How the fuck is our average wage as high as £56K per week?It doesn't add up.
I think Randy wants out.

Quite agree, lets face it how many things in life do you jump into thinking its one thing only to find its something entirely different and an albatross around your neck that you can't wait to get rid of.If and its a big IF, Randy Lerner decided to jump ship and sell up, I would be the first to say thanks for rescuing us from Ellis and in moving the club forward somewhat, only wish he had deeper pockets, because you have to say he's a good Chairman on the whole.
Randy hasn't been over for a single game so far this season .GK has disappeared off the forums. I find that more worrying
Rigadon: No question in financial terms Ellis handed over a club in good order and good standing, and i think its fair to say, that's something that we should put on his epitaph for his time at Villa ( you could also make a few points where Ellis was concerned that were not so good!!!) point is Ellis handed over to Randy Lerner, so found the right man at the time, but, obviously things change.
A consortium that is connected with Doug Ellis are reported to be in the process of buying the club back.
