afar Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 I honestly think Shepherd will be trying to raise the finance, he'll have to borrow like hell to get enough, similar to the Manure situation, but I can see him making a play for it, I hope I'm just spouting my usual crap though.

Skirge Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 I am sure there will be plenty offers but will they be enough for Ashley to accept? I doubt it, yeah he put a lot in after he bought the club BUT he has turned into a shit state. Some interested buyers may think he has no choice and might be able to force a better deal out of him but I think he will be happy to own us put no money in and see us go to the dogs. Owning a club won't make you money though, so I hope its a multi billionaire who does get us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he does that tho he's just losing more of his investment and the price he can expect from selling us will go lower and lower. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
indi Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 Why are people expecting/hoping for someone to come in with a "money no object" type attitude, yet at the same time are giving Ashley shit for supposedly pricing the club out of a deal?

Guest Geordiecunny Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 Nothing actually about gates on the Sun site. Am I being dense and is that actually a wind-up?

NG32 Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 Well he may not stump up any of his wedge now but he still has to protect the investment to get his money back. That means keeping us in the prem. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That means keeping us in the prem. The problem though may not be as simple to solve as throwing money at it. The crowd are disenfranchised, the players are disinterested, the club is in turmoil, it's all a recipe for disaster at the moment. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
S.S.R. Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 Apparently the Man City owners wanted us but Ashley wasn't responsive. Cheers pal Clearly the place is a millstone around his neck. He's going to make a fortune when he gets shot of us, and you'd think he'd taken in a homeless person the way he goes on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stu Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 Insider Info: Sampoerna Group (Putra and his son Michael) are in talks with intermediaries about a bid. Amongst their going concerns is the casino and (now) bookmakers Mansion. The son is a keen gambler, but the father has a massive interest in football. Made their fortune selling the family cigarette company out to Phillip Morris for about $5bil, apparently they're willing to put around £400mil into buying the club and improving the playing and coaching staff in the short term.

Assets are taken into account so it shouldn't make much difference. Though hopefully it won't mean his brother will follow him, he probably will and will buy the Spuds, oh the laughs those two will have over an evening game of Premiership Monopoly Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
