…well they’re here;
I think the worrying thing is when you do see fans of clubs they're involved in with banners and not being happy.
To have two of the clubs they're supposed to be overseeing have their fans visibly protesting against them is a big massive red flag. Why should we think "oh things will be different with us"?
Just doesn't bode well that to me.

I'm not saying it will definitely be terrible. I'm saying the available evidence shows it will probably be terrible. A takeover - to get fans truly on side - needs to provide excitement. This fails the smell test.
I agree that we are dealing with a shortish timeline when assessing the performances of their earlier acquisitions, but there's been no major investment in any of those clubs to date. If a new owner is not going to invest during a honeymoon period, when are they going to do so? They are behaving like classic carpetbaggers - refuse to invest, asset strip, and sell a very lean (hopefully non-emaciated) club at the opportune moment - for them.
As for the status quo, I see it continuing under 777. Like Moshiri, they won't spend money on the playing side.
Hertha Berlin protests today. Relegated last season. 777 owned
Yes and against them at Liege last week
Going well for the Americans isn't it

Sevilla, Hertha and Liege all win today. Things are looking up for Group Everton!
They've just watched today's debacle.
They've tucked tails & legged it.

777 were late paying their near £ 1 million installment for basketball uk. We have had a terrible summer at Leeds,glad all the mercenaries have left. I think we have a better team than last season ,and definitely a better manager. We have joint investors with the 49ers ,it makes you wonder how much money is needed for a football club to now function. I think the Americans are looking at the PL as a Global Phenomenon that will be a licence to print money. Seems like billions are required from the bigger clubs to function successfully now. I know Evertonians are unconvinced about this sale. Count yourselves lucky,you never had Ken Bates ,GFH the only Arabs without money. Cellino a gun runner. Radrizzani the jury is out on him.
In a League thats been awash with money for 25/30yrs...its not nailed on of course, not by a long chalk...
But If one Club is going to go Bankrupt - we all know which one it will be
Inappropriate Language
Mate, we found the most clueless billionaire on the planet! Looks like a rabbit in the headlights. Offended Lukaku (and nearly caused a legal battle) with stupid comments about voodoo, FFS! Left Kenwright in charge. Only used one agent (that cNut, Jia Joorabchian) and had an itchy trigger finger and a cloth ear when it came to appointing managers. To cap it all, the f@cker can't add up... and he's an accountant!!
Seriously, you could hardly imagine a worse owner.
I heard that these are the only ones that didn't run a mile the other way after seeing our books and how badly this team as been run

Arsenal were dire until Kroenke decided to open his pockets.
Villa are spending huge amounts without thought...as are Chelsea who it appears are mandated by the middle east.
RS and United have always had major sponsors and huge incoming revenue streams.
I think the management side would improve but the team needs several hundred million invested before things look rosy.
Will these chaps do that...not whem theyre scrambling for £900k and €4mil for basletball and Genoa.
Liege and Herta fans are now 100% against them.
Doesnt seem to me like American owners know what theyre doing.

Yet Rights&Media prevented MSP so your comment isnt true.
