I have a feeling that Graham Taylor is goin to be taken to Villa Park by the broke who introduced him to the Premiership.
The tought struck my mind earlier on aswell, Villa are out of the cup and all so being cup tied is hardly a problem.
this is complete arse.
Yorke is more likely to score the winning goal in a Euro final for an unbelieving manager than he is to sign for the guy who spotted him in the Caribbean.
Football isn't about neat circles...what goes around doesn't always come around.
Yorke will probably play some significant part in United's Euro campaign this season and end up signing for Real Betis or somebody.
Football like life doesn't always take the easy or obvious route.

Villa TeamTalk:
Graham Taylor is poised to try and make Manchester United striker Dwight Yorke his first signing and it is understood talks have already opened.
The new Villa boss, who signed the former Trinidad and Tobago international in his first spell in charge after discovering him on a tour of the Caribbean, is believed to have already started negotiations with United.
The player recently turned down a move to Middlesbrough after falling out of favour with Old Trafford boss Sir Alex Ferguson.
Yorke left Villa for United in a £12million deal in August 1998 and if Taylor could re-sign him it would provide a massive boost in the club's mission to try and lure the missing fans back to Villa Park.
Taylor, who will begin his second stint in the hot-seat with a crucial clash against fellow European hopefuls Chelsea on Saturday, believes making sure the team play exciting football is the way forward.
As well as wanting full houses to cheer on his team, Taylor knows the extra income generated by more fans attending matches will also be a welcome financial boost.
He said: "What I would like to do is to be able to produce a team that will fill the vacant 8,000 seats at Villa Park.
"That would be more income for the club if we could regularly get between and extra 5,000 and 8,000 fans coming on a regular basis.
"But they are only going to come if they want to come and they can only want to come if we are playing the type of football that will make them want to come."
Taylor added: "I would like to improve the tempo at which we play - get it, give it and go.
"To play it in a forward manner you have to be good players playing two-touch football going forward. We can all play two-touch football going sideways and backwards."
I'd be amazed quite frankly if he didn't go and soon. Villa would be a very different proposition to him than 'boro. Less smog, a manager who he looks up to as a father figure, bigger club, hid old club etc. etc.
PDC in the summer therefore. Or I suppose potentially earlier for the league.

Who?
The only unhappy person in Old T yesterday was Yorke!
If I was him (besides being rich) I'd move real fast!

I thought Yorke might stay & fight for his place but with SAF staying it does look more likly he will be of to Villa.
I watched the Documentary the other day about him and GT seems to have a soft spot for him.

GT has been quoted as saying that because he is also on the board at Villa, he has seen the money figures and it is unlikely that they will buy before the end of the season.
still, if they want to swap Angel for Yorkie who am i to argue? There'd be a fight over the hairbands in the dressing room then!
