    San Fran 49?ers - Rangers Takeover

    See there is talks happening. Not the greatest timing and just seems it will dilute attention to running Leeds, more conflicts of interest 😀

    Have to agree. Could be very distracting to the running of Leeds.

    Maybe but the 49ers investment company is pretty big and has other investments. Angus K runs most day to day stuff.

    Could actually be benefits to owning multiple clubs from a loan and player development perspective.

    Yeah I can see we will be getting rangers players to bolster our premier league dream not. I think the Americans are going to make Rangers great again.

    Was thinking more about younger players going to Rangers Oz. Brentford have a sister club, City have more than a few, quite a few similar arrangements in Europe.

    They don't work Hope here city have a club that basically doesn't even have one city youth player. Besides Rangers will be big in Scotland while we will be a minority in premiership. The other thing is funds will be divided between the two clubs. Make no mistake 49rs are only in it for business I just hope red bull buy us outright.

    Maybe a big outfit but there?s is always someone who is better at doing one role, which team will get that person?

    Everton apparently making overtures for AK

    If we go up then he will hopefully stay as seem to be some quite exciting commercial related things in the pipeline at Leeds.

    With the 49ers reportedly looking to sell a 10% stake of the NFL franchise valued at around 9 billion dollars, it remains to be seen how this could impact on our ownership.
    If Rangers join the 49ers investment circle then it could accelerate a shift in our ownerships current set up - particulary Red Bull. 😯

    Obviously Rangers guarantee access into European footballs big bucks circus without too much mega spending, unlike the crazy financials required to just stay in the PL, let alone getting into a European placing.
