Someone needs a kick up the arse, and I don't mean Tsibola.

Wrong is Tsibola  who needs the kick  up the arse, unfortunately it should have been a size 13 last season, if he doesn`t buckle down soon

it will mean another very promising kid on the scrapheap

Agree he deserves a chance, very intimidating and never seemed rushed

Realistically when you look at the squad and even the amount of players available in friendlies this season you can see we should be looking to offload players before we bring more in.

There are at least 5 or 6 players that we should be looking to offload, if we can get bring in 2-3 players on lower wages than some of the players we have offloaded we are already in a better position.

Does anyone know how much Tony Xia can invest himself through sponsorship that would be taken into account on FFP? For example Recon are now going to be displayed on the match day shirts, is it possible that he could have sponsored the club indirectly with 200 million meaning that FFP is not a danger for us for the foreseeable future?

Its what Man City do to get around FFP

You're wrong.

Again how do you know for sure?, if you are right you may well have to find somewhere else to moderate.

Good debate that. The numbers say otherwise. 

The "well and truly screwed" doesn't necessarily mean we'll be going into administration, but I can see an awful lot of belt tightening, wage bill reduction and transfers out (with very little inwards) which could, in turn, mean we're stuck floundering around in the Championship for a very, very long time.

So, well and truly screwed, maybe not, but very screwed...yes. 

How do you know how much money has come into AVFC since those "numbers"?

NO WE ARE NOT

Welcome Sam, if you are reading this forum ignore the moaners, you will be fine, just what we needed.

Yeah just saw and edited. Shame for the club as it will be hard to keep all 3 motivated and I hope Bree gets at least 20 games. But maybe Hutton will go if he is told he isnt wanted and the club get a decent and fair offer for him and he gets more than a 1 year contract offer. He offers enough at this level for a few clubs to want him I would think 

I think you`ll find he's wanted.

KEEP ALAN

Described as "piebald"

 

Perhaps those of you who hate our new kits would prefer this little outfit the Villa wore in 1884

It's a shame that people at home can knock up better kits at home for a laugh compared to people who earn God knows what. 

Unfortunately the people at home who knock up kits at home for a laugh, have to go to school on workdays.
