Im starting to doubt this, not when one of your mates gave you your wonga and you spend a big wedge buying into a buisnesss and leave it for over a month without a manager managing the most important part of it

I am wavering a tad mate. One thing I'm still baffled by though is, why hasn't Moshiri bought the rest of the shares that will allow him to take full control, supposedly it's just a case of him taking up the option to buy them.
 

Moshiri everytime.

He's certainly made mistakes but I believe he has ambition for the club, something I've never seen from Kenwright during his long 18 year tenure. The only ambition he seems to have is to keep his beloved Chairman's seat.

Also BK was alleged to have turned away Sheikh Mansour before he bought City.

I don't think we know when the options can be exercised mate ( The esteemed @hibbo'sclass might know otherwise ). They might be exercisable at any time, it might be dependent on milestones being reached on a new stadium, or they might just be exercisable from a particular date. My guess, and that's all it is, would be a combination of two and three

My take on this, fwiw, is that Woods and Kenwright didn't want to sell up in one go because they saw the value of holding onto the remainder of their shares for a few years and influence what was happening at the club. Bill, in particular, would want to be "seen" as a "steward of the club" and making sure a new owner was really the "right person" before handing over full control. Bill likes to portray an image of a benign owner who's only got the best interests of the club at heart, but, while there's some truth in that, I'm pretty sure the reality is a little bit different

Anyway, in reality, Moshiri has full control and, though it would be messy, he could remove Bill from a position of influence at any time ( well, it's take a little while, but effectively any time ) he wanted ... he'd be very reluctant to do that, because it'd be hugely disruptive, but, if he needs it, it's the ace up his sleeve.

Think that was always going to be a problem, Kenwright finding it hard to fully let go of the train set.

From Moshiri's point of view, it probably made sense though.

For all his many faults, Kenwright is seen by most outside the club as having done a decent job. As fans we're more critical, and see his lack of ambition and unwillingness to let go as a problem, but keeping the old boss around while you learn the ropes isn't unusual in the business world, though it doesn't always work.
 
They are not really in opposition. They are a partnership brought together to build a stadium. If they want to sell up, a new stadium is a prerequisite.
 
Heard from an Echo journo (via a friend) that it's Moshi who wants Sam, as he's terrified of losing the money he has spent should we go down.

Kenwright doesn't want him anywhere near the club.

Just think independently and ponder which scenario makes more sense, that it’s Moshiri (who has a penchant for glamourous signings) pushing for an old school football circle type in Allardyce & Kenwright prefers the Portugese manager of a Ukrainian mining town club or is it the other way round?
 
I want BOTH of them out of our club NOW.
Get out, you pair of incompetent onanists.
And take the rest of the board with you.
Walk away now while you still can, runts.
