This might be clutching at straws but I think this could be a good sign. He is undoubtedly a Villa fan and actually attends Villa Park. He will apply his understanding of finance with the club's best interests at heart. He could be a very useful member of the board.
Every cloud an all that.

Fuck off Hollis you c***. Happy enough to talk about a boardroom appointment, but completely silent after failing to back the manager. Twat. 
I also have to agree with this even though I frown upon profanities used in haste.

Who is our head of media relations btw?

I believe Mervyn's brother Don is coming in for that role.

And his adopted son Wan will be heading up media relations in Asia.

Very good indeed, Mr G.   :D

Funnily enuff, I was wondering earlier why the Septics hadn't bestowed a 'Hype Man' on the Villa faithful to date. Job done if we get he of the electrocuted barnet down VP - assuming he's still alive.

Tommy Jordan. At least he sounds like a striker.

Jordan was working at the Scottish Herald and was recommended by Lambert. In true Villa style, Jordan's first day at Villa Park was for the announcement of new manager, Tim Sherwood.

It was mentioned 2 months ago that a new Chairman and board member were on the brink of being announced, so I doubt it.

A lot of things are mentioned. It doesn't mean they're true.

But it was because here he is.

Well he certainly got our point across when Sherwood was fired didn't he?

And two months ago he wasn't.
