I don't like the way they don't show on the mobile site though.

This is like the Star Trek episodes when everybody got infected with a drunk virus.

I volunteer to find out how realistic Data actually is.
Ooooh.





By coincidence it's on SciFi right now!

See that Wang Jianlin fella has said his group will buy 3 more sports clubs this year. They do seem to be trying to build a profile around the world, and we would be a much better buy than Albion.

Atletico Madrid, AC Milan...and West Bromwich Albion?! I don't think so! Very good chance these lot were one of the 3 interested in buying us.

I take it that there have been no sightings down B6 of extremely rich men sporting brand new Villa tattoo's then?

If this proposed takeover is on you would assume that it is very very close to being finalised. Either way Randy Lerner will have have to make a statement as to his intentions regarding the club sooner or later.

Or will he?

We are what 2-3 weeks into the 6 week exclusivity period. Mid July this should be wrapped up.

If it's due to completed mid-July, that's a couple more weeks not 3-4 weeks.
