Romantic 0 Posted February 13, 2010 Just because he''s money bags, doesn''t make him fit or proper though does it? I''ve become so cynical about what would motivate someone to ''invest'' in a footy club. Let''s let the chair and the CEO meke an approach if they see fit before we go back down the route of giving anyone with a Norfolk postcode and a handsome ISA a blowy.

Bethnal Yellow and Green 2,424 Posted February 13, 2010 Fernandes has just launched a F1 team, one of the most expensive things to do in sport and is trying to drum up as much support as possible. If you listen to the interview rather than just read it you can hear he is being a little flippant and jovial. I think he is looking into partnerships between Norwich and Lotus rather than buying into the club himself.He knows he is going to cause some bad blood when he moves Lotus to Malaysia in a couple of years so is trying to build up some good PR now.

And that Sven Goran Eriksson has been trawling Europe looking for investment. Or so they say... perhaps they just "not serious about taking some serious investment" either?

In the interview he says he has never been to Carrow Road then in the next breath says he watched the Hartlepool game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
