BOF Posted April 20, 2016 Moderator Share Posted April 20, 2016 Normally I'd roll my eyes and move along, which is what I did with the Chinese Whispers article yesterday, but the Mervyn King quotes have given me hope and encouragement that there might be something in it. It's the hope that kills Hopefully it doesn't drag on, but these things usually do, if they do anything at all. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chindie Posted April 20, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted April 20, 2016 I'll be surprised if this is actually close. And I'll be astounded if the party that buys us, whenever that may be, is a 'good' owner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidcow Posted April 20, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted April 20, 2016 Well I have seen his interview and he is very categorical that there is a sale which he hopes will happen in a few weeks which will help Aston Villa get back where it should be This is not club PR, he has resigned after all. Spoke extremely well about the fans. Top geezer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paddywhack Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 I'll take a new owner and Southgate in charge over Lerner and Moyes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hippo Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 I wonder if B/K found the buyer - hence there venom at being shown the door (effectively) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh I can sympathise with it. Of course. I just think "anyone but Lerner" is a dangerous road to go down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOF Posted April 20, 2016 Moderator Share Posted April 20, 2016 That's why I don't really mind people saying it on here, so long as they're not part of the team picking the new owner 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post KJT123 Posted April 20, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted April 20, 2016 It's a shame because, even if we are going to be sold, I would've liked King and Bernstein to be a part of the board still. They both appear to be top class, respectable guys as well as being very good at what they actually do. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jareth Posted April 20, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted April 20, 2016 Leicester have shown anyone can win the league so can see why now is the time to buy villa. Plus the price cut. Lerner has one last chance to redeem himself. King seemed confident so knows the buyer. Good signs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
