[tomd2103]

Lord Rich of Bedlington (wife bought him the title) who sponsored the local football team 'The Bedlington Terriers'

Football man then...

That name rings a bell.  Didn't they have a good FA Cup run a few years ago?

[Archbishop Herbert Cockthrottle]

Can't hang around lads of to the nuclear sub for few drinkie poos with boys.  Don't tell the boss.

I'm cream crackered mind, hoping for a few bits of info from source today.

Take it easy geezers...60% of the time I'm right everytime.

The Owls in Bavaria have taken to flight.
Mrs Farthingay will hang out her washing on Saturday.

Robert Rich, eh? Is he rich enough?

$1.8 billion according to Wicki. So a pauper by Prem standards.

According to forbes he's worth of about $3 billion, which is about £1,7 billion pounds.

Booo! He won't be troubling the FFP overseers.

[Comrade Blitz]

They hysteria over random (rich) American sightings reminds me of my favourite encounter while living in Sutton:

Walked up the road one Friday night for a pizza. The girl behind the counter, hearing my accent said, "Oh! Are you here for the golf?" (The Ryder Cup was on at the Belfry at the time).

I said, "No, I live here."

Her reply was the MOST disappointed "Oh" that I had ever heard in my life.

I wish that I had been quick (and dishonest) enough to respond with something like, "Yeah, I'm Tiger Woods' manager."

Quite right. If he can't stump up a 50 mill fine without whimpering he can fuck right off. Real capitalists only please.

Rob Rich is part of a consortium with Indian businessman Givta Puhr, so there is plenty of money to go round.

That's well worth a yellow card, so LOL.

I was re-laying the paving slabs outside our house yesterday and some idiot passer-by offered me a job building a patio.

Considering the absolute bollocks I was making of the job, I think he must have had a dead body going off at home

So, TheTrees on Villa Talk is saying that the New York law firm plane is still at BHX, but Bob Rich's plane is due to leave today.

I have no idea if he is buying us, or if that's why the law firm are here, but should that turn out to be the case, then it is top sleuthing - and all based on having access to actual facts, rather than hearsay.

I remember he was plane spotting during the Randy takeover and the OGS talks.

I cannot tell if this Rob Rich stuff is a gag/pun or not.  I don't even know if the ITK is real fake ITK or just fake fake ITK anymore.

He is a real person and his plane has been and now flown out of BHX.

Whether he is interested in the Villa or not nobody knows.

Thanks for the post, when is the press conference you posted so confidently about recently, going to start today?

[Des Little]

What's that smell?

[abc123cox]

So our new owner could be Rich. I like the sound of him already, could be a bad guy in a muppets movie.
