Just read Dr. Tonys statement looks like Bruce is staying so negative football here we come again if he can't get us promoted with good players what's he gona do with crap players? Dr. Tony says we have to sell so it will be our best players going. I was hoping for young players and attacking football looks like that's out the window. can't people see that Steve Bruces style is out dated? I want to know what sort of summer have we got to look forward to then if we have no money and have to sell our best players? If Dr Tony wanted the best for us he would sponser the ground 100 million and let us by good players easy way to get round FFP. So far he hasn't spent his own money its been the parachute money. You want Bruce back your manager then. We pay one of the highest season tickets in the league for that I expect to see the best players if Dr. Tony thinks he can do it with old men and free transfers his having a laugh. He has sponsored the training ground and T-shirts why didn't he sponsor it with 50 million problem solved no when it comes to him backing us he don't want to use his money the guys a joke.

He hasn't got it mate I agree with all your points it him that used all the parachute payments, he hasn't got a clue about running a footy team check his wealth in China he's not even in top 200 plus when he bought villa he didn't say how much he had to bankroll villa, he's pulled the wool over every1 eyes I knew he was dodgey, a good chairmen would sort this mess out not sell all our best players, I hope he sells because rumours are he can't afford to run villa anymore .

Villa4eva - Walk. the. Walk
I'm pretty sure tony Xia had to under go a fit-and-proper-person test before being allowed to take over Villa to prove he was a worthy owner, I also seem to remember a lot of bluenose activity on the internet back then claiming him to be a fraud. But I guess he must of pulled the wool over the eyes of the FA too.
There appears to be an awful lot you don't like about Villa considering your a fans,
You don't like the owner,
You don't Like the manager
You don't like the players other than Grealish
So I have to ask is the stadium okay for you or would you prefer it to be located in B9
The owner can't just throw money at the club because that isn't allowed and sponsoring the training ground for 100 million wouldn't work either because FIFA investigate and it as to based on the true market value. He may well yet have a plan up his sleeve, I don't know but in the meantime please do continue to pick the club apart.

^^^ I rest my case.

Some truth in Tony could rename the ground recon stadium until we get promoted then get his money back. but as a club we need a plan start playing the kids and use older players as fillers not other way round. don't think sacking manager all the time is the answer.

Cardiff, if anyone told you they were going to get the automatic spot at the start of the season you'd have laughed at them with the team they had. They worked hard as a unit and ground out results. Bring some kids through that are hungry for it and build from there.

Rename the ground like Villacov said, Man City got away with pumping 400 million into their club by doing just that, so we should have no problem covering our needs. Maybe that is already in his plans, who knows.

Because of the Man City debacle there now has to be a justifiable case for the value of the branding. 100mill is never going to be possible for a Championship club and even given the size of the club I wouldn't be sure we could push 50 mill now we're in our 3rd season here.
Bruce proved with Wigan and Blues he can do it on a budget so let's see how we start the season. Nobody else available has proven they can manage Villa and Bruce was close with a points total that normally scrapes 2nd. People like Dean Smith have done good jobs but still haven't had experience of challenging the top.
