Well no not quite.. You have to chuckle at the sense of irony though, after years and years and years of mocking Lansdown, "plaything" "sugar daddy" duke of Guernsey" you've now become everything you've previously hated.. and even worse.. you must be devastated? I can definetly see this chant catching on if we ever play each other again
Are you saying that your owner is not foreign domiciled? That'll be news to him and the 90 days he can stay in England per annum... Devastated? Hardly. After Higgs' reign, getting bought by a wealthy Arab family is a dream come true! I think the only ones devastated will be those Teds who've predicted Rovers' imminent administration and bankruptcy throughout the past few years. They must be truly gutted at having mugged themselves off so regularly and so publicly
Wealthy? £70m?? Allah akbar.. everything you ever said about 'wealthy business mans plaything' has just bitten you on your arse.. I bet thats the first time Whale Al Queda has ever set foot in Bristol. and only the second time he ever heard it was Rovers he was buying..
Glad your dream has come true rumoured the Jordans only worth £70m.. that's pocket money for most investors these days.. certainly not money to sell out for.. but there you go.. #sellouts
So much to be jealous of.... Whale Queda this morning..."What do you mean we bought the 'other' Bristol team, You never said there was 2 teams?" "I researched and researched Sir, nothing came up about this ragbag Rovers" "Allah akbar" "How do we get out of this?" "Don't know" "someone has already bombed their ground so we can't do that" "Which way is east? we need to pray"...
£70m? In your dreams! That's just Wael Al Qadi's personal worth. The family is worth billions. The Al Qadi's bought HSBC's Jordanian operation for $1.2 billion. Apparently, we're now the 10th richest club in the country! Keep enjoying those citrus fruits my friends.
So the Bristol Rovers Football Club, also known as the Prats, sorry, Pirates, will now be known as The Jordanaires (oops, already copyright by Elvis backing group). How about they revert to their original name The Black Arabs?
To indulge your inability to use Google: http://www.venture-mag.com/index.ph...uence-lie-in-jordan’s-business-world&Itemid=3 6th family down the list.
i found that site earlier, so where does it say that Wael Al Qadi' personal wealth is £70m on that link? and what is the combined wealth of the family to make you the 10th richest in the country? that link doesn't answer the question.
It doesn't. It simply demonstrates that the Al Qadi's are absolutely minted. I'll try and dig out the 10th richest bit for you OTIB.
You are an individual of excellent taste smh. I was well chuffed when I thought that up so I posted it here and on our board, but no-one picked up on it until now! Thank you!
You will find the same as us wealth means **** all now with FFP. To get to the place we all want to be you need to have 20k regularly raising to 25-30k. Good luck with the new owners, hopefully they will be like Tan or Venkys for you
