Just a theory, but has Xia's phone found it's way into Lescott's pocket?

Palace out of the bidding for Hogan

I've just ordered 10,000 of these in claret n blue...

My best guesses

First 99.9% Bedeau lad from Bury
Second 99.9%+X Taylor from Swansea
The 2 0.01% were only back ups to Taylor so won't happen.
The -100% Ayew to Swansea
The -99.9% Westy to Burnley
The -50% -65% and -50% are 3 possibles out on loan (Kids more than likely?)
The 95% Left winger (Korean lad)
The 99% Hogan

I reckon first 99.9% is Taylor in, second 99.9% is Ayew out + cash.

Then:
-100% is Tish out
-99.9% is Westwood out
(-50% -65%-50%)1/3 is one more out of 3 possibles
99% done could be the Bury lad or one other
95% is Hogan or another striker

Tell me more about him? And I don't really give a fuck about other teams and had heard of none of our current team except Jedinackered before they signed for us. So tell me about Taylor and this Hogan lad, too.

From what I've heard Hogan is an extremely accomplished American wrestler, wears yellow pants and is partial to ripping his T-shirts off. Has a moustache that could quite possibly topple Jedi from the facial fungus title at Villa.

I wonder if the striker we sign will be Rhodes or someone we haven't heard of and we are negotiating over Hogan just to prevent him from playing against us tonight?

I'm not even sure that Bedeau is included in the Doc's equation if he is effectively an academy signing who will be loaned back for the rest of the season. If he is included then I'd imagine he's the 99%, Taylor the 99.9% swap and our mystery striker as the 95%.

That is basically how I read it as well, although would the doctor put the Bury lad in the mix as he is for the U23's and I don't believe Hogan, definitely not at £15m!

If McCormack goes (he's being linked with Forest on loan) that would leave us with just Kodjia and Agbonlahor. We might need two strikers.

Just getting a portion of Rmacs wages off the bill should be our target, or, sort the mess out, get him firing and playing, he is a player IMO.........

One things for sure... these windows are much more exciting under the new regime!

Can't wait to wake up in the morning and watch the game whilst keeping an eye on the deadline day news :)

Makes me laugh.
Dembele not Leaving Celtic for Chelsea.
Dembele in London for a knee scan...

I'm worried Albion will be in for Hogan

Talks been done but i think he will come to us.

at last somone whom also sees it like the 4,5,6 previous managers, also I read that sean dyche has wanted westwood for a long time, so is sean dyche the 7th manager to be wrong about him?

Yep

Expect an announcement from Villa shortly about a completed deal. BMH.

Taylor? Bedau?

Apparently Taylor had his medical last night to probably him. Still got a feeling we'll siging someone today who comes as a bit of a surprise.

Fatty to Forest is ok but only if its a sale.
They already have Tish on loan, so we don't want to be strengthening a real competitor with our bloody players

Dunno but BMH says we will be very pleased, so McGrath  knows.The cryptic clue was Middle East Greek, whatever the fuck that means

I'm beginning to think Ayew leaving is the right thing to do. He was left on the bench for most of the first half of last season in favour of Gabby. Sherwood, then Garde changed the squad around every week and didn't let anyone settle or get into a rhythm. I just found the stats: 23 starts, 7 subs. He's been played on the wing this season, he's not being played as a striker. He's had a disjointed midfield to play with the entire time he's been here and as soon as we get some decent players in it looks like he's off, without the opportunity to show what he can do. I'd have a shit attitude and look pissed off if I had that lot to contend with. On the other hand, he looked pissed off when he didn't score, or made a mistake, or was subbed or at the end of a half. Surely we want all our players to look pissed off if they haven't performed? Stan used to be the same. So did (sorry to bang on) Weimann. So did (believe it or not) Westwood. So did Bacuna. No, wait, he didn't. He acted like a twat. When did any of them (with the exception of Bacuna) do anything to bring the club into disrepute? Ok, I was as angry as everyone else with the elbow but I can forgive him that. Just. I'd have been fucked off playing with that lot. No, Ayew hasn't been scoring freely but then nor have Gabby, McCormack or Gestede, but at least on his day he played some excellent football and scored some cracking goals. I hope he goes somewhere he'll be played properly and get his (UK) career started.

Jordan Rhodes is the gossip and Jordan Bedaeu close

Oh dear. Middle East (Jordan) and Greek (Rhodes).

Great news. Let's get him scoring. We've tried bringing in strikers who are in form and turned them (with the exception of Kodjia) into strikers not in form so we may as well try it the other way round. Shame we sold Gestede.

TFFT I had Georgios Samaras as a guess

Jordan Rhodes does fit the cryptic clue- Jordan - Middle Eastern country, Rhodes - Greek Island.
