MrBlack Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 27 minutes ago, sne said: I like us working with other clubs and exchanging ideas, players and so on. I hate us buying other clubs and especially changing their names or colours like some sort of poor mans City group or Red Bull wannabees. Well we haven't changed anyone's name or colours, and the only suggestion of it here is a running joke. The clubs we Co own have done so through a vote that they approved. There's not much bad seemingly happened, and we've sent players on loan to one of them. Agree that not owning and just having an agreement is preferred if we can rely on them though 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wishywashy Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 You'd assume that a stake in an Australian club could end up having a similar academy player link that we have with Real Union, where we send them around three players (the max you can make to a single club) a season. City don't seem to do that with their Australian club, Melbourne City though: I'm not sure of the work permit rules for footballers over there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't we send someone on loan to a team in Australia a few years back? I can't remember who and maybe they had an Aussie passport. But that would suggest that it should be possible. As I said before I think it looks like it would have benefits for both the men's and women's teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sending Ross to Australia was probably covered by the same guidelines that we used 150 odd years ago to send convicts down under - so probably doesn't help with the work permit side of things. I was thinking that we'd sent a young defender there too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imavillan Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 Don't know if it's bin dunne..... Not part of the V Sports group, but there is an Aston Villa that play in the Antigua and Barbuda Premier Division. I noticed this while browsing through Flashscore. Antigua and Barbuda Premier Division Wiki From searching the web, there's not a great deal of information about them that i can find. They don't appear to have there own website or a Facebook page. They are in 5th place at the moment. Click here for the latest table. Clearly there must be some sort of affinity to us with the name and the badge. Perhaps an exiled Villa fan maybe? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A whole load of natural talent... Absolute garbage association and setup Even the best women ( Shaw from Man City ) and so on have stopped playing as well for similar reasons.

So of course they'll back off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
