I read somewhere that Todd Boehly is worth around $1.3b, so he ain't hard up for a few quid.

I reckon it's new US owners hence Tom Fox leaving Arse for us.

Because the only reason somebody would accept a big promotion is to work for somebody who comes from the same country as him, but crucially it can't be the person who comes from the same country as him who gave him the job in the first place?

Right-o.

I'm standing by my theory.

Armand Hammer, founder of Occidental Oil and one of the world's richest men, did not have the proverbial pot to piss in (relatively speaking) when he was 70.   On the other hand Walt Disney was bankrupt before he was 24.   Money does not give a shit about your date of birth.

I'm not sure what would make us 'America's English Team' over other Premier League sides owned by Americans.

Tell em Aston hall is Downton abbey and Sean Bean is a Villan not a blade and that should do it

And William Shakespeare would have been a Villa fan, had he lived another 300 years.
