roadoftrinity Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 Aston Villa under the new UEFA rules would not be eligible to participate in Europe, is it any wonder why we have a sell to buy policy? No Phil, it cant be a reason like that, or because of the recession, or due to the fact that we never manage to fill the ground so we can get the revenue in that we need. It's because Randy doens't trust MON with the money, however he is happy to keep him on as manager in the mean time, surely that is obvious?

It's because Randy doens't trust MON with the money, however he is happy to keep him on as manager in the mean time, surely that is obvious? Of course he doesn't trust him. Everyone knows that Randy was the brains behind the A. Young, Milner, Downing, Petrov, Cuellar, Dunne, Warnock, Collins and Delph deals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 If our 3 main targets are Keane, McGeady & Ireland I will say right now I will be seriously unimpressed. To be fair i think warnock is the only player we've bought in the last two years i havent been unimpressed with, james collins being the main example, i thought what the **** have we done, but he had a great first season imo Theres no reason why those three on paper look uninspiring but when they integrate into the team look good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PieFacE Posted August 4, 2010 VT Supporter Share Posted August 4, 2010 I heard a little rumour via the grapevine yesterday... Now this could just be a crazy rumour... but was wondering if anyone knows any more on it... Apparently, Randy is going through a divorce, therefore having to give 50% of his wealth to the ex-wife.... hence us seeming very skint. Has anyone else heard that?

villa4europe Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 Surely the idea would be to spend all your cash on assets in someone elses name so she cant touch them? Resulting in spending more on players he can sell after the divorce 50% of **** all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randy and Mon did go through a rocky patch but they're through it now. The pre-nuptial agreement is only one years salary anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MON would be out the door so it looks like that is not the case IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zatman Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 Looked poor for France when i have saw him but he is probably a capable striker at club level. Maybe 11million is too high Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
