Sorry but your wrong.

Sorry but your wrong.

"Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation" was founded in 1865 in Hong Kong. HSBC Holdings was established in 1990 and became the parent company to The Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation in preparation for its purchase of Midland Bank in 1992 or 93 and a change of domicile as safety reasons due to the transfer of sovereignty of Hong Kong from the UKto PRC in 1997.

At the end of the day it is all tied in to success on the pitch. If we are not in the Champions League corporate sponsors will not want to throw money at us. About time the yanks realised that and gave Rafa some money to spend.

[dom9]

Err, there is no money...

I know there's a lot of tongue-in-cheek in this thread but some people need to have a word with themselves, for example

Theather of Dreams?

****ing hell mate.

Which is why we will go nowhere with these owners and why they need to **** off asap.

i dont see them ever being able to get the new stadium off the ground and if we don't get top 4 this season the whole house of cards could unravel

Would that not be Rafa's fault? That team should be more than capable of top 4, if not challenging for the title.

I agree it should be, but how much longer will this continue to be a top 4 squad when there is a chronic and consistent lack of investment in the playing staff while we are outspent in the transfer market by not only Man City but also the likes of Spurs and Villa?

The yanks' business model is unsustainable IMO. Hicks' criticism of Man City's owners' were the words of someone who is running scared.

Are Villa a foirce in the transfer market?

Are Villa a foirce in the transfer market?

This summer I think they bought in Warnock, Beye, Delph and Downing from the top of my head with most of the Barry money going on Downing. I'm not sure it is the direct head to head spend that is the sole factor here though - essentially to be a regular top four club you have to be able to compete in the PL and CL when challenged by three teams now who have the finances and and a squad who can compete one year to beat you to 4th. If you lose 4th then you lose income and potentially players and it is hard to get back.

The problem is that without decent investment each summer you run danger that if you have a bad year which is always possible you will not make the CL the next year. We had an excellent first team + a few top options last year but we lost two starters and one excellent option (with two of these being key personalities in the group). Our squad is arguably no weaker when Aquilani and Johnson are fit but we are no stronger and were always going to have to have a transition period. We were light in numbers last year and this year injuries have exposed that.

When was the last time Villa won anything?

When was the time Villa finished in the the top 4?

If Villa is our benchmark, then we have the right owners.
