I mean i suppose the promotion will have made them money so provides cash. Fosun can then go back to the Chinese government and say "look how much we got for this making X profit". i dont know if they could knock back some of that profit in tax to China ?

Lichfield Dean Posted June 5, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted June 5, 2018 Seems like trinity sports holdings have had some success in rebranding and fixing teams in minor league baseball. Big step up to fixing Villa though! Quote For overseeing two accomplished teams in strikingly different markets, Trinity Sports Holdingsis the Ballpark Digest Organization of the Year for 2017. “It’s a true honor,” Peter Freund, Principal Owner of Trinity Sports Holdings, said of the award. “I’m very humbled by it, and I’m very appreciative of it.” Link: https://ballparkdigest.com/2017/11/16/2017-organization-of-the-year-trinity-sports-holdings/ Whatever ballpark digest is!
