MikeMcKenna Posted May 13, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted May 13, 2016 Sometimes we wonder if we don't know why we're living. We came to be, so we are. Everyone tells us We can be whatever we want. We wish they wouldn't because we want to be everything. But sometimes we feel that we are not supposed to be anything, there is no destiny, no will, no fate. And sometimes we wonder if we will be happy tomorrow. Everyone else has callings, dreams and goals. We think sometimes we were called to live in the moment, although so many times We are living for our future. And we want to get on with life but we don't like doing nothing either. We think it would be good if we were a philosophers or maybe mathematicians or even if we hated football because we could think about the things worth thinking about We could feel as if there is a point in trying to figure things out. But then we remember that we are waiting for our future. We'll probably die first. Not from an accident and not from suicide and not from poisoning and not from starvation and not from heart failure. But from boredom. Or more likely from contracting a rare disease caused by checking Villatalk every hour! Sometimes we feel like we are just waiting..... Waiting for a new Villa owner! :-) Based on a poem called 'Waiting for Godot' 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sexbelowsound Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 Just now, Kingman said: Sounds like a "Fit and proper persons test" if that's the case.

Kingman Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 If what this Nixon fella says is correct then waiting approval for new owners off the Football League is not good news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarewsEyebrowDesigner Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 why? the football league does this all the time. that they have 'approved' of various dodgy characters over the years should be of more concern than anything. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

guyavfc Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 I thought every new potential owner buying a football club had to wait for approval from the premier league or football league? You can't just buy a club without them approving it surely? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sexbelowsound Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 If this is response to me then I'll repeat what I said. I'm gutted that its the Football League and not the Premier League we're waiting for approval from in that it's just hit me that we've dropped a league. Nothing to do with needing approval. Thats standard. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlwaysAVFC Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 The only thing I can find is "Chinese group think they are doing it. How long to complete and pass the Football League tests .. unknown." Which doesn't necessarily mean we are at the fit and proper person test stage, just that it needs to be done. What stage is the fit and proper person test done? Is it pretty much when a deal is complete or in advance of that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingman Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 (edited) The tests are pretty much pointless if we are to go on the state of some clubs in recent takeovers. Leeds, Blackburn, Fulham, Forest, Blackpool, QPR, Cardiff, just to name a few. Edited May 14, 2016 by Kingman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
