Takeover?

Not Pompey:

A member of a ruling family in the United Arab Emirates has bought a majority stake in a Premier Legue club, the official Emirates News Agency has reported. The agency did not name the club but said that Sheikh Ahmed bin Saqr al-Qassimi has bought 60% of it, adding that details would be announced at a press conference this week.


The report was greeted with scepticism among figures with experience of Premier League takeovers. The agency said that Sheikh Ahmed, a member of the family which rules Ras al-Khaimah – one of the UAE's seven emirates – will be the club's *honorary chairman.


The prospective new owner of Portsmouth, Sulaiman Al Fahim, is from the UAE but sources close him last night strongly denied any involvement.

Here's hoping it's the next step.

This is madness.

Just looked at Sittard on the map mate, it's in a funny little out-pouch of the country isn't it?!

Yes it is, situated directly to the German border. It's the place where I found out I was a chosen one though. For that fact alone it is a great place. No need to get me started on that other club I love so much.(y)

It seems strange to me...which is why no-one has been bought IMO.

And what's will all the secrecy? Announcements to be made in a few days? Now...we do keep things really quiet to the last minute on most things.

And if it was the RS I'm sure because they're a massive world reknowned club someone will have put their house on it and reported it was the RS straight away I think.
