We are well and truly cursed with injuries this season now Kamara out for season our luck has got to change soon

Hi ED02 sorry to bother you but I know your clued up when it comes to things about FFP.Im sure I read somewhere but I can't find it with regards the Danny Ings transfer what I did muster from it was that Ings was sold to free up some funds as he was alone on 10% of our wages and selling him was the only option to free up funds for the Summers activity? I know you've mentioned it countless times on other sites but just wanted clearing up on here many thanks??
{Ed002's Note - Ings was not taking up 10% of the wages at Aston Villa, but he was on a significant wage - and there are still two or three polayers at the club earning more. The reason he was sold was with 18 months left on his contract the club could still get a decent return on him - a couple of clubs were keen - and the offer from West Ham was seen as decent so it worked out well for everyone.}

Cheers Ed It wasn't too clear what I read but that's cleared it up for me thank you

Jack grealish pictured in full Villa traimimg gear today all over twitter.
1.) 01 Aug 2021 17:29:15
Sadly doesn't mean much more than a deal is not agreed yet, he's professional and was due back in training so has shown up to his credit. Think we will find out tomorrow what is happening, expect an announcement either way tomorrow, this saga has to be out to rest either way immediately.
05 Jul 2021 20:30:59
I'm hearing a new contract has been signed and all will be revealed along with the new kit on the same day if its true and I have no reason to doubt this person then I'm sure all Villa fans will be very happy indeed.
1.) 05 Jul 2021 22:21:21
This contact reliable Daz? Would be amazing news!
2.) 06 Jul 2021 06:38:25
Very BK i don't normally post rumours as I don't believe in them.
3.) 06 Jul 2021 16:49:20
Fingers crossed Daz, I'd like to see this concluded either way - If Grealish wants to go we need to make this as painless and quick as possible, take the 100M and reinvest smartly. If he is staying, like your mate suggests then I'll be over the moon, that'll be a real statement of intent from Villa.
4.) 06 Jul 2021 18:39:00
Where has this 100m come from, I know of no concrete evidence that is the figure that would trigger his release.
It was 88m last week, all speculation in my book, time will tell.
The chances are it will never happen, if it does we will be some way off with our maths.
5.) 06 Jul 2021 20:42:51
For the record, I 99% think Jack will stay, but it’s going through my mind that as he’s a Villa fan and would want the best for the club and he decides it’s time to move on, that’s why we got Buendia in early? and going for ESM so aggressively as reported? Just thinking out loud 🤔
UTV.
6.) 06 Jul 2021 21:14:03
Ally very true, but that doesn`t answer the question where the 100m came from.
7.) 07 Jul 2021 01:16:02
It was rumoured that city were going to bid 100 million for him, then that 1 source wrote an article about the 88 million deal already agreed, all pure speculation in my book.
if jack had let’s just say 2 years left on his contract, wanted to leave and we needed the money I’d say 100 million would be the ball park to buy him, but he has 4 years left, owners don’t need cash, he’s club captain of his boyhood club and the only desire he has talked about is winning trophies, in my opinion I think it’s going to take 140-150 million to get that deal done this year or even next year, I think city will bid but won’t go high enough for us to accept and I predict he will sign a new contract probably with a release clause of around 120-130 million, if you want him pay up and if you don’t want to pay then do 1, simples.
8.) 07 Jul 2021 05:23:12
Well said Whackie
UTV.
9.) 07 Jul 2021 17:27:43
I agree with the sentiments in the above posts and that works well unless Jack decides he wants a move.
01 Jul 2021 19:46:23
With Jack being offered a new contract and a reported wage of 150k a week I think this could have repricutions on future transfers and wages for new players. I know a couple have been released to get some wages back but if we sign Tammy he would surely demand 75-80k a week also can we really afford this?
1.) 01 Jul 2021 20:00:03
It is a worry I must confess however, I I am sure the commercial arm of the club are looking to improve revenue streams season upon season, but it will become increasingly difficult if we can’t get closer in revenue terms to the big six. I remember reading a couple of months back that Tottenham’s income from just food and hospitality dwarfed Villa’s match day receipts for the whole season if we can’t narrow that gap signing and paying for top players will always be a problem.
{Ed002's Note - Someone is teasing you.}
2.) 01 Jul 2021 20:38:51
Don’t believe everything you read Villajohn.
3.) 01 Jul 2021 20:38:14
Ed - based on the last set of accounts Villa’s match day income was £11 million, Spurs was £95 million. Apparently next year they are anticipating hospitality will take £800,000 per home game 19 home games plus 3 Champions League games gives an estimated income of £17.6 million if those projections are right we are going to have real problems in competing with top clubs unless we address that financial imbalance.
{Ed002's Note - The last pre-pandemic results were for the 18/19 season when Aston Villa was in the Championship. You are not comparing like for like. Aston Villa have far less income than Spurs on match day due to the size of the stadium and ticket prices. They will earn more next season than Spurs do in sandwiches and lager.}
4.) 01 Jul 2021 21:30:56
The accounts I am quoting from are 2020 accounts our first season back in the premier league so I am comparing like with like.
5.) 02 Jul 2021 19:23:55
Tottenham will do that against most when it comes to match day income, much like Doug Ellis was ahead of the curve when he installed the large function rooms with bars, and as many boxes as possible etc at villa park, Levy has pioneered the next step at the new Spurs stadium, with the 100 meter bar and other attractions, all aimed at keeping both home and away fans at the ground long before and long after the match.
We were away there first game of our return to the prem, when things were ‘normal’, there set up is a different kettle of fish to everyone in the UK.

Something is brewing behind the scenes with 4 new directors coming on board from the new partnership we have just secured.As NWSE have said they are a infrastructure firm who have helped build countless infrastructures could it be that we are getting a new staduim? I'm sorry but if we stand still we will be left behind so a new staduim is a must to progress to the next level.I know a lot don't like change and feel like VP is sacred I get that I really do and I believe it also but for the good of the club we need change and if it means moving house then so be it. We have had many a good memory down B6 but it's time to make new memories for us our children our great gand children and so on and so forth let the fun and games commence and just remember a change is as good as a rest.
1.) 16 Apr 2024 09:41:20
It does make financial sense daz, an extra 20,000 seats at 50 quid a pop is a million per home game, so add in 5-10 cup games and 5-10 European games and that could be 40 million or more a year extra income, correct me if I’m wrong but I don’t think the cost of the new stadium will affect our ffp, one way or another we have got to increase our capacity, we are a big enough club to fill it, for years we have being crying out for owners who want to bring us back to the top, now we have them there should be no push back on it. so many memories at VP but time stands still for no man, we will always have those memories and we can make lots of new ones at a new location.
2.) 16 Apr 2024 09:49:37
Agree daz I've said on here that we need a new stadium its a must for me and your right something is going on that we don't know about fingers crossed it is plans for new stadium
3.) 16 Apr 2024 11:58:39
We need to Whack its common sense if we are to compete with the so called bigger boys we have outgrown VP I'm afraid to say if you have a bigger family you need a bigger house
4.) 16 Apr 2024 12:56:38
Plus we could still name new stadium villa park, no point calling it something else
5.) 16 Apr 2024 14:03:52
I would imagine if we built a new stadium that the naming rights would be sold for extra revenue. if would be nice to still have it called villa park but it’s not the norm these days.

V Sports S.C.S., a joint venture of Nassef Sawiris and Wesley Edens and the owner of Aston Villa FC and Aston Villa Women FC, announced today the completion of the previously announced agreement with Atairos under which Atairos will become a minority partner in V Sports.
They have by the looks of it have a 6.5 billion outlay and will invest in the infrastructure at VP this is great news for us reading into it a little looks like we will be getting a staduim upgrade afterall.They are one of the largest companies who have stakes in Sky I believe although I might be wrong.

The only English team to win in Europe this week is? Don't worry we will try and keep the flag flying high UTV
1.) 11 Apr 2024 23:09:01
Every Lille helps.
2.) 11 Apr 2024 23:46:19
It’s not often I shout for English teams in Europe but the one week I was banking on a few wins to help our quest for extra champions league spot they let me down, all except the mighty villa ??
28 Mar 2024 19:07:40
For all those who can attend the matches we are tonight hearing the sad news that Siddy Cowans has now gone into a nursing home with his Dementia he will always be a true Villa legend and it would be a fitting tribute like we did with Petrov to sing his name loud and proud for the remainder of the season.
10 Mar 2024 15:20:54
Very bad day at the office there but we go again what ever happens this season has been unreal" DO YOU WANT TO BET AGAINST US" UTV
1.) 10 Mar 2024 16:28:36
Exactly daz? we have had some bad results this season and always bounced back, we have beaten the best of them this season while crippled with injuries, no prizes in March, it’s still our best season in years whatever happens. some people are calling for change of tactics but today we changed and it didn’t work, last 2 games we played more long balls than we did all season and it just doesn’t suit our players, we should stick to what has gotten us this far. on to the next one. UTV??
2.) 10 Mar 2024 17:23:06
Exactly Whack we've had some bad performances this season but by God the good out weigh the bad we are not fourth for a reason we are there because we are a bloody good side.Again today because we have got beat there has been more posts for the life of me I don't know why bust one thing I do know is that that was reckless by Mginn but I had to laugh when the Spurs player saw who tackled him and went straight back down again My MEATBALL.
09 Mar 2024 11:54:23
Good thread for me personally I'd sell Kamara who cost nothing and Ramsey who also cost us nothing and Digne who is one of the highest paid this should get us near 80 million and with other revenue should give us circa 100 million hopefully that will be enough to help with restructuring.
19 Jul 2023 15:55:40
Ooo welcome back Chris
16 Jul 2023 18:18:25
The big one they are talking about Dave is Lukaku.Personally I think he will be a bit disruptive in our dressing room seems a bit of a journey man to me hope this is not true.

It's the fans that make the revenue along with sponsors more fans more sponsors equals more money

02 Apr 2024 17:48:58
Agreed Scott.Personally I'd go with Bailey playing a false 9 throwing Duran in against this lot all I can see is as you say a booking and him throwing his arms about but I might be wrong.
22 Mar 2024 08:25:57
Agreed 1974 money talk nowadays if this what is needed then so be it!
