Hope he does the Ayatollah every time he gets the ball out of his net in the first game! Many times!

He was great for us (and good to see him get a club) but it seems his career has been in reverse ever since he left.
Off the top of my head David Marshall, Roger Johnson, Michael Chopra and Jay Bothroyd are definitely in the second category
McCormack could go into both categories, great for Fulham, utter shite for Villa
In the first category Ramsey, Heaton, Ledley, Gabbidon, Collins, Burgstaller?
I think Marshall and his family were happy and settled here (S.Wales, not just the club) and he couldn't settle elsewhere.
Just my opinion.
An interesting topic. As an unashamed Dave Jones fan, I suspect the outcome would be a significant indicator that he got the best from players. And on the subject of Ross McCormack, who was always a bona fide quality player... he’s only 32. Im not one for re signing players but he had actual class. No idea what his salary demands are given that he is seemingly unemployed, but he’s got the talent and he’s young enough still to get fit again. I’d be interested to see what he could still do for us.
I should add that I am really quite drunk and the at-present romantic thought of a still-in-service ex-hero returning may, once sober, seem like a terrible plan. But from where I am sat right now, having experienced god knows how many years of bang average strikers, the thought of a player who openly enjoys kicking a ball into a net and has the ability to do so is uplifting.
What are the odds on Marshall saving a pen and Pilks scoring the winner against us.Its writ in the stars.
It’s been reported that Ross has just had a £30k per week pay rise for promotion with Villa despite not starting for them since September 2017.
They were halcyon days under Jones. Some of the best football down the city I’ve seen in my lifetime.
The collapse at the end of 2008/2009 was unforgivable, but the play off defeat was unbearable. I often wonder how things would have panned out for the club if we’d beaten Blackpool that day.
