I'm dubious myself. They're not planning to plough in loads of money so what do they exactly want in return from their investment ?

People like these aren't interested in anything other than making money. Maybe I'm being judgemental here but what possible interest is Barnsley FC to a Chinese billionaire? To get the success they crave then they need to whack in a wedge of their own money and be willing to lose it.

We don't know enough info as yet but I think Jules makes a great point about the limited success Chinese ownership has brought english clubs.

This possible takeover will split fans opinion. Whichever way it goes we must remember there are no guarantees. For the record I like the way things are being done at present. This Chinese deal will certainly put a new slant on things
