Takeover Rumours

No they wouldn't.

City? They would. You won't find their owners in the richest lists because those lists are for individuals. Aye, it's a disgrace we've allowed a club to be bought by a f***ing state, but that's what's happened. They are run by a state. A rich one.

Who else?

I'll believe it when it happens. I think people are getting carried away with it to be honest, we first have to get out of this league and have a real good go at promotion for the Prem first. If we had been in the Prem already I might have felt a little different about it but we should not need billions to get out of league 1 that's for sure. Players who are worth a few million in the Prem have gone up to around £20m-£30m will they be prepared to throw around £100m in when we get there? Because we will need a whole new team again by then.
 
Clinging onto the hope that we are a play thing to this group. When you're worth that much money with literally billions lying around, a cheap £300m profit on a club probably wouldn't be worth the bother or risk. Let's hope they want the project of turning us into a football force.
 
methven is the one who knows these guys..introduced them to safc..so they will want him on board..

thpugh i agree with you..i havent warmed to him and am not sure what he has positively conributed..

I wouldn’t worry mate, my boss in the same building doesn’t have the foggiest what I contribute so you have no chance.
Perhaps if our chino man got up in the morning and shared his outlook calendar, did us a monthly report on his activity and perhaps a 121 every 3 months we might have clear insight.
Seriously that guy has been all over everything we do as a club. It’s why it’s a lean mean machine with supporter engagement and now attractive for others to buy into, where as Short couldn’t get a sniff

It doesn't matter that much. If they are to get the best price for us and make a profit, they'll only be selling to someone who really would be rich enough to only want a play-thing.
 
Three bankers/hedge fund types, who are just about billionaires themselves. The big money is the fourth - Michael Dell, of Dell Technology. You know, the computers. Sold f***ing shitloads of them and is the 39th richest man in the world.

All-told, only really City in English football who would have more money than our owners, especially when you throw Sartori in. Big. No suggesting they will spend like that, but still - it's huge.
When can we start counting the chickens ?
