Uncertainties surround Birmingham City takeover July 21, 2022 Although long suffering Birmingham City fans have been heartened by the prospect of new owners, many uncertainties surround the completion of the deal. Birmingham Sports Holdings (BSH) has owned 75 per cent of the club since 2016, with a British Virgin Islands-registered company called Oriental Rainbow Investments owning 21.64 per cent. According to the official paperwork, BSH’s majority owner is a Chinese businessman named Paul Suen, while Oriental Rainbow’s beneficial owner is Vong Pech, a Chinese-Cambodian businessman. Very little is known about either of them, and neither has been seen much at St Andrew’s. The Athletic, however, understands that the Lopez and Richardson offer breaks down into an up-front payment of £25million to acquire the 21.64 per cent, full operational control of the club and Birmingham City Stadium Limited, the company that owns and operates the stadium. The remaining payment will then come when BSH hands over its shares. Their most recent set of accounts, which deal with the 2020-21 season, show Birmingham lost almost £5million. Not bad, you might be thinking, considering that was a season played behind closed doors because of COVID-19 restrictions on crowds gathering and the club’s turnover fell from £22.8m to £13.7m. But then you remember this is the financial year which includes £26.5m in Jude Bellingham-inspired player-trading profits and that the club lost £18m in 2019-20. They would have lost even more the year before that, but the owners used the then-legal loophole of selling the stadium to themselves, turning a £25m deficit into an £8m loss. This enabled them to avoid breaching the league’s financial fair play rules for a second time. Birmingham had lost £37m in 2017-18. The Athletic has spoken to several people who have had preliminary discussions about bids for Birmingham. One source, who asked to remain anonymous, said the situation was “hopeless”, with the club losing more than £500,000 a month, £8million needed to repair the stadium, a threadbare squad and not much else to come in terms of transfer instalments.

As for the great unwashed being from the City, mate, lets not forget that before Aston Parish became a part of Birmingham Small Heath was a part of Aston

I met him in Dubai on 2 occasion's, firstly his words both him and Craig both went to the Sty and VP as kids and that Craig is a massive Villa Fan, secondly he told me he was going on a pre season tour with the scum to Hong Kong, and believe it or not he genuinely thought Hong Kong was one of the Channel Islands next to Jersey

Nicked off my Facebook page, well done

I met him in Dubai a few years back and he was about to go on a pre season tour with the scum to Hong Kong, and he genuinely thought HK was a part of the Channel Islands, he thought I was winding him up when i said it was part of China,

And lets not forget that Dragon Villa are one of their largest owners

Been to all the previous mentioned games but not one came anywhere near the atmosphere v Man Ure in the 2nd leg semi final of the League Cup at Villa Park in December 23rd 1970. Villa in the old 3rd Division , Manchester arguably the best side in Europe full of fantastic internationals including Bobby Charlton, Denis law, George Best, Brian Kidd, Nobby Stiles, Stepney and others. 65,000 fans recorded at the time with many more on the Holte End than the 28,500 it held, the noise was unbelievable for the whole game, still gives me goose bumps writing this, oh and we beat them 2-1 after 1-1 at old trafford

Villa Park

I think GD means going down
