Villa boss David O'Leary today admitted he was "just kidding" about signing new players during the transfer window.
In an interview invented by Row Z today, the manager said rumours of incoming transfers were "a joke that got out of hand."
"Rumours of incoming transfers are a joke that got out of hand," said O'Leary in an interview which never actually happened.
"I was having a bit of a laugh and a joke with Roy Aitken at training one day and I suddenly thought, 'Wouldn't it be hilarious to tell everyone we'd be signing three or four players?'.
