Tac-tics Posted 7 October, 2009 Author Posted 7 October, 2009 What do you mean? If you mean even gets a sniffet, then no, not at all. http://fourfourtwo.com/lists/richlist200910thefull100.aspx
SaintDonkey Posted 7 October, 2009 Posted 7 October, 2009 Very odd that Markus isn't in there. I wonder whether it's just becuase he's protective about his privacy so doesn't broadcast his worth - and being (semi) Swiss has very discrete bankers! http://fourfourtwo.com/news/england/23107/default.aspx
MongoNeil Posted 7 October, 2009 Posted 7 October, 2009 Shhhh, don't tell anyone about Markus. This is a good thing....
Pancake Posted 7 October, 2009 Posted 7 October, 2009 Maybe he isnt as rich (personally) as we think. Could be all his wealth is in companies.
Polaroid Saint Posted 7 October, 2009 Posted 7 October, 2009 That's odd innit? Maybe we don't count 'cos we're in L1? Who knows? Perhaps Markus doesn't really exist and it's all a dream.
Polaroid Saint Posted 7 October, 2009 Posted 7 October, 2009 Maybe he isnt as rich (personally) as we think. Could be all his wealth is in companies. All the others in the list have their company wealth and assets added together to create their totals. So that's not it...
Tac-tics Posted 7 October, 2009 Author Posted 7 October, 2009 I think the fact he was completely unkown before the takeover and that Saints have slipped under the radar, a combination of the two....
Master Bates Posted 7 October, 2009 Posted 7 October, 2009 What do you mean? Re-read the name you put compared to mine
Scummer Posted 7 October, 2009 Posted 7 October, 2009 I think the fact he was completely unkown before the takeover and that Saints have slipped under the radar, a combination of the two.... Exactly. I don't think the football world really picked up on the significance of our takeover. Was the Notts County person on there?
suspect everyone Posted 7 October, 2009 Posted 7 October, 2009 Sloppy and lazy journalism, that is the only reason he isn't in there.
Colinjb Posted 7 October, 2009 Posted 7 October, 2009 Considering the figure quoted around takeover was a personal wealth of 2.6 Billion he would be in the top 5, above the glazers meaning we are only really shy of Spurs, Man Citeh, Chelsea and QPR for potential wealth. (Of course in terms of footballing results it doesn't work like that, bit still!
Polaroid Saint Posted 7 October, 2009 Posted 7 October, 2009 Exactly. I don't think the football world really picked up on the significance of our takeover. Was the Notts County person on there? No-one knows WHO that is! And - more bizarrely - no-one seems to care!
chrisobee Posted 7 October, 2009 Posted 7 October, 2009 Re-read the name you put compared to mine How pedantic and just by the by Leeds Rhinos will hammer Saints on Saturday !!
Master Bates Posted 7 October, 2009 Posted 7 October, 2009 How pedantic and just by the by Leeds Rhinos will hammer Saints on Saturday !! Saints to win it for Longy
ludgershallsaint Posted 7 October, 2009 Posted 7 October, 2009 No-one knows WHO that is! And - more bizarrely - no-one seems to care! Just an idea; maybe individuals have to be involved for a full year before they get included?
Saint_clark Posted 7 October, 2009 Posted 7 October, 2009 Surely you have to give permission to be included in this list? I am p*ss poor but I still wouldn't want my personal wealth broadcast to the nation.
Miltonaggro Posted 7 October, 2009 Posted 7 October, 2009 Could be worse, they were saying on Sky this morning that the new no-mark owner of Portsmuff (fake sheikh mark II) is completely unknown in business, let alone football. If he does a runner I have it on good authority that Claude Rains or David McCallum will take over, though in a burka instead of bandages (for continuity)...
The9 Posted 7 October, 2009 Posted 7 October, 2009 Very odd that Markus isn't in there. I wonder whether it's just becuase he's protective about his privacy so doesn't broadcast his worth - and being (semi) Swiss has very discrete bankers! http://fourfourtwo.com/news/england/23107/default.aspx I didn't think Swiss banks were any more of a separate entity than anyone else's banks ? They may be more discreet though.
RonManager Posted 7 October, 2009 Posted 7 October, 2009 Sky Sports list used the word 'shareholder' in the title - does this mean they are not including outright owners?
RedFear Posted 7 October, 2009 Posted 7 October, 2009 lol! @ fourfourtwo for thinking they were clever including that qpr guy no one had heard of, but totally ****ing up and forgetting Liebheer
RonManager Posted 7 October, 2009 Posted 7 October, 2009 OMG - Perhaps they're right and it's all a big scam :smt100
Saint_clark Posted 7 October, 2009 Posted 7 October, 2009 OMG - Perhaps they're right and it's all a big scam :smt100 Liebherr is really a robot controlled by Lowe. FACT.
RonManager Posted 7 October, 2009 Posted 7 October, 2009 Liebherr is really a robot controlled by Lowe. FACT. I knew it all along - arse!! When he looked all orange at the first game that's because he was still in undercoat, having been rushed out after the Pinnacle collapse. BTW how is sunny Weymouth these days? - I lived there in the eighties down on the Quay.
Pancake Posted 7 October, 2009 Posted 7 October, 2009 lol! @ fourfourtwo for thinking they were clever including that qpr guy no one had heard of, but totally ****ing up and forgetting Liebheer Which QPR guy no-one had heard of? Mittal, richest man in the UK; the 8th richest person in the world; FT Man of The year '06? or Ecclestone, the man the "owns Formula One"?
Red_No_7 Posted 7 October, 2009 Posted 7 October, 2009 Exactly. I don't think the football world really picked up on the significance of our takeover. Was the Notts County person on there? no but Sven is a re-entry in the top 20 managers, since his time away. Just an idea; maybe individuals have to be involved for a full year before they get included? thats what i thought before noticing the above. Sloppy and lazy journalism, that is the only reason he isn't in there. looks the more likely reason
RedFear Posted 7 October, 2009 Posted 7 October, 2009 Which QPR guy no-one had heard of? Mittal, richest man in the UK; the 8th richest person in the world; FT Man of The year '06? or Ecclestone, the man the "owns Formula One"? Mittal well i really meant being clever and putting him top of the list, perhaps surprising a few people. but then again, how rich people are doesnt exactly excite me so maybe not such a shock i and people i know have never heard of him, even when the qpr takover happened
sotonist Posted 7 October, 2009 Posted 7 October, 2009 Mittal well i really meant being clever and putting him top of the list, perhaps surprising a few people. but then again, how rich people are doesnt exactly excite me so maybe not such a shock i and people i know have never heard of him, even when the qpr takover happened But you had a three hundred page dossier on Abramovic before he bought chelsea.
RedFear Posted 7 October, 2009 Posted 7 October, 2009 But you had a three hundred page dossier on Abramovic before he bought chelsea. obviously not, but i knew all about him about 5 mins after he bought chelsea, which was sort of my point anyhow i have learnt my lesson and will now subscribe to forbes magazine and study the worlds top billionaires like a lot of people i saw that list this morning on sky sports news and wondered where our own billionaire was. and, again, like a lot of people, just put it down to bad research well, thats my 3 posts seems a shame to have wasted them discussing my ignorance of the worlds richest people
Hatch Posted 7 October, 2009 Posted 7 October, 2009 That top 10 would be a good line up for that celebrities in the jungle program. (on ice)
samoakley Posted 7 October, 2009 Posted 7 October, 2009 They didnt have notts countys owner/s either so they must forget about lower league clubs typical **** magazines 442 use to be good now it focuses too much on prem and big time players and clubs from spain italy etc.. last one i brought was about messi back in july and i thought it was awfull.
red&white56 Posted 7 October, 2009 Posted 7 October, 2009 obviously not, but i knew all about him about 5 mins after he bought chelsea, which was sort of my point anyhow i have learnt my lesson and will now subscribe to forbes magazine and study the worlds top billionaires like a lot of people i saw that list this morning on sky sports news and wondered where our own billionaire was. and, again, like a lot of people, just put it down to bad research well, thats my 3 posts seems a shame to have wasted them discussing my ignorance of the worlds richest people It's only a fiver to join and then you can post as many as you like !!!
Elmore Posted 7 October, 2009 Posted 7 October, 2009 Very odd that Markus isn't in there. I wonder whether it's just becuase he's protective about his privacy so doesn't broadcast his worth - and being (semi) Swiss has very discrete bankers! http://fourfourtwo.com/news/england/23107/default.aspx That list is dated 06 Jan 2009. ML took over in July - maybe that's why?
krissyboy31 Posted 7 October, 2009 Posted 7 October, 2009 That list is dated 06 Jan 2009. ML took over in July - maybe that's why? They had the editor from 442 in the SSN studio this morning and asking him about the blue few's new owner and he said that he would have made the list if they were able to find out anything about him and ratify his "wealth".
Delmary Posted 7 October, 2009 Posted 7 October, 2009 That list is dated 06 Jan 2009. ML took over in July - maybe that's why?Your specialised chosen subject? The bleedin obvious:D
Dannyboy_Saint Posted 8 October, 2009 Posted 8 October, 2009 Had a similar rich list in todays sun, again there wasnt any mention of Leibher
SaintRobbie Posted 8 October, 2009 Posted 8 October, 2009 Sloppy and lazy journalism, that is the only reason he isn't in there. I think he's about number 4 or 5 isnt he?
SW11_Saint Posted 8 October, 2009 Posted 8 October, 2009 Generally they lump the whole Liebherr family together - The Times Rich List did anyway (c. £2.1bn from memory).
Andy_Porter Posted 8 October, 2009 Posted 8 October, 2009 There's a top 50 rich list in the Sun today and he's no where to be seen.
sotonjoe Posted 8 October, 2009 Posted 8 October, 2009 There's a top 50 rich list in the Sun today and he's no where to be seen. beat me to it. I think he's under the radar of the lazy journos tbh.
saint_mears Posted 8 October, 2009 Posted 8 October, 2009 The last thing we want is the spotlight of a mega wealthy owner as the price on players and wages increases.
benjii Posted 8 October, 2009 Posted 8 October, 2009 Had a similar rich list in todays sun, again there wasnt any mention of Leibher There's a top 50 rich list in the Sun today and he's no where to be seen. TBH they probably just copied the 442 one or looked at a Wiki page which referenced the 442 one. We are off people's radar at the moment...I don't think we will be in a couple of years though!
