Especially when its Moxley writing it. Take everything he says about Villa with a pinch of salt. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HanoiVillan Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 Erm . . . I haven't checked in to On Topic for about 48 hours. There seems to be no end of panic. Could someone summarise what's going on? I'm lost. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those are the only facts we have. Rumours abound We don't know: Why Wyness is suspended. Why we hqaven't paid the tax. Whether Xia has the means or inclination to fix things.

Judging by a host of the Muppets I see post on villa facebook sites its just a recipe for disaster. We need a UK based group that understands the heritage and the UK as a whole. No more clowns that dont live here and don't know what's going on at the club. EVERY organisation and Company is plagued by muppets, I've been in exactly this position, it goes with the territory and you deal with it, the problem I have with your suggestion is that any UK based Group would want to a quick profit, and that is where all our problems have stemmed from, it has to be a Philanthrocapitalism. if we can find someone like that great. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then he’s gonna build a wall, ok, and we will keep out all of the opposition teams, and get wins by default...ok. He’s gonna make Aston Villa great again. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jareth Posted June 6, 2018 Author VT Supporter Share Posted June 6, 2018 (edited) Moxley implies we’ve made a £70 million loss every year, paid for by monthly cheque from China, but we know the accounts have not recorded a £70 mill loss the last 2 years. It does however spell out just how much we will need to cut back, I can see most of the first team assets going.

villa89 Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 I hope a takeover goes through so we can get a new 5 year plan and a very high level description of all the stadium renovations that are going to be done, with possibly a mock up of our new 60K stadium with shopping centre/hotel complexes done in MS paint.

I hope it goes through so we can avoid administration and a 12 point deduction. IMO we will stumble from crisis to crisis as long as Xia stays.

If he can't pay the tax and we go administration - he either sells - or we began liquidating our assets to pay creditors. The assumption is he will sell rather than loose everything. If he pays that bill - then all is good ......until the next bill comes along. Personally I am dreading the end of the month when the wages are due.

Popular Post Hoof hearted Posted June 6, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted June 6, 2018 (edited) Just had a Wolves fan (all my life honest sort, you know the type) say to me "What Villa need to do is....." at this point I just stared blankly at him and wished he was dead, is this what it has come to?
