Wyness deserved to go anyway after presiding over our efforts to buy our way to promotion over the last 2 seasons

There was always an element of fantasy about "Dr" Tony. A front for the Chinese govt buying foreign assets it seems, they turn off the tap and we sink into the abyss.

If Dr X doesn't have the money or is unable to get the money out of China then either way we are in the shit.

Is it possible that there is a third option that he does have the money, can get it out of China, but has now seen a return to the Premier League is not going to be easy as first thought and isn’t willing to invest any more money?  Like the two scenarios you have mentioned, this ends with us being up the creek without a paddle as well.

Anyway i think its unlikely we'll go into administration at the moment. It's far easier for HMRC to get their money by waiting for sales. Even in a firesale we'd easily get 5m and they know that.

A few comments re Chinese money and corporate debt following points by Rudy and pauliewalnuts.

If you already have overseas companies with funding outside China then you can move the funds relatively easily.
The Chinese government are trying to reduce capital flows unless they are for important strategic assets ( I think Paulie made this point). To our collective surprise, keeping Villa afloat would probably not rank highly here
China has a big issue with corporate debt and has been taking measures to improve it. Xia’s  ability to weave his way through this ( and I have no idea of the financial strength of his companies) would depend on the nature of his own business and the strength of his connections. These connections would need to be very strong and very current as Xi Jinping has been ensuring compliance with his wishes far beyond any Chinese leader in the past 40 years.

All of the above is generic information , and any individual or company will see things differently. We could all be fine, but we haven’t really got a clue about the true position of Recon and Xia’s intentions to fund us until he makes a statement. I’m not exactly shitting giggle turds though.

If somebody could pop an Inbetweeners picture in that would be grand.

Waey! Well in.

I'm all for it as long as Tony doesn't want to sell to him. Everytime we sell to a preferred buyer we get a bigger fuckwitt than the last one. We must be one owner off getting Trump at the moment.

He already follows Aston Villa and JT on his Instagram 😳

[PeterWithesShin]

I wonder why he follows Jimmy Tarbuck?

Panic over, I’ve found the remedy to all our ills...

Stan on the consortium

Consortium.

Were at NDA stage with another club, tipped off that XXFC were for sale( including intimate financial details), dropped interest in other club and "parties" made sure it was circulated around the press.

Shithousery on the grandest of scales.

[Brassneck]

The very last thing we want here is a consortium.

They have no money individually so have to band together and empty their pockets out to raise the pennies.
