The sale process is not proceeding as he hoped, but Randy Lerner states that it will not be a distraction from the core business, football. AVFC - Club statement: Randy Lerner
Might as well post this here, the businessman (not a football man) has resigned. AVFC - Club statement: Paul Faulkner The statement reflects a 'difference of views'. Having discussed his re-engaging with the Chairman's broader business while remaining involved with Villa in a non-operational role, agreement could not be reached. Maybe PF had asked Randy Lerner to open his wallet ... and got the normal response ?
See, I'd have thought Villa would be a good deal for someone. A bit of investment and they could be back to challenging for Europe again, and I'd say they are a sleeping giant. Unfortunately with Man City buying their way into the top 4, it means one less place for other clubs who don't have limitless supplies of cash.
