Popular Post CarewsEyebrowDesigner Posted August 1, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted August 1, 2016 Lerner, even with his faults, at least left us with a reputation as a sound and fair club to do business with. That has a value all of its own, and something I don't want trashed by some easily rattled baby. This kind of behavior is weak. Being unable to take criticism is weak. I don't buy this Trumpian notion that attacking people is fair game because it shows you are strong. In truth it is the opposite. And if I hear one more numpty complain about political correctness... christ above. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jareth Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 Holloway slates AVFC (not for the first time) says we'll finish 16th yet the bookies have us as third favourites. Fact is that some fans have had it in for Tony since day 1 and will attack him given any opportunity. Why? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vive_La_Villa Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 (edited) I think for his own sake he should stop tweeting to Villa fans because there will be a time when things go bad and he will get attacked big time. Couldn't give a **** what he tweets about Holloway. Personally do not think it shows Xia in a good light but I'm not going to lose sleep over it. As for theres talking about our reputation being held intact by Lerner. In case you hadn't noticed he made us the laughing joke of the country!

I get more worried by the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villan4Life Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 (edited) Apparently Tony's Twitter account is moderated and posts by Chinese guy called Hu. Think he the guy who has been running the Chinese website version of Avfc for while and lives over here. But still doesn't explain if it is him why his English is so bad as well.

Hollway expressed his opinion, Dr Tone replied......the world does actually work this way! and please no BS about 'he shouldnt say it because he is our owner' Mr Lerner was polite and personable.....what did that achieve? What world do you live in? Someone expresses their opinion so it is fair game to slate your career, and everything you have worked for? Charming.

There's nothing fickle about wanting someone who effectively represents the club to act professionally, whether his stewardship is a success or not. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
