Da Wiki!

He'll do. It only seems like yesterday I was checking out Lerner on Wikipedia and going "tee hee, Randy Lerner what a funny name" like Homer Simpson.   

Aw, the 5th wealthiest person in the world?  But I want the 1st!

Who's Larry Ellison ? Doug's stateside cousin ?
Anyone know who he is or anything about him ?

I wish there was some sort of web site where, say, if you wanted to know something about someone, you typed their name in and it told you.

I reckon that'd be a big success,.



Anyone got a link?

Stan Collymore hinted something about Villa and Ellison on the radio about 15 minutes ago, he gave it the big introduction and practically a drum roll then said absolutely nothing.
Jesus.

I just had a Twitter notification that Mat Kendrick and Stan Collymore just started following that Larry Ellison guy.
There won't be any news coming from that Twitter account, 46.6k followers but only one tweet, in 2012.


Dang! Must have been a good tweet!
46.6k Villa fans in need of light at the end of a tunnel?

Why decorate your house when someone else wants to buy it and decorate it to their own taste once they move in? Just cut the fuckin grass and fix the front gate.

This is my wife's excuse for not ripping out the yellow and green 1970's Villeroy & Boch bathroom. I have to close my eyes while I am having a piss

And then you wont know if you've missed.

Da Wiki!

I like his style.
The charity donations as well as suing the airport!

I hope it's him as he would be good for Villa.

A quick google search of Peter Ellison Aston Villa brings up, unsurprisingly, Villa fan sites. Made me chuckle.

Legion's Jesus now? I must've missed a Papal Bull.

All those accidents were for our sins.

Let's hope that's because he's ITK and has been sworn to secrecy and is not just being a bit of a knob.

I assume that it's somebody who is targeted (and probably bonused on how many radio listeners he can attract.

I wouldn't be surprised to hear Lerner say that Lambert has done what has asked of him, now that the club are financially better of either he will release more funds, or he has found extra investment.
