Exactly the same language was used when Abu Dhabi took over Citeh
"Manchester City Football Club can confirm that there are discussions
ongoing with the Abu Dhabi United Group Investment and Development Limited
with regards to investing in the football club. "
21 days later, the Arabs were incharge

From the language on the officious site it does not look like a takeover to
me but rather an "investment".
Of course I could be wrong.

Since no-one seems to know who the new owners will. be, assuming it does
happen, what do we want ?
Do we want a mega rich owner a la City / Chelsea where he will. plough
millions into the club but we will. be his plaything with Champs league in 3
seasons,
or a rich one who will. invest in the playing side, but in a sustainable
and sensible way, when it will. maybe take 2 seasons to get promoted and
then a few seasons cementing our place in Prem and maybe challenging for
Europe / top 4 in a 5-7 years or so ?
