Good to hear. Blackburn should be a good tune-up for sure.

The Revs are doing great. Still two points clear in first place (with a game in hand) and preparing for the SuperLiga semifinal against Atlante of Mexico on Wednesday night.

Very good luck with it mate , yes blackburn will be a hard game , be nice to see incy back

Thanks. Yep, Blackburn will give some of the Wolves fighting for a place a chance to really show what they can do. Yeah, it will be interesting to see how Ince does at Blackburn. Hopefully he can keep them on a good track and not end up fired within two seasons!

I really he hope hes does well , he was a great leader at wolves.

He happens to be a very nice fella as well (All for the fans & he loves Liverpool) even though Gerard Houllier & Thommo may tell you different!
What price he is Englands' 1st Black manager?

unrealistic? he has a CONTRACT, a legally binding CONTRACT...Barry is probably not worth 18 mil...more like 12-14 at most...BUT he has 2 years left on his contract...he is a Villa player and if rafa wants to buy a contracted player he will have to pay over the odds, simple as. rafa is just pissed because Villa and O'neill wouldnt be pushed around and now he has to play hardball. and o'neill not being able to buy without selling Barry is bullshit, im sorry we have a billionaire owner who has never denied O'neill funds. if you want him, 18 million please, if not, come out and say it and quit unsettling OUR player. that being said i get a gut feeling that barry will sign a new very lucrative contract.

Get your head out of your ass. Barry wants to leave Villa and signing a new contract won't stop that. Bog roll. You'll lose him. He wants to win trophies. He ain't gonna do that at Villa.

your right, modern players are such slaves! (knob)

Meaning????

he signed a contract. all barry has to do is put in a transfer request and boom, hes in a red shirt. its so drawn out because he wants villa to pay him the extra 3 mil from his release clause

by the way, the other thread was closed, but i said that celtic and rangers both have a small minority of fans who still hold onto biggoted beliefs, and props to both clubs for trying to stamp it out. and i have family in glasgow (gers and tims) so i might know more than you think

i was jokingly refering to sepp blatters comments about footballers being modern slaves to their clubs

His employers agreed to this clause presumably?

yes, im not quite sure about the specifics but he has a clause where he gets 3 mil for being released, which has added 3mil to the transfer cost that liverpool should have to pay if they want our player.
