Takeover talk

[Atarrier]

Is it actually true that they're involved with George Bush senior and got the contracts to rebuild Iraq? Also that the Carlyle group made a huge profit from 9/11 and had a meeting with the Bin Ladens that morning before leaving the country with them? This was the first info that I found when I searched for them, not a good start

Chuck in the fact that they helped fund Jesus to pay for prostitutes and you've just written yourself a Dan Brown novel

I know lots of people will disagree with me, but I really wish Roman Abramovich had bought us all those years ago. People say we'd have lost our soul, but we already have anyway, so it would be nice to have a load of trophies along the way.

I think that a lot of us, in more honest moments would agree with that.

To be fair, they weren't to know that Osama would later have plans to bomb buildings and have planes flown into them

It was just one example, I'm not judging...

 

[THFCSPURS19]

Apparently the Carlyle Group wee behind the MH370 stuff

Don't believe everything on the Internet guys

 

[jonathanhotspur]

Bear in mind that Osama is very much the black sheep of the family, the rest of them aren't mental.

Why is it that he was living in filth when he came from such a wealthy background?

 

[shelfmonkey]

Carlyle Group? No thanks.

Plenty of VERY unsavoury characters there.

 

[shelfmonkey]

Oh, Carlyle Group are who that maniac American radio show host Alex Jones believes are running world affairs

One of them.
They make shitloads of money from military conflicts.
Wash the shit from your eyes mate!!

 

[mark timms]

if it gets us competing at the top table without a hidden agenda from the new possible owners im hoping they get in the hot seat

 

[Kendall]

Why is it that he was living in filth when he came from such a wealthy background?

Because he was in the mujahideen, making a scene. He wanted you to feel what the boom boom means.

It's like Tupac said "when I die I'm not dead"... He is a martyr, but he wanted you to be a squashed tomato.

 

[VoteMe4Prez]

Crap, I meant to say one of

 

[onthetwo]

Found our new chairman...

Isnt he a Chelsea fan? No thanks

 

[JerryGarcia]

Why is it that he was living in filth when he came from such a wealthy background?

Probably becuase of the years spent on the run from his CIA bosses

Exactly, just like this BS story.

 

[Jimbo78]

Here we go again!!!

How many pages do we need to get to beat the Cain Hoy thread?!

Least its not dull supporting Spurs!!

 

[arunspurs]

Levy & Lewis haggle over sale of every player we sell...in some cases, take couple of years to sell someone.
If the club is up for sale, then they will haggle over the bid to their death.

We aren't't selling for another 20 years. That's being optimistic

 

[MarkyP]

darth vadar could aquire the club and lead us to world dominance in footballing terms whilst using the northumberland park development project as a screen to re-build the death star for all i care..
I just want Spurs to be successful again...

 

[E17yid]

The timing is excellent isn't it.

We're in meltdown, Levy faces pressure to invest etc etc and low and behold there's a fresh takeover bid in the mix. lol

 

[Chris12]

They're not particularly transparent or particularly ethical. They did, at one time, manage the Bin Laden family portfolio I believe.

Maybe they can bring some fight into this club then.........

Boom boom? You mean sex?
