Tony's Tweets

Best place to leave this I think.

Before the new Trinity was built was it possible to redevelop the magnificent old stand without destroying the façade? I know Rangers did this at Ibrox to their main stand and added a roof.

From the club's twitter account:

.@Dr_TonyXia will be taking part in a @Twitter Q&A on Weds afternoon. Get your questions in using #AskTheChairman

Uh-oh. How could this possibly backfire?

Can't say I'm that bothered considering Dr X is already as open as can be on Twitter. Virtually every day is a Q & A session with him.

It doesn't look like people are being twats yet although there is time for this to change.

One person asking what his favourite sex position is.

[Toronto Villa]

He's handling the questions well and I am sure there are moderators on hand to help him. It's no different to how he handles his own account really. The English is better so he's getting help or he's just taking more time. But either way these exercises for what they are worth remains a good way to stay in touch with the fans. It's a million miles from Lerner.

Dr TONY is one of our own!!

[Rudy Can't Fail]

Ha! The headlines were never going to be far behind..

Aston Villa owner thinks club will be bigger than Barcelona & Man United in 5 years [Tweet]

Aston Villa’s owner Tony Xia is either hugely optimistic or completely deluded. We’ll leave it for you to decide which.

Has anybody asked him where he buys his shoes?

Is there a summary of the answers he gave to questions?

[Toronto Villa]

The headlines were always going to twist what he said. He has lofty goals. Yes some like that one seem completely mental. But I would rather we reach for the stars and fall short trying than try to compete with the Charlton's and Wigan's of the world for players and our place in the game. Crystal Palace and West Ham are just lashing around the cash now so it's going to be bloody hard to compete once we get back up. But we should absolutely try to not only surpass them but go way beyond. That's all he's saying.

[Edvard Remberg]

He has really upped his dress style. Much better:)

There's a piece in the B'ham Mail but I'm not linking.

Bigger than Luton would be a start

From Tony :

Even we agreed to take the LC match as  checking game, some players are not worth being given chance.

Much as I agree with him, he needs to start acting more professional where this tweeting business is concerned.

It's just not grown up to be randomly tweeting this shit.

I'm glad he tweeted it.

I want to know why it's taken so long for the scales to fall from their eyes.

I'd take getting beat 18-1 by Luton if it meant Richards, Okore, Hutton, Gardner etc never play for us again.
