SUFC: The Future SUFC up for sale

[Holy Joe]

Rio Ferdinand net worth is 75 million dollars so definitely wealthy enough to buy the club if he was interested. Even more so if part of a consortium..

So two very wealthy guys vying to buy the club if the rumours are true and its a big IF.

We can but hope...

But how much of that is he willing to lose? Crazy as it seems, I'd suggest on his own it's not enough - out of that 75m he'd be mad to put in, and risk losing, more than around 10m - which is imho not enough to run the club for very long

Any Nash involvement would surely involve Robert Sarver.. (a very very wealthy property investor)

I am in agreement with MB above, his is the potential interest I would be most excited about with their experience in sports ownership.

Not forgetting Joe Tsai. A close associate of Nash and worth a cool £8 billion.

Just the healthy $800m net worth behind him.

Jesus Christ what a transfer window this summer would be

Yep, some seriously loaded connections.

Nash is 100% aware that the supporters want him on board. He's seen the messages of support on Social Media I'm told.

Are we all wearing phoenix suns jerseys on Saturday ?

 

[tommy tucker]

Like every blues fan i really hope the Nash conections bare fruits .It is what our bloved club needs right now some good news . mr Martin would get his money we would get rid of him Happy days if true Ilike every shrimper really hope it is .

 

[Mr Browns Ghost]

I’m massively out of the loop here - why would you be excited if it was to be Nash?

Because Dave Nash and the team at bell sports bleed blue and white and are exactly the team we want at the helm

Yes,
but would the Ferdo,s £75 million be enough for the club and the stadium.
I mean he cant spend half his wealth on a footy club.
As in an ideal world that's what I would much prefer.
The owner of the club also being the owner of the ground.

Someone get a banner made for Saturday

 

[Ramsdenblue]

Maybe we can get the big RON OUT banner, and print WE WANT NASH IN on the reverse.
Then we can kill 2 birds with one stone.

RON OUT, NASH IN.
Now that realy would confuse the stewards,
Should they conferscate the banner or not.

It would take a massive commitment unless he just acts as a figure head. Wrexham guys did it. I just don’t see him committing to something like this. I hope I’m wrong

Very good point. It’s a huge responsibility too if you want to do it for the right reasons

 

[Tommy2holes]

I really hope it is Nash and Co.

They have the financial clout to make a real difference

 

[shrimperjon]

Maybe someone with the skills could put together a compilation of the fans home and away and send it to him. Show him what the club means to us, the true potential and love we have as a club and fan base. If he is serious then it can’t do any harm. Seen people tweet this evening sending messages, me included. Let’s show him what it means to us all

 

[Paddypel]

Bring me Steve Nash and his sweet millions! We deserve it!!!

Sorry but $75m is £60m. If Ron demands (hypothetically) £35m for club and completed stadium then that's more than half of Rio's net worth. Even adding Anton's £4m net worth, the price still exceeds half of their joint net worth. Who in their right mind would splash out more than half of their fortune into a hobby/football club and then have to dip even further into what's left over to keep it running until its sustainable ? I know I certainly wouldn't. I feel that to have a club that doesn't change hands every few years we need someone with well over £100/150m net worth.

Agree. I think the ferdies would need a few other pals to join in. They could sustain a lower league team, similar to the Salford gig.

Seems a different level of clout to Nash though. But still would seem a massive improvement on the current incumbent

Don’t think it would be the Ferdinands on their own, certain a few months ago they were mentioned as part of a consortium, thought Simon Cox may also be involved in this although wouldn’t have thought his net worth is huge
