this is what he said. Well people. Settled into my new office today. Started off by chucking the filing cabinet out the window... I f*****g hate those things. Whoever invented them, clearly had abuse dished out to them during childhood. Randy Lerner is slowly grating on me too. Everytime we pass in the corridor he shouts "High 5 PL" and when I refuse he shouts "Don't leave me hanging!" Imagine this 15 to 20 times a day... f*****g unbearable. At least McNally used to just walk past grunting in the morning. Currently looking on Rightmove for a new house... there is no Rightmove when looking around the Midlands area I can tell you. people told him but did not listen to anyone who will Houghton sign no news yet its gone quite
not sure who Houghton will sign (not even sure where he is managing.....) Imagine Hughton is assesing his squad before making any decisions.....
New managers are always limked with players from their former clubs. Curtis Davis would make sense though especially after the departure of Whitbread and the (similar) rumour that Lambert would like Ayala to join him at Villa (doubt that one is genuine though). For me, Ryan Bennett will be the best CB at the club, he is young and inexperienced but for me has the most ability.
A mate of mine (yes, that old chestnut) is drinking buddies with Calderwood. They've had an "off the.record" chat over chilled beers... So, strikers were mentioned and they're looking at next season without Holt in the picture. If that changes, it's a bonus... Rhodes name happened to pop up, where a fee.of £12 million was quoted. "If" that's true, he'll be out of our grasp, but Arsenal and Spurs were looking at a cash plus player deal.... It may be bollox, but, if its not, remember where you heard it first....
I remember harry saying a lot of spurs scouts keen on rhodes but he didn't want him as he thought he wasn't quite good enough for spurs.... with harry gone some of the coaches/scouts may be pushing for this
