Depends.

If there is a player who is a fan of the club then it is Jack. I know money talks in football but I just cannot see him forcing a move. He is from here, his family is Villa and he is living his dream playing for the club he supports. I know you can say Rooney, Barkley left Everton, Gascoigne left Newcastle etc but I can't see it. Definitely not at the moment anyway.

My only concern is if we don't go up in nine days time we might be forced to sell him. But if we do go up he isn't going anywhere.

Monkey, you got the History Channel? Lots of good footy progs/docs on over the next few weeks, including The History of Football...

Don't think so mate unless it's on freeview and I've not found it.

I do tend to watch telly now before bed now though, spend until about 00:30-1am channel hopping, usually put Challenge on, enjoy the quiz shows. So I'll have a look tonight, thanks Trolls.

It's part of the Sky and Virgin packages. I doubt it's on Freeview. The HoF is a two-week event that's going to go right through all the major and minor events, big players, managers, tournaments, teams, upsets ... should be good. Some big names involved. Can you say Pele?

radja left off of belgium’s world cup squad as expected. what a joke. i know there are some issues between he and Martinez but bringing Fellani instead is absolutely insane.

Nainggolan is a basic bitch.

Benteke didn't make the squad. Expected, but still a bit disappointed. Belgium have enough without him anyway.

~~Cuthbert~~ · 05-21-2018, 12:50 PM

Just seen Benteke did make the squad. I looked earlier and didn't see him. Must have missed it.

I swear I am sick of reading articles on squads on news sites and scrolling forever past text. Put the ****ing squad at the top of the article. Same if you Google for results. Score, scorers and minutes AT THE ****ING TOP PLEASE.
