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

[davek]

Can you define "Blue Knight" please

A blue knight is someone like Kenwright and his mates like Jimmy Mulville etc back in 1999/2000...or this Bell and Downing lot now.

They don't have the financial muscle for this struggle, and if, like the last time with Kenwright, they come in with outsiders then they run the risk of being a Trojan horse.

Who's your preference out of the groups we know of mate?

Wouldnt it be nice if Dan Friedkin got the nod from moshiri and bought a whole lot of our crap players for roma for the money needed to avoid psr before end of june.

Not if you're a Roma fan, they've been working hard to get there wages down to close to the UEFA 70% target.

A load of old Toffee tart would be a massive blow .

With PSR rules personal wealth doesn’t matter as long as they have the funds to buy the club.

I don't think I've got one yet. They all have flaws.

I'm not sure I want anyone already invested in other clubs, tbh.

We want the undivided attention of a stupendously wealthy individual who doesn't need to have the input of Blue Knights and isn't in it to back them up.

Patience will be required, I reckon. IMO it's still early days.

As said, Bell and Downing could become a re-run of the Kenwright era.

I detect a whiff of ego about their bid.

Sky just reported that the consortium is backed by Michael Bell, I’m sure it’s Michael Dell?

 

[Blue Smoke]

I think someone running another top team already, would give a huge advantage with player recruitment and the way the things work.

Yeah that rings a Dell

Moshiri will be extremely fortunate if in the years ahead he claws back 100m.

You're miles off with your 400-600m.

I meant including the loans from MSP etc sorry.
