Brian Little Speaks

Sale in the next few weeks if you are interested. And no new manager until then. Put the razor blades down for now, I am worried about you.

I'll believe it, mate, when I see it. As for razor blades, sorry but I don't use em.

I can tell from your knuckles.

And what's that supposed to mean? An accusation that I'm a knuckledragger, just cos I don't see it the same as the other two who cannot answer me???

It was a joke suggesting you were of simian nature. If I wanted to call you out as a Dogshitter you can rest assured it wouldn't have been done with hidden meaning. I am fed up of the race to the bottom (just in case you think it, I am not suggesting you are gay) from some of our fans to try to be the angriest about everything all the time. Whether real or not.

Quotes from Clampy and GordonCowansisthegreatest

"What utter rubbish."

"You obviously missed the point that there is a cut off point where a manager will be appointed, probably by the end of May, if the sale hasn't gone through by then?"

Utter rubbish? How/why?
Missed the point? Where and when and who said there was a cut off point? And  probably by the end of May? Sale by when?
Sorry, but I think that shows you've obviously missed the point!!!

I think this was the point.

Cheers ViD, I couldn't reply earlier as I've been out for a couple of hours badminton followed by a civilized natter over a pint or two.
Some of us do have another life away from the misery;-)

Yes I read all of the articles, and you still don't get it.
I suggest you read the fans comments in the Birmingham Mail article, especially those of "grahamhs and Mcgrath1874".

[Villa in Denmark]

I only copied the link address for the Rag Week mag. I won't contaminate either my own or my employers IT equipment with the shit on their website, but some people seem to enjoy the outrage of stating how shit it is by repeatedly visiting. Others believe the utterances of Greg Evans as though they were the 5th Gospel.

So you'll have to help me out and tell me what do I still not get?

1. Hollis has openly said that he's negotiating with interested parties.
2. It's widely reported that these interested parties are 1 from China, 1 from USA and 1 from UK.
3. It's further acknowledged that for the sake of planning for next season, if there's no deal by an arbitrary date, widely believed to be the end of May, the existing board will appoint a manager they've already identified, believed by the press to be Pearson and task him with getting us ready for next season.

Reasonable conclusions from that are that Hollis believes that at least one of these interested parties will proves serious enough to hand over the required, unspecified, amount of cash and that that deal can be brokered before month end so as not to require the contingency plan.

If those 2 comments you refer to profess to be any form of ITK, I'll politely decline to pay heed to them. ITK on boards like this are more likely to mean I Took Ketamine than In The Know. Anyone blabbing it in the comments section of a 4th rate comic is slightly less serious than Leslie Nielsen on Hippy Crack.

[GordonCowansisthegreatest]

Can't beat a spot of mixed doubles, to work up a thirst ;-)

[eddiemunster]

I doubt if the comments by grahamhs or McGrath1874, are made by people in the know.
They just happen to reply with how they feel about the club and the present situation.
I suppose that they must be on Ketamine or Hippy Crack then?

As for you don't get it,
I will believe the club is sold when it is stated as sold on the clubs website.
I will believe we have a new manager, when I see him holding a villa scarf/shirt at Villa Park, after signing his contract.
I will believe that we have new owners, when it happens.

We did have two directors, who we all believed, would be part of a new beginning, but we all saw how RL screwed that up.
I accept that you and others have a point of view that is contrary to mine, but I reserve the right to reply, when I'm told that what I post is ;
"Utter Rubbish"
" You obviously missed the point that there is a cut off point where a manager will be appointed, probably by the end of May, if the sale hasn't gone through by then?"

As I have previously stated, the season ends at the end of this week and we then have approx. 14 weeks till next season starts.

We'll see if Mr Hollis is to be trusted, very soon, won't we.

[Clampy]

Just because we haven't been sold yet and we don't have a manager yet doesn't mean it's not going to happen. It's as simple as that really.
