Air Asia Tycoon ...Tony Fernades trying to buy us !!!

[rangerforevereastcote]

when he was trying to buy westham didnt it come out that he didnt have the finances to buy the club and it was nothing more then free publicity? if this guy is "only" worth a couple of hundred million not sure thts good? he must be part of a group otherwise im worried just another publicity stunt

[rangerforevereastcote]

Brilliant post! Alot of people seem to be getting carried away expecting a Man city type ownership, when in reality thats not going to happen!

completely agree

better the devil you know, cos we all know what will happen they will come in invest a bit and then evryone will be on here slaughtering them for lack of ambition and not signing the like s of rooney ronaldo,
portsmouth birmingham liverpool under hicks all talked the talk , horrible feeling if this goes through could be more trouble ahead make t&c look like nice benefactors

hope im wrong

I think there is a bit more to this than first meets the eye.
I think this Fernandes geezer is T&C's 'stalking horse' to try and raise the stakes for the russian steel guy, who in turn used Mittal as bait.

Let me explain.
T&C want to sell, the russian wants to buy.
Russki tells his pal Mittal to put in a bid to see if he can get an asking price out of T&C, he then raises this inital bid, again trying to draw a figure. T&C spot this ruse and now put forward their own guy, who they say is prepared to pay the full asking price of £100m for T&C's shares (not the whole club for £100m as others have said) This is to try and force the Russkis hand when he thinks the deal is going to be snatched away.

Expect the whole thing to take another couple of months and the Russki to buy T&C's shares for around £85m.

All would make sense, but is there any back up to this or just what you think? Not having a dig by the way, just wondering whether you know something I dont with regards the subject?

Blind optimism.

According to the standard minority stake and chairmen, looks like the Mittals have maybe sold

Who? Fernandez? If so lets hope the money for his stake is put into the club rather than Bernie's back pocket.

[Olly]

Do we presume he's been asked to throw some money into the transfer pot?

[MattyRangers]

Im presuming its just poor editing by somebody on Vijay Mallya's Wiki page when it says

"He also was part of the consortium that acquired Queens Park Rangers FC; the consortium also included Bernie Ecclestone, Flavio Briatore and Lakshmi Mittal" ?

I didn think he was ever involved, just rumoured to be?

He's probably bought Gianni's shares.

This Fernadez just sounds like another corrupt spiv ****

Probably in the Paladini mould his involvement sounds like nothing more than an opportunity to lord it in the PL, meet greet, network and strike a few deals. What exactly would this fella bring to the table, he knows **** all about being a chairman of a football club.

Even Norwich fans can see through this

Has he bought in for 51%?

[Terry-Mancini-123]

New owner?

Has Fernades bought or in the process of buying in for 51%?
