Those are words I would never have said before today

thanks Ken

However it appears for once cuddly Ken deserves all the credit for holding to his words in face of enormous money waved at him by Man City. The story is that we bid for Delph some while back but were told by Ken only £6m plus addons. However we were not prepared to pay and waited but Man City and possibley spurs showed interest and actually bid higher, but once we bid what Ken had said we could have Delph for the extra money did not matter but Ken’s words to us.

Hence Leeds’s statement today praising us because we never made our interest public we never speak about targets. It may infiruate some of us bit Aston Villa deserves a leadership of the upmost principles, honour and diginity and we have it.
