DCJonah Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 UK based consortium pretty uninspiring if true We got the exciting foreign billionaire last time and look how that worked out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudevillaisnice Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Could be fronted by UK based indviduals with foreign investors involved. I wouldn't worry or put too much emphasis on the "UK based" term. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brommy Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 UK based consortium pretty uninspiring if true And yet if it was an Arab consortium everyone would be excited. Ridiculous to jump to such conclusions based on the nationality of the buyer(s). In fairness, it is also ridiculous to jump to conclusions based on a tabloid newspaper story.

Villan4Life Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Wonder if Nicola Cortese could be behind this consortium? He still lives in the UK and I remember the rumours about him trying to front a consortium to buy an English club, Villa was linked at one point.. I am hoping myself that Usmanov has got bored of Arsenal and turned his attention to us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reporter don't know shite, otherwise he would be bragging by running with an Exclusive by naming the buyers. No premiership football this weekend, Journo got columns to fill, simples!

dudevillaisnice Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 ..Or you know a journalist with quite the reputation such as Neil Moxley might be right. I have no problem with people doubting the story for what it's worth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingman Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 IMO, If we had a full fixture list this weekend this wouldn't have got a mention! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 (edited) There was a story in The Telegraph, the other week when we beat Sunderland and there was plenty of football going on. I think something is going on, but we're hearing many different variations on the story so it's hard to know what to believe.

Kingman Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 (edited) Yeah is obvious to all the footballing world there will be interest, We've been up for sale about a year so every man and his dog knows this. The main thing and the only that we want to know is who to? and not one single journo knows jack shite about the only thing thats worth knowing, so pretty much status quo!
