new investers ??

Thu Nov 08, 2012 2:47 pm

just had a very intresting conversation with a mate who has been hearing rumours of new investors from the middle east joining the city board ? one is supposedly a sultan , wasnt there a sultan at the watford game as guest of honour ?
can anybody shed any light on this as to whether its true or not ?

We are going to get new investment hence the change too red. I think VT believes with more money we can take off, butndoesnt want to risk it on his own. I believe it could be someone close to VT who has looked at clubs in the past (who also all played in red) but we will have to wait and see.

extra investment can only be a good thing for once this is a rumour i hope is true . especially a sultan which would be worth mega money again added to tans and our owners will look very strong financially . they have said in the past there would be investment in the future maybe the time has come to really push the club forward . :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

It would be better if we could attract some sort of investor who knows a little about football, we've already got a billionaire, lets get someone in with contacts in the game!

Exactly. We have no football man running the club, we need to bring in someone that knows the game.

Just found an interview and copied and pasted this,

Question: What is your favourite colour, hobby and car? Besides polo, what other sports do you enjoy?
Answer: My favourite colour is pink. I like turquoise and blue, too. I don't have any particular hobbies but I love cars and boats. I used to go windsurfing and I also water-ski. But now, I prefer scuba diving. And of course, I enjoy driving... and it doesn't matter what the licence plate number is.

His full title is Duli Yang Maha Mulia Sultan Ibrahim Ismail ibni Sultan Iskandar, Sultan and Ruler of the State and Dependencies of Johor Darul Ta'zim.

Here is a picture of him with VT in the City centre before the home match they both attended.

Wow , If your source is correct then this has the potential to be big news.

We also have the possibility of Annis or Carl releasing other news soon (which I'm hoping is good).

This makes the on-field away form less depressing and gives me hope.

Do we not learn?

1) tan is not a billionaire, not even close.

2) investment means loans, why is everyone so desperate to riddle the club with crippling debt?

First of all, that's not close. Are you close to having 200 million?... No

Second of all, it's not 800 mil, as of march it was 751 mil and since then £125m has been wiped off his shares and he's put £30m into us which has not held its value, which currently puts him at £596m.

and you know the investment will be a loan?? mmmm you didnt like annis pretending to be in the know! but you are saying you are in the know if we get new invester they will loan us money!!1 ffs couldnt make it up???

when have I ever said I don't like annis to pretend to be in the know? You are either lying or have confused me with someone else. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt.

As for knowing the investment will be a loan.... You do understand the word investment right? Or are you confusing it with the word charity or gift?


so you dont know you are speculating, thats what it is called when dont know facts!!!!

yes I do know, he wants to invest... That means put money in and then get it back and more.
anyway dont bother replying (roath) as you will have anser as always and i cant be bothered to be on merrygoround with you tonite!! :lol:

you don't want me to reply because I will have an answer.... How bizarre :?

First of all clever clogs a British billion is 1 million million, therefore we are referring to us millions. Which is the currency most countries trade in 'the dollar' mute point but if tan is a billionaire it would be in foreign currency and not ours. In any case 751 millions pounds is a lot of money, loan all of that out at 7% and what's your return?
