David Sullivan complains about Lerner

[Mazrim]

The response is class. I would have been more direct though and it's probably just as well I'm not PR chief at Villa. For instance:

"With Mr Gold's products he can go and fuck himself. And we agree."

That is what they did say.

 “As regards the specific comments made by Mr Sullivan, we have tried but can’t seem to come up with a response that reflects terribly well on us.”

Oh Villa, very good.

[not3bad]

Very entertaining thread.  Well done Villa!

[Monty]

Beautiful, beautiful response from Villa. In an age of overly self-important clubs thinking they have to treat themselves like political institutions, something as funny as that is a rare joy.

[Risso]

To be fair, that is brilliant.

Who is the journalist who wrote the Mail article?  "Sex-shop boss" - three words that automatically raises whoever Gold is ranting about on to the moral high ground. 

In addition to all those hospitality gongs, we should get one for outstanding PR.  That response is sheer class.

[saunders_heroes]

Perfect. Well done Villa!

[ktvillan]

Great response by Villa.  I'm still wondering how short these corporate Villa fans had to be that David "Cubans" Sullivan would have to "stoop to their level."

[Dave Cooper please]

to the tune of Tom Jones


Sex boss sex boss your a sex boss !!

No, got to make it rhyme:

Sex boss sex boss your a sex boss !!

you sell dirty mags to kids that want a toss.

Whoooo would live in a house like this ? Overrrr to youuuuu Davidddd.



The only way is Essex.  Built from the sale of Porn and Shit. OK he had the house before he sold the Shit, but the proceeds help pay the upkeep.

'Randy Lerner is here to make money' says the man who begged the council for permisson for a casino.

[Yossarian]

Please, please notice and like me. Here I am, over here. I'll say anything you want me to say. I really am special. I have made lots of money. Lots and lots of it. And I spend it on lots and lots of expensive things. I own 17 Venus De Milos, 12 Lambourghinis and a football team. My name is David Sullivan, King of Kings: Look on my works, ye mighty, and despair!

Hmmmm... a Philanthropist who gives generously to charities and had a local charity as sponsors on his clubs shirt, missing out on millions of pounds, who restored the historic surroundings of his club rather than try to move it to the nearest free ride money spinner Vs a smut peddling, low life gobshite who's despised by his own supporters, never mind everybody else's. I'm sure he wants to turn our Olympic legacy into a sprawling gambling revue bar complex. You know, give something back to his adoring public.

I think that helicopter is the only way he can get back from cloud cuckoo land. I've never known somebody who's made so much money been so out of touch with reality.
And if he was mistreated by the club I'm glad, because he's not worthy of respect. After insulting General Krulak and deliberately getting his rank wrong he should have been thrown out of Villa Park on his ear.

 

[The Laughing Policeman]

Any guesses as to who the club spokesman is who gave that response?
That is top class. Almost Rinder like.
