Yeah, that's true, was more an example to him also being heavily involved in other sectors which involving high-value assets when you dig deeper into him. I'm not that familiar with Bloomberg Terminal, but not very surprising that HBJ doesn't have a large portfolio on it, considering he is, as our resident Frenchman nicely put it, a bit of an offshore enthusiast as shown in the Paper leaks. Wouldn't be surprised if he has been using a significant amount of shells to hide his name from investments.
There’s no way they can stay on with that. Even with a wee backing from Elliot they wouldn’t be able to change anything going forward and might even struggle to give themselves a dividend.
This.
I thought singing songs and wearing scarfs would scare of the Glazers!
What I mean by bad blood is that a decade later he seems to be able to operate freely inside and outside the country to boost his family wealth instead of being made persona non grata, usually tied to people which previously held significant amount of power but lost it due to abdication. The Emir also entrusts his son Jassim with chairing the biggest Islamic Bank in the country which the State is a significant owner of.
Or even at Liverpool. Honestly, whether the work of 'US-based' or visiting fans, the whole outer edge of the Glazer compound would be littered with molotovs, the air regularly filled with drones, Glazer US offices glassed, at least one pot-shot attempt a year given the US' particular culture, the lot, to say nothing of the incessant protests outside the ground (our protests x 10) and similarly incessant more 'productive' [and actually legal] bombardment of sponsors on social media threatening boycotts and the rest....
The fact is these Glazers obviously hate us supporters after all we have shown nothing but hate to them so fair enough.
You say it as if we’ve been treating them harshly. They’ve run our club horrifically, the hatred is more than warranted.
I very much doubt this will have affected the Qatari bidders in honesty although im sure they will face opposition from pannicking rival clubs like City and Liverpool who will do everything possible to try to stop any Qatari takeover going through.
i think its the UK in general, look whats happening in France at the moment.
Some conspiracy theory is that!
I am of the opinion Jassim isn't a real dude and it's just a state bid using this made up person/face as a front.
We don't know exactly what they are putting up, but the Glazers will only care about the bolded part.
True but the talk of them staying on and taking more investment is surely bollocks now given the numbers released.
I doubt the bid is genuinely private, but this is just bizarre. You genuinely think the Glazers and Raine have colluded to fabricate a fake sheikh to drive up the Ineos bid?? Wow.
Add to buy the other % of shareholders + transfer kitty.
Not at all, I’m saying it as it is, we have rightly hated them they are just reciprocating that hate by systematically destroying our club, taking the money not spending any money on the infrastructure and spending just enough to keep us big enough to get the sponsorship and money in and make them richer when we become poorer.
Nope.
Wow, you left it as long as that?!! F5 is your friend my man.
I needed a pee

It's probably a need to sell at this stage.
Sure, why not? They are pretty brilliant these days so we wouldn't have a clue.
I mean yes, they could but they won’t. Especially if we’re heading down the state backed route, they’ll be lining their pockets with back handers to facilitate. Same for if we were in trouble, there’s always someone making money.
The idea that he's some made up character is ludicrous. Why make up some phantom persona? they don't need to.
