For some reason Bristol City fans foam at the mouth about us and it's a common theme amongst other clubs to "hate the Villa with a passion" over FFP and other odd reasons.

Foam at the mouth about something we haven't breached.

Yeah, but in this division we're the supposed big boys to be shot down.

I just wish we'd bloody act and play like it.

I think the foam thing is just down to the local dialect.

It's a back handed compliment. Can you imagine Villa fans foaming at the mouth over Sheffield Wednesday or Bristol City? It just wouldn't happen.

Looks like Dr T has had his shares changed to "deferred shares" so that they no longer carry voting rights, and that he's no longer entitled to any distributions.  The company can at any time it likes, redeem them, ie buy him out, for £1 a share, or £47m.  Must be a bit of a kick in the nuts that.

£47m for a club he paid £75m for and then shelled out God knows on transfer fees.

£47m for a club he brought to the very brink. Any one of us could have done what he did, spend the parachute payments and sell off every last drop of income for an all or nothing throw of the dice. Absolutely no thought went in to anything he did, basically kid on a computer game kind of stuff. He's lucky to get a penny.

Spot on.

People talk about transfer spending as if it came out of his back pocket.

Think we have successful business men in charge now who will take a longer term view but ultimately provide us with a successful  future.

Didn't he already receive 35m for a 55% stake ; wouldn't this be a total of 82m once all of his shares have been purchased ?

If I've understood that right, unless they were preparing to sell I don't know why they'd ever buy him out - makes NSWE investment even better value, and shows the good doctor up for what he is (or isnt?)  ie a businessman
