adw95 Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 I believe we are being taken over by a consortium consisting of Januzaj, Dale Stephens & Jermaine Defoe. Can Januzaj be part of a takeover bid if we have Cleverley on loan? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jarpie Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 I wouldn't be surprised if the new potential owners would be asian or middle-eastern, but wouldn't rule out americans either due Lerner being one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PieFacE Posted March 14, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted March 14, 2015 Takeover talk is welcome. Wonder what would happen to Fox if the club gets a takeover. I'd like to think he will continue at the club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like to think he will continue at the club. I assume that is why we brought him in - he in himself has become an asset somewhat. Great win followed by almost confirmation that we'll be sold for £150m at the end of the season. Happy days !

Indeed. Fox was drafted in to build a prospectus and outline the vision of the club to potential investors/buyers. TF has way more control than PF ever did, I believe we will be a much transformed club (for the better) when he eventually moves on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For any potential new owner, they'll be able to invest without worrying about "running" the club - which is clearly what Fox is doing at the minute, a great deal more than PF it seems. Randy has taken a back seat (even more so than before), and Fox is the decision maker now (as long as he gets the "sign off"). So what do we think guys, Chinese owners? The NJ Devils owners who were rumoured to be interested in us are buying Palace, so we can write them off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieFacE Posted March 15, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted March 15, 2015 I actually think it's just made up nonsense. The timing of it is very suspect with the Crystal Palace news coming out yesterday too. Think it's someone having a stab in the dark.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also think Man City are now realising they picked the wrong club, What does that last sentence mean? It makes no sense to me. Are you saying that because they've fluffed the champions league and title race this year, the owners picked the wrong club? Because...you know they've picked up the league title twice in the past few years, the first one for 44 years, qualify for the champions league and have a large new stadium that is packed every week because of said owners, right?

They can't even fill the ground for big Champions League games and the atmosphere is flat. They bought a small club with massive potential but I think it will take years to make them the world force they plan on. It would have made more sense to invest in a Club that was already massive but just needed investment. It's just my opinion mate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
islingtonclaret Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 The atmosphere is flat at most of these new stadiums...god I've been to a sell out emirates, and that was 60,000. Arsenal were winning 6-0 against coventry and you could still hear a pin drop. I understand it's your opinion, of course, it's just not one I agree with. What they are doing with the cash is spending it more wisely than you think- these deals with overseas clubs, the money pumped into marketing them worldwide and the groundsroots schemes they have in the north west are cementing their place at the top end of English football. There's a reason that if you pick any sports retailer around the world to shop in, you can now buy a Man City shirt. These oil sheikhs were not in it for the short run.
