Apparently he is very private and doesn't like the press intrusion so as long as he goes to games and occasionally does an interview let his CEO take all the crap. I'm sure we will all be happy with that. We need a "Daniel Levy" An absolute C*** But our C*** in our best interests 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The longer it takes means we are stuck unable to sell or sign player's while other clubs can get on with their business. Still we can finally see light a the end of the dark tunel...or can we????

blandy Posted June 3, 2016 Moderator Share Posted June 3, 2016 1 hour ago, Stevo985 said: Does it? It makes it much harder. Reason being the bloke signing the cheque is the owner of the club, which is Randy Lerner, until the takeover. So there's obviously a question of a process of trust and agreement that the manager has to go through with the not yet owner, then the not yet owner has to go through another process with RL. Then on top of that the staff currently in place may/will not be the ones to be in charge next season, so there's an issue with a manager just appointed, without his own scouts and the board and people to negotiate contracts are not in place. So yeah. Nigh on unable, but not quite impossible. We did sign Petrov while the last takeover was in progress, but not yet agreed. Rules have tightened since then, though. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevo985 Posted June 3, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted June 3, 2016 We have a manager in place. I'm sure we have an idea of what the budget will be next season. I@d be very surprised if everyone is just sat on their arse doing nothing until the takeover is finalised. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
007√ Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 Well if we want a c*** of a CEO (which would be perfect), the man we need to hire is Nicola Cortese! He would be the perfect acquisition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

007√ Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 Show some ambition Mr/Dr. Xia, sign Nicola Cortese as our CEO who runs everyday business/commercial revenue. Then go out and sign Sevilla's Sporting Director Monchi. We would be completely set for years to come! You said it yourself, you want to be in the pinnacle of European football again, well there's a start and your first steps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyrusr Posted June 3, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted June 3, 2016 Just to update on all things on Tony's minds Quote 最容易洞察一个人人性本质的两个人生时刻：一是一个人在挫折和低谷时候能否继续保持做人做事的尊严；以及，一个人在得志和处于高位时能否拥有理智冷静不忘乎所以的克制能力。--夏建统也只有经历过巅峰和低谷的俱乐部，才会成就伟大的传奇！@阿斯顿维拉足球俱乐部 Which in my fantastic translation skills (Google) says something like this: Quote The easiest insight into human nature a person 's life time two : one is a man and troughs in frustration when things can continue to maintain the dignity of man ; and , when a person is frustrated, and has a high ability to calm and rational restraint not forget ability. - Summer build system Only experienced peaks and valleys of the club , will accomplish great legend !
