Fans Worried Over Villa Future

[David_Nab]

Has anyone else been listening to Danny Kelly on Talksport tonight (yes I know, but he's always excellent, and a fan of this website too BTW)?

I suspect Simon Jordan knows more about the current state of Villa than he's letting on...don't shoot the messenger!

Your point being?

Jordan suggested he wouldn't be surprised if we changed owners soon ....he is a big Bruce fan so could have gotten his info from him perhaps ...

I am now deeply worried.

Add me to the list too

[john e]

it’s a bad thing that’s happened

[Smirker]

What does it mean for the club? And I think it probably deserves its own thread.

I did not want to see the return of this thread

Worse case scenario - Winding up order is successful - does the club fold and have to start over again with a new title? Are we demoted or deducted points ?
I'm sure it won't come to this as I believe there are numerous clubs in similar or worse debt than us

Our biggest local derby would be Sutton Coldfield in Evo-Stick South

[Steve67]

Nah, we could play the Blues.  It would still be THEIR biggest game, even if it was a pre-season game.

It is not looking good, but I would like someone to check Dr Tony Xia's Finances to prove he is rich or broke. 

I want to know why Chinese Government wouldn't let him spend his/his company fortune.

More likely than an agreements is reached with HMRC.

Club is a mess. If Wyness was trying to get outside investment without owners knowledge then we have a problem as very rarely do you get succesful clubs when owner and chief executive are pulling in different directions.

Last season sort of worked as everyone was after that one goal of promotion so you have a rare year of unity on and off the pitch.

We don't know the squad or manager we'll have for next season and now we don't know the chief exec. Could well be the owner aswell in next few weeks.

As it stands anyone expecting a promotion push next season is a little bit crackers. More likely to be a relegation battle.

Because it doesn’t exist and never did.

The shoes, the damn shoes.

He managed to pull together the money to purchase the club in the first place and pump some capital in. He can’t be a complete charlatan. Can he?

Maybe it’s as said, a short term cash flow issue and the tax will be paid this week?
