How has this happened when we have not been paid  

Aston Villa have signed former West Brom striker Louie Barry from Barcelona... #AVFC

Here's why the hierarchy at #WBA will not be best pleased about it | @SteveMadeley78

Because of the idiots who are running the club that's why. 

   Nothing to do with the "idiots" as you put it. It's the regulations that every club in the land have to abide by. FIFA ruling is that young players can move abroad for a maximum of £235,000 and that's it. If they move within their own country the fee will be set by a tribunal ala' Morgan Rogers to Man City last year, where the "undisclosed fee" was reported to be around £4m.

While I share your worries about our form at the moment, don't blame the "idiots" for things that they can have absolutely no control over. At the moment - if it snowed - it'd be down to our board and chairman    

I'm sorry but I believe it's exactly because of the people running the club.
You have misunderstood where I am coming from - the club has not convinced the leavers this is the place to be, the making DM manager and sacking him had a massive effect on everything the club stands for. Academy staff jumping ship, etc, etc This is why we are loosing our youngters. They don't see us as a family club - the regulations just let them leave IF THEY WANT TO, but it's the "why they are leaving" it's not simply money - hence I hold the people running the club responsible. It's certainly not the rules.
