Re: AVFC Takeover Thread, Rumours, Gossip and Hearsay...all goes here

Well Wikipedia have him down as a Villa player

Oh you're one of THOSE sort of people. Carry on Captain Bringdown

Sorry! that's where you're wrong, I love Villa but hate people who come on here to mock others, if it's true well and good but until it's official (it's just media crap to me)

Nobody is mocking others. You swept in here with the air of negativity when all people were doing was saying  " ___signing if true" IF TRUE. You didn't have to act like you wondered away from the sugarbag farm with your stupid emoticon smiley posts and FFS rambling.

"Swept in here with the air of negativity"  "if true" . Love the sugarbag bit, but one thing i'm not is stupid, never mind only fools work with horses now days.

Hope the horses don't pick on you. Only just saw the post I'll stop. Just annoys the fuck out of me the negativity when it should be a time for celebration and optimism. Some Villa fans should support Newcastle where the revel in being miserable

I like this signing. As many have said, it shows that we finally have money to spend. I expect news in the takeover next week, as I have said before, I think we are a lot further down the line as the media would have you believe.

People forget the club gets tax rebates etc when signing players and paying certain wages of an exceptionally high ilk, A 3 year contract at £65k a week after 40% tax rate kicks is NET £4,056,000m over the full 3 years which equates to £1.3m per year that is a snip for a free transfer and represents excellent business especially given after tax he is likely on £26k per week.

Sorry for the boring maths lesson

What in the hell are you talking about?

I work in the tax industry and nothing you said makes a word of sense.

Well hopefully TTS will come back and explain what he meant.

Richards signed on 65k a week. As first signings go that's a good one and the wages indicate new money on board for sure.

I got told this info this morning (minus the 65k) and that Andros Townsend wants to play for Sherwood again, my info came from my Villa supporting work colleague whose cousin knows Wiemann and Bacuna.

With all the takeover talk I forgot all about Townsend, was meant to be at VP last week according to loads of rumours!

I used to work for the inland revenue many years ago - and agree you with you thats just not how taxation works at all - I wonder where people get these ideas from ? - the daily mail ?

People make mistakes etc etc! Let him have his right of reply and see if that sheds any light on it. The heat does funny things to people. For me we don't even know if he's coming let alone his salary so how much tax he's paying is irrelevant really.

This is what happens when you get rid of selling sweets in jars a quarter pound at a time, yeah sure the guy behind the counter had too much grease in his hair and one funny eye and absolutely no need to wear a white coat but at least we could do basic maths.

Indeed. Hence the need to step in and say something. We won't go there again.

At some point tomorrow I shall have some news for you all hopefully no guarantee but meeting up with back room staff will do all I can to get some info UTV

[UnclePanda]

Why would you turn down 90k a week for 65k if nothing BIG is happening at the club

I thought that too.

hes a villa fan, i believe

[UnclePanda]

Well Wikipedia have him down as a Villa player

and still on Fiorentinas squad list.
But its only wiki..

Ive been informed that my info is outdated and things have changed so I've removed my original post.

So the Chinese backers with the villa men fronted bid is no more ?

Doesn't mean it's fallen through does it, hope not was looking forward to waving goodbye to Lerner.

I think the goalposts on this deal are on wheels!!

Nobody...... nobody, knows what is happening. As I said hours ago, the fact this rumour got out at all should of been enough to write it off.

given suits admission that the info is wrong and outdated I've removed the links as I don't think it's fair if any confidentiality has been breached.
