Usmanov is not a lifelong Arsenal fan,before he started buying shares in Arsenal he was a lifelong Stretford fan
The point is (that you seem to have missed) that there have been things said and accusations about both sides, very few of which can be proven. I've definitely heard somewhere that he said at one point that his family have always supported Arsenal. My whole point is that some people seem to be jumping on the bandwagon for one side or the other but there has been so much misinformation around we simply cant tell what bits are true and which are not. Anyone who says they know which side is telling the truth is quitre frankly lying or mistaken. For example why did the club get the rules changes so they dont have to show Usmanov the full accounts? They must have something to hide, but what and why? The only thing we can be sure of is that there is only one way to tell if we are better off with Kronke or the consortium - the consortium would have to buy the club for us to see the effect they have on it, good or bad. Otherwise we will never truly know, whatever our own convictions and beliefs on the matter.
The consortium is much better . THey are all business orientated . So no problem with overspend . Anyway , the manager get £200 million to buy new players , and £10 million bonus , for making money from players sold . Done deal .
No one knows who this susposed conortium is.The story seems to have gone very quiet over the last week.Personally i think the whole thing is a load of bullshit.
