What seems to be lacking is the newspapers etc. insinuating/alleging/accusing of Xia of not being legitimate actually confronting him in person about the issues they are raising. Not unusual for newspapers.
One of the problems I have these days with the internet is who is a reputable source with the clout to investigate and get the facts and who is just a blogger with an opinion. Even the most reputable of newspapers come up short a lot of the time these days, mostly due to wanting to get a story out quickly, however weak in content.
One could argue, having read the daily telegraph report article, that the media have donevtheir best to investigate and having found nothing (perhaps due to Chinese language) they put a spin on things .
I mean can the current owner be as foolish as to have gone this far with a prospective New owner who doesn't have the certifiable credential to run a football club. I think quite a few of us here think maybe he can after the ultimate balls Lerner has made in last 5 years however I still feel that avfc and Hollis and Lerner would nt just fell to any old buyer
. I think they have done a bit of research and would suggest it's a bit of a campaign and agenda by some media . I mean the other day there was an encouraging article on the guardian. The thing is there may have been exaggeration and mistruths but then there may not have been and unfortunately the media themselves do that all the time. Also I think there may be annoyance by some media they know Jack all about things and then have to eithe5 going super hyperbole or very negative for the gossip and news
We can only see it time but if it's the case the potential new owner is not up to it then that's a pretty awful busines move and it's unbelievable.
However if it's case it's fine and things just need to be ironed out the media need a good look at themselves. The telegraph article man be informative but lest we forget this is the paper that claimed Nicola sturgeon snp was secretly backing David Cameron during 2015 election. This was a false claim . They were censored by press complaints commission.
. Ultimately it's down to the prem and football league people to see if Dr Tony is up to it. I m not sure about what agenda and investigative journalism is with media these days and who it looks to benefit. So for me it's a watching brief.
