Idle speculation - thoughts

[stevenqoz]

This might be something you are familiar with in the UK but I'd like to hear your thoughts. Two weeks back I visited WHL after 16 years away in oz. I also got to see the new Arsenal ground with a cousin who is a shareholder and season ticket holder there. I asked him if he thought David Dein would be going back there in some capacity. He told me that he thought that there was a good chance that Dein would be more likely to be leading a takeover at Tottenham!
My cousin is a personal friend of Dein's but what he said surprised me. Has anyone heard this before?

No.

He is supposed to be a big mate of Levy's, though.

Not 100% sure but isn't Alan Sugar's daughter married to DD's son or summat like that ?

 

[AllSeeingEye]

David Dein's son, Darren, is married to Sara, daughter of David Buchler, ex-executive vice chairman of Tottenham Hotspur.

It's just so incestuous.

Dein doesn't have anything like the money needed, so maybe it would be with that attractive 'businessman' coughmurderousfeudaloligarchcough Usmanov. Fantastic.

How do they all know each other though?

Yiddisher brotherhood

There was a recent incident when Levy and Dein were dining at WHL the day we played Arsenal at home.

Dein is a cast-iron yiddo of the religious not footballing nature, so it wouldn't require a massive conversion to bring him to WHL. Don't see it happening though.

 

[Ironskull]

Maybe he could bring AW with him

It paid off for Chelsea.

Proably all went to the Jewish Free School.

Buchler, Dein... are those Jewish names? I don't know, but it seems to sound right. Rich people also tend to meet rich people, to avoid throwing up on plebs not in uniform or whyever.
