IMHO Lewis would sell to anyone if they offered more money . Look at his charge sheet he is no Mother TeresaMaybe it’s just me over thinking it but can you really see a Club with such Jewish roots doing a deal with Saudi investors?

Not sure why they would want him to stay on and be involved with the football side , let him manage the new hotels and look after the business aspectBut he will still be an idiot where football is concerned, he has proven many times he is incapable of learning from mistakes . Just cos he has a bigger budget with other peoples money will not give him greater understanding of the on field needs . If he does stay on hopefully it’s to top up the oil in the go karts

Ange always gets a decent buyer for his club in his second season
The excitement and anticipation would be fucking awesome. After the staleness and drudgery of recent years the whole fan base would be united and bouncing together.The first summer transfer window will be fun with Qatari investors.
Qatar and Saudi are obviously not the same country. But they share the same issues with Judaism.Maybe it’s just me over thinking it but can you really see a Club with such Jewish roots doing a deal with Saudi investors?

And just imagine the fear and trepidation coursing through the veins of gooners and chavs everywhere .....
Oh God....I can't handle this
I honestly don't think it makes the slightest bit of difference. We're not a Jewish club. We're an English club with a strong Jewish following.Maybe it’s just me over thinking it but can you really see a Club with such Jewish roots doing a deal with Saudi investors?
I know. I'm not. I'm not expecting anything to happen and it's clearly all timed to dampen any enthusiasm for a protest.
What Dividends???Surely the point being made is that if Levy continues in his role, why would increased revenues mean a change in M.O?
There is nothing to suggest he would do anything different I.e. continue to maximise dividends for shareholders with the soccer side of the business still run on a tight budget for salaries, recruitment policy etc.
Shareholders don't get dividends. I haven't had any anyway.Surely the point being made is that if Levy continues in his role, why would increased revenues mean a change in M.O?

Not sure the issues are with Judaism itself but rather the state of Israel.Qatar and Saudi are obviously not the same country. But they share the same issues with Judaism.
On paper it should be a no go. But we are in the age of ultra capitalism so stuff like religion will not stop a deal if there is money to be made.
The sole reason I can see that new owners would keep Levy is for “continuity”.Removing the whole moral discussion in regards to Qatari/oil money. It would on paper be interesting to see if Levy becomes more ambitious without Lewis or not. Because I assume that at least some of the focus on financial stability also comes from above Daniel.
The other question is if the new (I assume part)owners will put more football people at board level to compliment the business people that Levy has surrounded himself with.
