Fuckin joke. Well, O'Neill walked out days before the beginning of the 2010/11 season and look how wonderful the rest of that decade turned-out for us...True, but MON was a total cnut.

Of course our current owners have been brilliant to date, but they now have an important decision to make. Are we a selling club who may or may not make statement signings OR are we a club that retains its best talent whilst bringing in statement signings? Their answer will show how serious they are about their project/vision for Aston Villa.

Lets be fair everything to date they and Purslow have said and done has been top drawer so let's just see how they play this. I'm sure they have a clear plan on how to address city and any other issue that arises
I have absolute full faith that these owners will be doing everything they can to deliver the right outcome for Aston Villa, and I think most people here will agree with me. I honestly don’t think we could be in better hands right now. Up the Villa.
Guess we aren't another Chelsea or Man City looking to break the mould. That's a real shame. They have been and they are top owners. But the dream is a little dead right now and its very hard to buy into the project of European football.

It will make their job of selling the ambition of the club to new players a little more difficult.
