Popular Post New_Hope Posted July 20, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted July 20, 2018 Hi guys first post and as you can see by my username, we now have new hope. It's not about the wealth, it's about the business sense and ability to deliver on all fronts. Yes, cash injection is a massive beginning but then so is being prudent and not frivolous with the money is key. Lerner threw money at it and we wasted so much money it was unreal. Xia threw money at it and look at us now! We need investment but we need sensible management at all levels of the club. If we can get it right, we can be sustainable and successful and will hopefully never be in this situation again. I for one welcome the new hope that we now have and will look forward to seeing this grand old lady of English football rise back to where it belongs.

That old stupid fit and prop person test takes a couple of months, not that it’s worth much. Just a stop gap to get money in without having to wait on that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

choffer Posted July 20, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted July 20, 2018 Positive news. Yep, I'm going to go with this being a good thing, even if the last few years has made me very cynical about Villa and good news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 Anyone know if the Thierry Henry link is intertwined? Or was it just unrelated bollox? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 My only concern with this deal is will one of these parters/owners be around to run the bloody club? Xia and Lerner both did not and I believe that is a main reason why we are where we are 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xia and Lerner both did not and I believe that is a main reason why we are where we are I would expect them to put a competent CEO in place to run the club day to day. Nicola Cortese would be my choice. Need someone that knows the 2018 game, not the bloody 1998 game! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully the guy from the sports background will put a full time uk based CEO in place. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
