srsmithusa Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Rovers, really appreciate your humor. I did laugh. Just didn't want to click like because I don't agree with what I think is your point. But well stated, sir, well stated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isa Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 I only saw the 600 Million on TBAR maybe but from reading the Wikipedia of his old club it seems a lot of their funding came through Khaled Bin Sultan. Here are the tweets I promised: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KSV Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 (edited) Yet were buying Senderos. Can't see a buyer close. Let alone a Saudi mega rich owner. Edited June 5, 2014 by KSV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abdomlahor Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 City signed Kompany ten days before they were taken over by Al-Mubarak. A fee was involved obviously, though it shows that signings can happen close to takeovers occurring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThunderPower_14 Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Even then, when City first got taken over they didn't go out and buy the 20 best players in the world the next morning. Even if the dream came true and we had a mega rich takeover, it would still be a process over a few years. Senderos could easily fit into that.

Isa Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 (edited) Even then, when City first got taken over they didn't go out and buy the 20 best players in the world the next morning. They actually kind of did. Remember that they only took over on deadline day and then made a bunch of bids later that day, the only successful one resulting in them hijacking Chelsea's move for Robinho.

Ponky Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 We don't need Messi or Ronaldo. We have Jordan Bowery. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David-Copenhagen Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 We don't need Messi or Ronaldo. We have Jordan Bowery. Yes but for how long??

Amo69 Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 200M to buy a team that has flirted with relegation 3 seasons in a row. Is it really going to happen guys? Has nothing to do with the value. Of course it does because it indicates that a lot more will need to be spent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeyp102 Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Didn't someone say before about some regulations that nothing can be announced for 30 days after announcing club for sale? Maybe we will hear next week?Didn't someone say before about some regulations that nothing can be announced for 30 days after announcing club for sale? Maybe we will hear next week?

TheEgo Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Isa stop spamming the thread with your twitter feed. I'm not sure this has any legs. I think if the asking price is upwards of 150m and Saudis really wanted us, they'd have done it by now. Small change. It will be a steady eddy yank. More of the same, consistent (moderate) investment and hopefully more interest and better day to day management. Sadly is think this is closer to the truth.

omariqy Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 He's not claiming to be ITK just saying he has a hunch that something will happen on June 11th i.e. 30 days after the announcement. Personally I think we will see something closer to the end of the world cup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No claim of itk other than I'm starving and about to have a bacon sarnie (fact) My post was in reply to someone mentioning a 30 day period. 11th June Is 30 days after RL statement. That was my only point. Thanks for the hospitality. I wonder why I post infrequently?!

If any such restrictions do exist (which I doubt) - surley they would be you must announce within - rather than you must not announce - that would legislating secrecy .... Its a private sale IMO, Randy can announce as much or as little as and when he likes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
