Tomaszk Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Think it was more to do with the timing or something. Landing Sat morning and leaving 6pm after the match? TheTrees is the man for stuff like this. He doesn't come on and bleat every time any private jet lands, it's when he notices something interesting; and I certainly do find it interesting, so hopefully he'll continue his fine work.

HeyAnty Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Hilarious. So when a private plane arrives at BHX it's automatically rich sheiks acquiring Aston Villa? Birmingham isn't the metropole of the world, but it does have 1 million people living there - stuff happens in this town, it's not just AVFC. One rich Saudi could be visiting his son at the Uni, as banal as that. As i joked at the time, it was a chartered plane. They can bog off if they cant even afford their own jet. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suttonpaul Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Hasn't this supposed takeover gone too far already no one knows anything. If there was a name or something id take it a little more seriously Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewiek2 Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 I don't think the jet is anything to do with Villa. What I do know 100% is that an arab Prince (can't remember which state) is going to Cov Uni from the summer and he and his entourage are staying in the entire top floor of the Ramada in Cov so maybe the jet was one of his people in to check out the area.

If there was a name or something id take it a little more seriously There were months of QIA speculation (based on one anonymous post) which culminated in some kebab shop owners being mistaken for billionaire sheiks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dear god, what a place to go to uni! Warwick university is in Coventry. Check it out on the university rankings.

stewiek2 Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 Nope it's Cov Uni he's going to. I had a meeting with the Ramada in January and a tour of their new refurbished networking suites and was told of this. Anyway back on topic... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just another point. People checking stuff out in Coventry/Warwick tend to fly to Coventry airport, not BHX. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P3te Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 They couldve gotten the crest right at least. Or used the nice round one instead of that horrid 90s one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MessiWillSignForVilla Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 (edited) Probably because they don't like our current "horrible" badge (I like it personally, each to their own I suppose). Also, it kind of symbolises Lerner's reign here, something I assume those fans want to get rid of.

P3te Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 But why not use the round badge instead? The one that symbolises the most successful points in our clubs history? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
