    Summer of 2018 fiasco thread...place all posts here that involve the AVFC situation

    and ignore any post from obsessed dingles, noses or guys from Tesco!

    So,
    We failed to go up.....would this crazy financial mess have happened anyway?
    With no prem Sky money till the end of 2019 season would we have been in even more debt as...
    It would appear, Xia has Loans coming out of his ears!
    Just what was Wyness trying to do? deliberately expose him or self greed?
    What now for Steve Bruce and the players?
    Wages, Contracts...are they all on hold?
    Gabby returning surely is a rumour started by the dark side not Bongo?
    How much debt are we in?
    Ignore transfer fees, its normal to owe money, it took 3 years for Pool to pay for Benteke!

    Now here's the big question, should we the fans act? Should we protest to get Xia to come clean?
    Should we put pressure on him to Sell up
    Will he respond in person and not by a stupid cryptic tweet?

    Is there any way we can keep JacK?
    Has Xia actually got any money?
    Why is he borrowing off British banks
    Why is China holding his Money
    Why are WBA and Wolves not suffering the same fate or is this come?

    have we all just been had?

    Has Lerner fooled us all

    Just who is this latest guy Freund?

    Would anyone buy us

    Do they carry the debt or is this Xia's debt

    Will we start the season in the championship?

    Is it all just news paper gossip gone mad

    is Xia an honest guy cought up is some Chinese red tape

    Will he stay

    Do we want him to stay

    What has he actually done

    Did he keep us away from asking questions with false flags like rebuilding the stadium

    What happens to this idea now

    3 owners on the trot have redesigned the North stand only for it to fade away.....

    Any positive news

    Any more bad news?

    Under this mess, does anyone care the world cup is about to start?

    Lots of questions there TD!

    Personally - it's a big reality check for the club and football in this country, we're not what we were and I'd imagine a lot of owners have now sat up & started looking at the finances a lot more closely than they might have been doing. If Xia can't find a way to release his capital then will other revenue generation be enough to get us back into the PL? Recent history suggests it's very possible with the number of smaller clubs that have won promotion, I expect us to be sold and that conversations are already being had with potential investors.

    Yes i think the writing is on the wall unless Xia pulls a rather large rabbit out the Hat.
    If we are sold, I would prefer A local consortium with backers who can splash a bit of cash. Reality check, well i think the last few villa fans in denial yes, its time and for the rest of us, well we just want our club to survive. Visions of granduer have definately gone now. Still come August we will be there hoping and praying as usual...
    All quiet tonight in the papers, seems they are a little disapointed we have paid the tax bill. Would be nice now if we got news of Bill Gates taking over on Monday. I can dream...

    A lot of questions there TD and all of them good. Unfortunately only a few could hazard a guess at the answers and they’re nor saying.

    Personally these amounts of money leave me cold, way out of my comprehension. Dr X has been pumping 4M into the club every month? I mean, who would own a football club other than the seriously mega rich or the completely deluded? I hope Dr X is the former but I have my doubts.

    As we stand now, I’d just be happy to have a team next season. The fact that it might challenge at the top end of the table would be a bonus.

    Board meeting tomorrow not at VP but some s****y hotel in London. Xia will not be there only by conference call.
    I would hazard a guess Wyness will be sacked and a calming message about finances whike for all we know they could be talking quick fire sale....

    Exactly, distancing themselves already. You know i think things will get worse before they get better? I think Xia will sell up, Bruce will move on and we will get Neil Warnock as Manager???

    I hope you're right TB, in every respect other than the better bit.
