Looks like the Chinese are going to buy avfc and and bring in former Tottenham and Liverpool director with them source the mirror. They are owned by the government. But my point is if a manager cannot Buy his own players then what is the point of being being here it will be near enough the same situation as we have got there now and how many games are there is Chinese going to go to?

We won't appoint a manager, we will appoint a head coach.
I think it's a poor way of going. But it's what we will do!

I've just seen now that there is a new Geneva based consortuim named 'IM 1872' that have been named as one of the potential take over parties and that is why Di Matteo is now the front running managerial candidate being their preferred manager. They also own Hertha Berlin, who have made some what of a resurgence in the Bundesliga since being bought over by them.

Just seen that Roberto Di Matteo is now odds on to become the villa boss and some bookmakers have even stopped taking bets. For somebody to come out of the blue and become front runner must mean new owners are close and he is there preferred choice?

UTV.

Just seen this too, I don't think an announcement about the manager will happen until a couple of days after a take over so hopefully the final stages of the takeover are being finalised. I wouldn't mind him as manager. He has had a few learning curves and success but I still would prefer moyes, moyes' contacts could prove valuable in the transfer market.

to me this maybe looks like the new owners will be Chinese and did not like what went down at Leicester with Pearson. saying that I suppose someone like ellison might not want someone like Pearson in charge. who knows. I think we are very close though now.

He wouldn't be my first choice but at this time I'm feeling a bit punch drunk from the last few months reckon my judgement is shot. Better than the last appointments probably, man to take us forward maybe. Did well at MK but we are not in that bracket. We are a great club and he has to return us to our rightful place. Whoever gets the job needs backing 100% from the owners players and supporters VTID.

I feel some more news is close to breaking :-) :-)

Di Matteo I feel will still want some money behind him and try and build a squad he wants. With any luck he is different and uses some of the youngsters and maybe in the championship he'll get Gestede firing again with Ayew up there with him. I just hope the new owners don't just pie him off if things do start going pear shaped, it is going to be a crucial few weeks at the start of the season.

I'm saying nowt.

'King Villa' in the recent weeks you have told us that Pearson will be the next manager. Not saying he won't be but it's looking likely now that it will be di matteo!! U also told us that Americans will take over as new owners but now your saying it's the Chinese!!??!! got to give u 10 out of 10 for effort though. Gotea love a trier!! But please now stop pretending u have all these contacts around the world telling u this and that. Face facts that your just like all us other villa fans, the only difference is u let your dreams pour out your mouth and try get us all excited. Please realise that no one believes a word u say anymore. We love the effort but enough is enough.

On a different note I hope Di Matteo gets the job, this he will work wonders with the youngsters. I really hope we get some news on the takeover aswell. I want ellison for the main reason he is loaded and has a passion for sport. UTV
