    So wait, the Flicks will pretty much have joint ownership with the Sensi’s. BUT will be Flicks be giving us money to spend on players or just to build a stadium. Personally I have had enough of the Sensi’s as they will just rebuild that debt they had and we r going to have the same problems.

    Daniele, if the Flicks do come in we should have plenty of money to bring in some very good players. Obviously not a Messi, Ronaldo, or even Robben, but some solid players like Silva, Amelia, Quags, AND is Spalletti is really desperate maybe Rooney :) (nah thats not possible……or is it).

    We’ve been linked to takeovers from Arabs, Jews and now Germans. Let’s bring them all in to the negotiation table together. Hehe. Seriously how does it matter in the realm of sport and business.

    Tevez…….. I would take him, 25 mill is an alright asking price and might be a bit less. Won’t happen but never say never (he will want to go to a team that offers game time).

    One person who is going to be extremely happy if the takeover happens – Luciano Spaletti.

    The man is an amazing tactician and is doing wonders with our depleted squad. Imagine if he has the money to spend– Boy oh boy !

    This will be a coup if Sensi’s stay the owners and still manage to bring in money. Afterall Rosella isnt a dumb bitch

    I wont be surprised if this trend of selling certain % of the club continues in Serie A after Roma takes the lead.

    I would not mind this takeover as long as we still have a strong basis of Italian players(ideally roman ones at that hehe).

    KJ what stereotypes are you referring to?

    Niko Kranjcar (Portsmouth) also a good prospect.maybe he’s the answer for us on the right side of the midfield..

    Spalletti will def get some quality players. First thing he will def do is sign a quality striker, not this Quags/Floccari/Iaquinta shit. Established players who can score goals maybe like Dzeko, Gomez, etc (especially from the Bundesliga). Then he will buy a mid or winger (im hoping Silva but anyway). Finally he will get a quality back up CB, maybe a Subotic, Agger, etc. Then Amelia. Then some younger players like Arauntovic, Afellay, etc and we should be good. Plus we can sell Perrotta, Baptista, Doni, etc to generate some cash. Im over the top of my head here but anyway.

    I think Chris is in some hole somewhere in the fetal position. He has been strongly against a takeover from a foreign investor. We may not even get him back for the Fiorentina preview and if we do, he might not even address the subject of the potential sale.

    Yeah I forgot about Chris. When ur over 300 mill in debt u have to sell. It has to happen otherwise we will say good bye to Mexes, Motta, Perrotta, and Baptista and no replacements.

    I’m in the fetal possession alright, but more in an attempt to get any sleep possible. It’s been a long few weeks.

    Re: the takeover…ain’t happenin’. Not worth talking about.

    Hey STEFAN incase you have forgotten it was that “scums” father who brought Roma back to being a force in the Serie A, in his era our third Scudetto was won, we finished runners up five times, won two Coppa Italia’s and have done our best in the champions League than we ever have, and done it consistently.
    If Rosella decides to sell the club then thats her choice, dont insult her and her family which has played a big role in getting this club to where it is.
    If you NEED to be apart of a team that wins everything every year then fuck off and support Man U or Barca, REAL ROMA FANS SUPPORT THE TEAM THROUGH THICK AND THIN!!

    Chris, it’s happening. Unicredit, and the society is pushing for this.
    Sensi’s will still keep control, but we get injected with some much needed funds, and a new stadio.

    Please sign the papers.

    Now we can finally go after the 2 or 3 world class players we need, and beef the bench up!!

    Spal deserves this more than anyone, and Totti as well.

    He has been making magic with spit and a shoelace.

    Please get this done!!!!!

    Dhaw,

    I agree with your post 100%.

    The only way for the Italian clubs to keep up financially versus the English clubs, is to get % stakes from very wealthy investors.

    Marcus pls fuck off and go lick rosella pussy, we have no money, instead I guess you want us to sell our prize stars like Mexes and not have a new stadium. My respect is to Franco Sensi not your pal rosella that sees this team struggling and doesn’t do a thing. Yes ofcourse let’s go on buying 2nd hand players and finishing in 4th and never 1st. The cups we won wow coppa italias , that’s amazing , last scudetto 2001. Franco Sensi is a legend but Rosella is scum. Just because I have different point of you and I explain why it’s necessary to sell the club, I am not less of a romanista. Don’t test my Passion for this team, so fuck you.

    Sorry Stefan did i say i was AGAINST the take over? i cant seem to see where i wrote that. The club needs injections, if it get taken over fine, i just think its very harsh and unfair that u are heaping everything on Rosella, she didnt sign baptista, loria and menez did she? she supplyed the 20+mil to do it because she thought the team had to be expanded and players brought in to void the gaps! Rosella didnt make this situation, she inherited it from her father, things wouldnt be different if he was still here.With Mexes, Vucinic, Aquilani NO ONE WILL GO, Mexes to A.C. has been going around for 2-3 seasons now mate, the team has changed very little over the past few seasons, its just u complain there isnt enough money when we spend over 10+ mil for an unproven player like Menez who is inexperienced, goes down every five seconds and is often injured. Our debt isnt that big compared to big clubs like Man U for example, our situation isnt as bad as that as Valencia’s, ours is just speculated about more. We will move to a new stadium regardless, it would be better if we had new owners because we would have more funds but if u read u would know that will are in the planning stages for a new stadium.
    Why is it Rosella’s fault that Aquilani cant stay fit, why is it her fault Juan keeps breaking down, why is it her fault that Mexes keeps getting cards and bands, theres so much she can do but she cant snap her fingures and heal Aquilani or get rid of mexes suspensions. Blaming everything on one person shows what sort of person you are, get over yourself, if u actual read what i wrote u would have understood that our difference in opinion isnt about the take over, its about ur attitude towards the president of the club who is doing a great job
