He is not blameless but it looks like he put around £150 mil in , Wyness on other hand too 300k a year in salary and mismanaged the wages to an epic degree

Don't care how much he's put in, if he's not good for all the spending he promised he'd underwrite then he's fucked up immensely.

In fairness, we really don't know the full story but suffice to say that no one comes out of this well, Xia, Wyness, Round or Bruce.  They've all have been culpable in some way, it's just to what degree.  The statement is impossible to really decipher as it's clearly his 2nd language.  One thing I do know is that right now, yet again, we are a complete shambles.

He knew enough English to do those deals and gamble on our very existence.  He knew what he was doing.

I'd have to agree with that.

Had the money that was there been spent wisely, we would be in the Premier League now and there would be a lot more in the 'incomings' column. Wyness was Steve Bruce's superior, he was supposed to have the lifetime of football administration - that's why he was brought in. It's no good playing the 'doing the best thing for the club' card now. The time for that was not signing off on tens of millions of pounds letting a squad be built which was 40% comprised of right backs and crap strikers on big money.  Dr. Tony has been very naive yes, but Wyness (and Bruce) take their share of the blame so the reporters trying to paint Wyness as some kind of wannabe guardian angel battling the owner for the long term good of the Villa can fuck right off.

He should have done it with emojis.

😱😭😱💩💩💩💩✈️🤮👋

He could have done one of his mathematical formula tweets.

However, I'm not sure what the symbols are for circling a plughole

Aston Villa Football Club can confirm that an agreement has been reached with HMRC and the club will continue to fulfil its obligations.
The club can also announce that there are no insolvency practitioners or administration advisors working with the club.
Owner and Chairman Dr Tony Xia would like to take this opportunity to sincerely thank supporters during this difficult and unsettling time and reassure them plans are now being put in place to move the club forward.

Sorry Tone, you talk bollocks. Can't believe a word he says. He lives in cloud cuckoo land but his playing around is putting the existence of the club myself and my family going back generations at risk.

Fuck off.

Asap, please.

Plans are as follows

1. Fly home
2. Blame my government
3. Pretend we are fine to get a decent price
4. Stick fingers in ears, bury head in sand and prey a buyer turns up before the 30th
