Title: Chairman's Corner

On similar lines to the thread started by McRusson. If you had the opportunity to ask just one question to our owner, what would it be?

If inadvertently ruining one sports team you own could be described as careless; how would you describe ruining two?

A serious one I would genuinely be interested to know the answer to.

Knowing what you now know, if you could travel back to the summer of 2006 would you still buy us?

Why don't you clear your diary and come and take a month's holiday in Birmingham England?   Find out what kind of people we are and what is special about us and the things we love?   Before you sell us, why can't you make the effort to find out for yourself, first hand, what you have been privileged to own and have now put up for grabs?   There are upwards of fifty thousand of us who would die for the honour of owning Aston Villa and you just did not get it.   Cut out the PR crap and find out for yourself what a monumental world wide passion football is and how our club was fundamental to the creation of the game.   We and other clubs like us are pieces of priceless modern social history.   Not franchises to be traded on a whim.   Put your pride in your pocket, stump up another couple of hundred million and let's go again.

When choosing a Manager, what are the most important qualities?
1. A Scottish Accent.
2. A dodgy heart
3. An ability to get a team relegated.
4. A planet sized ego.
5. A complete and total commitment to a one dimensional playing style.

Bearing in mind that both the club's value and the chances of finding a buyer will decrease rapidly if we get relegated, don't you think your on-going game of brinkmanship with the economic realities of the EPL is rather short-sighted?

trying to be serious,

i dont know what goes on in our chairmans head, he didnt do to good a job at the Browns (seems to have learned nothing) and here we are in a downward spiral to many seasons at the wrong end of the league, if/when we get relegated i imagine Randys asking price will have to be reduced.

I fear the championship as I dont think we have the where withall to bounce back.

But Randy is in charge of his money and ASTON VILLA for now, we'll still be here when he's gone.
