Hi folks whilst understanding that our owners MIGHT be well meaning but a lot of rovers fans simply say that they are trying their best. However the Lord Mayor of Bristol is visiting China tomorrow in an attempt to drum up some investment in our area, including 2 billion for an underground system. You can absolutely guarantee that he won’t be looking for potential investors in a sports/ music venue to be tied in with a deal alongside our Jordanian owners who probably haven’t approached him. Separately Tottenham Hotspur have announced that the building of their new stadium will triple in cost to 1 billion. But their chairman who has apparently BOUGHT the cranes doing the work, as opposed to leasing them, so that he can make a later profit has said that funding this project is not a problem as Chinese investors will fund it. See the similarity in the country investing? . Still we are getting a lick of paint eh!

Confirmed online Bristol Post ( no less) that he is going to China tomorrow seeking investors for underground and other city projects. I don’t think Wael is with him! But not sure about Lansdowne!!!

how did the Chinese get so rich? State sponsored credit boom, leveraging real estate. |

Trying to get 2 billion to build an underground metro must be the biggest pipe dream ever! Will just end up with a few extra bus lanes!
On the plus side, seeing as I am currently working on the biggest Metro system currently under construction, would be a nice project to move back home for!
