I don’t think the US shares were £100 mil when they bought them or worth that now. That sounds like the expected value after the main stand is built, so not now. I seem to remember the club value to be over £200 mil after the main stand is built. I thought they bought in with £50 mil for shares and £50 mil for the stand ringfenced. If that has been spent on transfers then it’ll be coming out of annual revenue I’d expect, unless we got a Sheikh come in.

Or did they buy in with £100 plus £50 mil ringfenced?


Painter is correct. The articles are saying a value of £220m. As I recall the Americans paid £40m for a 60% stake. So if they sell their stake for £100m and the incoming party commits a further £150m interest free loan that would get the new stand built and leave some money for players. The devil will be in the detail which will be smoked out.

Yes I know he is. It’s what I said as well. I said they bought in with something like 50 for the shares at the current value and another 50 supposed to be ringfenced to bring the total to their percentage share of what the club is worth when the main stand is finished.

I just wasn’t clear in my first post but was in my second.

IN the short term CPFC should find a way of moving the tv gantry out of the Arthur and sticking it on the roof. That would free up the view from the upper tier meaning fans would get a proper view and maybe even pay a bit more. Or get on with the new stand and move it then.

Interesting, would be great if we got real investment and proper development.

Not sure I believe it to be honest. If we were really on the verge of being bought by owners that had money to invest as that article suggests, wouldn't have thought we would cash in on AWB before any sale.

1. If he wants to leave and has had his head turned you might as well let him go. 2. 50m is an amazing bit of business for a youth player that didn't cost us a penny and has played less than 50 games total for Palace.
AWB is a really good prospect but he is not the finished article and there are other right backs out there that will do a good job. He's a lot easier to replace that Wilf too. Selling him has zero to do with any takeover. If a deal was struck to buy out the yanks tomorrow AWB will still be leaving.

Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance.

Dont know whether its a good move so early in his career, and there's a long road ahead. Maybe he needs to be reminded of what happened to Wilf., and stay put . At his age he doesnt need the money (in my opinion) as he will get much more 3/4/5 years ahead.
MONEY ISNT EVERYTHING IS IT!!!!!
At Palace he is loved by all of us and that should be a spur to stay, and not become a Man U pleb((and grab him cos they've got the lotsofcash mentality)) . Oh I do so h.te that team along with Arsenal/ManC and Chelski

I'm not disputing it's a fantastic offer, but if some uber rich owner came on board with lofty ambitions and the funds to back it up, they would surely say don't sell him as we will not only offer him improved terms, we will convince him to stay with our ambitions and signings.

My point was more, selling a player for a large sum, just before a takeover, seems unlikely. Would you buy a house that you'd looked at and then whilst negotiating the price for the house they sold the back garden? You'd either stop them doing it or knock a chunk off the purchase price.

What we are talking about here is a transfer of assets. We have sold a fairly intangible asset with no balance sheet value and now have £50m in a mixture of cash and debtors which is probably going to be of much more interest to any investor
