Could be worse, I suppose.

Could be Russell Brand!

Anyway if we win the FA Cup and stay up Randy might decide to stay.

Tony fucking Adams? Well that's the most underwhelming thing I think I've ever heard. I'd rather still have Lerner and Tom Fox, thanks.


If a failing regime wanted to boost their popularity, a good way of going about it would be to offer Tony Adams as an alternative.

Why would they want to buy us, when they can have West Brom?

I honestly can't conceive how anyone would want Tony Adams as the face
of their consortium.

If they're looking to raise a couple of hundred mill to buy us, they're deluded: the working capital requirements will bury them without trace. Furthermore, I read somewhere that they are talking about raising debt to fund the deal - sounds like a Glazer strategy to me: saddle the club with loads of debt-equity and then scoop out what value they can without any personal risk in it.

No thanks.

It's rare that we reach a complete consensus on a topic here on H&V. I reckon that this is the first subject to manage it in a long time.

If Tony Adams gets control of Villa I will personally burn Villa Park to the ground then hand myself in to the police.

He is reported to "not be the current frontrunner of those still in the process".  So whilst Adams can fuck right off the positive view is that there are better offers out there.

Pretty sure he admitted being a Tory as well so for that reason, and all the others, I'm out.

Talking about conflagrations, I saw a holiday rep type mockumentary recently when some halfwit rep stuck a firework up his arse and set fire to it to celebrate his birthday. I'd really like to do that to Tony if any of this is true.

A consortium that hasn't even got half the capital required and has a plan to put the club in debt for the other half...yeah sounds like this could have some merit. Oh wait...fuck off Tony Adams you knob!

I'm pretty sure this will be the first in a long line of tedious takeover reports we'll see in the media over the next few months.
