stick as much as they want till the tax and debt colletors come

How big is Villa's tax bill supposed to be? I presume they want at least that much in immediately as any loan they had to take out to cover that is only going to be a further drain on their resources. Even if they didn't go through QuickQuid I somehow doubt they got a favourable APR!
Need to raise 50m over two years

I think on all counts he is a good buy but at the right price - there will come a point when we should walk away if they are unrealistic.

Worrying thing with this new info from Herc is that it sounds a hell of a lot like the info we had on Barkley last summer and all the way up to him joining Chelsea in January.
...IIRC, if ITK can be believed it was Poch that cooled on Barkley rather than the other way round.

Call me a naysayer, but it's pretty depressing to see us labour to sign a Championship player from a broke Championship club.

Bodes well for our pursuit of Martial.

Not to mention we were reliant on them not getting promoted before it even became an option. Hardly dining at the top table are we!

They need to bring in about 40m to comply with financial fair play. Grealish is their only real asset. Adomah and Chester not that valuable. Apparently the owner has secured another 5m so should be able to pay the wages next week.

I sense a few cryptics coming today. Make sure you're aware of the rules as it'll be the last straw for many of you!

Was going to post a gif of C3-PO saying “we’re doomed”. Then a stifling fear of isolation and ban-sticks puppetising my being kicked in

Is that a cryptic?

Coincidently and on subject of your post, “Last straw” is an anagram of stalwarts :LOL:

Ruminate on this double-cryptic, look at our son Matt, he's a Shepherd

*This has nothing to do with any previous cryptics so lets not go there

Before him will be gathered all the nations, and he will separate people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats.

Poch watching the WC picking which player(s) he wants to sign?
