Who's your money on in the takeover 'battle'?

[Blue Smoke]

Hopefully his first action is ringing thelwell and saying "tell those red manc nobheads, over my dead body they having our boys on the cheap"

I'm warming to Friedkin and there seems to be some good will from Roma fans. But you can't have two clubs. Like a man with two wives.

The Amish have loads of wifes.

I think you mean the Mormons. And the Saudis.

Our success you imagine, depends upon how he's structuring the debts we need to pay. Will he look at us as a cash cow to feed his roma team? Will he be looking for high interest on his investments?

In an ideal world he will find the funds to pay off the debts and fund the stadium with very little repayments (at least for a while) we need to have an income that isnt stolen away by interest repayments.
Then its a case of, can he maximise the branding for stadium naming rights and sponsorship, and finally, IS he willing to give all those available funds to build the team? (Everton)

Hard to see uefa having battles with city Chelsea and united and other clubs over multi team ownership it's only going to get worse

We;ll see. It's an issue and it needs dealing with.

I've come to a point where, the faster Moshiri's out. I'd be most happy.

Who, what, when, whatever.

Just get that arsemuncher out of here.

He could sell us to the redshite at this point. Get the lad out!

Deprnds onana looks like the one who both thr player and club pushing to go, while branthwaite what ornstein has said we have set a 75 mill price. I would prob accept 75 both what the club does with the money and who this guy brings in to run the club also maybe trying to add to the sporting side of recruitment will telll you more

We need to see this apparent owner make a big statement before the season starts.

The exclusivity won’t take as long as, unlike 777, he can show proof of funds to the PL. I dare say this will be completed within the next 2-3 weeks

If it drags on and we're selling key players and buying in tat and then the window closes, that'll be my mind made up on Freidkin.

Deeds. That's all he'll be judged on. And that Roma model is a recipe for disaster with us. We have a terrible scouting network that's on its knees and and we have no young talent coming through...and we have no real pulling power for good young players that wont cost the earth.

We're in a world of trouble if Freidkin tries and lays the template of what's happened at Roma onto us. It'll be a terrible fit.

We need cash spent on a threadbare squad that'll get even more threadbare by August.

I'm noticing a lot of irrelevant noise in the last 20 pages, perhaps 50. It looks like we have been bought by a very good setup that will give us stability and ting. Please keep this all on track.

Vaffanculo. Sei un moderatore?

 

[AS Roma_fan]

The Friedkin Group is extremely solid. There won't be problems with funds.

Dan Friedkin doesn't speak much (he never released a statement since he took over Roma). He usually speaks with facts.

Under this point of view, just praise for him.

They're spivs. That's all they are. They made their fortunes by flogging cars.

FFS you'd think they were saving mankind.

They need to retain Branthwaite AND get their hands in their pockets.

If they dont do that then they're no 'kin use to us. We may as well have Moshiri hang another few months for another buyer.
