Easy for a fan to do of course but I think a lot of owners might not necessarily have that information immediately in their heads. Shows how much he's invested in it. Did you not hear his geopolitical comments. Guy has a brain the size of a planet. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MWARLEY2 Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 God. Stupid Americans eh... unable to articulate a single sentence and not knowing what is going on outside of their own country. .... Btw. Genius idea to connect vegas and LA by rail. 90 percent of those 50 million trips a year would be done hungover. Now u just jump on a train. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also from the UK visiting Vegas gives you option of flight to LA then train to Vegas. Seems a good idea. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said UTV with such a smile. What a guy. Thanks for sharing that. This youtube link skips straight to the Villa bit for convenience: 4 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinker Posted April 24 VT Supporter Share Posted April 24 Mention on CNBC, lovely bit of PR from him, mentioned our history, the amazing turn around being a record. You can see the game plan straight away, she was obviously prompted to ask about us. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Keyblade Posted April 24 Popular Post Share Posted April 24 You can rest easy when you're owned by a very successful businessman who knows how to turn a profit and has already built a successful sports franchise. He wouldn't have bought us unless he knew he could get a return on his investment, and that could only happen if Aston Villa were doing well on the pitch. Champions League at a minimum. Tony Xia to NSWE is almost as big of a leap as Gerrard to Unai. Man we got lucky, we were right on the brink there. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As in, not just a " job " for them anymore. There's a few zeros that may help with that, but I get your point 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villatillidie95 Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 An extremely knowledgeable man, I’ve seen him on Bloomberg a few times and you can see how he came to run money and build up fortress, a very analytical and strategic mind. As mentioned upthread, his long term approach/patient capital will Reap rewards in multiple industries, notably Aston Villa! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I seem to remember in the early days something about them being acquaintances at some billionaires club and started watching The World Cup together where they each recognised their love of sport and hatched a plan to buy a football club together. A bit like your mates might decide to buy a few shares in a racehorse together in order to enjoy the sport more, only costing a few hundred million extra.
