Canadian billionaire takeover???
« on: March 03, 2013, 09:03:47 PM »
Picked this up from another forum. Don't shoot the messenger  :)

1. ......... I'm told its on a number or villa sites about a Canadian billionaire in talks with Lerner about a takeover

2. It's true, he is coming over to sample a few games, but his main one is the Liverpool match when the main Canadian and his cronies will be stopping in a hotel close to Villa park.

3. I've heard the same rumours.. Apparently he's been quite a few times already.

It used to be Arab zillionaires, now it's a mere  Canadian billionaire. How can we sink so low?

My mate runs a B&B on Wellington Road and he has a Canadian visitor booked there in 3 weeks time by the name of Mr Singh. At £23.95 per night including  full English all billionaires' are  welcomed!

Ah yes, that was when I got my first real six-string.

Which, as I was an embryo in the summer of 69, was bloody hard to learn to play.
