I would think if its Americans and they are interested in us, that it makes it more likely they will purchase us if we dont go up. The sports group down the road(silicon valley, with billionaires in it) want to buy a club that is specifically not in the Premier League.
Could be just a rumour that started right here on this thread. It would be hilarious if the council then gave them the freehold to the KC and the surrounding area, for them to develop
It would be great for the club and the city. Which, sadly, is why it wouldn't happen, not until there's a change at HCC. Don't hold your breath.
Thought that myself today hope not ran villa into the ground and pocketed tv cash, I asked if there rich his reply there's two of them
Ha, I bet he wishes that was true, in reality it cost him a quarter of his personal fortune. He actually lost £70k per day, every day, for ten years.
Let's not be smart arse eh Presumed with a club there size . Season tickets, match day income, plus the tv cash theyd of made a small loss , or small profit Seemed to sell there best players for decent amounts too and think they averaged 13m net spend on fees for lerners first 5 seasons as chairman
He is not being a smart arse as you put it. http://www.forbes.com/sites/mikeoza...n-loss-with-sale-of-aston-villa/#a6fa03f4906c
I wasn't being a smart arse, how else do you lose money over ten years, other than by spending more money than you're taking in?
No offense SydneyTiger14,but surely searching the web for"Randy Lerner" and "Aston Villa" should bring up enough links to the goings on around the club and person named.If I'm after specific info that's what I do...I cannot comment on Randy Lerners losses(or not) as I couldn't give a **** about Villa.Information is usually out there now,unlike in the '80's.
Why are you saying no offence to me? I wasn't the one making the original comment. Yes google can solve all sorts of problems, but if people want to engage in a discussion on here and ask someone to expand on their knowledge, I don't think that's unreasonable. OLM saying that Lerner lost 10k every day of his reign is a cool stat, and asking what were the causes of his losses isn't unreasonable.
