Expected to be one more signing before the end of the window, supposedly a striker being brought in to replace the outgoing McCormack (good riddance, supposedly a free kick specialist whom I don't think has got one on target for us),

I am gutted it hasn't worked out for Ross McCormack and Aston Villa. I just do not understand the modern day footballer they have a fantastic job the attitude on some players makes me sick. I will be happy to see him leave now him and gollini have let themselfs down! At least we have a fantastic chairman I love going to meeting with the supporters trust now days under lerner it was excuses this guy really has the club at heart!
26 Jan 2017 21:55:09
i asked about freekick other week, can't remember if I've even seen him hit the target never nmind score
27 Jan 2017 20:22:58
I think we'll thought he was a great buy at first but it must be the money that messes with their heads. They have the knowledge that they are getting a massive pay check every week no matter what until their contract is up, whether or not they perform on the pitch or even make the squad. You are relying solely on their desire to be as good as they can be and when you hit 30 and have been doing it for nearly 15 years and you have a cushy contract that you know will pretty much see you out to the end of your career it's understandable that some people will let it slide. Don't get me wrong I don't condone it but what can we do as a club with contracts as they are now. If any of us where crap at our jobs and not putting the work in we be on the dole in no time flat.

Chuba akpom, if we get this fella, its smiles all round. connor hourihane, welcome, ya little devil.
26 Jan 2017 17:25:39
Akpom? 4 goals in 46 games for Hull when they was in this division, and 3 were against Bury in the cup. Don't think anyone Should be happy with him. We've done very good business so far, let's not ruin it now.
26 Jan 2017 18:48:42
I agree chris.
26 Jan 2017 21:55:55
akpom. don't we already have a player just like him? gabby?
26 Jan 2017 22:33:41
First post on here lads, been observing from afar for a while.
Not too convinced on Akpom tbh, hasn't really done anything too inspiring except that he's an Arsenal player? Better options out there I reckon
Watford have just signed 2 strikers; Igalo anyone?
26 Jan 2017 22:47:49
Welcome aboard mate.
Ighalo to expensive,
26 Jan 2017 23:56:55
£15mil, and can't see his wages being too high. Quite reasonable
Ross may have to go beforehand though, bit of an issue.
27 Jan 2017 00:04:09
Oh ye of little faith, akpom is a good player, he's only 21 now, he was only a teenager when loaned out, he'd be a good loan signing for us
27 Jan 2017 10:19:26
Happy to be proven wrong ;)
26 Jan 2017 14:55:37
I have been told by a close friend of Dr t who is also a buisness contact of mine that there is up to 25 million to spend this window plus any money raised. 25 +6 for just head is 31. minus 5 for signings in so far which I might add is great buisness still leaves 30 mil. this guy says Dr t has told him there is still 3 deals in the works of which he hopes to get 2 one of which will be a statement signing. the on deal is the young cb for Bury and that is 50 50 as to if we make it happen. other 2 is a winger and striker. both of which dr t says will happen.
26 Jan 2017 17:26:42
Donkor to sign by the end of last weekend, Rhodes to sign by last Tuesday, shall we add this waffle to that list?
26 Jan 2017 18:49:52
'Kingys contacts'
26 Jan 2017 18:55:26
What he has written there was in the papers my weeks ago, not I'm afraid, unless we raise money from McCormack sale only loans left for you
26 Jan 2017 19:06:36
Hasn't donkor gone to Everton?
26 Jan 2017 19:15:45
well kingvilla Steve Bruce's friend who knows my sister in-laws father who works with a bloke who's brother lives next door to the bloke who empties my dustbins say's "Hi"
26 Jan 2017 20:09:42
Can we not revisit the changing name of kingvilla to uncle Albert
26 Jan 2017 19:24:14
Yep kaydee he has but Kingy told us last weekend he was signing before the end of the weekend.
26 Jan 2017 14:29:13
According to SSN there have been bids from other clubs for scott hogan
Hope we're one of them as he looks a good player
McCormack wants to move back to London . I would offer McCormack plus the Gestede money for hogan
See if we can get it done!
26 Jan 2017 17:27:42
I'd love to sign him aswell but would we need him? So far we've gone with 1 up top so unless we're playing Kodija out wide again don't see him getting off the bench!
26 Jan 2017 13:42:26
Hepburn-murphy Close to signing a new Villa deal. Deal as always been on the table. Things looking up UTV
26 Jan 2017 11:20:40
Conor Hourihane done deal :-)
26 Jan 2017 11:58:29
This Is without a doubt the best signing we have made in recent times
26 Jan 2017 12:18:16
"Barnsley Football Club can confirm that Conor Hourihane has joined Aston Villa after both clubs agreed an undisclosed fee for the midfielder. Following months of transfer speculation surrounding the Reds captain, the Irishman has signed a three-and-a-half year contract at Villa Park"
26 Jan 2017 12:57:00
Well done the Dr and SB very good business done 👏
26 Jan 2017 13:38:34
Along with Bjarnason, this has been a bloody good transfer window, however there are quite a few more cars at bodymoor than usual so maybe some more?
26 Jan 2017 14:22:05
2 more before deadline. winger and striker with tish and few others going out on loan
26 Jan 2017 16:04:11
Nice 1 Brucey and Dr Tony 👍🏻 Who's next then? If McC and Ayew leave, I'd go all in for Hogan, then we're going up
UTV
26 Jan 2017 16:06:52
Well done to the dr and his staff,
For me this is the best transfer window for many years,
Really pleased with all the signing made,
And we have not spent a fortune to get them either
I love this owner of ours
He does say mad things but that's why the fans are warming to him,
He has the club at heart and long may it continue
26 Jan 2017 09:15:04
Houricain should sign today.
Get it done SB. We are all waiting for a guy we hardly heard about less than 2 weeks ago.
26 Jan 2017 11:51:46
It's done. You can relax now.
26 Jan 2017 01:02:23
It would appear big sam has arrived on the scene and is trying to muscle in on the hourihane deal, i hope hourihane's a man of honour, but as usual, i'm sure his agent will not just be thinking of the money he can make of his client, time will tell
26 Jan 2017 10:37:30
Palace signing Brady, Hourihane will be in claret and blue before the weeks out.
Is the jigsaw complete?
26 Jan 2017 09:46:05
Although I've seen this on twitter aswell, it seems like that's all it is, kids on twitter, doesn't seem to have any substance at this point. Although is weird he is meant to be 99% done but not announced?
26 Jan 2017 10:42:07
Palace have had a £9m offer for Brady accepted by Canaries.
Reports saying that we are still talking to Tykes about Hourihane.
It ain't done yet, others are sniffing.
