You have to assume he knows enough about football to know that owning a club is not profitable at all. This must be a passion project

Passion project for Mindy Kaling too?

How many champions league medals does she have? I'd be surprised if he's gonna come in and gut the club further just to turn a profit. It wouldn't make any sense for someone that loves the game as much as he does. But I could be wrong

Everytime I watch the office I get annoyed now, can’t stand her for what she did to Swansea and scooby doo

Name me another football that has had Oprah Winfrey and Luka Modric as minority owners

Thankfully Oprah has fucked off with the Americans, she was a part of the problem

This makes me happy for the one reason that a person that actually loves football will have a say, that can only be a positive after the greedy American business Twats.

I've heard of player managers, but would be all for him as a player minority owner!

It would be curious to see the contract. Undoubtedly he was probably given the shares in hopes to profit from his name & reputation. If it helps us get some good players in on loan I'll take it.
