It’s only wishful thinking if it’s an Arab with bottomless pockets or some other sugar daddy that wants to spunk all his cash playing fantasy football.
I really don’t get this fascination with a takeover. It would more likely see us in the hands of a probably an American that would just be looking to make money like the two we currently have.
Apart from Chelsea and Manchester City which other premier league takeovers have really changed the club for the better and not left them at risk? Even Chelsea could be f***ed if the Russian walked away/ has his assets frozen/ gets on the wrong side of Putin.

Leicester

Are you only keen on an owner who wants to make a loss?

The Leicester one, fair play. But for every Leicester there is. Blackburn, Wigan, Birmingham city, Portsmouth, Sunderland, Ipswich etc.
No I’m not only interested in an owner that’s interested in making a loss, although most football clubs make a loss. We have made a small profit the last few seasons due to player sales.
I think though it is probably the other way round. I think you and posters obsessed with seeing the back of Parish want an owner that is not fussed about losing money.
There is no way a club our size can make a profit and sign the players and pay salaries to take us too the next level (whatever that is).

I want an owner who buys CPNP. Builds a 45000 glass replica of the CP. Puts enough cash in to get us into the champions league. We’ve got amazing foundations. It’s called the fans and all of south London. We would become London’s finest. Top academy top ground top team top fans. Amazing 21st century ground. All in would cost about £1 billion. Small change for all these new techno billionaires.

In Steve Parish, we have one owner who cares about our club. That means a lot to me. It isn't simply a business proposition to him. I don't want us to sell our soul to techno billionaires. We're Crystal Palace and if we're going to get to the Champions League, we'll do it the hard way as we always have.
