Tony Adams Fronted Takeover

[ACVilla]

Just being reported on Sky News, sounds an horrific proposition.

[villadelph]

care to elaborate?

[Tokyo Sexwhale]

Oh, really?

[aev]

I think he is seeking backing for a takeover.

Which sounds a little bit vague to me (thankfully).

[The Villa Werewolf]

FUCK.

THAT.

[ACVilla]

Sky News have just reported that Tony Adams has approached "the city" to help finance a bid to buy Aston Villa with Goldman Sachs also being approached by him.

Just being reported on Sky News, sounds an horrific proposition.

Sure they weren't talking about his overtaking?

Dear Tony Adams,

Fuck off.

Lots of love,

Whenever I hear him speak he comes across as a tool.

[PaulWinch again]

Absolutely no bloody way. The guy is a loon and an idiot at the same time.

His net worth can't be more than £15m at this point in his life. How is that even possible.. no wealthy consortium would trust that drunk.

Remember his views on managing us?

Adams has had two (very unsuccessful) stints at both Wycombe and Portsmouth but now has no further interest in working anywhere but Arsenal. He said: “I’ve done the lower leagues and it’s a different style of managing,” he said. “No disrespect but I don’t want to be Swansea boss, either. They probably don’t want me. Aston Villa? What’s the point? What can you do with them? So it’s the Arsenal or nothing and I’m not ready for that.

[Clampy]

Have T'Bar annouced him as chairman yet?

[PaulWinch again]

To be honest why would anybody with sufficient money to buy a Premier League club want to have him as the front man?
