And he’ll never work for them! #

HE’LL NEEEEEEVER WORK FOR THEM!
While the statement as it stands at the moment sounds a bit clinical and technical, this is absolutely fantastic, incredible, wonderful BRILLIANT news. Villa obviously wouldn’t put a statement like that out if Barry wasn’t happy to stay, for now at least. And we know we can trust him to give it a hundred per cent and play like a professional in the coming season, both as a player and as our captain. And after being resigned to losing him for so long, it feels like we’ve signed a new player. With Barry back in contention, I am now supremely confident about next season. Fuck it, I’m gonna say it - with Barry in the team, he won’t need to move in order to play Champions League football.
This is just so perfect. The only thing that’s made this sweeter, is the fact that the statement was made just a few hours after this Daily Mail report. The Daily Mail wrong and full of lies? Who’d have thought it?
EDIT: Unsurprisingly, that Daily Mail link has since been changed. Historical revisionism from a right-wing, Nazi-sympathising publication? Who’d have thought it? Good job someone took a screen grab, then.

It’s Your Round-Up, My Lord - 27/07/08 #

It’s been a long time. There’s been some actual news. We’ve been lazy. So here’s the first of a hopefully-not-too-regular feature, It’s Your Round-Up, My Lord. We’ve got Intertoto Cup action to look back on, a cup draw to look forward to, some signings to cheer us up and an injury to depress us. Oh, and that Gareth Barry chap.
