We can now see why we did not do much business in the window, Randy wants to sell for £200m, so he is not going to be putting any money in. Everybody blaming PL but he can only use money at his disposal, the quicker he sells the better UTV.
1.) Many of us saying that PL is running to orders, perhaps he will get a chance at proving he can manage at the top. A new owner may want a foriegn manager to move us forward. It would be fantastic if a real owner came and invetsed proper money.
2.) Careful what you wish for. In fairness Lerner loaned the club buckets of cash and ramped up the wage bill in persuit of making the next step up to the CL.
He will leave a club without debt and in a decent position. These foreign owners everyone wants do not exist. Chelsea and Man City aside, all other investors are in it for profit ONLY. The value of the premier league has been rising for years as Lerner bought for 80m and will sell for 200m, 120m return over 7 years!
Its global billionaire business and I for one do not expect a money bags to come and bank roll us, some people want Red Bull. If that happens I will, sadly have to find a new club to follow. Corporatism has gone far enough but I am not assosciating myself with an arm of Red Bull global plc, this is not football people
3.) Jeez mate getting a little upset over a game people love there you should follow avfc no matter what
4.) Blimey mate.
Don`t know who you are but I have done my fair share of moaning, but
I would support Villa if they were owned by the council, then you would see what real lack of investment is really like.
Chill out and support your team, good times will come you see.
Villa are a great club and I would support no other ditto.

5.) I don't get this rubbish that Lerner hasn't backed Lambert. He has, the person has chosen to buy too many players on the cheap instead of fewer quality players. Lerner's problem is he he has been wrongly advised. He has had 3 stabs at trying to get the right manager and try and rectify the financial mess o'neil created at the same time. Unfortunately some fans got their wish with the present manager, mores the pity. His attitude towards the big earners that he inherited has been disrespectful, well that's how it appears, or has had his orders not to play them. I'm sure if I was paying someone £50,000 a week I'd want to get my money's worth, or is it down to appearance money and bonuses, guess we'll never know the answer to that. I have to ask does Lambert really believe the garbage that comes out of his mouth in his post match interviews. If I was Lerner, I would want to get my money back or close to it and sell. At least he would be happy, the moaning fans who have short memories and are anti Lerner would be happy!
Whoever is there I wish them well I will always support the club, but will feel obligated to criticise if I don't agree with what I see on the pitch.
Apologies for going on.
UTV
6.) Don't apologise mate. You make some good points
7.) Decent coaching and tactics would make a difference. The best players in the world would look bad using Lambert's tactics.
8.) UTV Lambert can only sign lower based players because of the wages he is allowed to offer. So Lerner is not backing him he can not sign quality player as you put as he can not pay their wages.
9.) Sat 10th in the league 5 clear. Form is picking up. 6 points better off then this time last season playing 1 game less. Weve improved that's for sure, but i'm not 100% happy with our style of play. Lambert is the right man for the job.
10.) Have we improved or have the opposition got worse?
We seem to have gone backward in playing style

Just heard we are talking to Wes Hoolahan, he better be good if he comes UTV.
1.) We can't talk to him without havin a bid accepted
2.) Not quite right, we are talking to his representatives not him as that isn't allowed without Norwichs permission.
3.) Well somebody is talking to Villa about him coming UTV

Aston Villa are working on an ambitious move to sign highly-rated Barcelona striker Jean Marie Dongou on-loan for the rest of the season.
Hope so UTV
1.) We have too many strikers already, I really don't see the point in this.
{Ed001's Note - you are in talks with Spurs over selling them a striker (I think Weimann), maybe a replacement?}
2.) I really hope we wouldn't be stupid enough to sell Weimann (Or any of our strikers) and sign an unknown in, especially when it's so tight in the bottom half at the moment. Yes he has been not up to the standards of last season, but he is still a good player for us.
3.) Spurs want Andi? they'd have to cough up £10m in my view to make letting him leave possible - especially in January.
4.) I would love to see Weimann leave at times his finishing is awful
5.) £10m for Weimann? I'll drive him there myself!

We have signed Ryan Bertrand on loan for rest of season, totally out of the blue (pardon the pun). very good signing please more like this UTV
1.) Finally a signing villa fans can be happy with. More please :)
2.) Good signing he's better than Luna. I hope there's a transfer fee agreed at the end of the season if he does well.
3.) Brilliant transfer, played at the top top level (champions league final) but why didn't we try and buy him? Are funds really that tight? Hopefully if he's successful he'll want to come back next season on a permanent deal! Now all we need to try and sort a solid experienced centre back and most importantly a creative, attacking midfielder.
4.) This is a great signing, top draw, his wages may be the reason it's only a loan deal, as he is on more than Steven defour which makes me laugh, Scott dann wouldn't be a bad move, he i
5.) Well great deal, that's our 2 loan deals, can only spend money now
6.) Mourinho probably wants to see how he progresses given constant first team football. Ashley Cole is nearing the end of his career and if they don't sign Luke Shaw, they will need Bertrand next season! Excellent signing though!
7.) You are allowed two loans from premier league clubs we only have one as Holt is from Wigan
8.) No chance of signing him permanently, we need to stop living in dreamland! Cole is likely to be gone in the summer, and they want Bertrand to get games so he can replace him. Good loan signing though
9.) They are after Luke Shaw, Bertrand might be able to join us for somewhere in the region of £6m in the summer I hear

Looks like Tom Cleverley could still be on his way to Villa via Loan, I think this suits everyone as I woud have preferred loan to giving him 4 year contract, this way we can see what he has to offer, no brainer UTV

Darren Bent having medical at Fulham, at last I wish him well he did nothing but good for Villa, but the way we play does not fit it. Thanks Darren all the best
Cant belive sm Villa fans axing lycrical abot a player who has not played two consecutive games, yet you say he is better than players who have.
I have no doubt he is a talent, but some perspective he is always injured he needs game time but not straight in the 1st team utter madness UTV
Well somebody is talking to Villa about him coming UTV
Why would we be interested in him, CD and AM urgently needed, Lescott and Defour please UTV.
What a good window that would be then fingers XXXX
What a Leave Leicester top of the league what utter rubbish. UTV
Would love Joleon Lescott and have heard the same rumour about Tomas Rincon for under £1m if we can get Defour as well, Xmas 2014 come early Here's hopin Fingers X UTV
