VillanousOne Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 i wish we would actually get a concrete update from the club, but they really don't seem to want to 'manage expectations' do they. There is nothing to report, we’re for sale thats it. What do you want a weekly updating saying we’re not sold, whats the point of that? yes, i demand - a changing of the guard style ceremony where a marching band welcomes the arrival of our head of PR who walks to a plinth with a weekly announcement accompanied by fan fare, laser show and optional dwarf recreations of famous local derby victories.. 'friends Romans, Villa fans, I hearbye announce, nothing has occured with your beloved Club this week, thank you' that would reduce this thread to just a few pages of guff rather than nearly 600. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieFacE Posted June 20, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted June 20, 2014 This just isn't going to happen is it. I believed so much that the club would be sold, or at least Randy had something lined up. But now my hope is gone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TreeVillan Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Didn't realise Randy's priority was keeping Villa talk posts to a minimum, guess you learn something new every day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AntrimBlack Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Lerner has totally lost interest in the club, and wants out, it is just a matter of when and what sort of position we are going to be in when he goes. He is obviously going to hold out for the best price he can get in order to minimise his losses, but the longer he holds on the more difficult things will become for us. And every team that flirts constantly with relegation every season eventually gets relegated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeyp102 Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 I still say July we will have a new owner.. Think they are waiting for World Cup to finish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smetrov Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 (edited) I still say July we will have a new owner.. Think they are waiting for World Cup to finish Why would they wait for the world cup to finish ? Is our new chairman playing in it ? I can't see how buying\selling shares in Aston villa is on hold because of the world cup - no logic that I can see to it...

Popular Post poitier Posted June 20, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted June 20, 2014 I think they should have postponed the world cup until we had found new owners. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyp102 Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Well it was rumoured before that an American owner would want Klinnsman as manager. If so they may not want to disrupt the American National team during the WC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
briny_ear Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 I refer you to the case of a chap called van Gaal. Seems no reason at all why the future employment plans of a manager should "disrupt" the progress of his current job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Feidhlim Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Well it was rumoured before that an American owner would want Klinnsman as manager. If so they may not want to disrupt the American National team during the WC. And a takeover would have to happen at the same time as an appointment of a new manager? Don't be silly...

It's not the world cup, it's Nigel Kennedy's summer tour. Inspired by Louis Tomlinson's takeover at Doncaster, Nigel will be presented as our new chairman after his last concert in Dublin on July 12th. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I think that there is a realisation hitting people that a bottom half team with a team made up mostly of highly paid has beings or Championship level players in desperate need of investment is not actually worth £200million of any billionaires money?

GENTLEMAN Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 I actually think we have a group of players with lots of potential; all that we are lacking is the extra funding to push us on (which a new owner can hopefully provide). Blaming the players or Lambert for the takeover not happening (immediately) is crazy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
