Thats a real shame and signifies a new low for me.
I go along with others and offer thanks and appreciation for the work youve put in Dave.

Dave are you considering writing a resignation letter to the owners explaining your position?


Is there any point?
You are probably in a better position to judge this the I am.
I have written to them without reply, your name would vary more weight but I have no idea as to whether they give a damn.

As of now H&V are no longer represented on the FAB. It serves no purpose and frankly I've got better things to do with my time.
Sorry it's come to this, Dave but I fully understand your position. Very many thanks for all you've done to represent us over the years.

Chris Heck will be sad to see the departure of the only person to have profited more from Villa fans than he has.

Sentiments echoed. It's sad. The cynic in me says this is exactly what they want though, the fans to back off , not be heard or considered and it's a sad state of affairs . Everything that's going on off pitch shows they don't care about the fans other than how much money they can bleed from you .

I cling to the hope that the owners are not fully aware of the negativity that Heck is creating. I might be naive but I do know that what Heck is doing is not in the owners long term interest.

This whole episode has made me think more than ever about the motives of our owners. The more I do I conclude that the plan is to establish the club as a regular CL participant and then sell or one buys the other out.  Naz seems to be the one more attached to the club, so if that’s the way it goes I’d like it to be him. Edens, I think he strikes me as one more aligned with the current pricing strategy. I have nothing to back any of this up with, it’s just my feeling.

Unai Emery is absolutely critical to all aspects of this club. He is basically holding the club together. What are the Board playing at

There are only 2 members on the Board of Directors for our Football club, these are the owners - so are you saying that you want the owners out of our football club?

I agree the off field issues do need sorting and I am sure that there are alot of employees of the club working hard trying to sort out these issues, but surely we do not want Nas or Wes out of our club?

There are about 6 or 7. I think I’ve mentioned this before - not sure if it was you who said it was 2.

None at all. Credit to you!

Unfortunately that piece just smells of politicians answers. The disabled one for example. Complete disgrace
