Meeting people for the first time and being asked "who do you support mate?" and for the first time in my life hesitating as I am worried that they are going to laugh at me! This is the lowest of the low points in 34 years of supporting this wonderful club. Finally some hope. I am going to enjoy the climb to greatness and savour every last second of it. I am going to shamelessly rub my work colleagues noses in it, remembering all the shit they have given me this season. Onwards and upwards!! VTID Hide contents Assuming the new owners are filthy rich of course. Mate, you might be a villain, I am most certainly a villan. Cheers. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osmark86 Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 Considering the complete absence of net neutrality in China there might just be some sense to it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw an article about a week ago saying Recon (if it is the same company) are involved in a space travel program in Croatia . "Chinese corporation Joint Rui Kang Group (Recon). According to information on the website Recon, it is a business system that manages 22 brands in high tech, agriculture, logistics, transport and construction. Recon reportedly has assets worth more than 13.5 billion euros." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd think we'd have something more substantial by the club if it was reportable. We have about as much chance of it being Wang Jianlin than that article being proven true, it's just a rehash of previous Chinese articles claiming it was a 100% done written last month.

handsworthlion Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 Just seen this on youtube and it all tied in... (daydreaming) but it is not beyond the realms of possibility.

He is a business man. You buy low and you sell high, or in his case buy low and keep us as a revenue generator. It may seem absurd right now that we would generate any kind of income worthy of someone as rich as him, but he can advertise us to all of China. He could have official AVFC stores in every shopping mall he owns, we could be THE club in China. As we excel and grow into the global force that we can with Jianlin's almost unlimited funds our brand reach extends even further not to mention so does our wealth and revenue. So sure why Championship Villa? But to a business man we are a real coup going for reportedly as low as £60 million. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
