    It sounds like a title of the type of old black and white movie Trev would have watched when he was younger.

    I meant Martin Broughton. Now his net worth is not billionaire status so you have to assume he has backers. Who though?

    The Rickets family are the American owner of the Chicago Cubs. Their net worth is around £4 billion so I reckon they would end up more like the Glazers

    If its American I dont even need to check the net worth.

    They have one agenda.

    Love it. The yanks will say all of the right things to appease the masses, then do exactly what the Glazers have done. Chelsea supremacy officially over. Be a long time before they're winning a CL title, their official annual target is now the race for 4th.

    Interestingly both bids are higher than what RA asked for and higher than what the market values the club to be. No idea then if that means that includes the loan to RA being paid off

    I read that it wasn't happening. I said that anyway; it was a token bid, I think. Nothing really behind it.

    Aye, they'd need them as they only have a net worth of over a £trillion :emoticon-0140-rofl:
