Leicester's owners aren't Chinese

Chinese, Japanese, goodness gracious, what are these?

Hi guys, haven't posted on here in a very long time but just thought I'd pass on a little bit of info. Hollis flew to Shanghai this afternoon on flight BA169 from Heathrow. Flew with two other people. I don't know if it's anything takeover related but I guess it's possible.

Thanks for the info Suits, I won't ask for names but I reckon you already know.

Honestly don't know any names. The only thing I've found out after doing a bit of research this afternoon is that Wanda Group moved their headquarters from Beijing to Shanghai last year

Find out if Ellison is spending any time in Shanghai, could be a smoke screen, you never know

[Trotters]

It has to be takeover related. I can't see us holding off on signing a manager yet doing sponsorship deals, so that's off the table.

The question for me is, is he going to get the deal signed or is he going to try and save the deal?

He wouldn't be going as an introduction. He's admitted were further down the track than that. Negotiations over price would be done via lawyers or phone/video conference once the grounds and facilities have been viewed and the books checked. Especially if two or three parties are involved - Hollis can't be fucking off to China and then the USA (or wherever) every time someone ups their bid by a few dollars.

We could well be down to the nitty gritty here as I can't see Hollis fucking about on a long haul flight for something that can be done over a phone call.

Signed, sealed and delivered or going to apologise for Lerner being a prick?

I work for BA at Heathrow and although I'm home from work now I'm gonna have to call someone at work to try and get hold of the passenger list for the 169 flight, will let you know if I succeed.

Bravo!

Someone find out if Larry is in China. NARLA just pointed out to me that he could probably afford a flight anywhere in the world. I'd just assumed that, being American, he doesn't know where China is.

Will be interesting to know who he went with although it's probably club officials/lawyers.

The fucker has his own pilots license and OWNS 2 military jets. 

Fairly sure if Ellison wants to be somewhere he can get there.

[deadbuzzardalive]

Seems this guy has said a few things on the matter via his twitter, that has got a few people talking given his involvement with Chinese business.

I'd guess he's gone to tie up the deal? Because when you think about it Moxley claims the Chinese folks were at the club all of last week and was at the game too. One would hope the formalities have been settled and this last trip is just to dance the last tango .

@ajarvis8 Can't wait to find out what terms are on the small print on the Aston Villa deal. Doubt it will come off.

[deadbuzzardalive]

Also tweeted

"It will be Interesting to see what Chinese PE firm/s execute on deal & FA who advised such a deal."

with 'PE firm' meaning Private Equity firm.

[Trotters]

So he's close enough to the deal to see the terms, yet talks about it? And doubts it'll come off?

Not sure what to think of this bloke, buying chips for our dinner then pissing all over them.

[4BetLite]

So.. have this takeover with a 10000 ITK's happened yet?

No, but we are in position. Dressed as a weeping willow outside BMH, weeping just incase it all goes tits up. The other super sleuths are disguised as an exercise bike and a sauna after managing to gain access to BMH as pest control experts trying to get rid of cockroaches. Unfortunatley it would seem that some of them will still be playing for us on Sunday as the Fuck off you Cockroach spray does not take proper effect until Monday. 4BetLife has just had Lescotts scrotum rubbed up and down his chin, he is disguised as the exercise bike, poor fucker.
The rest is ongoing.

Fuksake, I thought that was the cleaning lady.............I thought I smelt cabbage.

He came to computers late, in university I believe, and saw their potential. It wasn't a love-affair from his youth like Gates. 

He saw an opening, and grabbed it, built a database for the CIA, almost went bust, then turned Oracle's ODBMS into the 2nd best on the planet closely behind SQL. And those 2 outstrip AWS by miles. 

Ellison the businessman to Lerner the businessman is the same comparison as the SAS to me on my work paint-balling day out

On the same day di matteo went fav?!

[NARLA24]
