If I'd have posted this time last week head coach Tierry Henry and 2 billionaire owners you'd have said certifiably insane, not imaginative. I did post it. But thought I was having a nice daydream.

That would be more like: EFL: Who's that at Bodymoor Heath? Kilian M'Bappé? You haven't been spending again, I hope? Villa: Who? Oh, HIM. Oh, we bought him AGES ago. And he was really cheap. Can I get you a cup of tea? 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing that won't happen until due diligence is complete. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidcow Posted July 25, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted July 25, 2018 (edited) It's (very mildly) interesting that Sawiris doesn't have ANY other directorships in the UK. I realise his business interests are multi national and based overseas but I would have thought he would have something registered in the UK, even a property investment company for his property portfolio or something. It's nothing to worry about, I am just surprised. Edited July 25, 2018 by sidcow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post villabromsgrove Posted July 25, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted July 25, 2018 I'm late as usual with my browsing, but two private jets flew into BHX this morning both on 1st visits. M-ASRI GLEX is owned by Orascom which is owned by the Sawiris family. N345LC GLF5 is owned by Northeastern Aviation and is a rental from Long Island. just outside Edens' home town. It's not a scoop like 'TheTrees' but it's better late than never. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
