The Athletic are reporting that the EFL are reviewing £115m takeover of Sheffield United by American businessman Mauriss. He tried to tale over Newcastle but Ashley got fed up with the slow pace of things Bad if this drags on into summer transfer window​

Balls. Does anyone know if Sports Direct will give me a refund on a Dallas Cowboys shirt?

Read more carefully and that's not what the evidence shows

Not quite. If a banker in London trades x amount it doesn't mean he keeps that money does he?! Means he's moved that sort of money about

Yep done more digging and the net worth of Tom Gores is shown as anywhere from $3.6 billion to $6 billion.

How Henry Mauriss has left Mike Ashley mystified

Newcastle United are under the same ownership ahead of the new Premier League campaign

What do the Wednesday fans think of this fella? That's the viewpoint I want.

They will be comparing net worth to Mr Chansiri as we type.

I'm talking about the earlier post at the top of this page that mentioned Tom Gores and then the person saying another one they didn't know anything about.....

 

[SuperBobbyHatton]

I have no idea if this would be a good thing but my gut reaction is I am wary of being owned by an American. I have been wrong many, many times though.

Seems odd that the magpies deal didn’t happen as apparently he took too long to raise the £350m

Not encouraging

Didnt read your all your post


So would you prefer to watch your beloved Sheffield United in your seat at Bramall Lane and accept that we may have short flirtations with the PL but probably spend quite a few years in the Championship or be forced to sit a a majority of home matches out if we were constantly a mid / lower table PL side ?
Hopefully you will never have to make that decision

I'd pay what I would be able to afford. What if we were in Europe and the tickets were £80 a game for example? Would you not go? Its each to their own and there are numerous caveats to it all. But keeping tickets affordable, although commendable, can't be forever.

He has to prove he exists and has some money. So that could be hard.
