DIC

[Tosh]

Ok, so we missed out on the world's 5th richest man

 

Let's just say his nose is so out of joint that he wants to have DIC invest in another Premiership club.

 

Who would be the likely candidates and what do you think it'd take to break into the "top 4" (assuming he doesn't go after Arsenal). For example, would throwing £100m at Newcastle do it?

Newcastle have already tried the mega money thing, they briefly broke in when Robson was manager.

 

If any big investor took them on, first thing they would need to do is persuade one of the top managers in Europe to take 'em on. Maybe they could just throw the money at Maurenho, he may need a new job soon and he seems motivated by millions more than anything

No. They'll always be stupid.

On Sunday I read they were looking at Arsenal, on Monday I read that they won't be approaching any other football clubs in the UK.

So the're after Man U.

Maktoum is involved with the mob that were looking to buy Newcastle (Belgravia) so it will be interesting to see if they are linked to any other clubs in the coming weeks months...
