I thought it was a Venture Capitalist off shoot. Might be wrong. It's a development arm of a sports' business. I don't think it is a separate entity. Cavenaugh is not a sports' business guy, and it seems that when the 51% threshold is reached, he will own 26%, and the 49ers, 25%. It seems to me that if you want to invest in sports, you might be wise to get in tow with people who know how to run sports' businesses. We can assume for the moment that Cavenaugh, and the 49ers are on the same page. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't see reliable sources behind the claims and filed it under unreliable. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbh, I am going to wait until announcements are made. we can stop guessing and not only see the makeup of any deal, but their intentions, coming from their own mouths 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is to do with 'dual ownership' rules. These strictures may change if/when LUFC is promoted. You would hope that Cavenaugh retains the controlling interest of the controlling interest, as that would mean the interests of LUFC would not override those of Rangers. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither should we roll out the red carpet until we see positive actions. Due scepticism is IMO required. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have the support got the patience for an approach that tries to build that foundation? A rhetorical question i presume. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not the 49ers enterprises outright, it's a consortium. Cavenagh as the figurehead and controlling stake in partnership with 49ers through Paraag Marathe etc. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
