    for those interested here’s a 2013 article on Paul Conway.

    http://www.businessinsider.com/paul-conway-china-hedge-fund-2013-6?IR=T

    Looked to set up a 60 million dollar hedge fund for investment in chinese companies listed in the US.

    I can’t find any details on the particular hedge fund but would love to know if it was established and the results.

    More interesting is some of the work he did in China, and also mentions Mr Lee who was the founder of a budget hotel chain.

    Might interest some folk.

    Conway is the dude you'd rather have on your side, rather than against you.

    I really liked what he had to say, and how he said it. Filled me with confidence.

    Paul "we're not going to do anything crazy" Conway.

    Apart from repeating himself a few times he talked sense though.

    Wikipedia's updated Football Club Owners list makes staggering reading.

    If I've understood it, there are only two clubs in the Championship (QPR, Wolves) with wealthier owners than us after Wednesday. But get this, only Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester City's owners are wealthier than ours in the Prem!

    Sixth richest club in the country?

    The snag of course is that the wealth of the owners is not necessarily the wealth of the club!

    None of the new investors got to where they are by not making money on investments, so I think its going to be very carefully managed
