Usmanov to sell up?

Post by nut flush gooner »

Surprised this hasn't come up on the forum - unless I have missed it as usual :).

Anyway, yesterday a fans website Arseblog reported that Usmanov was looking to sell his Arsenal shares and join up with Morshiri at Everton. This has been flatly denied today by Usmanov.

If this did happen the thought of Kroenke, having pretty much all the shares in the club fills me with dread. Kroenke could bleed the club dry with pretty much no recourse. Still today, Usmanov has flatly denied the claims.

doesn't bear thinking about, but that said usmanov is not doing anything to break the malaise, sitting quietly and not causing trouble as he should.

likewise his wenger platitudes don't help, but then again I persoanlly believe they are simply said as to not annoy the sheep and retards of the likes of red action, as soon as he comes out against AW the spaz's will be even more anti usmanov, with banners and marches, cue steveo...making a potential takeover even harder.

Must be bullshit.

Why would he buyout his old partner only to sell up a few months later.

Unless he's gaining huge profit

I remember a few years ago he went on a rant criticising DD and it really wound me up - basically I sent him a very angry email letting him know that he was bang out of order and it led to several very abusive e-mails being exchanged between us :lol: :lol:

Naturally I'm not a big fan of his :wink: :barscarf:

I hope the story is bullshit :?

The Uzbek is a shady character, but I shudder to think how much worse things would get at the club if the Syrup got over 90% of the club in his hands. No doubt he'd take it private and pay himself nice little backhanders. Allegedly.
