Yup. Definitely a thinly veiled Moshiri thread.

That's what I thought too, but that's for the mods to decide

At this point I think we can remove the words thinly veiled.

After a brief skim, tend to agree. So unless Moshiri has bought another club this afternoon. :locked:

Just a few of points
Chelsea Football Club owe sAbramovich nothing, they increased share capital and share premium accounts so the Fordstam accounts show its investment in CFC at cost. Fordstam owes Abramovich 1.1 bil, but that is different. It is what we weould love to be the position with BHHL and FM.
Didn't make a 47 mil profit on Stones, nearer 40 mil (just under probably) by the time Barnsley and the cost of his new deal taken into account.
Existing options cannot bring BHHL stake to over 73% max.
What are the legal conditions under which BHHL are compromised by owning more than 49.9%? Genuinely intrigued by that claim.

I mentioned something along those lines. What I meant by it was that buying the club's remaining shares are contingent on other things at the club falling into place regarding certain conditions of improvement. And the point being made is that it hardly amounts to a takeover that screams 'game changer'. It's not in the same league as the type of buyouts that our game changers. It screams caution and at best incremental improvement. As said: not so much a revolution as a storm in a teacup in elite club PL terms. Something that gives the impression we can inch forward and grow organically and make the breakthrough. It's just pie in the sky. Competitively speaking we are not going to make a dent in the PL. Hence the thread.
