Yet another club with a lesser standing in the game than Everton closes in on major new investment deal.

£80m for a minor share in Palace yet some people will still claim Kenwright and co are being greedy if they want £200m for ownership of Everton...

Another club who will be moving ahead of us in the financial stakes !!

To be honest I'm struggling to think of any American owners/investors who have seen success at a club. Most invest with a view to taking a lot of money out of the club.

Yeah just like Villa, Fulham, Sunderland..

The article does not state that the new investor is putting £80 million in. It states that the ground redevelopment would cost £80 million and they want to invest £30 million into an academy.

Existing investors would contribute alongside the new investor but the amounts are not stated.

one word; London.

with all due respect to Palace and I love them for obvious reasons, If they weren't in London...

And they're barely in London at that. Selhurst Park is about 10km from my house in central'ish London.

That was my point a while ago. Only man city can you look at with any sort of success, no other team has really progressed to the point where the whole thing is a success. Hell even chelsea for the cups they have won have zero youth investment and no real portfolio in the game

Carpetbaggers the lot of them.

The success we've had has been in spite of the rug wearer not because of him. Yet the twerp still helps himself to a consultancy fee. The word for American owners is hidden in the word consultancy..
