Was talking to my former boss, who is not a Villa supporter but takes his children to games said it 'looks as though they want the club to fail'.

I have no idea if this is true but somebody told me that the land at Bodymoor Heath would be worth more than the club if sold to developers.
He thought Randy might sell the land and shut down the club.

For ST holders you just merely need to write quoting your ref and seat number and confirm you won't renew under these circumstances.
No rambling, just short and succinct.

Subject: Cancellation of Season Ticket.

Client Reference : 11783

Dear Mr Fox

In May 2014 I made the decision not to renew my season ticket after approximately 24 years. I had been in regular attendance since 1966.
I have so far this season attended one game, the League Cup defeat at home to Leyton Orient.
I shall however be travelling to the game at Hull City next Tuesday.
Up to this point I have seen no evidence that I should consider a regular return to supporting our team in person, in fact almost everything I see and read of events both on and off the pitch has confirmed what were my worst suspicions when I decided not to renew.
If you can think of anything that could encourage me to reverse my decision I would appreciate a reply. I understand you are a busy person and will not expect a response as my request for you to be able to give me or tens of thousands of others a glimmer of renewed hope in the future of our great club at this stage is probably unrealistic. 

Yours Sincerely

I actually think letters are more effective than emails. You can delete an email. Letters cause much more hassle and show that you've taken a bit of effort. I'd send one to the Evening Mail, too. Be a nuisance.

Me too - have you ever tried wiping your arse on an email before sending it?

That is fantastic mentalism.

We all know which team's supporters specialise in fantastic mentalism.

Expression of Interest - purchase of share capital of Reform Acquisitions Limited

Dear Mr Fox

I work for the corporate finance firm Barrington Jarvis, and we have been retained by a consortium of Middle East property developers who would like to instigate talks relating to the.......sacking of Paul Lambert, you set of gigantic imbeciles!

That should get his attention.

Does anyone think any one of us at all will get a single reply?

I have been mulling over the idea of a banner like the Geordies took to Swansea with Pardew's record.

Does anybody know anything about having one done up?

Apologies for the mega quote. Working on a phone.....

Think it's time for a chorus of "Flip The Coin my Lord" on Saturday.

This. Was singing it myself last night.....

It's time for a big f*ck off banner.  FLIP THE COIN FOX.

FOR FOX SAKE FLIP THE COIN!

...is the winning entry.  Anyone got a spare (clean) bed sheet and a can of spray in the garage?

In all seriousness, if anyone can organise a whip round to get something through someone like these, I'll happily donate a a tenner or so to the costs.

A bit difficult to organise from this side of the North Sea, especially collection.

Made By Young People -  Socially responsible printing
More commercial alternative no. 1
More commercial alternative no. 2




In old Ellis style, we could distribute "Flip the Coin" on A4 pieces of paper ready for when the teams come out.

Turning it into the worlds largest pub beer garden for The Dog and Doublet. No football team to follow but thousands of us could congregate getting thoroughly pissed 24/7 talking about the good old days.
