Takeover News/Rumours

[Raich Carter]

Harvard educated who set up a company at 22 and made millions... Also ran for president....

class that mate, how did it help Sunderland?

Feels like the time when Brian Potter handed over the Phoenix Club to Jerry St Clair and still called all the shots

The takeover has felt more like this all along:

don't we want them out of the club completely?
Maybe it's a bit underwhelming. It's early days, though, and it could be the best move in the history of the club, as we don't know their intentions or anyway.
I'll be more positive from now on.

As long as they aren't running the club I don't care

People need to look into how rich this family is like. Loaded is an understatement

Two more people to come onboard with him aswell

Its exciting news this mind

Well the new fella shares a potential trust fund with his three brothers that’s currently controlled by his mum. Satori, who knows. We’re not mega rich. Who’s to say that % this rich lad has either.

By the way, the significance of Louis-Dreyfus's wealth being in a Trust Fund has just dawned on me. It means that the purse strings are actually controlled by Mme Dreyfus, his mother. The one still has a stake in Marseille. This looks very similar to the situation involving the Rybovlev's at Monaco, where Rybovlev controls the funding, but has his duaghter (Mrs Sartori) as chairman.

Regardless of how much wealth Dreyfus has, my gut feeling is that this will not end well.

What's Seinfeld got to do with it.

Please help a dizzy man

Lad's related to Julia louis-Dreyfus...Elaine from Seinfeld. Bit of a stretch tbf

 

[Sons of The Wear]

Very Pleased something is happening... 22 year old lad buying the club is a shock, can you imagine your 22 year old self buying safc ? He's a trust fund kid, and would therefore hope is being very well advised

How about him just been a front? Cannot please some people.

Donald no longer has a controlling stake so yes it is a takeover

Its not a take over if the same chancers have anything to do with the club. IMO.
They've just brought someone else in, expanded the current boys club.

Easy through his contacts he got a 22 year old billionaire heir to invest in Sunderland

 

[PTR]

Everyone says that, but it is

Hiring Di Canio was absolutely shite

as was being taken over by Donald

Di Canio's brief spell was mint tbh.

The actress Julia Louis-dreyfuss was in Seinfeld. No idea if she's related to this lad:

So if he wants funds for players etc he needs to ask his mam?

There's no IMO about it. It is factually a takeover.

How much football know how are we getting?

I’m sure I read somewhere the new owners were rumoured to be experienced football people with deep pockets.

I see they are loaded but will they know what to do with it?

His Da owned Marseille like

 

[wilberforce]

let's hope they have a plan, and plenty of expertise (and money) to execute it !

Your opinion is irrelevant. There's a definition of a takeover, which if it's met, means it's a takeover.

It's like you telling us your interpretation of what the boiling point of water is.
