Don't think Trump did but his heritage was Scottish.

We've been trying to keep that a secret. 😡
When the oil rich slave operators came in and took control of Man city it had a fundamental impact on Lerner's ambitions at Villa park. He realised that the game was up and money required to compete at the highest level was out of his reach. Let's hope the same doesn't happen to NSWE and we go back to square one.
I am struggling to see how this Newcastle takeover can work. Certainly to the levels of dominance city have anyway. When city got took over, there was literally only united & Chelsea that would be deemed unreachable, hence Lerner desire to chase champions league. Now there's about 8 clubs chasing it at least. Then there's the FFP thing, how on earth there going to generate their own funding by a successful brand I don't know because with the greatest of respect they're a big club in Newcastle. They can spend £500 million the next 6 windows but at some point with rules as they are they will have to claw it back. They last point and for me is a significant one that sort of ties in with the 8 clubs now going fir champions league is that Newcastle maybe worth £300 billion but they will still only sign players in the £60- £100 million price bracket and that's being extreme. That's nothing to owners such as ours, Everton so while they might be stinky rich clubs can afford to turn down the offers made for players. See how city have struggled to get kane, spurs and the rest can afford to say no.
Lerner was playing with his family's money, which his family had a say in. He was also fucked by the financial crash and then further hobbled by his divorce. I'd imagine that Man City were a middling concern.
