HanoiVillan Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 Aston Villa made it to the F.A. Cup final, where it lost to Arsenal, 4-0. Over the past weekend, Fabian Delph and Christian Benteke, the two outstanding talents on Aston Villa, departed. The bigger sale — of the Aston Villa franchise itself — is in limbo. Clicky! Cheers, Maqroll for the prompt Separated by a common language etc. Really weird to read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wittmann Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 (edited) Where can I get one of these Aston Villa Franchises? Surely they are just like a macdonalds or kfc? Edited July 22, 2015 by Wittmann Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eames Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 We are terrible and have a clueless owner not willing to make things right. You can't see that? I wasnt looking for a bit by the way although I'm sure you thought that sounded cool, that is how I see thing In what way is the owner "clueless" and how is he "not willing to make things right" Its lovely to throw around these subjective statements but without actually providing examples or evidence you just sound like a neurotic 12 year old girl.

I'd say giving a manager another 4 year contract after 4 decent games was an error. I'd say the same for Hutton as I know read Sherwood wants rid. Id day putting near 40 year olds on 5 year contracts was an error and putting potentially lazy players on sky high long term contracts was also an error. I'd say focussing his attention on our corporate image and doing up the holte pub instead of investing smartly on the pitch was an error. I'd say appointing McLeish was a huge error, if not just from a pr point of view. I'd say appointing a non footballng man to take charge in faulkener was an error and whatever he is doing now is clearly not working as we can't sell. I wonder how news got out that we were in exclusivity around the time season tickets went on sale and I wonder why the club didn't deny it. I wonder how things didn't work out and why we havent heard from the interested party since. I also wonder weather you, like a homosexual teenage boy might be in denial Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder how things didn't work out and why we havent heard from the interested party since. I also wonder weather you, like a homosexual teenage boy might be in denial Let put the thinly veiled homophobic jabs to one side for a second and break this down shall we? How do you know Sherwood wants rid of Hutton? Has he told you? The fact he played Hutton last season prior to the I jury crisis appears to contradict that point of view. 4 years for Lambert? I can understand why it happened but more Faulkner's bad than Lerner. 5 year contract for Given? Faulkner. "Potentially lazy players" which ones? And how did Lerner know they were lazy in advance of contract negotiations? Everyone is "potentially" something. That's a very subjective approach to recruitment. The renovation to the Holte Suite is surely a good thing, and in the context of multi million £ transactions buying players achieved for peanuts. A gesture to show he cares about fans. Smart player recruitment is the managers job not Lerner. Blane MON or every subsequent manager for that. McLeish was appointed after the idiot section of our fan base decided McLaren wasn't good enough. I can see the logic in the appointment even if I disagree with it. What constitutes a "footballing man" - Fox pre Arsenal wasn't. Faulkner made the FA board....surely that makes him the perfect footballing man? It's a meaningless phrase thrown about by people who haven't got the first clue about the roles and functions of a CEO of a large company. On the issue of exclusivity you appear to be accusing the idiot in charge or being sufficiently unidiotic to arrange a conspiracy to defraud the fans and then get away with it with no media scrutiny. The club have never commented on any speculation about take over or transfers beyond admitting the club was available for purchase. Attached to this process is a thing called an NDA which is a legal contract preventing parties commenting publically about the business transaction or the process. All very standard and all very boring. Trouble is it allows the tin foil hat wearing conspiracy Berks an excuse to talk bollocks about a plan to sell season tickets. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
