And would we really be surprised by that? Mustn`t upset the apple cart, you might be jumping on it one day.

I actually would be somewhat surprised even by their standards.

If it was just Birmingham I think they would have. They`re the ideal target - `big` club fallen on hard times that have been mismanaged for years and are a financial basket case. Very few fans of other clubs like them and most would applaud them being made an example of.

Now Villa are involved though things change and they may well bottle it.

Bruce's mates in the tabloid press may also rally to the cause, as they tended to with Redknapp.

Like 'Arry he has demanded more and more money to spend and hang the consequences for the health of the club.

I think you`re right. They would actually have to do something meaningful to avoid becoming a laughing stock but it will probably be so watered down to be meaningless.

They might surprise us though.
