As Mr Fear said when he was on SSN. We all say ITSOP (which is internationally famous now since its been on SSN assume so well done who ever it was who came up with it)........ In the board room with the Cheque Book Open.
Wow its just like last summer all over again but a takeover instead of baros or berson the summer before...... we got them in the end!
:yawn: :roll: :yawn: :roll: :yawn: :roll:
Dont know how much more of this i can take! There is a new bidder every day or some one drops out or some one is spotted or Oneil is set to be appointed or Phillips is leaving or Doug is staying.
I for one really hope Ellis stays.............................

I cant afford to renew my season ticket now ive spent the money i usually set aside. :oops:
The chairman said he sold it off so cheap so that the new owners could have more money to spend on transfers rather than lining his own pockets. What a novel idea that is... He also said it was because of his love for sunderland.
Im sure doug would consider such a thing.
*take with a pinch of salt if you want to*
Bumped into someone i know at villa who untill a few weeks ago had a match day job at villa park. (I assume hes stopped now as he has his exams comming up). He told me that it had all gone to shit at villa park and that the stewards hadnt been paid for weeks. He said that if you really pressured villa for the pay, then they would eventually pay up. He thinks that Ellis is going to sell and leave the owners with the responsibility of paying them.
Ok so i doubt his takeover speculation about the pay is correct but im a fair bit worried if we arent paying the stewards on time! Does anyone else have any info on this for anyone they know who is a steward?
I trust the bloke who told me not to make up a load of shite as well. It its actually true then maybe we are in more financial shit than we thought.
Ironic that Ellis is demanding they back the manager :roll:
Seriously tho, he is doing the right thing by ensuring that money will be spent. I like the way he talks about "building a brand", something that villa have criminally ignored.
Can i just point out that a year or so ago kiddy were being taken over in the summer. This resulted in no transfer activity and the manager missed out on over 8 players that he needed and the issue was only resoloved late on.
Kiddy went down that season.
according to my housemate a journo said that it was Pathetic that we couldnt afford a loan to which oleary just said it was Ellis again. Nice to see some one actually mention the "P" word.
considering we get the "fact" that we are so well run financially rammed down our throats by Ellis and the likes. Surely when people look at the books they would be delighted to make a bid??? :shock:
