The Takeover Thread - Recon Group - NOW WITH NEW POLL

[Small Rodent]

Manager sacking and buying should only be allowed in the transfer window.

Much more fun.

[N'ZMAV]

I agree.

[Legion]

So do I.

[Villa in Denmark]

I'd go further.

No changing of management or squad members after the first game of the season has kicked off.

You've made your bed, now lie on it.

Wouldn't have made any difference to us, but it would have seen Norwich stay up at the expense of either Sunderland or Swansea.

[Stirchley Villain]

He's buying Aston Villa not a paper shop

 I wish someone had've told that to Randy before he took the plunge...

[Bad English]

You've made your bed, now lie on it.

Yes. Choose your leaders and place your trust.

[Percy McCarthy]

You've made your bed, now lie on it.

Yes. Choose your leaders and place your trust.

As their lies wash you down and their promises rust.

[Dave]

You've made your bed, now lie on it.

Yes. Choose your leaders and place your trust.

As their lies wash you down and their promises rust.

I reckon you must have some sort of bat signal.

Probably a red, white and blue disc appears in the sky.

[Bad English]

It's just a burning sky.

I think Hollis wanted to let the fans know what was happening in relation to the takeover and may have been a little hurried with the original 'they own five companies' error on the initial statement. I suspect the whole saga normally takes this long, that there is nothing wrong with the deal, that the financial details were handed in last Monday but it takes time to talk between different countries and cultures. In the meantime, Tony chats excitedly but because it's doesn't happen within a week, one twat of a talk sport journo takes a punt and tells us that there are obstacles and tries to gain some exposure. I think the deal WILL go through, that RDM will be appointed in the next week.

That keeps on burning bright?

It was amazing how he went from on the rocks, to ok but obstacles, to assured of the finance etc. Basically I think the league are looking hard at Banfil and Samuelson, and rightly so.

That keeps on burning bright?

It's a pretty green colour.

[Percy McCarthy]

It's just a burning sky.

That keeps on burning bright?

He's a greedy bastard who won't give up.

Tony X and AVFC, where the streets are paved with gold?
