    It was him, but I believe he wanted a move to Portsmouth - he went to the horse punchers from Pompey.

    Serious allegation isn't it - I presume Mr Carver isn't hoping to get the Newcastle job or Williamson is on the way out.

    Between them and Sunderland for that last spot I feel...

    The latter will want Newcastle in the same league so they can get another 2 wins off them!

    Trust the BBC to get it wrong again - it's AFC Bournemouth. Bournemouth are a club in the Wessex League Premier Division!

    Leo, I remember reading somewhere that the holding company of the club still has that name with Limited at the end.

    Aston Villa are the subject of a takeover bid by a group of investors led by former Chelsea business director Paul Smith.

    The bid is believed to be in the region of £150m.

    It is understood that ex-Arsenal player Tony Adams would be brought in to work on football matters should the takeover be successful.

    Smith is known to current Villa owner Randy Lerner, who put the club up for sale last May.

    Tony Adams- they'd be better sticking with what they've got!

    Very good game at Brentford.

    It's 1-1 but could be a lot more!

    There will be some bitter Geordies around - their 'I'm the best coach in the Premiership' coach has now led them into a relegation spot.

    Cue some "We're a big club we should be there instead of them" cries coming in our direction. <laugh>
