Ja jeg vil også kalde netop den mission på kun 5 år for umulig.

Amerikanerne er generelt dygtige til det kommercielle som man har set både i Liverpool og United.

I United er man gået fra 55 (2005) til 81,4 (2010) mio pund på den kommcercielle front. Her taler man om det måske bedste brand inden for fodbold og der har man "kun øget" med omkring 25 mio pund.

Jeg tror næppe potentialet er stort nok til at kunne skabe så meget fremgang på den kommercielle front i Roma at man kan nå det erklærede mål. De nye ejere har dog utvivlsomt et netværk de kan gøre brug af og derigennem kan de øge sponsorindtjening. Men ikke i den størrelsesorden.

Det efterlader så stadion og der har Gusten været inde på de faktorer. Selv med nyt stadion er det meget svært at lave store penge på match day i Italien.

Jeg må dog indrømme at jeg er helt vild med udmeldingen selvom den er urealistisk.

Det virker ærligt talt en anelse apparte såfremt ejerne af Liverpool FC, skulle være et seriøst bud på en ny Roma ejer. Man skal i hvert fald nok lige se at få læst op på UEFA´s regler.

Article 3
Integrity of the competition
3.01 To ensure the integrity of the UEFA club competitions, the following criteria apply:
a) no club participating in a UEFA club competition may, either directly or

administration and/or sporting performance of any other club participating in a UEFA club competition, or
iv) have any power whatsoever in the management, administration and/or sporting performance of any other club participating in a UEFA club competition;
b) no one may simultaneously be involved, either directly or indirectly, in any capacity whatsoever in the management, administration and/or sporting
performance of more than one club participating in a UEFA club competition;
c) no individual or legal entity may have control or influence over more than
one club participating in a UEFA club competition, such control or

administrative, management or supervisory body of the club;

3.02 If two or more clubs fail to meet the criteria aimed at ensuring the integrity of the competition, only one of them may be admitted to a UEFA club
competition, in accordance with the following criteria (applicable in
descending order):
a) the club which qualifies on sporting merit for the more prestigious UEFA
club competition (i.e., in descending order: UEFA Champions League and
UEFA Europa League);
b) the club which has the highest priority access by virtue of its performance in its top domestic league championship and as indicated in the 2010/11 access list (Annex Ia);
c) the club which has the best club coefficient ranking as established in
accordance with paragraph 9.02.

Det viker jo ganske klart, faktisk. Hmm.

Jeg er ved at blive ganske nervøs for i aften.

Vuci er halvsyg, JS er nok ude med en fodskade og Borriello er halvskadet. Pizarro og Adri stadig ude.

Hmm, vi skal dog stadig vinde.

Kom nu for helvede.

V4E:
DiBenedetto er ikke ejer af Liverpool. Han spiller en mindre rolle, men mon ikke de har styr på det?

Lehrer, er det goal.com eller sådan noget du bruger? Næppe videre troværdigt. Ifølge italienske medier:
- build a new stadium, minimum 50k seats. It will be based on "all roads lead to Roma" theme
- increase revenue by 30%
- increase ticket sales by 40%
- get us cheerleaders
- replace Kappa with Nike
- ditch Wind and get a better sponsor
- redesigned Roma channel
- new site with loads of info and many languages (5+)
- add stadium tours for foreigners (Asia, north/south America and Europe)
- get Franco Baldini
- replace Conti (or give Conti some other role) and Prade, Montali stays
- improve merchandising, apparently they already contacted some sponsors in China

Det lyder mere realistisk. Og specielt punktet "- get us cheerleaders" er en milesten for enhver spirende storklub.

Goal ? Næh, jeg tror det var Forbes jeg fandt det på. Men jeg har ikke kunnet finde din fine oversigt.

"The U.S. investors aim to more than double Roma´s revenue within five years to 250 million euros and to build a new stadium within eight years, la Repubblica said today."

Ovenstående må være kilden. Det ændrer bare ikke på, at det er dybt urealistisk.

@ Caroe

Det er underordnet hvorvidt det er "en mindre rolle".
Har han en ejer-andel i New England Sports Ventures, og det har han, så kan han ikke samtidig have en ejer-andel i Roma. I hvert fald ikke såfremt begge klubber skal spille i de samme europæiske turneringer.

Det er i øvrigt ganske fornuftigt at UEFA ikke tillader den slags.

A group of investors led by Boston private equity chieftan Thomas DiBenedetto is in exclusive talks with A.S. Roma and is close to an agreement to buy the club.

DiBenedetto himself is leading the negotiations for the club, which has been up for sale since July. The DiBenedetto group has offered about €130 million for the team and his offer was deemed the best of the five received by the club. Another member of the group, Julian Movsesian, told Bloomberg News, “we could be the proud owners in two weeks.”

DiBenedetto is no stranger to European soccer as a partner of New England Sports Ventures, which owns the Boston Red Sox and last year bought English soccer team Liverpool Football Club.

a) no club participating in a UEFA club competition may, either directly or
indirectly:
i) hold or deal in the securities or shares of any other club participating
in a UEFA club competition,

Det er ret klart.
