If he has bought us for £100m poor old Gao has taken a massive hit in his investment. Oh, and fair play to FT whose ITK credentials are now gold plated. 😎 |  | | |

This is interesting from the SaintsExtra twitter account.
"Sport Republic, a company fronted by former Brentford chief Rasmus Ankersen, & funded by Serbian businessman Dragan Solak, has bought Gao Jisheng’s 80% stake in Southampton"
and....
"London-based investor Henrik Kraft is Rasmus Anksersen’s co-shareholder & director in Sport Republic, & the company’s chairman — he will become chairman of Southampton Football Club & parent company St Mary’s Football Group" | | | |

If the club is to be sold for such a laughably small amount then it's certain that this will only be due to the new owner having take on MASSIVE debts as part of the deal.
But still Nick won't say that the club has been run badly by Gao.... |  |

It appears we might be part of something similar to the red bull model. lets hope we are at the top of the model | |

Great news.
In terms of the new owners, the proof of the pudding will be in the eating but we can be hopeful and having not paid over the odds for their 80%, they should have a little more to invest.
But if Gao is gone, that's good enough for me. Whilst he may have 'done us no harm' (its arguable) we have been treading water at best for all the time he's been in charge. Hopefully he will be able to squeeze in one final home game, so we can give him an appropriate send off. |  |

Eh? Fat Kat has already grabbed all the money she can get her trotters on.
She sold the club her Father bought for £13m for close to a quarter of a billion. | |

Excellent start to the New Year! Semmens said that we were looking for the right people so hopefully once they new owners are in place we can stop treading water and start to progress. I have no idea who these people are but get the impression that they will build a solid foundation for growth rather than just throw money at a vanity project. Looking forward at last! | | | |

Brentford had a similar set up to Red Bull, with strong links with FC Midtyland, a brought in several good players via their links in Denmark

You seem to have odd ideas about corporate ownership; it is normal to buy a company with its assets and debts, and if Kat received 'a quarter of a billion that would suggest a company value of £300+m and she was a lucky woman not greedy to cash in dad's investments. | | | |

She sold 80% of the club her Father bought for c. £13m for near to a quarter of billion to the first person to take up her offer (even though he failed the fit and proper test 1st time around).
She's has already grabbed as much money as she could possibly spend. The only reason she hangs on to the 20% is she thinks it could also be sold for more profit in the future. | |

Yeah, very smart lady. Gao passed test otherwise his deal wouldn't have gone through.
Good news is he's gone. | | | |

On another note - the BBC have shown virtually no interest in our takeover, say compared to the Newcastle take over. Not complaining as I like it when we go under the radar but further proof of BBC's bias towards so called big clubs. | | | |
