Sky Sports reporting it’s very close this morning.

It is quite close, but there may be a bit of rain later which should help.

This made me laugh.
Well, we’ve had rain in Wylde Green and now we have drizzle so it’s very much like any summer in the previous 50 years, the summer of ‘76 and this year until now excepted. Whether this has any impact on the Bailey sale remains to be seen.

Will be a decent signing for them, big fish in a pond the size of a puddle of piss.

Bailey's career at Villa is like a bottle of champagne  that was opened some time ago and has been lying around for too long..

Plenty of sparkle and pop to begin with, but the fizz ran out a while ago and now it's as flat as tap water.

Great initial times and memories, but nothing recent.
