What Would You Expect in a new owner or what do we need in a new Owner
« on: February 14, 2016, 07:41:57 PM »
Given our current plight and future plight ;

What type of Chairman would you want to run our club (Given the choice).

Would you want a money bags chairman as Man City or Chelsea and all that is associated with such clubs ?

Would you want a club that held its own in the top tier and relied on local youth and talent with a moderate amount of spending by the owner ?

Would you want an owner that was hands on or one that would delegate effectively

Would you want an Owner that engaged EX Villa men to work with and understood the true nature and being of our great club ?

At the moment it seems that beggars can't be choosers , but who would you really want or what type of traits/character would you like to see in a new owner .

(Be careful what you wish for )  ;)

They'd have to have ambition and a plan to execute it.

We've had money under Lerner but the lack of a coherent strategy beyond the "just trust Martin" and "let's cling on" has not served us well.

More than 3 wins in 26 games would be a start.

I would like Monica Belucci to inherit the Sultan of Brunei's money then appoint a board of Jamie Lee Curtis, plus the contents of the fit birds over 40 thread. They would then instigate a media-heavy promotion campaign with fan meet-and-greets and champagne dinners at the Belfry and the Holte Suite.

They would appoint Pep Guardiola and half of the Barcelona squad to keep the football side ticking over until we get back on our feet.

If they appoint that board they can sod the football!

A decent strategy and at least a 5 year plan to get us out of the mess  we are in. 

Not an awful risk in taking us on, we have the facilities, the fan base,  decent enough commuter belt.

Not looking for a Mr Villa although it might be nice, but someone who can waive a magic wand and get us out of this crap.

That made me smile admittedly.

In all seriousness I'd have to say anyone who is not a brainless yank trust fund wanker would be an enormous improvement.

In that case, expect a phone call from Randy any second now.
