Probably off topic.

Take a look at @JackWoodwardAV's Tweet: https://twitter.com/JackWoodwardAV/status/738429780685688832?s=09
On the Simon Mayo/ Mark Kermode film review podcast recently they read out an email from one of the guys who does the match day music and announcements at VP.  The last home game of the season was his last ever due to the cut backs. They played a brief recording of his colleague unknowingly reading out some obscure film references he had incorporated in the script.

So the media team and player liaison officer have gone today? Does that mean that any club media will be outsourced or just disappear?

Are some of these redundancies nesscery?  Can't think that those employees are on that much money, and I presume we need someone to do their jobs.  Besides which we've just had an influx of money or will do when the takeoever is confirmed.  I feel bad for them as none of them have had any part in the mess the club currently finds itself in.

The highly competent lady who deals with the clubs archives has been dispensed with.She goes shortly as well.Will we have any admin staff left to run the club? Getting rid of Lorna just does not make sense on any level.

Unfortunately with any business that is losing money, cuts have to be made, and that usually means that people lose there jobs

I feel so sorry for anyone who loses there job, I have been in that situation and it is awful

But at least Gabby and Co, the real culprits get to keep there obscene weekly wages going into their bank accounts! and they will all have a nice few weeks relaxing in the sun and getting over the tiredness and exhaustion of there efforts last season

Very odd decision, if it's true.

The club will soon get £47M in parachute payments, plus presumably several millions from the new owners. Can't see this as being that necessary at the moment. The last remnants of possibly the worst owner in Villa's history.

The girl I know who works in Finance has managed to retain employment but they have incorporated 2 job titles into 1, made the original 4 jobs redundant posts and employed her in an entirely new role! To say there is massive upheaval would be an understatement

Strange that Lorna Mclleland has gone and I did quite like Jack, so good luck to them both. Surprised about Alan Perrins as well, he's been here years.
