maqroll Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Does anyone think that all the rumours of a takeover started by the TBAR site have only fuelled the negativity surrounding the club following the last 2 results? It feels like there was a glimmer of hope which seems to have been snatched away and all we are left with is the reality of how bad we are and the fact we are surviving by the skin of our teeth. If the rumours turn out to be lies I hope that site is boycotted and fails miserably. Very bad methods of messing with fellow villa fans to increase traffic. If they turn out to be true then fair play to them. Was the rumor/story started by TBAR or The Telegraph? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacketspuds Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 The only glimmer of hope I hold on to is Lerner's slightly non-commital statement a couple of weeks ago. Fingers crossed he is selling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBAR were the first to say that a takeover was about to happen but i think the papers started reporting later that same day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

islingtonclaret Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 AVFCMysterman is a person pretending to be the mysteryman that used to frequent this site. That twitter account sounds like a teenager desperately attempting to be involved in the inner workings of a football club when in reality is scouring through several Villa (and non-Villa forums) and reposting tidbits as fact - hoping to strike gold. There really couldn't be a bigger waste of ones time than actually reading what they post. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cliffy Biro Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Wonder why one of our website editors follows that mysteryman account though? Don't get me wrong i think accounts like that are pathetic and full of bs but that seems a little weird to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isa Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 (edited) The Twitter Mysteryman is a fake. He was the same one who was adamant that we were hiring Moyes even when it became very clear that we would be hiring McLeish. I thought we had seen the last of him but alas...

He was the same one who was adamant that we were hiring Moyes even when it became very clear that we would be hiring McLeish. I thought we had seen the last of him but alas... It is a kid who set up that account based on the info MysteryMan was posting on here. He'd just parrot what ever MM posted. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
