    Worrying times if this loose cannon ends up owning your football club. Painful watch.

    'when are you going to buy Birmingham football club?'

    "I'm about to tell you, let me tell you, I'm going to tell you, but first let me tell you",

    Jesus wept.

    This is someone who tried to buy Bolton and was proven not to have any money. Then tried to stop anyone else buying Bolton. Made a failed attempt to buy Charlton. Had something to do with Watford at one point too I think.

    He obviously sees some money laundering type loop hole in running a football club to be so obsessed/deranged with getting his hands on a club.

    Are him and David Sullivan best mates or something?

    It seems he's the one that guarantees the money.

    Watched this yesterday, absolutely crazy. If he even gets to the fit and proper test, not sure how he can pass it

    Good grief.
    After about one minute of that interview they should have stopped interacting with him and left him to waffle on until his head exploded.

    This is the EFL we're talking about. He'd probably walk it!!! You've only have to look at some of the other people they've allowed to own clubs across the three divisions.

    Good grief! How on earth do you hold a reasonable debate & conversation with such an individual?

    Imagine one of his board (well bored) meetings. You'd have to pencil in a full day and still be none the wiser!

    Could listen to him all day. I just wish he was involved still within the game in some capacity. But the FA, EFL, PL etc wouldn't accept him for obvious reasons. Akin to Cloughie never getting the England job.

    Well Simon Jordan has had the last laugh apparently… Laurence Bassini no where to be seen as Maxi Lopez’s Argentinian consortium look to have sealed a deal…

    character this bassini chap eh? tbf it's quite impressive, how long he can actually talk, without answering a question or giving any relevant information whatsoever. that's quite a skill. you can see the life draining from their faces.

    like @Cunning Stunt I do like to listen to Simon Jordan on some things around sport. I don't always agree with him but that's good and something people on here should learn without going to the x hates y x hates y.

    I make this post because around the time Feb/ March I kept hearing Barnsley fans saying the club owners needed to sell repeated over and over on social media, at Oakwell and even away from a small group of people. I always said to friends who are buying the club because my number one worry about that statement and sack the board rubbish pre-Christmas was we could end up with an LB or him at Oldham or what Bury had .........
