I'm over the moon with this.

The amount of potential investors Moores & Parry have knocked back shows they're intent on getting the right people in, if they're happy with this one then I'm happy.

Has it been comfirmed that they own Liverpool? I can't find an article that says they have bought the club.

I think if DIC are in for this more as a "business venture" rather than a "plaything" then I guess they'll look into how LFC can exploit and/or expand their marketing strategy.

We've been lagging behind Man U for years in that respect and can make the club more self-sufficient.

"Though, just as in football, money does not guarantee success.

Famously, Sheikh Mohammed paid a whopping $10.2m (£5m) in 1983 for Snaafi Dancer, a horse that was not only so slow that he never raced, but at stud he proved infertile as well." bbc.co.uk

They want us to become a global brand and make the consortium a profit. I reckon he'll invest heavily into marketing Liverpool Football Club (there is huge potential) and buying that he'll make a profit and we will generate our own money from our revenue sales. The consortium has it sussed.  :D

Due dilligence allows the interested party to analyse the books and calculate the value of the company and only then they'll sit round the table. Two weeks....? Already done...?  Three months I'd say.

Read today that the Mad Russian has pumped 450 million quid into Chelski. That got me thinking, he only paid a pound for the club plus debt. So most of that mnoney's been spent on players, facilities, more players then more players.

Our A-rab is gonna pay close to the same without Benitez seeing a penny. A stadium we should have been able to finance ourselves plus paying off Moores and the debt. From 450-475 Rafa dont dont nothing.

So......... who's got the bum deal now. At least Chelski are 450 down but the best team in europe.:p

A person or entity can only have a controlling interest in a single football club.

The best team in Europe? and the proof is where? on the lips of the pundits AKA the W@nkBandits who love nothing better than licking Romans ring.

Show me any proof of them bieng the best team in europe and i can direct you towards plenty of teams that have won more than 0 European cups.

How do you figure that one out reg?

Abramoviches personal fortune doesent even come close to the guys wealth. True we probabaly wont go spending vast sums of money like your team has but we dont need to.

You crack me up reg.

Go back to your Chelsea forum knob.head.  :D

And as for bum deals at the end of the day Chelseas money is out of Romans pocket so im sure hes expecting some sort of return ie: European Cup as thats where the big money is.
I remember Peter Kenyon saying they the club would break even by 2008 but i can only see them going more in the red as far as the books are concerned.

It was Ken Bates who famously bought Chelsea for a quid NOT Roman Abramovich

I think you'll find that RA has bought Chelsea for £60m odd, but hasn't put a penny into the club. All he has done is act as collateral for all these big deals which Chelsea have borrowed the money for. This is why they have reported massive losses every year he has been the owner. He is gambling that in the future Chelsea will be a profitable club. This is fair enough so long as teams like us the mancs and arsenal (not to mention Real, Barcelona, AC Milan etc) all stand still. In 5 or 6 years if Chelsea aren't making a profit it's time to start worrying if your a Chelsea fan cause RA might just get tired of his play thing.
