Certainly better than certain articles that say, to paraphrase, its Garde and all them Johnny foreigners who need to be kick out of the club.I don't like the sound of this:"Yet there was no buyer at the £200m asking price — or even at lower valuations Lerner was forced to concede. Various consortia began due diligence, only to decide not to proceed. The precise nature of what they saw in the books remains unclear."

Certainly better than certain articles that say, to paraphrase, its Garde and all them Johnny foreigners who need to be kick out of the club. I've read the article and its worrying if there is any truth that potential buyers looked over the books and took flight. It's all unsubstantiated, but there were enough rumours of talks teaching an advanced stage last summer and breaking down, that there may be some credence in this. Oh Lord, I suspect we haven't seen the start of how this will all unravel...

It's not inconceivable that this stuff gets fed out by potential buyers to undermine the perceived value of the club.

For all the faults of the board Villa have never tried to rip the fans off with overpriced tickets.
