And only yesterday I was reading that no one has a sense of humour on BSkyB 😆
A fun, affordable hobby is:
1. Turning up in random well-to-do Cotswold villages wearing a hi-vis vest with a picture of a wind turbine on it, and a hard hat.
2. Taking measurements of the village green and any other open space, and enthusiastically writing notes on a clipboard.

It's the only way they go. Another club legend about to be sold down the river on their watch, to stop them facing scrutiny. The British media helped the Glazers in though, when BSkYB were going to buy us, there was uproar, the Glazers, not a peep. nothing. How they took over isn't even allowed now

Murdoch owns multiple tabloids in the UK, including the largest circulation trash paper, and The Times, which is a trash paper with a formerly good name. He also dominated satellite TV via Sky / BSkyB for a time. Has the ear of Prime Ministers, and we didnt even make him become a citizen to do it.

IIRC there were other potential acquirers, such as AOL Time Warner and even USA Network, which was about to be acquired by Vivendi Universal.
Vivendi head Jean-Marie Messier owned a chunk of Murdoch’s BSkyB, though by 2001 he was looking to sell it off.
