This should be O/T ! Plus we're getting taken over by Asians so league 2 is going to be very wealthy next season

Curry and rice at half time.....

Somehow I doubt an Asian take over...

Nah, I asked how we would react to it and it is relative to us imo.
I would be twitching like hell if it happened to us!

No doubt the Ayatollah will have his say

Looks a dodgy character to me
Don't see why Kendal S thinks that it is only Asians that are wealthy. Plenty of rich people in Europe or the States....or even in this country Whatever the nationality we must hope they have the interests of the club at heart and not just trying to make a quick buck. Also, let us not forget that we need an owner who knows what he is doing in hiring and firing. Ideally at our level I'd rather have someone who knows bit about our leagues rather than someone who is just going to flash money around.

I seriously doubt anybody investing in a club at our level does it to make a mountain of money....if any money at all.

I could be wrong, but.....

If it's someone with more money than sense, it'll be more of a vanity project to improve their social status. Appoint an famous ex-premier league or international player as the manager for some major media coverage for themselves. Get themselves invited into the right social circuits. Bring in a few higher level players by splashing the cash. All about buying social importance rather than making money.

Not necessarily a bad thing, and far better than some local self-appointed businessman (with the usual flash car and house) who in reality doesn't have much money but knows how to borrow it and likes the idea of owning a footie club, scrapes just enough to buy it, and then robs Peter to pay Paul to keep it going on a shoestring. Now that would be a disaster.

Didn't Robbie Fowler want to own a football team?

What a clever and witty post Kenh, if any ''local businessmen'' with nice houses and cars are contemplating some sort of purchase, that withering broadside should send them packing, so there you have it ''swiss Tony'', piss off, we have got your card marked, you wide boy,you

It's Toni, Mr. P, he is suave and has a nice car, would you like one to tow your trailer?

The next weeks and months will be unbearable with speculation, Barbara will be frantic

Barbara could knit us some giant ''goal covers'', that would sort our dodgy defending out , she could also knit a giant marquee for behind the omega stand, Barbara would bean ideal owner, The Barbara's wool arena sounds ''local''


Imagine on a saturday ''what you doing this weekend mate?''

''Going down the wool!"'

''Mind if I join Ewe!''

That's not a baaa'aad idea!!!
