Yes!!!!

Great ending of the last series. Loved that fight scene with Eli and the Fed.

Probably is but the feel good factor may be worth a few points alone. Then there is always the possibilities of signings in January.

I've been watching so much of it of late, just got the last 2 episodes of season 4 left. I'm going to miss watching episode after episode once I'm all caught up. I've finished. Now gotta wait until next year Same. Not much of a reader, but went out and bought the books today for my GoT fix before the next season! Let me know if they are any good. I wonder how I'm gonna get my GoT fix now. Anyone know any medieval brothels?

Is this season, the first time it has said that on them? Must be due to our new Chinese owners.

Don't even joke about that. Good or bad? Or Jenny Jones?

Jerry Jones?

Right. Everyone get on google and find American Sports franchises owners that also have an Oil Company.

Yes i think we do need another winger but whether we have the funds to do it is another matter How much are wingers actually used in the modern game? What we need are decent defensive midfielders that can cover when our fullbacks get forward so we stop getting caught on the break.

I don't think the tour of US has anything to do with a takeover. A lot of clubs tour the US pre-season.

that will be rich Chinese ... only beaten in the rudeness stakes by rich Indians go to any tourist attraction that has the words " No Photo's " and rest assured 99% of these Indians and Chinese will be clicking away with their cameras ignoring the people who work there telling them otherwise yeah it's a tad generic but it's one of those observations you sorta notice , much like you notice drunk brits in any decent European weekend destination Can't speak for Chinese but a reason rich Indians may act like that is due to the way they act like kings back home. It's shocking the way people are spoken to, waiters in particular. But it's just the way it is.

I think whether he leaves or not will depend on the player himself. He hasn't signed a new contract so if he wants to leave I'm sure both clubs will come to some sort of agreement.

Where did you go on Holiday? China?

Spill the beans....

If you're going to make stuff up why use Mbia? What a waste.

Nice one! You seem Righteous enough about it. It's not like they are brothers.

I hope we get a decent sum for him and all of it is used to buy a replacement.

He's no world beater but still seemed to good to be true. It wasn't that long ago players would be honoured to play for Aston Villa.

Good choice.

This is very true and one of Lambert's strong points: "You want to come, then come. If not sure don't waste my time." It's held true of all his signings so far (regardless of what you might think of them, quality wise). I think the link with Ki has legs still. Happy days! I don't get this. A player is not allowed to consider all his options when making a life changing decision?

I think what the majority expect is the reason a new owner is not going to arrive anytime soon. The task has become too large.What do you mean? The club is financially self sufficient, in the black perhaps. In the premier league too, second largest catchment area in the country with virtually no realistic competition. What's the job? The job is making us a top 6 team again at the very least. This will require a lot of investment in addition to 200M already spent purchasing the club. The job according to who though? Is that in the advertisement? Ok maybe I phrased that incorrectly. If somebody would be prepared to spend 200M on a club then they would want to make them competitive and a top half team. That will require further investment and also need the club to increase revenue. The task is massive!

So we can spend around 30M without breaking FFP? Out of interest, all those clubs that got fined for breaking the rules. Did they slightly go over or blow the rules out the water? Uefa rules are a loss of 37m over 3 seasons you would need to deduct the losses we have made in previous years from 37m the factor around 20m spending that could be made available if FFP didn't exist because that is what we could spend so if we had lost 37m exactly over previous seasons it would be 20m if 27 it would be 30 if the owner wanted to chip his own money in which he won't equally if it were 47m we would have 10m. Got it? So how much can we spend?

How many top 6 finishes under Ellis? Plus two League cups and a FA Cup final. Not to mention the great European nights in the early and mid 90s. Supporting Villa in the 90s was a lot better than supporting them now.
