mcleish will be kept on if avoidin relegation
ireland will be awarded fan poty on monday nite,
mickey thomas -predicts ireland will join red devils in summer.
heskey will has offers from china + dubai
cueller will be offloaded

I can't see Stevie leaving tbh he seems settled now

Can easily see Ireland shipping out. Not convinced it'd be to Man U though.

Ireland hasn't performed well enough to go to united and has only performed for us on a handful of games he's going no where as he's on 80k a week and on that current run of form can you see any team matching those wages for him to leave Villa, EXACTLY!

He's on 60k a week i don't know where you have got 80k from

Are you the player or his agent? How can you state that he is not on 80k?

Whoever wrote this should seriously get a grip on reality

Because no one is on over 65k at Villa that's the wage cap

Ireland goin to NY Red Bulls...Ballack interview a few weeks back about goin there, said he couldnt because Red Bulls big wage player was already signed and was Stephen Ireland

The club statement last night only stated this season.

Roy Hodgson would apparently be open to a Villa approach due to the bigger club prospect & the much higher finances.
(Personally i would not welcome him - look at his liverpool stint!)

Paul Lambert is the other, yes we all know that this might be seen as but a joke. Yet, he would apparently welcome a cross to a bigger club whom can achieve more on paper.

Don't talk crap Paul Lambert won't come here he has what every manager wants, and thats a club with ambition magnificent fans 22.000 Season tickets are sold again before close of first deadline, yet again they sell out to home crowds of 26 800 they only hold 27000, and I know a lot of Norwich fans and they tell me Paul Lambert has just signed an improved contract. Yes they know Lambert will leave, but not yet a while, the club has a 7 year plan he has completed the plan 5 years in advance so where can the club go now, if they stay up next season they will increase seating to 35-40,000 Paul Lambert is loved in Norwich and he loves them, so I think unless we offer him Megga bucks to come then forget it

Lambert left Colchester after they thrashed Norwich 7-1 so stranger things have happened. Villa are a much bigger club than Norwich end of, he would get paid more, have better players and a big task that no manager who wants to b top should shirk. Lambert take the villa job, get them playing again, get yourself a top job now. The best managers don't settle for teams punching above their weight

Clever ploy to unsettle lambert as we playing his team last day of the season but Mcleish shall be kept on !!!

If Norwich thrash Villa 7-1 send Villa down LAMBERT Stays at Norwich end of,as well as that he won't want to come to Dummy land

How the hell is Villa a bigger club than Norwich,?you might have a load more seats (empty) than we do, you don't run a club on History, Norwich are a team for the future, bring plenty of tissue's on the `13th may you will need them, its a long way back to the championsip, but at least you will have afew local derbies to look forward to

So if ipswich was above you in the league would you turn around and say they were a bigger club then norwich??......... i don't think so! yes norwich have been playing far better then villa (even though villa did beat you) but just because you finished above us this season it doesn't make norwich a bigger club then villa.

Suprised you managed to type that message with webbed hands.

Going back to the original forgettin comment Hodgson is a great manager with pedegree
are we forgetting he managed inter milan winning trophies
Fulham to the uefa cup final
and is doing well at baggies
at liverpool they wanted kenny and messed him about till he quit

So i'd happily have Hodgson as the manager but lets face my Nan who's been dead 20 year could do a better job than mcleish

I would like to give your nan a go! Who's with me?
Nan in, Eck out, nan in, Eck out...... {Ed001's Note - for a minute then I misread that, I thought you were asking for a go on his nan!}

Lmao!! glad i'm not the only one ed.

Well, think we can rule Hodgson out of the running now that he's set to be interviewed tomorrow for the England job.

According to reports AZ Alkmaar winger Rasmus Elm is ready to move to England with Villa being one of the clubs chasing his signature.

Remember with Holman tied up from the same club this may happen {Ed004's Note - Not much chance if Manchester United are interested in signing him...}

Nobody worth their salt is going to agree a deal with Villa over Utd. In fact, nobody worth their salt is going to agree a deal with Villa until Villa are mathematically safe in the prem.

Norwich fan here, we never win our first or last match of the season, If by giving you the points keeps you up and QPR down I'll be happy with that

But this season it will be different goodby Vile

United wont want him

The rumor doing the rounds a few months back about a middle eastern takeover, apparently fell through because Randy Learner is Jewish and didn't want to sell to arab investors, some people are saying he's still looking to sell, so who knows what will happen in the future.
