The idiot had to realise that you don't come into football to make money! Thought i read somewhere that he charges us interest on any money used to buy players with! Telling us the guy is a cock-womble of the highest order! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are right and I have my doubts about any "Car Park Protest. That said I do think it is time Villa fans stopped being apathetic in the face of what has been a disastrous five seasons. While other clubs fans obviously will not give a toss it will be ****** sad if it looks like Villa fans watching the club go down don't give a toss either. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PompeyVillan Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 Petition started on Change.org! Already gained 700 signatures within an hour. Might not make any difference but surely got to be worth a shot signing it? https://www.change.org/p/lerneroutrandy-lerner-and-his-administration-out-of-aston-villa-now/c I suspect the first signatory was Randy Lerner. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cliffy Biro Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 I get people are frustrated but petitions and protests are totally pointless and a waste of everyones time really, Lerner wants to sell so what would protesting about wanting him gone achieve? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCJonah Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 Apply a bit of pressure. It's said he wants to sell but I don't see much proof. Didn't Sherwood and fox say he's not a motivated seller right now? Putting more pressure on him may actually motivate him more. I doubt it will have any effect but he deserves it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you cannot spare 2 seconds? At least a protest or petition is marginally better that doing sweet FA. If Lerner wants to sell so badly, why are there no takers? The fact that he still owns the club is simply because his price is too high. He has basically spunked his Dad and family's money up the wall and thinks he can recover his losses. He can't and needs to accept the loss. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah great decision from Lerner to announce he wanted to sell, really lanced a boil. Then when things were a little more positive he leaked he was getting his mot cation back!

DCJonah Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 Lerner will happily sit on his investment until he gets the price he wants. That could take years. At the moment there's no impact on his life, he's not here, he doesn't give a shit. It might not do much but protests will attract media attention and more journalists writing about him. Seeing his name negatively mentioned in national and internarional media more for a consistent period of time may make him uncomfortable. It's got to be better than just letting this word removed have an easy ride. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He really doesn't like bad publicity. He has stayed away from VP because he fears the stick he would get. Unlike Ellis, Lerner is a wimp who was cosseted by his father and is embarrassed by the mess he has made of AVFC after all the b'ollox he spouted about being a "Custodian" b. On the contrary the media love any dissent from the fans. They are probably amazed that Villa fans have been so quiet. c. I don't agree. How do you define trying? If he was so keen to sell he would drop his price. The reality is that AVFC's value has plummeted during his tenure.

Popular Post dont_do_it_doug. Posted January 3, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted January 3, 2016 I think some people really don't understand the purpose of a protest. It's extremely rare they make even the slightest difference. But that should not be a reason to stop you voicing your displeasure. You're not a **** sheep, stand up for yourself for gods sake. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
