777 Partners - Revised Poll Added 07/05/2024

[Mr Happy]

No mate. QIA were former investors with me. So is KIA, the Kuwait Investment Fund, ADIA, and Mubadala, among there’s.

But I work with family groups in Asia today. Above $10bn AUM.

A lot of them are second generation kids trying to take over Dad’s business. Smart, studied in the UK or the US.

I kid you not. A lot of money trying to get out of China these days. Especially trying to invest in Europe where relationships are warm. A UK football club will be a nice marquee investment.

And when PRC reclaim Taiwan in next 2-4 years, then what. Would be Usmanov Mk2 but on a more catastrophic scale.

No disrespect intended mate, but I'm calling BS on your assertions. If you manage portfolios in those sorts of numbers, Deloite come to you.

 

[lljh23]

No problem. I don’t manage their assets. Just that I worked with them or that they were my clients in my job. It may be odd to say given how much assets they are managing, but after dealing and working with them for so many years, they become personal friends are just but a one call or email away.

To be frank the institutions can move less nimbly than the family groups do. I would say if the equity amount that needs to be raised to discuss this transaction is in the ballpark of $500mm, it is something very possible indeed.

Of course do the proper KYC. But these folks have assets all across the UK

Deloitte wouldn’t call me because this is a consortium that I am thinking of putting together consisting of various groups that aren’t existing as an a combined entity on paper yet. What they will do is call the sovereign funds like a checklist (QIA, Temasek, Japan Life..)

Am saying not for BS, sure I can try to find my way around Deloitte for a chat. The point is, there are seriously a lot of good folks that can look into this deal for real. Much more than a debt laden fund manager like 777 in all sorts of trouble.

Never let our club go like that. It’s another downward spiral for the next 5 years. I already had enough the last few seasons.

And when PRC reclaim Taiwan in next 2-4 years, then what. Would be Usmanov Mk2 but on a more catastrophic scale.

No disrespect intended mate, but I'm calling BS on your assertions. If you manage portfolios in those sorts of numbers, Deloite come to you.

@Bungle works for Deloitte. Probably best to send him a private message.

Thank you mate. I dropped him a message.

 

[MikeH72]

Thank you mate. I dropped him a message.

You must follow the link he sends you back.

 

[lljh23]

You must follow the link he sends you back.

I hope it’s not one that transfers $1mm into his HSBC personal account

 

[Blue peter]

We have been prostituting ourselves around for 12-24 months trying to find a buyer, anyone interested has had plenty of time to come forward. Also I would guess any wealthy group would know how to contact Deloitte rather than ask on a fans forum?

We’re like that drunk bird lurching from fella to fella in the Grafton at 2am hoping for a bit of ‘girth’ while everyone else is already fixed up

 

[mahermi1]

Are three words that completely sum up this utter nonsense rumour

"Alan Nixon story" are three more, has he ever got anything right..

 

[nsno-chris]

Does anyone know to get in touch with Deloitte re: this? I work with a number of Asian billionaire groups and we might be interested to look at this transaction as a consortium.

This is fantastic news. I really hope you can help because I have this order from AliExpress, any chance you could chase this up as well mate?

 

[Martin Alvito]

I hope it’s not one that transfers $1mm into his HSBC personal account

You have $1mm to transfer into his personal account? Good on you.

 

[Neiler]

This is old news. They were asked to do this in 2022 and had zero interest. I know guys who had insight into it and mentioned it here back then.

The proposed changes in PSR I think changes the land scape in terms of investment and ability to impact mate.

Not saying the headline is true, but I think the sovereign investors may look at investing in PL clubs more differently than they did before.

 

[Moderatelywarmwater]

Even if Moshiri eventually sells to them, they won’t pay him. One of the part owners at Liege was promised payment in instalments, guess what? 777 didn’t pay up

 

[Exeter_Gently]

Thank you mate. I dropped him a message.

Imagine the seeds of a takeover where planted in the 777 thread of GOT...be quite the story and then some.

Just to add though....the Chinese are absolutely useless in every facet of football they've ever been involved in.

Would laugh my balls off if this happened to be fair.

I’ll update here if I do eventually start discussing with Deloitte. Non-confidential information only of course.

Yeah but this time they are up against Russian gangsters, not paying Moshiri/Usmanov is only going to end one way for Wander and Co.
