Tottenham Takeover Talk

[Bluto Blutarsky]

Think you will find 303 Shirley is a non descript building with circa 10k companies in “it”

Pretty close: Law office...

With 10k “companies” in it. ?

I don't care anymore whom might buy the club. All i hope is we get rid of Levy!

Before I didn't want any country to own us (Qatar etc) but now i just want Levy gone. We hear every transfer window that it's Levy who pull the plug and makes it hard to buy players. We hear every time we get a new manager that Levy promised to back him, still he never does.

I hope someone buy us asap.

Sadly, levy seems a control freak. If it’s levy’s choice he would stay at tottenham for a very long time. Only Joe has the power to end our misery and sell.

Its bullshit. Its like selling your house but saying you expect to carry on kipping in the master bedroom for the foreseeable.

Its not bullshit if you see it from pure investment perspective.
The kind of returns Levy has made for ENIC since 2000 is same or more than a investor would have made on holding Amazon stock since 2000.

Do the new owners wants to win trophies ? Are they ok to spend whats needed to win PL ? We dont know that yet. For now, Spurs is great cash flow business giving them brand identity. It really comes down to priorities of the new owner.

 

[Archibald&Crooks]

Every set of new owners always start with fighting talk about how ambitious they are. Moshiri, Venkys...remember how Newcastle welcomed Mike Ashley with open arms because he wasn't Freddy Shepherd.

A sizeable chunk, if not a majority of our fan base wanted Redknapp out, then we got AVB. A majority wanted AVB out, we got Sherwood. A lot wanted Pochettino out, we got Mourinho. Practically everyone wanted Mourinho out, we got Nuno. The grass isn't always greener and whilst I want to see some sort of "change" at the club, this kind of thing makes me nervous as there are many many scenarios in which new owners are a lot worse for us than ENIC.

The grass is sometimes greener

Yup - the Office of the Registrar General is literally across the street. These guys just serve as registered agents for corporations and make sure everything is filed on time.

 

[Tonio]

Jesus Sami Mokbel?? comes along and declares what he thinks (guesses) Joe Lewis wants to sell the club for and you all drink it up like its old Joe himself serving up the news. If Sami Mokbel told you Chicken Licken had knocked on his door warning that the sky had fallen, god only knows how some of you would take the news.

Not sure how you can blame ‘some’ of the fans wanting a specific manger out and the owner who is causing all the issues in the first place replacing said manager with a bad replacement as “the grass isn’t always greener” surely in those cases the grass would maybe be greener because we’d potentially have an owner who has more of a plan and football strategy than going from bad fit manager to another bad fit manager etc ?‍

I wonder how much it would cost on top of buying the club and its debt, to take this squad and end up winning the PL.

Bear in mind wages as well as transfer fees have to be paid, and "we" would be competing with nation-state-owned clubs with the same ambitions and effectively limitless resources, I can't see less than £1bn would do it. At least. On top of buying the club.

So realistically we're talking about an investment of no less than £5bn over a a very short space of time.

They need to be simultaneously serious and bonkers!

I'm optimistic!

The sky is falling??? Quick run!!

OK so if protesting against ENIC outside 303 Shirley St is a bit boring can always go down to the beach and have a bacon sandwich

It would be funny if we got new owners and the first thing they did was build a cheese room

 

[npearl4spurs]

So I'm not supposed to do that?

 

[-Afri-Coy-]

All I want is some new owners with around £300-500 million of dodgy money they need to clean through transfers. Is that too much to ask for?

Yea you just never know. You can make educated guesses. Ex. Boehly had a history of spending big with the LA Dodgers, so you could guess he wouldn't be afraid to spend with Chelsea.

With Najafi you just don't know. His ownership stake with the Phoenix NBA team isn't large enough to glean anything from. He was one of the leaders in pushing out the former majority owner when some stuff was made public about the owner's transgressions, but as far as money goes there's no window into his willingness to spend.

It can't be any worse than Enic's.

So... The BBC now saying:

Tottenham's owners have no intention of selling the club and are committed to their long-term plans.

But with no quotes... The plot thickens.
