Radrizzani

[Cjay]

Says a deal is agreed

[Leeds1000]

I don't mind the geezer. Took a chance on the club and got lucky with Bielsa, getting us promoted back up to the promise land but it was definitely boom and bust. I think its clear he doesn't know much about football, just the marketing side of things and he left his lieutenant Orta to run the football. Gambling when the odds are against you will always come back to bite. You win some you lose more.

Deal for Sampdoria has been agreed in principle apparently.

Radz finally gets QSI involved but not with us. . The Leeds way I suppose.

Anyway this is close to done confirmation from Sampdoria statement

The domino effect could happen now.

The domino effect could happen now.

Not necessarily.

If QSI are helping Radz fund Sampdoria he won't need to sell us.

He could easily be another GFH, take years to get rid.

Why couldn't he get QSI for us

Anyway least he has had the decency to tell Sampdoria fans whats going on

[whiteswan]

Sooner he's gone the better....

[JoeDenver]

Wonder if there is some sort of backhand deal that brings Willy Gnonto with him. Brings Willy to Italy and Radz can show demonstrated improvement by bringing him in. Really speculating here, but wouldn’t be shocked by it.

I doubt Radz has any interest in LUFC any more, proven by his absence at games of late, nowhere to be seen at ER on Sunday, it's as if he has left a sinking ship.

The 49'ers will have two set-prices they are prepared to pay for our club, one lucrative payment for us staying up & a less attractive deal for relegation, I have no doubt negotiation discussions are now occurring over the next week or so!

[The Subhuman]

I wouldn't want QSI anywhere near this club.....

[CHAPELALLMAN]

If the club is now worth say £150m then Radz still gets some uplift on what he paid for the club.

He's lost himself a huge amount of money through not selling a year ago, but that's what happens when you speculate and make a poor decision. It's like seeing a share that you bought soar in price, but then you hold on for too long and then watch it plunge in value. You get out finally, but with a far lesser profit than you might have achieved had you timed it right.

The sooner he clears off the better - IMO Risdale has a far higher standing in the history of the club. At least Risdale got some terrific results for a time, not just some flash in the pan 9th place finish in the PL which flattered only to deceive.

Hopefully that's the last Italian owner we will ever see of LUFC.

"Andrea Radrizzani secures Sampdoria purchase. 49ers Enterprises will push now to agree and seal LUFC takeover."- Phil Hay.

Let's hope it is done very quickly, Radrizzani owes us that.

He's buys a relegated club, that have have crippling debts and face a points deduction.
I don't get it but I accept it

He has obviously seen a loophole where he can make a decent profit.

Have to say I'll be watching with great interest!

[MightyWhites]

That's all he's interested in. Don't think Jordan is far off with his opinion!

[JoeDenver]

There are some parallels to Leeds. Big club steeped in history that has fallen on hard times. Radz is simply looking for a distressed opportunity to reinvigorate the club so he can “flip it” in 5-8 years. I still suspect he’s trying to work his way up to a sizable Milan stake.

Done by Friday, according to rumours emanating from the club.

[geronimo]

qsi offered to buy radrizaani out several seasons ago , but he would not give up full control of the club , and only wanted investment similiar to the 49ers , he bit off more than he could chew through sheer greed, and the sooner he slings his hook like his partner in crime orta the better .

[Cjay]

That doesn't read like the statement of a man selling up

If anything it's full of self patting on the back

Ffs

[Hewin]

f**k sake, he's staying ain't he.

[Carrick Dave]

Obviously a potential gain of £300m in 12 months was too big a carrot to ignore.
