What is strange to me is Villa seemed to be cutting back and cutting back for years, yet the wage bill was big enough to suggest they could have been paying 20 players £70k a week in the season they got relegated. Looking at their players, I can't quite believe that. Also, I've heard various people suggest the losses of around £250M Lerner made don't tell the whole story as he was charging, according to some sources, 20% a year in interest at times. That would explain the huge debt build up but obviously I don't know the facts. <br /><br />Looking at their income, their transfers dealings and the lack of quality in their squad over the years you'd think they would have wiped their debt out and be operating at at profit by 2015. Some things just don't add up.Thinktankhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00756374737313426689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-487486960623783530.post-64913650323752356992016-07-27T20:15:30.619+02:002016-07-27T20:15:30.619+02:00Love this, really awsome article =)Love this, really awsome article =)Erminhttp://www.sport24.nunoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-487486960623783530.post-30877244684982717992016-05-19T19:35:46.058+02:002016-05-19T19:35:46.058+02:00you really know your stuff and i enjoy reading you...you really know your stuff and i enjoy reading your analysis. thank you for sharing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-487486960623783530.post-70339730579243266932016-04-23T10:44:11.424+02:002016-04-23T10:44:11.424+02:00Milan clubs, roma série à please Milan clubs, roma série à please Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-487486960623783530.post-73673391694507183372016-04-04T14:44:08.975+02:002016-04-04T14:44:08.975+02:00Aston Villa is a club with perfection, indeed... g...Aston Villa is a club with perfection, indeed... great news!!!Kevon Robinsonhttp://www.golden-goals.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-487486960623783530.post-81572927925467853232016-03-22T14:09:43.520+01:002016-03-22T14:09:43.520+01:00Fantastic article as always guys, thanks.

Investment in the right places, expertise and genuine ambition to compete at the very top of the game would transform the current culture at the club.
