I have added a poll to express your level of worry.

The future's uncertain and the end is always near.

How do I vote for multiple options. As opposed to removing vote.

I count about 6 or 7 which could be applicable

Will I be pretty, will I be rich...

In which case you belong in a whole new category of worry!

Brilliant thanks for this it reminds me of how long we have had to put up with all this crap. Biggest club by far in the second city of the nation and we are a disaster and have been for years, i don't know why but ineptitude seems to haunt Villa Park like a bad smell. I don't know if there is a buyer in waiting, i suspect not which has me shaking my head at the latest calamity to befall our club but whoever does come in they better have deep pockets because the footballing gods havn't shone on us for a long time.

To be fair, they have given us small heath.

I'm trying a Villa Sabatical. Failed miserable by logging on here.  I'm attempting to stay clear of any forums, websites, social media sites,Radio Broadcasts in order for my own sanity.  When there's news I'm sure I'll hear it.  I'm off to enjoy my summer (just like Randu).

See you all in August.

Im chilled (no i'm not i'm panicing, to be honest there are that many threads running I'm not sure where to post!

What does worry me is the fact we aren't retaining people like Albrighton and were not renewing deals to important players

[Billy Walker]

I'm concerned at the moment.  It's a bit like when we all seemed to fall into a collective sleep when the old Trinity Road stand got knocked down; such was our collective sense of powerlessness and apathy that there was the feeling we could  do nothing to stop it.

I'd like the Villa Supporters' Trust to be putting more pressure on the club to keep the supporters informed and to keep putting statements out so that we get the message across about the kind of new custodians we need.  (That's not meant to read like a complaint against the Trust, by the way, it's just what I'd love to see happen.)

I'm concerned also that Man United supporting Keith Harris is entrusted to finding us a buyer.  Let's imagine some real big-hitting potential owners come on the scene looking for a club - would he really steer them towards us or would he try to keep them up his sleeve to match up with his own club somewhere down the line? 

I have no idea at all how any of this business works so I could just be talking out of my backside but those are my worries and concerns as it stands.

[Witton Warrior]

I don't give a shit but am really ANGRY!!

[Legion]

Excellent set of questions.

I'm not worried about the future, I'm pretty confident that things will all get sorted with a good new owner as I trust Randy not to sell us to a charlatan.

I also don't think the squad is as bad as people think, it's just missing a couple of key players, a coaching team who will concentrate on technique and a decent tactician in charge.

What I am worried about though is the present, there's a lot of things to address to get to the point above, the main one being the coaching team, but I'm not sure how effective we can be in fixing those issues if the takeover doesn't happen by the end of the world cup.  I'm not sure I trust Lambert to get decent coaches and without those we're still stuck with a squad of players who have the basics to be premier league but are drifting away from it.

What a pity a couple of thousand more didn't get off their arses and protest at the rumoured appointment of mcleish.
