Hope this doesn’t happen unless it’s to someone who got money to invest and will look after the club. Someone like tan really from the early days and the current days. Hmmm.

Yeah part of our history as they laid there in the urinals. That's how we will all remember them.


Not saying any different just stating a FACT. FFS.

Honestly still believe Mr Tan is the right man, he has made mistakes ( who hasn't) but he really needs football men with him not the f*cking jokers he has at present.
But hey-ho, careful what you wish for really.

But your missing the point Tan wants out and has gone off his toy.
Tan really wants out like yesterday, but he still wants to Much money.

My apologies Annis, thought the Mr Tan wanting to sell was another rumour.
To reword it then, in hindsight Mr Tan COULD have been the right man if he had football people around him.
How's the holiday anyway?

Be careful what you wish for. Tan is the best owner we have had since I have been watching (>1997). If we have a change of ownership lets hope it is for the better.

Cheers, now I might be going too far here but was thinking when so many are saying not Dahlman what if his cunning plan is to have let Mr Tan build a club up then sell it to him at low cost due to his loans thus picking up a cracking deal for his consortium to push on for Premier League?

And yes their are now three different groups all involved now trying to buy Tan out and Dalman is in talks with all
of them.

Plus Dalman himself is trying to put a consortium together.

City owe Dalman £28mill and interest rates are getting higher.



Does anyone have any idea how much would be needed to buy the club now?

Looking to put in a klarna bid? :lol:



On my way to Barclays now :laughing6:

That would worry me big time.

No issues with Tan selling up but I want to be sure my club will still be here in 5 years time and not go back to the boom and bust years we had before Tan.



The Amanda Staveley Newcastle one is good !

They said that about Mike Ashley at Newcastle, he eventually got what he wanted, if he really wants to sell they can negotiate, but he's no mug (financially) and won't give the club away.

True if Bournemouth are worh 120 million woth there tiny stadium we are worth not far off that ,I've seen people saying we are only worth 40 million that's ridiculous, we own our own stadium outright 40millikn won't bu you the club let alone the stadium, Derby for comparison ended up costing North of 80 million

Anyone think it's like selling a 2nd hand car selling a football club? You pay what it's worth according to owner and asset value.... if tan put in 100m he would want that back Ashley did so fyad at Fulham did as well just to name two ? Chelsea
was sold st far above market value because Abramovich was owed two billion and was included in sale! tan will sell at what he believes is fair price to him so doing what every owner as done in football.
