Just a theory.
Red Bull are going to buy us in the summer.
Glasner is their man.
He’s Austrian.
He has links to RB Salzburg.
Red Bull have been linked with buying an English club in the past.
The yanks apparently want out?
Parish has been looking for investment.

I just find it a strange appointment.
He turned down Lyon, has been linked to Dortmund.
Won the Europa league two years ago.
There must have been some promises made to him?

Thoughts?

Well, since Zaha left we have needed strengthening on the wings and Red Bull would give us them.

(sound of me getting my coat)

Red bull gives you wings and hopefully a few wingers

I identify as an ambulance. My pronouns are wee/woo

I like the OP's logic but until Parish confirms that a bid is being considered it is just a theory.

My own theory is that until now Palace have not had any serious bids, Parish has said he gets chancers all the time e.g. Glazier style.

I think the main reason serious bidders are holding back is the asking price and the ground redevelopment cost. Buying the a club now you inherit the risk that the construction costs could spiral out of control HS2 style.

I think once the development is finished and the debt is know there will be plenty of suitors.

What an interesting way to start a Thursday morning.

It's all a bit fanciful but there is something about it that makes me go "Yeah, that makes some sense". For the new stand to go ahead, we need serious financial commitment. The americans seem to want out and Red Bull can't be short of a bob or two......

I would have thought that Glasner would only come to CP if he was assured that there would be money to spend to implement a new era. He just seems to good for us unless....

Why not?

Red Bull make about 10 billion euros p.a. Still owned by the founders families.

My guess would be that our board have given Glasner some sort of nod for close season transfer funds.
Many of us have already speculated on this.
But you never know. RB (red and blue) kind of fits with the Red bull, the Eagle and the Palace. Where better than us to invest a few billion?
