Sceptical but dare we dream ..........

[Exiledvillan]

Not sure if you been a sleep all summer but apart from the loanees, we have not sold; Elmo. Chester. Hutton. Jedi. Whelan. kodija. Albert. Bunn. Birkir. Hogan or Bree...
Elmo. Birkir and Jedi have extended leave all the others including Jack have been involved in all our pre season games.

Steve Bruce said 'Several' have left....

He is now saying things have changed, the new owners have till March to sort out the FFP or be fined. Considering Bournemouth were fined 5 million, i would take the fine..

If spuds want Jack and Stoke want Chester, they will have to now stump up the fee valued at Not waiting to get them on the cheap. The words of SB yesterday!

From the Mail-

Fans are daring to dream

“The fans have obviously woken up in the last 48 hours in better humour and so they should! Why shouldn’t we all?

“Let’s embrace it. For the football club this is fantastic news.

“This feels like I’m just starting again. We’ve lost something like 7-8 players who played in the Play-off final so it feels like we’re starting over again.

“But we’ve still got some very good players at the club and I hope that I get given the chance – but that’s not my choice.”

That’s been my point all along Dave, maybe it passed you by. I thought that I must have overslept and missed a couple of players leaving, as I couldn’t work out the 7 or 8.
I was suggesting that mathematics was another of SB’s many weaknesses.

Ok with you now. Bruce is all confused bless. He thinks were up, he holds his head. Xia states were skint and must sell Jack. He decides to stay than we get 3 new owners with big dosh. Then he hears Henry! He is confused.com and after Tuesday he may not be in a job? I do feel for him but he did mess up when up counted! I cannot forgive him for that.

Daily Star and BBC are reporting this:-



Football gossip
Former Arsenal forward Thierry Henry, who is now on the Belgium coaching staff, has "verbally agreed" to take his first managerial role - replacing Steve Bruce at Aston Villa. (Daily Star)



Obviously we need to wait for confirmation it’s correct.

[TrianonDave]

Wow!

Wait for confirmation.

Hmmm the daily star isn't often accurate. Not sure about this one if its true. Great publicity but is he any good?
Let's hope he brings his boots. Surely he could still play at this level?

[TrianonDave]

If true this could have been planned for a while, why not keep bruce and make him director of football?
