OFFICIAL - Tony Bloom Chairman, Dick Knight Life President.

[Lord Bracknell]

"Bloom currently holds a 75% shareholding in the club, having converted £18 million of loan stock into shares; the club's board of directors has unanimously elected him as chairman with immediate effect".

Whatever happened to "No one individual will ever control this football club"?

 

[getreal1]

Excellent - let's hope that he can kick start a new and successful era, like another very successful jew boy who was the chairman during our best period.

 

[Whitterz]

Exactly what Superwife and I were just discussing, I trust there will be a statement at some point

 

[Mendoza]

was just drifting off to bedcwatching Slumdog Millionaire and my phone went mental!!

Still have to remember the Blooms connection with the Bellotti era, though the money is rather good.

We are now supporters of the League One Chelsea who all opposition fans hate because if the financial punch that will lead them to GLORY

Bring on the plastic fans!!!!!!!

 

[Norman Potting]

Looks like one wealthy true fan is retiring gracefully in favour of another even wealthier true fan and I think we should all be grateful.

As has been pointed out on many occassions, no Dick Knight, probably no Albion (or one playing in the County League) so I think we should all be forever in his debt whatever we think may or may not have been done wrong over the last 13 years.

Is one person controlling different to one person FINANCING the club?

 

[pornomagboy]

[Deleted member 2719]

It brings me no joy to hear this but i suppose better late than never.

Onwards and upwards.

 

[Da Man Clay]

Anyone else a little concerned by this? It's obvious TB is minted, that said we've now got one man in control of the club again which was apparently never going to happen. I'm just concerned that we're going to do a Southampton/Leeds/Gretna and end up overspending on over-paid players and unservicable debts should for any reason Bloom disappears. On the surface its fantastic news, but I still feel just a little concerned by it all. Someone reassure me that i'm worrying about nowt!
