Hill-Wood worried about Arsenal takeover.

Peter Hill-Wood has admitted he is worried about a foreign investor making offers to the clubs shareholders that are too good to resist.

Hill-Wood said;

"If somebody came and made a really huge bid then you cannot recommend shareholders turn it down because we don't like it."

He has a very good point, nobody can force the shareholders not to sell up if they receive a decent offer, and what makes it all the more worrying is in the current financial climate many people are worrying about their financial stability. Hopefully, bastard foreign investors wont take advantage of this.

The board have also agreed to look to extend the lock down agreement that was made last year to stop any potential takeovers by foreign investors. Hopefully this will deter any potential investors but the story about David Dean leaving Fat and Orange does make you worry that Usmanov is lining up another attempt at taking the club over. But, Hill-Wood has stressed that he wants the club to stay the way it is;

"We want the club to stay in its current ownership and, of course, you have some concern that someone will try to buy the club."

He then went on to say that if the price is right you never know what will happen...

"The directors don't want to sell but we are a public company. It depends on the price."

A letter of warning;
Don't fuck with our club you foreign, blood money obsessed, fat, 3 chinned cunts!

Anyways, in some slightly better news, and i say slightly because someone will get injured soon, Theo and Samir got starts last night. Apparently Theo was one of the only bright sparks in a team that can barely beat a bunch of amateurs that don't even get paid to play football!

Its truly disgusting that a team full of multi,multi-millionaires can turn in shit performances time and time again.

Just to draw your attention to the 'Goon's Games' in the Popular sites + blogs section on the Right hand side. It should work at school and work so you don't have to work :)

Anyways i can't really find another story so please leave a comment and have a nice day Goons.

The probabilty is a take over will happen Peter Hill Wood is just recognizing sometimes money speaks louder than principles who would not take a pay rise for morals. However back to Arsenal. What is a classic knee jerk reaction to no success and blunted spending, money money money. And we as fans will envitably fall into that trap.
