Owners

He's buying Derby.

Because their supporters haven’t suffered enough already

moomba how do you rate Todd Boehly as an owner?

I don't know too much about the dynamics of the ownership group, but you couldn't ask for much more from Guggenheim from a Dodgers perspective.

Jim White predictably being a clueless kiss arse

She also said ..

"I don't think that's particularly fair to be honest. But we do have to hold all of our relationships to account."

So why is it unfair? Not surprising her comments of course considering her position

* she's a massive trash bag.

Maybe, maybe not.. it’s a new project for them, I think overall Newcastle are probably a bigger club than Chelsea anyway or minimum at the same level

Nah reckon the glamour of Chelsea/London would’ve have served their sports washing needs better. If this war happened when Newcastle offer was still in discussion phase they would’ve have dropped it like a hot potato

Saudis are probably upset they bought Newcastle though

Imagine they quickly disposed of Newcastle (maybe offer it back to Cashley for 200 million) and swooped on Chelsea. That would be some 4d chess.

Finding it hard to believe anyone in their right mind would just bid what Roman wants considering his need to dispose of his ownership in the club before he ends up like Usmanov.


The finance expert was saying it would be around the 2 billion mark.

This witch hunt on Russians and RA is pathetic and racist.

 

[Zidane98]

Long overdue this.

Interesting. Good to see a middle east buyer not linked to some middle eastern sportswashing state. Moshiri is another.


Suspect the money wont be so forthcoming without the link to the government.

Moshiri was a front for Usmanov at Arsenal.

Not a good look for someone involved jn running a Premier League club.. Assad is pretty much Putins protege and one of the biggest human rights abusers in the world.

Also worth noting UAE were one of a few UN members who abstained from a vote to condemn the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

It also sounds like Russia has reached out to OPEC nations to ensure they dont increase oil production to replace Russian oil under sanctions thus ensuring oil prices remain high.

Government critical of Mansour meeting

Manchester City owner Sheikh Mansour is criticised by the UK government for recently meeting with Syrian president Bashar al-Assad.

Labour MP Chris Bryant, chair of the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Russia, shared those concerns and, in an interview with The Telegraph, went on to question if Mansour was a "fit and proper person to be owning a football club".

Doubt anything happens but Chris Bryant put a lot of pressure on the government to sanction Abramovich so who knows.

If Assad commits more chemical weapon attacks the UK government may look to punish any collaborators.

The good news is there is no dirt on the Glazers (as far as we know) that could force them to sell MUFC, long may their glorious regime at Man Utd continue for decades to come
