The riches of our Chairman Mr Tony Bloom

[murraymints4brighton]

Now I always thought that along with being a magnificently nice man and fantastic Chairman for our club that Bloom evidentially had a bit of cash to spend.... However upon having a conversation with an executive at the Falmer season ticket presentation I was quite frankly ASTONISHED with the amount he is worth and the funds he possesses. Seriously, we are in a VERY good place

He is our cunning plan, we are going places so get aboard the Gus Bus

You do this so often. I am seriously starting to think you are getting a kick out of it.

Tease!

I think that what amuses most people is the fact that nobody appears to know his wealth as he doesnt shout about it or is ever on Rich Lists, even football ones

 

[Mellotron]

I think it's amusing that some people still refuse to believe that he's a BILLIONAIRE. Come on. He BLATANTLY is.

 

[Don Quixote]

He has 125 million pounds, that is all.

 

[murraymints4brighton]

In the words of the man we spoke to, "He has enough money to pay off Manchester United's debts", Pretty good hey?

 

[cw00]

who was the man you spoke to? the cleaner?!

I would say that is bullshit on the basis of being priced out of the market for a striker. Not saying you are a liar but assuming that must of been a tongue in cheek comment

I expect only Tony and his accountants know how much he is worth exactly. Some people will get a kick out of saying "He has enough money to pay off Manchester United's debts". It is obviously a private matter otherwise Mr Bloom would be a willing participant in various rich lists.

I'd guess that most people who are in those lists don't reveal what they're worth. Some are easier to research than others though.

It's one thing being cash rich it's another trying to run a football club as a viable business.

If that is so it must be after paying for Falmer etc as I wouldnt think that he would have committed that much to the club with only about £15 -£20m to fall back on

 

[gull-able]

I did a bit of digging, not sure what his personal wealth is, but his company Blue Lizard Consulting made a statment of capital to companies house in june last year which valued the companies assets at 150million pounds and 1 penny. This figure could include the football club but i have a feeling it doesnt.

That is true indeed, but how the opinion would change if we did not make it up a league this season

Bit more than me then !

On the basis of what the stadium cost, I'd say that is bullshit too...

Who's opinion? Are you saying you'd turn on Bloom for not getting a striker if we don't go up?

f*** me, what a fan!!

 

[South Yarra Seagull]

judging by the wedge of $50 notes he used to pay for my drinks on Saturday, i'd say he has at least, ooohh, $750?

Selfish! We could have bought a player with that.
