praisedmambo Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 They get loads more TV money now too though. Best thing would have been to avoid relegation the season before that increase happened. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackbauer24 Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 I think it's telling that my first thought when I saw match worn Villa shirts being sold by the club on eBay is that they're literally now selling the shirts off their backs to keep the club afloat! For the record, despite the funny timing, this is actually for the Villa Foundation...or so they say... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keener window-cleaner Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 I thought Xia/Recon bought Villa mainly for marketing purposes. I wonder how they feel that has worked out. Anyone fancy buying some Recon products? Or some tasty glutamate from Lotus Health perhaps? If someone offered me a Recon product I would probably not hit the person, but I would for sure let them know what I think of Xia and Recon. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nigel Posted July 18, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted July 18, 2018 The fact that you have let this club get to the position we have to sell our home grown best asset against his wishes rings true to how poor you have ran this club. Leave now before the damage you are causing becomes too much! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foreveryoung Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 There are offers on the table for us apparently to buy us outright, good offers. Xia won't sell as he needs to keep a share, to show some profit for the external company that financed him to buy us in the first place. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way he’s dreaming of he thinks he can get out of this with any sort of profit, unless he retains a share, we’re bought by someone who knows what they’re doing and he hangs around for the long term. But why would anyone let him ride on the back of their hard work? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 He has ruined us. CLub will see no growth under him and is probably one of worst owners ever. Think I prefer Venkys to take us over Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So he wants to keep a share of the club and then hope the new investors can invest enough money to get us promoted. Then when we are in the premier league Tony can sell his share for a profit to pay back the loan that he has? If that's the case he's an even worse business man that I thought and the people who gave him money are thicker than the donald. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 For all Xia faults I think Hollis should be another one never allowed near Villa Park again since he is held in high regard by some. He was the clearing in the woods that brought Xia to the club and approved the owner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
