The Aston Villa Thread

By all accounts, you still owe us £6M for Kodjia, what happens with that?

 

[villa loyal]

If true you will no doubt get it in instalments. Looks like he will be sold anyway, so maybe the fee we get will pay you off? Not sure how it all works tbf. I'm waiting for my mum to pipe up, and say Villa owe her money it's getting that ridiculious.

Villa Park will make for some nice flats and offices.

Nice flats and Aston doesn't quite sound right. Back in the prem within 5 years.

We’re still owed at least £3m for Hogan. More if they go up (but then it won’t be a problem...)

Football League will step in soon and pay their parachute payments to clubs they owe debt directly

They've already had it.

We are using land that we own around the stadium to secure more loans to pay our bills and debts. Xia is next to skint in terms of him having cash at the ready.

Said it before, the Chinese government have cracked down on monies leaving the country .

Milan Mandaric is being linked.

Villa can always sell their trophy room, maybe sell their European Cup to cover a some of the Kodjia installments.

Apparantly we need to find 9m by the end of the month. Grealish will be gone in a few days for around 20m.

we're fucked

I keep trying to be positive lately and see the bright side of things. Reality is we are in serious trouble. Can't help but think we are truly screwed.

Does anyone know how much money you need exactly? The worry is teams will know youre desperate so assets like Grealish will be sold on the cheap just so you will have the cash up front.

From what I've read, it's 9m by the end of the month, and 75m by next April.

Has jade gone for good?

You'll get around it somehow. If QPR can get away with worming their way around FFP loopholes then I'm sure Villa will have a few tricks up their sleeves. The downside is anyone of value at Villa will more than likely be sold.

 

[villa loyal]

Sell all our assets just to keep our heads above water.

Good news by the sound of it. Wonder if this means we can avoid selling our top players. I'm not clued up with FFP, but I think it still means we can't spend much next season. Even if we could, I hope we don't, because we've spunked enough. Anyway it looks like it's panic over, and we can concentrate on getting back in the prem.

 

[villa loyal]

Grealish is set to sign a five year deal with Spurs. These new owners, or part owners, are seriously loaded.

Not got away with anything. It is still on going.

 

[AndyAVFC]

So Brucie stays. Right decision, in my opinion. Hes gotta be under massive pressure now. Lets see how long he stays for...

 

[villa loyal]

Right decision,yes. All this Henry talk was a huge gamble in my eyes. Positive vibes from the new owners. I just hope it works out. Third richest owners in England now, which means naff all I suppose.

Villa want help from Jorge Mendes

Bunch of hypocrites.

See Doug Ellis has passed away at the age of 94.

Strangely not even been mentioned by Villa.
