      It's happening more and more sadly.

      We're cracking on like Moores and Parry's community feel of the 90s while the mancs were going fully commercialised.

      I don't fancy being left behind again and having to play catch up.

      It is happening mate but itā€™s not the money thatā€™s the issue itā€™s the human rights , etc


      Just donā€™t ever want the club to be part of any sportswashing

      Itā€™s a difficult one this for me , on one hand you have the oil money , thatā€™s presuming someone actually wants to spunk a few billion , on the other hand you have the yanks , and I mean this as no slur on any of our American friends on here , but giving  the record of Americans in our game for the most part itā€™s pretty piss poor , the oil money may not be perfect, but given the option of mediocrity for years or cheering our club onto glory , thereā€™s only one winner , As Pete said rival fans hate us anyway may as well give them a proper reason for it , or get left behind again .

      No there arenā€™t many ā€œcleanā€ Billionares but imo there are levels

      But the oil states imo go to a different level.

      City owners we know are Financially cheating and suspect others will

      But the human rights , treatment of LBGTQ , killing of the journalist etc


      And imo they get involved in sports for one reason - to try and get people to ignore what happens in their own country


      If an oil state took over the club - thatā€™s prob the last straw for the sport for me

      I suspect most m/billionaires are guilty of finding one too many tax loopholes, but that's a million miles away from humanitarian violations.

      So between Del Boy and the Dastardly, I'd go for Del Boy.

      Thatā€™s about it summed up

      If someone like Ballmer wants to buy the club then no issues provided he treats the club well - same for any non oil state billionaire or consortium etc - providing they donā€™t lump leveraged debt on the club

      And unfortunately for the fan on the street, I'm not sure how much choice they have in who takes over.

      Demonstrations aside, that is.

      I'll take more oil than a bad curry. Idgaf it's about time we bought who we want when we want and the new owner can give Klopp a war chest. People only care when it's the other side hurting and killing people. The world crying about Qatar and human rights but the same people pay to go Dubai and enjoy the 7* hotels and lavish lifestyles for a week. Who do you think built dubai then bob the builder? No it was the same south asians who are being abused in qatar.

      Bring on DIC and that lallana poster can sit at home and play footy manager on the pc where he can balance the books as much as he likes.

      It's a tough one. If the powers that be don't enforce the rules, do you join the kunts or potentially get left behind? I would rather a professional outfit with a special interest in sports investments that isn't backed by a dodgy government or unlimited oil wealth but is nevertheless willing to support the manager and take more risks. Not every club having success right now is an oil state. I also think the more money that gets spunked by clubs throughout the game the more it pays to be smarter with that money.

      We can lend Salah out to promote Qatar or something, deffo can start earning his contract money. If it isn't already his grid will be plastered all over the middle east and we'll buy M'Bappe, Bellingham, a few other midfielders, Klopp will be buzzing and Pep's head will fall off.

      No more Amercian billionaires please they will only come here to make more money Unless FSG are going to leave a Ā£1billion pot of money to strengthen the club on and off the field that is.  With all the clear and obvious bribery and corruption in Fifa ,Uefa and FA/EPL why should we take on a moral Crusade they usually end in defeat. The notion if spending what you earn is why Moore sold in the first place he knew it would not be enough and it still wont without massive player investment thanks to City and now Newcastle every top player will have a huge premium on them .
      UEFA and the FA had their chance to stop this and did F**k all about it football is doomed in the long run so lets play on a level playing field for a few years at least
