Takeover Rumours

The amount of money he could make on us will be fuck all in comparison. Even if he sold it's for 10 times what he pays in 5 years it'll be nothing to him. He'd have made more in interest alone.

These are only here to achieve something I believe.
To gain a foothold and influence in the UK post Brexit ,as they know we will be looking to the USA after 31st Oct
 

Where we up too? How anyone can keep up to every page on this thread is beyond me 😂
 
I don't care how rich you are, if you buy something for £40m and sell it for 10 times in 5 years then you are going to be interested. £400m is not to be sniffed at, even if you are worth what he is.
There's 4 of them for starters so that's £100m each (if equal shares). Now take away the millions they'll be investing, say £200m and also take away the original £40m then that's a £40m return each over 5 years or £8m a year.

So now do you really think the main reason they're in it is just for the money? Of course not, it's something bigger than just buying a club cheap in the hope of selling big in a few years. It's the potential legacy of bringing a sleeping club. a community and area back to life by bringing investment/development/regeneration into the stadium, area around the stadium and possibly further areas in and around Sunderland.

It's been hinted at by Reiver and if this takeover finally happens I think it's more than just a few blokes wanting to make a few million quid pocket change buying a club on the cheap and selling in a few years once they get back to the Premier League.
