Villa Flop Heading To Tyneside ... Again?

The Sunday Sun report Alan Pardew has not given up hope of signing Aston Villa flop Stephen Ireland. Signed when injured, Ireland made only two substitute appearances for Newcastle after a combination of ankle, knee and thigh problems kept him on the sidelines. But the player is now injury-free and hoping to relaunch his career next season. Newcastle would be prepared to pay around £2million for Ireland, but Villa wanted an unreasonable £5million in January. However, they may be prepared to cut their losses on a player who has not settled in the second city.
