TokyoT Posted August 2, 2006 Share Posted August 2, 2006 (edited) Wouldn't it be funny if all the EPL teams ended up being owned by American Football team owners? It would , but I doubt there's a Yank football team owner that could afford Chelski. Don't know about that - the team in question at this stage appears to be Aston Villa BTW - The Yankees are a basball team, not a football team - but thier owner does have a bit of cash to toss around.

PREM-R Posted August 2, 2006 Share Posted August 2, 2006 Wouldn’t it be funny if all the EPL teams ended up being owned by American Football team owners? It would , but I doubt there's a Yank football team owner that could afford Chelski. I dont know about that. Jerry Jones who owns the Dallas Cowboys has quite a bit of money. Jerral Jones 61 , self made Source: football, oil Net Worth: $1 bil Country of citizenship: United States Residence: Dallas, TX, United States Industry: Oil/Gas Marital Status: married , 3 children University of Arkansas, Master of Science Bought pro football's Dallas Cowboys and stadium 14 years ago with $140 million in oil money. Good investment: "America's team" now worth $851 million. Also has holdings in gas, oil, real estate, which he claims Forbes perennially underestimates: "In my mind, those assets are as valuable as the team." Won battle with NFL brass last year to manufacture and sell Cowboys merchandise. Says it was profitable after just 1 year. Hired headstrong coach Bill Parcells this year, but plays down any chance of clashing egos. "Bill is a very positive asset." Roman Abramovic is listed by Forbes Magazine as the richest Russian, 2nd richest person in Britain and the 11th richest person in the world with an estimated fortune of $18.2 billion.

TokyoT Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 Aston Villa announces American takeover – Another billionaire NFL owner is set to take over and English soccer club. http://msn.foxsports.com/soccer/story/5871490 Oh the horror, now the Americans own two clubs (Aston Villa, Man U) and the Russians own two clubs (Chelsea, Portsmouth). Four down, sixteen more to go – maybe they’ll end up with eight American owned, and eight Russian owned clubs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
