Is that what the hold up has been?

Wow, Bennett must be pissed. Blocking his career playing football at a decent level. I can understand not wanting to sell to a league rival. But if Di matteo doesn't really want him or intend to play him, and the chairman makes the statement that he'd rather pay him to do nothing, he just looks like a tw@ more than anything.

Enjoy your new Chairman Villa. He's happy to let players rot!

Probably something will happen because one agent has already said that he won't allow any of his players to join Villa because of this attitude. Maybe they will let Bennett join a L1 team.

I'm not surprised, and probably not the only agent. L1 though. Isn't that beneath Bennett? Either way we better look for a LB quick time. Red Dawn in Birmingham.
