U wanna work out what your worry is then mate ?. Either we have no money, or like u say we have billions and also more importantly a very decent skill set to match.

The worry for all of us is the longevity of the club, there are plenty of examples of clubs going from hero to zero.
I line your point and when you think how OGB acts, we buy just the stadium he could effectively charge for parking as we own the stadium not the car parks, so yes the stadium, The Ozone and the Holiday Inn Express should be bought and then they could develop the stadium.
It is yes, how much of that is from the new owners though? Or from previous owners who didn’t have the money to run the club and instead loaded the debt. Even ones who lay out a plan, and make promises to take their debt with them. The truth is even if you achieve on the pitch success u can rarely judge how good their tenure was until they leave, and even then many will purely look at the on pitch situation as a gauge. So while U can be cautious and that applies to any new owner, I think u have to also counter that with a little optimism that maybe this is different.
Why just the cinema? Then he would have issues trying to dell the Ozone if its not the whole Ozone and any new potential owner could make problems with the Vue.That was why I thought he sold it to the Cinema chain now there.
Edit: He did sell the lease to Vue if I've read it right and you were right, he did run it for a couple of years.
Kassam sells Ozone cinema
OXFORD United owner Firoz Kassam has sold his multiplex cinema on land adjoining the football club's stadium to major national operator Vue.
But it is an intresting thought as to why
Who knows?
He has sold the lease to the Vue.
I understand what you're saying, but if it's owned entirely by our far Eastern board then can't see legal/arguments between the owners but that is of course they are for the club and not own the stadium and sell the club
Ah sure if they buy it all.
I gathered that but that to me would be silly if Thohir and Bakri just bought the ground
guilty as charged- sent in on Monday .... whether they get asked or filtered out , remains to be seen/heard though
I agree it some on here I believe are suggesting that the owners should buy the ground and develop it.
Buyinh just the ground is fine but FK could make headway in the car park which could be of a hindrance to Oxford. Just think if we had the Ozone and the Holiday Inn Express as well as the stadium, the income we could raise for OUFC and how benefitial it would be to OUFC.
