According to Doug Ellis Villa have already been sold. Pray it's true, the sooner it's sorted the better.

Surely if anyone is likely to know it would be Doug.
After all, it has always seemed that he and Mr. Lerner were fairly close.

All seemed a bit vague to me. I reckon he's been reading this site

Yeah I agree Mendax after listening again he changed his tune from 'done deal', 'doesn't know' and 'it's in the lap of the gods' all in the space of 5 minutes. Only thought to mention it as it could have some substance as it is Doug.

Lets hope its sorted soon because all transfers and contracts are on hold until a buyer is found and if it drags on, we will be going into the new season potentially with the same squad as last season.

The deal Deadly talks about is all but collapsed. Davis and Simpson were expected to complete after premier league survival but have since lowered there offer, Deadly thinks they will come to an agreement but Lerners statement about for sale has changed that. Davis and Simpson feel let down he has gone public and Lerner feels there time wasting.

Say we struggle to get a buyer, will randy just not invest at all, as that will be the worst thing that could happen. We need investment and we need it quick, I'd be happy to be aston red bulls playing at red bull park, as long as we had backing.

Regardless of who buys us, wouldn't the financial fair play rules limit investment anyway?

Gordon who are david and Simpson exactly?

It wouldn't surprise me if if lambert and faulkner were going out to the states to not only see Lerner, but also a potential new owner

Financial fair play is only for teams playing in Europe, hence why liverpool have lost £90m over the past two seasons and havnt been penalised like city.

So Gordon's grove what happened to Anschutz, your first new owner, which you then changed to Davis & Simpson. Looks like you jump on the band wagon with every name you hear, you've also mentioned Zola as manager and changed it to interpreter. Who's it going to be next?

12.) 13 May 2014
Simpson and Davis own one of teams were going to play pre season, your right I mentioned Anschutz because unfortunately I don't have the privalige of being in Lerners inner circle but like a fool trusted friends who work at the club. If I said the info coming out of the club in the last two weeks was a smoke screen whilst they tried to rescue the deal you wouldn't believe me so with a heavy heart, I won't be posting anymore. those who do I look forward to your posts. Goodbye Villans.

Simpson and Davis own a BASEBALL team - the texas rangers - not a FOOTBALL team in MLS. get your facts sorted
