They are investors looking for return on investment. I'm sure they have done their homework and seen what went wrong for others before.
News suggests they won't throw silly money at it but feel they can fund a tilt at promotion... perhaps they see us as a feeder team for Nice? Didn't the same approach by an Italian owner get Watford comfortable in Prem?
Like others I would prefer us developing players and working for success than paying ridiculous sums to soulless mercenaries.
Jury out for me. 70-30 it would be a good thing.
