I doubt they will they likely see him as a quick and easy £10 million fine when he breaches FFP. I am sure there are lots of people that get past fit and proper because they have that much money they'll run foul of the rules making the Football League a quick buck in the process.

Rob182 Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 I've been sceptical for the last 5 years, so excuse me for taking this moment to enjoy a little optimism for once. Haven't you heard? You can't be optimistic, otherwise you'll 'just end up disappointed'. Instead you have to be a negative, miserable drain on everyone else's energy. That way, you'll never have a 5-minute moment of disappointment..... or friends to bother you. The villa way. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaJ100 Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 With regards to the scrub players, the ones with any ability will know now they have to shape up as our clout means we can just bin them off for better players, rather than being held ransom by them. The duff players, Xia is probably writing out a cheque at this moment 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam3773 Posted May 18, 2016 Author Share Posted May 18, 2016 Dare we dream? Good ownership, good investment, hated by every club in the championship, promoted to the PL.. I'm having a beer and I shall sleep well tonight. We just got relegated. It's always darkest before the dawn. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PompeyVillan Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 I'm not excited about this... Yet. It's the foreign owner thing and it's partly a China thing. My gut reaction tells me this is an opportunistic political maneuver. I hope I'm completely wrong. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
