Surely this should be on rumours?
Exactly. Load of nonsense.
It is NOT a rumour but a serious question to which the more articulate of readers would give some topical thought.
The rest would be find it so difficult to formulate an opinion of ANY meaningful sort !!
As China is awash with football money at the moment, it is NOT beyond the realms of possibility to seek a "sleeping giant" and see it progress ?
For a relatively small investment.
Keep the Faith :scarf:
Yes, but no Chinese investor is interested in Argyle (nor is one likely to read Pasoti among his/her morning business reports) so in summary this thread doesn't offer a great deal than blind and desperate speculation.
Why stop at China? Don't rule out any African, Russian, Middle East, South American or Indian businessman who may be curious about a struggling 4th tier club on the telly.
I think if you were A more seasoned traveler, you might be more in a position to make comments on China and the Chinese. I am from Plymouth, I served with 3 Cdo Brigade, I have lived in Hong Kong and China since 1977, I run a very popular restaurant here in Dongguan, South China, we manufacture our own pies and pasties as well as stock Sandford Orchards Cider and Dartmoor Beers.
Dongguan is the factory giant of the world, I have two regular customers, both owners of shoe factories manufacturing shoes such as Ecco, Clarkes, adidas, and they are multi millionaires, one, at my suggestion, has just purchased a huge property near Plymouth on the edge of Dartmoor, and he plans to retire there in the future.
He comes to us for a full English breakfast every Saturday and Sunday and never stops asking more about Devon, Plymouth and Argyle, he is almost fanatical. One does not have to be a Pasoti reader, word of mouth is more important, and to answer your question who wants to buy a struggling 4th Tier club the answer is "buy low and sell high" Argyle are a classic catch, size of Plymouth, catchment area etc. YOU NEVER KNOW !
