In some instances, we invest through joint-ventures with other real estate development partners.

Here we go then.

Am I missing something? Why would an investment banker/fund manager want to run our club?

Does this mean our current(old) owners have just raised more money from an investment firm - So there hasn't really been a takeover at all ??
Smoke and mirrors !!!

Quote from: "Batch"
Portuguese holding companies, Jim Little, Rufus Brevett. Confused? You will be.

To answer Batch's question and putting the pieces together.

It looks like the "takeover" is a consortium composed of an investment company with an interest in property development, presumably to run the business side, a Portuguese investment vehicle to feed trialists on the playing side - possibly the Castro brothers - and Diamandis and Wills stay onboard and keep their fingers in the pie.

Oh I can't wait.

And I wonder what St Modwen's take is on all this? Have they been bought out as well?

[Edit] Or perhaps they are a "real estate development partner"?

"Bullshit investment" springs to mind. Surprisingly this is all shady as fuck.

And also presumably why the "deal" was concluded in London then.

The conduct of the key players involved in this transaction is disgusting.  Complete disregard for the supporters of the club.  Drip feeding information as & when it suits them.  We deserve so much better than this.

I am just going to wait and see what happens before deciding that the new investors are the anti-christ in disguise. This section should be renamed the" Bored" section. The club are not at liberty to discuse their business on an internet forum for fucks sake.

Interesting comment from the Cork City chairman when Jim Little got involved with Cork

"It has been a long few months of negotiations but I am happy now to be able to welcome Jim on board. I understand that people may have become frustrated with the lack of news but due to the process involved it was important to do everything correctly.”

Sound familiar?
