Whilst the owners, mainly Sullivan, have said they want to pass the club down to their children (and in the case fo Sullivan I thikn he is already grooming his boys for future roles at the club), they have also said they would welcome outside investors. I think CB holdings or Stramur still hold around 10% an the Dave's have said in the past that they would be willing to sell 20% if an extremely wealthy investor were to come along.

Morning Lardy,
Interesting post and some insight for those of us who live outside the UK.
However, I note you don't post too often on here anymore and from one or, two responses to your post I can see why.
Pity.
It used to be fun to offer an opinion on our great Club, now the Forum is made up of half wits and the only response one gets is to be called a C'nt half the time.
Personally, I am amazed that on one has come in to buy the Club.
Time..............

Our first game of the season is against Chelsea.

Just saying.

Seattle Sounders is also an anagram of Unrelated Tosses

Gold & Sullivan have been adamant that they want to pass the club on to their children, who, as we all know are genuine fans of the club and certainly have it's best interests at heart.

The Seattle model seems happy to have investors with part interests, allowing G & S to retain significant holdings, so yes I can see them admiring that model.

Are G&S attending the game? The theory would have more credence if they are there to meet the Sceptics.

I thought there was going to be a more interesting angle than that. Don't think conspiracy theories are your forte, they need to be much more sensationalistic than this. 2/10

All that, because you think we might have American investors?

Like the sound of your own voice don't you?

I believe Paul ALLEN also owns the Portland TRAILBLAZERS.
