Darren Sheehan, a Nottingham-based supporter, had this to say:

"Im a big villa fan to be honest go to the home games when i can and a couple away when i can get sats off work.the only reason dol hasnt gone and took the ireland job which was in the bag for him to be honest is he already knows whats happening behind closed doors re the villa takeover when the russians do get hold of it the sum of what was it ?75mill will be available for him to spend at will.i just hope he doesnt do a leeds on us spend all the funds then buggar off when the times are going bad...as for huth if we get him january i wld be over the moon he has great potential and we shld pref buy him rather then loan deal if we can"

It's fair to say that Darren has got a point over O'Leary and a few of you are bound to have some similar thoughts, so why not email 'em to luke@astonvilla.biz.
