He has a brother called Garibaldi [emoji16]I still have trouble coming to terms with the fact that someone with the name Erick Thohir is not Scandinavian

Apparently Bakrie is also a billionaireAnyone know how much each of these dudes are financially worth? Thohir is obviously minted but the others?
I think the collective worth of one of the tables in the restaurant Saturday was over 10 billion, I think quite a few prem clubs would be envious of that, it now just depends on their plans and outlook for the club to see if we get anything out of their worth.

Mmm my suspicion is that they will make the best returns building a brand new stadium with accompanying leisure facilities..I understand that to be the case, LR.
They also didn't just fly in and jet out again. Another important point.
I know the club (NMcW) is on a one man crusade to get us a new ground but seeing as this was the first visit to The Kassam, I really do hope, that Erick and the others, saw that we have a three sided stadium, that with a bit of TLC, a bit of work, opening up the area above the East Stand, building a 4th stand, filling in corners with whatever is going to make them money, is worth serious consideration of staying put. I just don't see them hanging around for 6 years to see a new stadium built and ready to move in.
Don't under-estimate, that these chaps (and their entourage) have traveled from all around the world to watch little Oxford play Doncaster Rovers. I'm a tad more optimistic than I have been.
I really hope our future is away from grenoble Rd, even with a revamp it's still a pretty soulless place. I hope we somehow move somewhere which is in a location that shows of a bit the city/shire's charm to visiting fans - I love the club but also love the place.I understand that to be the case, LR.

Is that in pounds or Baht ?
If I didn’t know better I’d think that those were the words of a man who’s just taken control of a football club....
Thohir’s Instagram post about the visit.
3rd picture in he appears to be being interviewed by Radio Ox, has this been aired and I’ve just missed it?

Do we know who us on that forum?Not yet. The hour long Fans Forum special on Thursday would be most likely time it will air I would imagine.

A week ago it suggested KR would be answering questions. Has this changed?
I know sweet Felicity Arkwright about Instagram but that pic of Thohir has got almost 59,000 likes !
Talk about increasing the exposure of the club’s brand.
