Keener window-cleaner Posted August 6, 2016 Share Posted August 6, 2016 Sorry if this already has been discussed earlier in the thread, can't directly remember, but is Aston Villa owned by Tony Xia personally or by the Recon group? The club statement said that the club had been sold to the Recon Group, but the homepage says that Tony Xia is the owner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted August 6, 2016 Share Posted August 6, 2016 The Recon Group own us, but XIa owns the Recon Group. Although I notice he only puts ' Chairman and CEO of RECON Group ' on his twitter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I notice he only puts ' Chairman and CEO of RECON Group ' on his twitter. So is the Recon Group owned to 100% by Xia? Still, if it is the Recon Group that owns Aston Villa, the official homepage shouldn't say that Xia is "Owner and Chairman" should it? I'm not in to some conspiracy theory here :-) just interested in knowing if it is the person Xia or his company that owns us. For example, say that someone buys the majority shares of the Recon Group (if it's some kind of Ltd company) then that person/company would actually control Aston Villa and not Xia right. Likewise if there would be some kind of forced restructure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Likewise if there would be some kind of forced restructure. Maybe it shouldn't say that, but by the same theory Randy Lerner never directly owned Aston Villa. It's not as simple as what you suggest. If he wanted he could sell shares in the Recon Group and separate out Aston Villa from that group and retain 100% ownership, which as far as I am aware is actually owned by Recon Sports Group Ltd and is at the current time it's only asset. He is far more likely to sell individual assets from within the group should he ever wish to make a quick buck. He has history with that, hence the £500m he has set aside for Aston Villa from the sale of another of his businesses. By the way, it's worth pointing out at this stage that I believe 100% that he is legit. That his portfolio is as he describes it to be. It might be Chinese money, but they're not impenetrable. We'd know by now if he was dodge. IMO. I have a business. It has a name that isn't my name. It owns three vans. I feel comfortable saying that I own those vans.

I own the company that owns those vans. Seriously, I do. No joke. I suppose he should change it to "Owner of Recon Group who own Aston Villa and Chairman of Aston Villa". But it doesn't really scan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
