Regarding FFP, could the owners not set up a feeder club, let's call it Bodymoor Heath Villa FC, and enter it in some obscure league somewhere. Then, all future signings are made by the feeder club and immediately loaned out to AVFC. We could then sell Grealish, Chester and Kodjia to feeder club for an incredibly large fee and then immediately loan them back. All FFP debt instantly gone. The other part of this is even better - we could transfer McCormack and Richards to feeder club and get some money for them too. Winner!

I’d rather start by buying Small Heath, closing it down and using it for car boot sales.

A very cautious welcome for me. Seen too many AVFC owners turn out as bad or worse as the old one to be that enthusiastic.

Well it didn't take long for the new manager rumours to start.
According to the Heil sources say Bruce is on his way on the other hand sources say he's staying.

Just paper crap i reckon. I'd be worried if we seriously went for Henry. We haven't got the support set-up at the club to take on someone inexperienced like him. We need a guy who can run the club top to bottom in his own image at least at this level.

A person who understands football administration is a key appointment.

You're right, we haven't done too well in our CEO appointments for years. Someone in the Steve Stride mold would be good.

Welcome to Sawiris and Edens. Hopefully they will play their part in removing some of the dross at VP (new broom and all that). 
A long way to go yet, but the cream that is Aston Villa will rise to the top again, much to the annoyance of our bitter and scum neighbours.
UTV! VTID!

We will have to see what happens, but I also hope for some appointments who will put in place a structure to take the club forward, preferably built around the development and promotion of young players.

Nerd alert.

The new owners are already identified by the letters NSWE.  As you walk up Trinity Road look up at the spire of Holy Trinity church.  A cock of the walk on the very top surmounting the letters NSWE.

It has to be an omen.

Praise be: it's a sign!

ps I hope you'll be out & about today collecting shoes, Brian. You KNOW it makes sense. ;)

Would like that Italian guy who was at Southampton a few years back, Nicola something. Anyway he made a very brave call to sack Adkins when they weren't even in the bottom 3 and got in some unknown called Pochettino.

Seems a pretty ruthless operator which isn't a bad thing although don't know if he's been involved in football since.
