Some roads don't need DANGER signs to make you drive with care.

Chris Turner and his wife on holiday, Kuwait, a man with potential academy in Ibadan, Nigeria ..........

We've had too many bad experiences. I hear foreign investment and I'm thinking money laundering.

It may be racist of me, small-minded  and little-englandish, but I fear new developments like this. It smells of the way to stop being who we are.

Chris Turner went to Kuwait in the summer and Alnassar has something to do with Arsenal and Chelsea and is friends with David Luiz (that's why Luiz follows the club on twitter) what Alnassar is trying to do is turn us into a global brand in Kuwait and i think he's a middleman to find potential investors. Alnassar said on twitter that he was the owner of Chesterfield FC but that was then soon deleted.

Bournemouth are owned by a Russian Billionaire who has never visited the club.

I was asked by a Manchester City fan would I like to see Chesterfield in the Premier League and my response was no. I would rather be a club in L1 or the Championship with stable finances than be in the Premier League spending money we don't have which results in going into Admin like Portsmouth and going bust.

Q8 and Nigeria? - no thought of any corruption there then. Call me cynical but I cant see our team trotting out at half time 0-2 down with their prayer mats. Mind you Cookie spends most Saturday afternoons facing East.
This guy just seems a bit of a dick. If it was somebody from the UK he would have been on Watchdog months ago but you cant imply he is dishonest because that may be racist.
On the other hand if I called him a lying cheating bastard would that just be me expressing an opinion?

He's deleted his twitter, created a new one changed his name and looking at a club in a higher division.

Move him up, on and out ...........

The best clubs in Europe don't try to associate with these rich? fantastists? who promise to transform you. Involvement with the wrong people returned Leeds to where they were pre-Revie, took Portsmouth into Division 2, to join Plymouth who plotted a similar course, bankrupting small businesses along the way ..........

My only worry is that someone somewhere within the club seems to have treated this as a serious proposition, which seems akin to considering opening a bomb-shaped parcel, labelled bomb and covered in handle with care stickers (come on you Travelling Wilburys).
