FrankieADZ Posted 6 August 2010 Posted 6 August 2010 I thought he'd have a bit more wonga than that oh well.
jonno24 Posted 6 August 2010 Posted 6 August 2010 I dont understand if this bloke is worth 180 million then who are the other 7-8 people that were with him at the sunderland match are they worth any money either bit pissed off that everyone was going on about petronas and how we would be billionaires
KFS Posted 6 August 2010 Posted 6 August 2010 Everyone needs to calm down a bit. I doubt this guy will be the only investor, it's a consortium after all!
tomtom Posted 6 August 2010 Posted 6 August 2010 At least we'll be able to buy aftershave and fags at halftime now aswell as our pint !
Jimothy Posted 6 August 2010 Posted 6 August 2010 Problem is that Mandaric is a massive jebend himself. Better the massive jebend you know than the massive jebend you don't though.
Alexikokopops Posted 6 August 2010 Posted 6 August 2010 doesn't sound like he's that much better of than mandy... i'm going to remain resolutely sceptical until billions are cited... Doesn't consortium imply there are more than just him? Also, it's still about £40 million more than Mandy. $180 million - is that fucking it? :rolleyes:
Guest Bilo Posted 6 August 2010 Posted 6 August 2010 Disappointed. It's Bill Gates or nobody so far as I'm concerned.
Trickyfox Posted 6 August 2010 Posted 6 August 2010 just seen a news report on the bbc this morning about this, taking a look at the news sites on the web looks a done deal...

Jay Posted 6 August 2010 Posted 6 August 2010 http://www.bangkokpost.com/news/investigation/21361/scandal-at-suvarnabhumi KING POWER = DODGE CITY yeah if you google King Power you do get some interesting stories... even more if you throw the word scam into the mix as well
James. Posted 6 August 2010 Posted 6 August 2010 If this takeover were a supermarket it'd be fucking Aldi.
lavrentis Posted 6 August 2010 Posted 6 August 2010 Probably not really that important but King Power forecasts revenue fall. Can still get a chance to win six Fiat 500's though
darko2k7 Posted 6 August 2010 Posted 6 August 2010 I just get a really bad feeling in the pit of my stomach when reading storys about this bloke, what an anti climax and if he is head of consortium wot does that say about the other's if he is the best of the lot
Babylon Posted 6 August 2010 Posted 6 August 2010 Anyone expecting some billionaire throwing cash left right and centre needs to look in the mirror and check their reality.
BigBawsFaeTheShaws Posted 6 August 2010 Posted 6 August 2010 Rakman's daughter Vera: Anyone for Pontoon?
haraven Posted 6 August 2010 Posted 6 August 2010 Anyone expecting some billionaire throwing cash left right and centre needs to look in the mirror and check their reality. Think Babylon sums up any "take over" or business transaction like this perfectly. Let's just hope we get some funding for a proper challenge for the promotion, and some funding for making it a stable PL team. I all fairness, I'd take that.

Stability, not having to sell players and a bit of cash to spend and I'm happy.
Alexikokopops Posted 6 August 2010 Posted 6 August 2010 What did people expect? Some tycoon of Manchester City proportions coming to the club and throwing out millions upon millions of pounds? Jesus wept.
davieG Posted 6 August 2010 Posted 6 August 2010 How long before people are saying 4 King Leicester, 4 King Mandaric, 4 King Vichai!
Babylon Posted 6 August 2010 Posted 6 August 2010 How long before people are saying 4 King Leicester, 4 King Mandaric, 4 King Vichai! I've been saying the first two for years.
James. Posted 6 August 2010 Posted 6 August 2010 We should impose a minimum wealth policy on any potential suitors to stop jokers like this trying to take us over. From a bit of research I would say that anyone who isn't worth at least the nominal GDP of the Isle of Man (approximately $2.7bn for the uninformed out there) should immediately be told to look elsewhere.
Samilktray Posted 6 August 2010 Posted 6 August 2010 Cant believe we've been taken over by someone who may aswell be living in poverty.
Callabinho Posted 6 August 2010 Posted 6 August 2010 How many championship clubs have an owner who is worth an estimated £113 million? (It would be intresting if any do so let me know if you know of any!) Plus it’s a Consortium, so he could be just one of a few names? Maybe there are two or three chaps with a fair bit of bob? I am not too upset he's only worth £113 mill, as long as he doesn’t take us up shit creek with a paddle and leave us stranded. I am sure we will have sufficient funds to challenge for promotion! And we will have a colourful sponsor on our shirts!!
Callabinho Posted 6 August 2010 Posted 6 August 2010 Acc to this Nigel Doughty is worth more haha My link
