A Las Vegas-led consortium is aiming to complete a takeover of Premier League club Bournemouth by the end of October.

It is believed that Bill Foley, owner of the National Hockey League (NHL) team Las Vegas Golden Knights, is leading the bid.

The consortium has entered a period of exclusivity over the purchase of the club with terms and a price for the purchase already agreed.

How many American owners would that take us up to in the Prem, anybody know?

The biggest threat to top-level football in this country is from the Americanisation of it. Media fannies are still fixated by the anti-Arab money though so it's still a bit under the radar. We've already had Boehly raising the All-Star game so how soon will it be 4 quarters instead of 2 halves so as to get more ad revenue?

If the yanks get enough people in as owners they can make wholesale changes faster can't they> No wonder the new Chelsea owners are making plans as to who plays when and where.

It would mean 9 clubs with significant American ownership.

No, there’s about 3 of us on here who want an allstar game.

It‘s something to do with Chelsea in 1958, but I’ve not worked out how.

We have the best owners in the world FACT
let’s see if they get the same discrimination our owners club and fans have had to put up with
