That is flimsy even by flimsy standards

Isn't the source Reuters?

The Shields Gazette reckon they've got an exclusive of a Russian billionaire also interested. I'd imagine this is going to be a long 3 months..

If the McVities boy buys the club, I'd be lobbying for Jaffa Cakes to be renamed Rafa Cakes....

I have a feeling we're going to see a s*** load of these stories the Chronic being the worst (as usual) so far.

While they'd be lobbying to rename him Jaffa Benitez, which would be a massive step forward from selling stadium naming rights.

Hmm so Amanda Staveley values us at £300 million, Ashley is slightly interested but wants more so releases a statement about us being for sale to force Staveleys hand in stumping up a little more cash

George Caulkin & Luke Edwards suggesting she's going to bid.

I really like the thought of this Amanda tbf, British (northern), backed by Arab money and pretty easy on the eye. If we were asked to design our ideal owner I doubt we could have came up with much better.

Is it her bidding, or is she just brokering it for someone else? I think she's got some funds under management, but I'm not sure what structure would allow such a investment in a private business.
Who would actually end up calling the shots?

[Fonda Trevanion]

John Wayne could call the shots for all I care just as long as Ashley rides straight outta town on his hoss. C'mon Amanda bring some cash and sex appeal to a bunch of starvies

All reports say it's her investment company and she'd be the face of it.

Tbh she can be the ass of it too.

I don't want to be that guy, but its easy to see why some extreme feminism gets validated when people talk like this soon as an attractive woman is involved.

I apologize for the frivolity

Usually if an investment group buys a company as part of a wider portfolio, it'd have someone on the board and appoint a CEO. But the ultimate fund manager wouldn't run it, they've got the whole portfolio think about
