    Define Your concept of Richest Alf ....

    if if you are basing it on history - nope
    if you are basing it on culture - nope
    if you are basing it on vibrancy - nope
    if you are basing it on heritage - nope

    sounds like you fell into the Oscar Wilde paradox of knowing the price of everything but the value of nowt

    Not really H.O. Just on the write up seems like they have a bit of money to invest ..

    Hope it goes well for them .. Then again they might be worse than the Venkys ..If that's possible.

    Sure it will be fine, they sound an intelligent bunch, they've hired that guy from that movie who was **** at baseball then **** as a GM then did some good stuff working on a penny pinching budget to sign washed up players based on stats and hope they came good, Moneyball. With stalwarts like that I'm sure you'll have Messi by the FA Cup 3rd Round.

    Ive heard already that the new owners want both Allan Clarke & Norman 'biteyerlegs' Hunter to come in as financial advisors.
    We're going to take a big stick to the likes of Real, Inter, Barca, Psv, Ac, Borussia, Paris, & Chesterfield in the next few years. They have all been warned.

    Indeed it will. Not one for the "lets buy our way to success", but......having owners who are classified as billionaires (how much they might be prepared to commit to Barnsley who knows), might make for interesting times ahead.
