Is there anything they can claim over us?

Of course not, however that won't stop them completely making things up. 

Better support, Richer owner, in their new stadium before we are, more loyal, coming for us, blah blah blah.

  • The accounts show the bank with profits after tax of 24m Jordanian dinars, roughly the same in pounds. That is not a lot for a bank. Our guy owns 4% . A quick Google search puts his holdings worth USD 22m. Say £16m. So not a billionaire. The bank only pays 12m in total salaries so he’s not getting wealth that way. The total net assets of the bank are 250m dinar. The estimated market value per a Google search is 300m dinar. It is a tiny bank.

    I am really struggling to see why our guy is seen as a billionaire. I am delighted he is on board. He appears passionate, he has some money but not substantial amounts.

      I too am airing on the side of caution when it comes to the claimed ‘billions’. I get the impression the BBC and ITV etc are sensationalizing it, as you’d expect. But I do think he has a little more than you’ve suggested… if he seriously does only have what you’ve said, that’s a little worrying.

      That said, I’m incredibly happy with him as a person and think we’ve ‘got a good one’ here. FTG!

    Oh , also had a look at the Tourism company accounts. That company has net assets of £50m , let’s say a market value of £100m. The family owns about 30% . That includes our guys holding of 4 %.

    I should have added to my first post that the family only owns 30% of the bank.

    So I make it that the value of the family’s banking and tourism business is about £130m of which our guy has about £20m

4% of 24 million is 960K, and 4% of 50 million is 2 million,

"I doubt it his family are billionaires and they've bought the club not Wael individually from what I can gather.
DC will strengthen the squad but he won't bring in a player over another player just because he's a name or costs more which I'm glad of.
Any new players need to fit the Darrell Clarke way and I'm happy with that."

That Socrates chap seems like the sort of dunce who no matter how many times you told him how to do something he would still ask "how do I do that?".

So you think his username refers to the ex-Brazilian captain rather than being an ironic nod to this man?

Socrates

Philosopher

Socrates was a classical Greek philosopher credited as one of the founders of Western philosophy. He is an enigmatic figure known chiefly through the accounts of classical writers, especially the writings of his students Plato and Xenophon and the plays of his contemporary Aristophanes. Plato's dialogues are among the most comprehensive accounts of Socrates to survive from antiquity

:cool:

Neither, a nod to a question he once asked. "So, crates, what are they used for?"
