    My condolences to the supporters of Kaiserslautern.

    A bloomberg article from a few days ago seem to suggest a few other names involved as well as ConLee taking a stake of circa 10%.

    Place your bets on where their next purchase will be... I'm going for Poland.

    They keep finding the money to increase their portfolio of clubs but not the cash to pay the Crynes for the purchase of our club.

    Probably can’t do too much damage with just 10%. Seems like an investment rather than all-out moneyball.

    German clubs are owned in the majority by their supporters. Can't imagine they will be a.lowed to take money out of the club.

    Yes they did. I think they knocked Wednesday out on a decent UEFA Cup run. They were seen as a top club back then.

    I want owners that are solely focused on us. Its amazing how they always have money to invest in a new club, but never the ones that they already own.
