im not being funny here, just asking the question...what has the americans imput been? i was aware their investment was for infrastructure of the club, and not for transfers etc.
so what have they done? can someone offer some info?

cheers

They're major shareholders on the board of CPFC; that is all. And like all major shareholders they get to have their say. Parish is also a major shareholder, but also gets, what is now, the thick end of £700k a year as CEO. All major decisions would need the agreement of all three, but only Parish is involved in the day-to-day running of the club.

Even though the OP may be a Troll the point is still valid in my book...just WHO is running the club?

I think it's about time the Americans put up...or f*** off.

If (as looks likely) they used they're combined leverage to get rid of FdB, it's for no other reason then try and keep us up...but it's not for their love of the club...its for their 'return'.

Have no doubt that they are currently looking for willing buyers to attain their shares so they can f*** off again with a profit...


I would hate to have you in charge of my INVESTMENTS since you obviously only invest in things that you love. I don't recall anywhere an article stating "The American investors love Crystal Palace so much they don't care if they take a loss" Let's be clear and transparent here, nobody ever wants a oss American or English.

cheers mate. i guess i just dont see what theyre here for (maybe apart from a profit of some kind, if they decide to sell up). i remember thinking at the time, it was a bad decision to get them on board, when i looked up how bad their other sporting ventures are.

If I was...i'd tell you to steer clear of football clubs. Business is ruining sport...the only loss they dont want is a financial one...on the cheap

Could be there's a takeover or desire to sell when someone with the funds makes an offer, and he passes the Parish decency tests. More reason to pull the trigger when prem status is a must in the sale.

Of course...that's my point.

...because we all know profits soar with a losing record...this is clearly not a well thought out arguement on your part.

You're supporting it! I'm saying exactly that...they were the ones that forced Parish's hand because they could see the chances of getting out of their investment going down the pan.


Was it THAT hard to grasp ??
