Usmanov

Who in their right minds will spend that sort of money without getting a seat on the board or any say in the running and decisions the club takes?

But whose to say they wont get a seat on the board? Kronke, as far as im aware, has only refused Usmanov as they dont get on, if it was someone that shared his vision then its a different story, also, if Usmanov sold it to fans he'd have a hard time saying no to them being on the board

Well i guess that's true. They certainly will want something back from their investment.

Stan called me last night and asked me to front up a business with £300 mill of his readies to buy out Jabba. I'm then going to sell it back to Stan with a tidy £1 mill in the bank for my troubles. Easy money

I'm sure usmanov could have all sorts of clauses go into that sale to stop that, including the right to buy back the shares if the new party wanted to sell them on.

More likely, having sold them and got the fuck out of there, he probably wouldn't want to get dragged back into it though i expect.

No smoke without fire or is he just stirring the pot?

It looks like that one article is now spiralling.

[dunkster]

I think it will forever come out of the woodwork every time he's mentioned  until he's here or one day we suddenly realise it's been ten years and unlikely to happen

Looking at selling Arsenal shares according to Sky Sports News

[eugene]

Be great that but who would want them at £700 million with no say

[Dartfordblue]

Kroenke putting an offer together for the shares, above £525 mil apparently

[Cozzie]

Maybe making more Usmanov threads is the key to getting him here.
