May he RIP. Seemed like a very charismatic and likeable man. But I don't quite buy the whole "saviour" narrative. His business model was to buy troubled football clubs on the cheap, make them semi-viable again, then quickly sell them on again to someone, anyone, for a nice profit, without much care for who he was selling to.
Sold Portsmouth to Gaydamak, who then proceeded to asset strip the club.
Sold Sheff Wed to Chansiri, who is now in the process of doing the same.
We were very fortunate that KP were not as bad in that regard (although it's turned very sour the last few years).
