AshVilla Posted May 29, 2016 Share Posted May 29, 2016 Even though Xia has said himself that 100 mill is already sat in a bank account to purchase the club? Somebody's lying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somebody's lying Well it's the type of thing that he would say even if he didn't have the money. The worry is that Xia is just an ambitious chancer who's is hoping to get (Chinese) investment in his "project". What I hope is him to be frontman for some serious money men who can pump millions into villa as it looks like he himself is not hugely wealthy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morley_crosses_to_Withe Posted May 29, 2016 Share Posted May 29, 2016 (edited) I wouldn't be too bothered. This deal stinks to the high heavens. Lerner has made bad decision after bad decision, so it's fair to think that he might have managed to **** this up and find the wrong 'buyer' for the club. There's something too shady about Xia and his mate Samuelson. And I find it hard to take Xia seriously after his bollocks theme park idea. Hollis should start again and find someone who's not so opaque from the outset. Edited May 29, 2016 by Morley_crosses_to_Withe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, struggle to trust anyone who cannot link to their own page, or he doesn't work for inside world football anymore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KSV Posted May 29, 2016 Share Posted May 29, 2016 Lol Hollis needs to make a statement. It's amazing that our official site had a meet our new owner on their before everything is official. Randy is so incompetent it's not funny. If he truly has picked this Xia fella and he's got no money.. well... just can't believe it. Cant be true.. surely. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
