    Lets not forget the mighty Peterborough Tanked the u23's at home last season

    Totally agree - but if he has some background loan to purchase Aston Villa - he might be personally bankrupt

    Yes - but it seems Xia is having problems with that.

    From what I have read - Xia has to consent to administration. The only way we go in administration if he doesn't - is via a HMRC winding up order - or court order - presumably from people owed money. The more positive (lol) spin this morning is that we just have to dump anyone on a high wage - that could take another 2 seasons. The concern is that Xia doesn't seem to have much idea is now running the club - and is unlikely to employ another CEO IMO

    Here we go very sad times indeed an administration FAQ https://www.pwc.co.uk/services/business-recovery/administrations/brs-admin-faq.html What is administration? A - Administration is one of a number of formal English insolvency procedures. There are three entry routes into administration in England: By an order of the court; Appointment by a qualifying floating charge holder; and
  8. Really whether they knew or not isn't the most pressing issue at the moment. We are where we are.
  9. I wonder if somewhere in the shadows Tony borrowed the £60m to buy us - so he can't actually sell us.
  10. UEFA FFP - allows for this - but not EFL FFP

    Can any accounts guru's tell me what actually happens in administration - my understanding is:- 1.The administrators control the assets - and sell to pay the creditors - the owner has no say in these sales 2.If someone agrees to buy all the assets then the club can sold for £1 - even against the owners wishes If that is correct there is going to be one hell of firesale - because Tony could loose everything he has put into the club? - its more about saving his ass than Aston Villa.

    We do humour at Aston Villa
  13. Doubtful - even we got a new owner there is still FFP. What I am feeling is that tony will sell everything to keep us afloat - in due course that will make the books look better - then he sells - god knows where will be playing our football though
  14. The chines government may not be involved - but the english one is https://www.expressandstar.com/sport/football/aston-villa/2018/06/06/tom-watson-calls-on-government-to-suspend-moves-that-could-push-aston-villa-into-the-abyss/ he clock is ticking for Aston Villa. I think Villa fans and football supporters across the country deserve to know what steps the Government will be taking to protect our football clubs and our national game from those who threaten its long term future."

    With hindsight the writting was on the wall with that half time game, where you kick the ball into the segment and win a prize. Historically it was a holiday, a 4k samsung tv - but towards the end of last season some poor fecker won a crate of a beer !!!!

    Loved forest in the cloughie era - great football
  17. Can't someone sponsor his beard ?
  18. All right then - HMRC issued notice of a winding up order - Why ? Because we hadn't paid the tax We are struggling with cash flow - Why - because the owner can not or will not cover a £6m monthly shortfall
  19. Proof of what ? Why do you think there have been all those headlines, the suspension of Wyness, and notice of an HMRC winding up order ? - do you honestly think none of that is true ?
