PAI’s Beard in talkSPORT interview

|

PAI Capital have again appeared in the media to explain their hopes of taking over West Ham United.

This time they have chosen to describe their activities on talkSPORT repeating what they told West Ham Way over a week ago that they plan a second bid.

Their chief negotiator Philip Beard was interviewed by Jim White and Simon Jordan as he again pleaded that they want to make the stadium more football friendly following the move from Upton Park.

He didn’t mention any  figures either for buying the club or how much they were going to put into the  squad but added several times they were serious bidders.

Simon Jordan made it clear that he didn’t believe that takeovers were best conducted through the media whilst Beard added that Brentford was an example of what could be achieved!

But he made it clear that should Gold and Sullivan choose not to sell there was nothing they could do!

    Dont want them or the Ferdinands anywhere near the club. Think Ferdinand may have done GSB a favour today. Mouthpiece for a a takeover and try and sell the clubs players. Smart move-mind boggling.!!!!!!!!!! Is that what hed do if the takeover succeeded get the best players to manure. ABSOLUTE JOKE. Like playtime. Neither do you conduct business on radio. !!!!! Now what is the definition of amateur ?Just wondering.

    For me, those PAI(ns) in the #ss and Mr Manure have been SUSSED. If there is an innocent amongst them, I’d put money on it being Anton, taken along for the ride.
    IF it was about ALL about West Ham, this would’ve been conducted at the END of last season…AND behind closed doors.
    I feel sorry for any of our supporters who buy this load of old B****xs, as any group of faceless individuals fronted by that idiot Beard are doomed to fail…and fail spectacularly….at Our Expense.
    I have run out of words for this group of individuals attempting to hijack and corrupt our Best season for years, all in the name of a loud hailer “Publicity” stunt to make money for their investors.
    Sort out the typos first “West Ham FC”…….Yeah right!

    I’ve never been a Gold and Sullivan fan.. but in this case, I’d rather the devil I know. This PAI group has handled themselves terribly in the media. They’re not running a club yet, but still seem absolutely clueless. I’d hate to think how clueless they’d be if they actually ran a club.

    Don’t trust them , sounds like selling our best players to generate income to reinvest . Should be keep the best players & build around them . To coy on actual funds available for players , Ferdinand also wants to sell our best players . I reckon they will loose momentum when the rest of the fans see through it ⚒
