Though there was some blue computer generated Dude wandering around that scared the shite out of me when he suddenly appeared next to me on the virtual sofa. If they Did this for Villa Games I would seriously consider a subscription, as flying over all the time is too expensive.

Popular Post Paddywhack Posted August 2, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted August 2, 2018 Here is a good joke I just thought of. Dr Tony Xia said that he wanted to build a theme park at Villa Park. Well he certainly took us on a rollercoaster ride!!! Haha thanks x 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've missed a few months of this thread, so I'm sure there's been plenty of discussion between the "Oh Doctor Tony, I want to have your babies" faction, and the "Do we actually know if anything he says can be verified, because he's been shown to have lied to us?" faction. I don't intend to go back and check. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vive_La_Villa Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 It makes me cringe when I think back to the tweets and the motivational presentations. I wonder what the players felt after that! He really did play us all for fools. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keener window-cleaner Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 The soft part of me feel a little bit sorry for him, despite being the biggest owner it's like he is completely sidestepped, he didn't even announce any of the signings on twitter!

jimcohen Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Anyone know what his tweet was about when he said "not a pleasant weekend" yesterday? Some were saying it wasn't just about the result. But if it was just the result, seems an odd thing to say. yes the performance was bad but an away draw after 2 wins in game 3 isn't that bad is it?

Maybe the people who lent him the money to buy us have finally put out the contract on him? That certainly wouldn't be pleasant news (for him anyway) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
