Villa are being taken over by a group including Howard Hodgson & Ian Taylor along with a few other businessmen. Being bankrolled by a big Chinese Equity firm supposedly worth £6bn. Deal will be completed by the beginning of July.

Ah so you've figured out my post on 12/06/15 about a well known villa fan(Hodgson) and former player who used to stand in the Holte End(Taylor) being backed by China Equity group. Did you know that Randy is giving 30 mill of the 180 mill back for new players as a goodbye goodwill jesture.

The figure is £150m plus £27m to cover the cost of the clubs overdraft that has been built up over the last three years. I don't know anything about Randy giving £30m as a parting gift. I know that KCP are also involved in the deal.

Don't know how true this is but it would be great having Ian Taylor involved! Prope football man and Villa through and through

I could of confused the parting gift as covering the overdraft, the Chinese equity group are worth 7 billion. And KCP are definitely involved. I didn't mention Hodgsons name last week (instead used clues i.e well known fan) as a NDA was signed but you've lifted the lid. The thing is when I mentioned it I was mocked last week, hopefully they will believe you.
