This comes from a couple of sources now and all I can do is pass on on good faith that which I believe to have worth. The second source is new to me - a poster of in excess 5000 comments on the Spurs forum GloryGlory who goes by the name of 'Solaar'.
The name in the frame then is Mr. John Fredriksen.
In a nutshell, 114th on the Forbes List. Shipping magnate extraorinaire. Estimated net worth $8 Billion.
To make an immeadiate football comparison of gelt girth for you, Roman Abrmaovich's etimated net worth is $23.5 Billion.
Of course there are many issues here and non more pressing than - does this genetic hybrid of Sir Patrick Moore, Jack Nicklaus with just a dash of Ron Atkinson billionaire - have any daughters?
Yes. Twins Catherine and Cecile, 24.




Well if Mr Freidriksen would like to bank roll I'm game especially if it means his lovely daughters become regular fixtures at The Lane! Fnar Fnar!
How does such an ugly old bugger spawn such lovely girls? A question asked of myself once or twice. If that's the missus in one of the pics that would explain it.
8 billion is not enough? Blimey if he spent 10% of that in the first year we would be dancing in the streets.
Bring him in. He could employ his twins in pubic service.
Forget $8 billion... We either get a buyer like the group that purchased Man City or stay as we are!!
He looks like a rubber face being operated by someone's fingers! The girl on the right I have to break it to you.. is a mid-op trannie!
"...shaved her legs and then he was a she.." as Lou Reed would say.
I'll take his money though, but then I am a whore.
Do da do, do do do do do...
Lovely daughters?
3rd picture down they look like extras on Star Trek

So you'd refuse to Klingon then.
*fetches coat*
despite what the movies will have you believe, it is incredibly unlikely that you can convince two twin sisters to rub each other off. Certainly not in live on the jumbrtron
dont get your hopes up, is my advice.
ps. he is norwegian and actually knows his football.
He looks like Bobby Robson squeezing one out!!!
He looks like Ernest Borgnine, that guy who was in Baseketball

They dont look the same but are twins?
Yes got it - the answer is in the adams apple on the right and big hands like my uncle dave
With all that cash though i might just chuck one out at her.
My uncle dave is skint by the way
Mr Fredriksen is a mean mean business man interested in one thing and one thing only. Making money. So noooo thank you.

Not having a dig at all, but who would want in then?
I think Brewsters Millions was just a film!

That is very true Harry, any business men or consortium taking over would of course be intersted in making money but hopefully whoever takes over (and I am sure someone will soon)they will look at our club as a long time investment and getting into cl is the most important thing to do. Rethinking what I said in my previous post Mr Fredriksen could actually be a good man to be owned by IF he was serious enogh and wanted the best for the club.

That's the spirit.
the comments on that third link are worth the price of admission alone.
got mixed emotions about another change, levys put up plenty of dosh and got us nowhere yet but he his a spurs fan so maybe we should just try and get some continuity going, be patient and hope it all comes together. sometimes it is better the devil you know, more changes cant be good for us right now.

Fair comment. I think as ever, balabnce is the key. None of us would object to a lot of the day to day nonsenses of THFC if we could see some progress to CL footy.
So if there were a brutally unforgiving hand at the helm with access to pots of.... hang on... what did I write there?

no thanks, not nearly rich enough.
114th?
dont bother unless you are top 40.
we are perenial premiership strugglers going down the plughole. We need much much more than 8billion.
