    It's a no Henry mauriss !!!!

    Forbes produced their yearly report last month on the league table of the world’s richest $billionaires, over 2,000 listed (including Mike Ashley on $3billion – approx £2.3billion). Yet no Henry Mauriss listed, with ‘only’ around £780m

    It would be the funniest moment ever for the fans of other clubs if that happens

    So Mauriss is worth 780m and he's basically going to spend half his net worth on us.

    Either he's a genius with an amazing plan, or he's a complete idiot.

    Saying that John Henry was only worth a billion when he bought Liverpool and he's now worth around 3 billion.

    The only thing that concerns me is he apparently wants to keep Bruce in charge.

    If we have no money and Bruce still here, we might as well keep Ashley.

    only 27 pages to go to the magic 1000...will we get there before the takeover is announced though? That is the million dollar question.

    quote from Saudi journalist

    He said: “Give the Premier League a little credit for working for four months with the buyers and sellers to iron out all the bumps and to find a solution where everyone comes away a winner.”



    This then led to Alwaleed, who is based in Riyadh, stating his confidence that the Premier League would pass the deal.

    Curious as to know why he mentioned the seller. If there are bumps during the fit and proper person test as the seller sits back and does **** all or have I missed something?
