Brumstopdogs Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 What I don't like about that article is the mentioning of Donald Trump. Let's hope this isn't a load of guff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amo69 Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Has to be incorrect or a wind up imo - don't see this going anywhere Based on what? It's the most credible speculation I've seen since the club was announced for sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

juanpabloangel18 Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Tevfik Arif - a former official with the Soviet Trade Ministry who has moved to the US to become a construction magnate and an underground head of a money-laundering network involved in financing terrorist groups in the Middle East and the former Soviet Union. Arif was arrested in 2010 for allegedly organizing a prostitution ring. http://www.kavkazcenter.com/eng/content/2013/05/13/17780.shtml Seems a good lad.

avfcwills10 Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Just found a piece that he threw an evening and spent $38,000 on everybody for the meal. Seems Abramovic level $$$$ to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amo69 Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Who cares if the guys a bit dirty. Lerner was squeaky clean and look how that turned out. Ambramovic is as dodgy as they come and we would all love someone like him to own the Villa. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isa Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Who cares if the guys a bit dirty. Lerner was squeaky clean and look how that turned out. Ambramovic is as dodgy as they come and we would all love someone like him to own the Villa. My thoughts exactly. I don't get why people would rather mediocrity just because we have a 'nice' owner. I'd have someone like Abramovich here any day of the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRO Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 (edited) Do you think that Abramovich or his like, would have unconditionally carried on signing players who have given the club poor return. No......... I don't thinks so either. This mystical sugar daddy that is going to bail out managers poor signings......ain't ever going to come. its purely a figment of some imagination.
