It's very embarrassing, but it doesn't have to be over any significant sum.

I like issuing winding up petitions, great fun and it usually gets the attention required and my cheque arrives.

My problem with him isn't that he's a football man, but quite the opposite. He's a businessman who sees football as a way to earn a good living and would be off tomorrow if he got a better offer. 

The chances of a better offer look slimmer and slimmer by the minute.

The club really does need to be specific now about why he's been suspended.  Has it been reported anywhere how long he will remain suspended?

Unfortunately no it does not.  The statement is in response to the HMRC news (and very quick and deliberately brief I’m sure.)

Sky are saying that HMRC are giving us time to pay the tax bill

Enough time for Tony to check between the cushions of his sofa. This stinks.

Hmm.  Odd if they've suspended him for a late tax payment.

This type of stuff happens all the time in finance offices.
Bill will have gone to Wyness to sign off. Keith's probably on holiday. Invoice not paid. HMRC not on payment run.
As a result Villa get winding up order and it's headline news.

I work in Credit Control and Accounts Payable. Seen this happen millions of times.

Oh yeh just normal stuff.

Tony isn't looking anywhere though is he, the club meets this. The club ought to have met compliance.

Wyness has been suspended, which ought to tell you that this was not a tactic to delay payment by exercising a discretionary period from HMRC. Like I do with DQs. Ahem.

Decided FC Villa of Aston is a crap name, so i'm forming 'Villa1874 FC of the Kingdom of Aston'. Give me a V!

If you want to buy the url off me, you can PM me.

We are going back to Villa being a football equivalent of Crossroads.  Shaking scenery unbelievable plots rooms full of divas and Benny in a woolly hat.

Certainly feels that way.  Why the club needs to be quick and specific about why our CEO has been suspended.

Unlike him. /cheapshot

My guess is that the CEO has been suspended because he has had the hair dryer off Tony Xia.

Looks like they put Benny in  charge of Finance.

[Walmley_Villa]

From Sky news article: "One source suggested that he had been suspended after informing Mr Xia that the club would have to file for administration if it could not meet its tax obligations."
