You've got it wrong Ian although it isn't really clear in any of the media pieces.
He sold his Arsenal shares for £200m but I believe he's paid around £40m for his 49% of neverton so a lot of bitters have put 2+2 together and come up with "he's investing £150m in the Club".
Oh and they've somehow come up with the bizarre idea that his sidekick Usmanof (spelling) who just paid him said £200m for his Arsenal shares is now going to sell them to Kroenke so they can take over at woodison.
Ooh, ooh and they're going to build a brand new stadium too.
£40m for 49%, F**k that's not much. how much debt do they have?, not much is my guess as they live hand to mouth.
They're goosed then, he's in it for the TV money sadly, no way will he they pay for a new stadium/ground, that what annoys me about City, got a free state of the art stadium that the tax payer paid for, and Manchester gets the rent.
