Everton in middle-east takeover?

[bluesoup]

when you think of the stick we hard started to take over Shinawatra money and is dubious sources and then Chelsea and the Abramovich money I mean fuckin Iran !!!! A pariah state FFS !! Of course ours will still be "dirty oil money" - theirs will be clean - if you disagree their owner will have a cleric stick a fatwah on you. Salman Rushdie will have to send his season ticket back now.

Karma, so when Iran play international political games again, do we sanction Everton. Maybe they will nuke their rivals if they don't win... Oh sorry, provide nuclear energy to their rivals lol

I take it the moral high ground Scouse cunts with that massive chip on their shoulders will now stop going to watch Everton because, as we've been told many times by their fans, once you've been bought out by a billionaire you're no longer a proper football club?!

 

[I'm no cynic but...]

I wonder how this will all pan out in the stands? Iranian owned Everton vs American owned Liverpool. I'm waiting now for North Korea and Syria to enter the fray.

What?... Fans of the same club that was once called "the Bank of England" club, because they were the richest in the country due to a very wealthy 'sugar daddy' owner pumping his own money into them to buy success?!?

Owned by Iranians, who'd have though it

Well they certainly got taken over by a team from the east (end) today.

Everton need a new manager, I don't think RM is making the most out of what is a decent squad. Collapsed at home today to three late(ish) goals

As I understand it the 49. something percent owner was a shareholder at Arsenal which he had to give up to a Russian friend to allow his stake in Everton to take place.
It is fair I think to say that ownership of PL Clubs is already a Global affair so are there any 100 percent English owned Clubs ?

Ashley owns 100% of Newcastle.
