Takeover: The nationality of our new owners will be (approximately) ?

[ianefc]

Last year the prices were announced at the start of February.

Probably delayed until the takeover is finalised.

I doubt that somehow.

Kenwright is a good football chairman who doesn't interfere and is a shrewd operator/negotiator in terms of transfers (with the odd exception).

His biggest problem has always been that he wasn't rich enough. Him being a liaison between the manager and a new board wouldn't be the worst idea.

I can't wait for the @davek mega-fume when it's revealed that after the Moshi takeover and the dust has all settled, that it's boys-pen Bill who is still running the club.

...I'll take that on the chin and sit back with a smirk watching the bigger fume as BK hands El Conquistador another contract. Every cloud...

McNulty has updated his article to suggest it is Moshiri and news is imminent:

I don't think it is solely Moshiri,the original Mail article stated "investors"

Aye probably some kind of consortium

 

[BoysInBlue]

I doubt that somehow.

I also doubt that any of this is spin to 'boost ticket sales', which basically amount to a tiny proportion of our revenues in comparison to tv monies.

Arab money > American money.

can't wait to see the face on the Kopites when we become richer than them

Kenwright is a good football chairman

Not in this multiverse

Anyone know when season tickets go on sale?

Wrong thread mate...this is for guessing the nationality of our prospective new owners.

'£100m you say? Vladimir over here, the lad with no hair and less patience, can give you a 90% reduction on your appendages. How generous of you to negotiate'.

Moshiri = part of that class of British or British based/trained bean-counters and lawyers helping the oligarchs and their knuckle dragging KGB henchmen navigate the labyrinthine world of global business practices back in the 90s. Some of them took a header out of a helicopter, other's boxed clever and were pulled closer to their master's side.

The problem with Kenwright is/was trusting and appointing the wrong people (Earl, Elstone), having absolute 0 transparency with the fans and then your point stands too. But that's my opinion.

Wow.

On a serious note, the thought of Kenwright having a say isn't the worst thing in the world. The fear of the unknown really did worry me somewhat. So rich owners with Kenwright continuing the off the field stuff we do, won't be the end of the world.

It will.

I know more about business than Robert Elstone and I spend my days sitting in my undies watching hentai porn.
