JH Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 How can a billionaire group not afford £350m and need help from a debt-financing group? This is all so weird. Probably because Ashley has demanded the money upfront. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr.Spaceman Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 So we could (but likely not) be owned by the Japanese, Yanks and the Arabs. That would be awkward. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottishMagpie Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 Utter bullshit. What new owners in their right mind would want to do a deal so close to new season?!! Or, in complete cuckoo land they may really really want us and be working on having deal lined up for January Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minhosa Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 Yeah. Fuck this shit. Not worth the time, effort or hope tbh. I’m writing it off. We’re a basket case tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ToonArmy1892 Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 They can f*** off. Have zero confidence that they would have been any good for the club.

Stifler Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 Would it not just be one of those financing deal that companies do where they borrow money instead of tapping into their own assets, not because they need too but because it works out better for them?

Toonjam88 Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 It was written by some daft city financial expert who probably lives in London and supports Manchester United because all his other prawn sandwich prick friends support them. Also Craig Hope was getting pelters this week due to that Shelvey, Darlow story due to him never actually getting any exclusive toon news anymore just hear say and tittle tattle so they have made up some bullshit story to make themselves look knowledgeable.

Yorkie Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 In these depths of despair I'm dabbling with the idea of clinging onto hope, against all better judgement, and just going from one potential takeover to the next, convincing myself there's a chance. A bit like how Guy Pearce's character finds a way to exist in Memento. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanji Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 Fortress' co founder and Chairman of the Board is the majority shareholder of Aston Villa. Would assume that you'd get financing on improvements to balance sheet assets (training ground, stadium, etc) or even to fund transfers via credit facility (up front). Very much could just be leveraged way of using PL income up front which I'm certain most clubs not in the top 5-6 do. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Gonzo Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 Let’s just call bullshit on this. It’s taken up much of my summer and am sick of it. Reeks of another Ashley PR move so they don’t have to spend money on that Brazilian. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

spinner99 Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 Just a thought hopefully not giggs but I wonder whether a no deal hoving into view has had an effect on the takeover(s)? In the event of no deal the pound will likely tank maybe 10-15% which is not a small number on 350 million and a nice saving if you just wait a few months. No deal wasn't really on when this supposedly started in February? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
