Popular Post PieFacE Posted May 18, 2016 VT Supporter Popular Post Share Posted May 18, 2016 (edited) Whilst I can't wait for Randy to leave the club, and I really really can't wait, I'm struggling to get excited by this takeover. In fact, i'm feeling incredibly cautious about it all. I know it's hard for someone to come in and do worse than Lerner, but people were saying the same about Doug and Lerner has managed to achieve that. Ultimately, Lerner failed because he didn't understand football or the culture surrounding it. So now we're supposedly getting taken over by a Chinese investor, and we will be the first English club to be owned by a Chinese owner/company, and that kinda scares me. It's nothing to do with race, it's just I fear that the lack of understanding that Randy had for football could rear it's ugly head again and we could be left in an even worse position than we are in now. My hope, is that whoever does takeover immediately does what Randy Lerner failed to do, and that's surround himself with people who do have an understanding of football, if anything is to be learnt by the complete and utter failing of Randy's time here, it's that guessing your way through football does not work. We need a board, we need a vision, we need a philosophy that doesn't change every time a manager comes and goes, we need investment in the right areas, we need to not waste money on players who do not want to even be here and we need leadership, on and off the pitch.

Grasshopper Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 Last night I dreamt that Girls Aloud kidnapped me, took me to a hotel, tied me to the bedposts and s*xually abused me all night. I woke up all sweaty and totally knackered. Surely it was not a dream? .......anyway back to reality. How's the takeover going? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No journalist knows the exact terms of any deal. Some are saying £100m, some £75m and now we have £60m. I think Pats saying it'll be a lower initial fee with a lump if we go up. I think this was muted a few weeks ago. I'd say this is the tricky negotiation point if true. Nearly all saying end of week so Friday if a listed company for stock exchange? Sunday at latest for an individual? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
