Lineker's Left Foot Posted 12 August 2009 Posted 12 August 2009 Just read this on BBC forum website and would do you lads/lassies think. Tosh or not?? Billionaire talk
Bryn Posted 12 August 2009 Posted 12 August 2009 I advise that the staff off the forum put a blanket over this until anything materialises, it'll be one giant ballache.
Benji Posted 12 August 2009 Posted 12 August 2009 If the source is real the lad hasn't done his father any favours haha Sacked in the morning!
Babylon Posted 12 August 2009 Posted 12 August 2009 Look this is all "my mate said" etc etc. Until we hear something else, or someone credible mentions it then I think it should stay a rumour. Fellow lurking mods... what do you think?
josh_baskin Posted 12 August 2009 Posted 12 August 2009 This has flanimal written all over it. And also another rumour I heard about was Jet from Gladiators and Rodger Moore starting a consortium to buy the club.
davieG Posted 12 August 2009 Posted 12 August 2009 Well this is third time it's been mentioned on here. Doesn't make it anymore reliable mind. If it's true let's hope they can at least match the £25mill Mandaric put in
Benji Posted 12 August 2009 Posted 12 August 2009 And also another rumour I heard about was Jet from Gladiators and Rodger Moore starting a consortium to buy the club. Desparate signing written all over it, never going to be a success
flanimal Posted 12 August 2009 Posted 12 August 2009 Cripes! BILLIONAIRES! LEICESTER! Can't.... type.... so.... excited! If we were billionaires, when it came to transfers.... we could buy ANYONE! This will be the end of me!
Guest Bilo Posted 12 August 2009 Posted 12 August 2009 This rumour does indeed keep coming up but it could just as easily be wishful thinking rather than anything concrete. When I hear the rumour from more reliable sources than some bloke on 606 I'll start listening. Even if (which I'm very sceptical about) there are billionaires looking at the club, it's no guarantee of success. We could just as easily get a Flavio Briatore as a Lerner or Abramovich.
davieG Posted 12 August 2009 Posted 12 August 2009 Oh why did we let Mattock go? A couple of weeks and we could have matched WBA's deal.

Why oh why did the Merc let Blanderson go? He was THE most reliable source re takeovers and buy outs.
flanimal Posted 12 August 2009 Posted 12 August 2009 I think it's unlikely. A rich Leicester City seems kind of absurd.
Fox92 Posted 12 August 2009 Posted 12 August 2009 Seen this (well not this exact thread) a couple of times on here now although I am still not sure whether to believe it or not. Anyway, would welcome the move
flanimal Posted 12 August 2009 Posted 12 August 2009 Are these 'billionaires' supposedly pals of Mandaric?
ob1kanobe0 Posted 12 August 2009 Posted 12 August 2009 Just read this on BBC forum website and would do you lads/lassies think. Tosh or not??Billionaire talk oohya, i heard there were some billionaire guests at the Swabsea game from someone very reliable who doesn't joke around. Question is, why would A billionaire be at a city match?

Question is, why would A billionaire be at a city match? I've heard the same from about 15 people, who all reckon they know someone... in reality they know bugger all and it all got started by some random and snow balled through all the websites... just like my Football rumours thing.

It's probably easy to spot a couple of Yanks but Billionaires do they go around with big badges on saying I'm a Billionaire
Guest Bilo Posted 12 August 2009 Posted 12 August 2009 It's probably easy to spot a couple of Yanks but Billionaires do they go around with big badges on saying I'm a Billionaire Bill Gates is fairly recognisable.
ithuriel Posted 12 August 2009 Posted 12 August 2009 I've heard the same from about 15 people, who all reckon they know someone... in reality they know bugger all and it all got started by some random and snow balled through all the websites... just like my Football rumours thing. The rumour started at the footbal ground. All that was mentioned there was that MM had some billionaire guests , nothing more
Babylon Posted 12 August 2009 Posted 12 August 2009 The rumour started at the footbal ground.All that was mentioned there was that MM had some billionaire guests , nothing more I saw something on the net before the game.

I didn't hear it via the web, this was at the game. Again, from someone who wouldn't joke about saying theres billionaire guests at the club.
