Sådan går det når man vil så meget, og derfor sælger sin sjæl til højestbydende.
Der har altid været store armbevægelser i AB, og de ligger nu som de har redt.

Kan Bold uddybe hvad mediet mener med, at AB kæmper økonomisk i denne tid? Er der kommet nogle regnskabstal, som underbygger denne melding?

Pinligt at bestyrelsen er så låst på hænder og fødder - ved der sidder personer i den bestyrelse der har/ og stadig brænder for klubben

Lidt ved siden af emnet, her er en beskrivelse af ejerforholdet i AB fra selveste New York Times. Det er ikke hver dag en dansk klub havner dér. Jeg blev overrasket, jeg troede egentligt det var en helt almindelig kapitalfond der stod bag overtagelsen. Og så vil jeg anbefale at blive abonnent på NYT, det er ovenikøbet superbilligt.

Citat/uddrag:

Some people splurge on beach vacations or handbags or bottle service. A year and a half ago, a group of roughly 140 people, many of them New Yorkers, pooled some cash to buy a struggling Danish soccer team called Akademisk Boldklub, also known as A.B. The club plays in an unassuming suburb of Copenhagen called Gladsaxe and only draws a couple hundred fans to its games.

“Buying a soccer club is probably one of the worst investments you can make,” said Andrew Lewner, a group member from East Rockaway. “But no one’s going into this from that perspective.”

They are a far cry from the hedge funders and nation states that own some of the world’s biggest soccer clubs. The group bought the team in 2022 for a sum that barely exceeded seven figures, and its membership includes a literary agent, an accountant, a real estate broker, a photographer, a chocolatier, a tutor, a doctor, journalists, a plumbing supply company owner and a stay-at-home father.

By investing — most put in between $10,000 to $30,000 — these non-billionaires could experience a bargain basement version of the sports ownership dream. They could author a storybook return to prominence for the once proud, now floundering club. And yes, they said, if all goes well, they could make some money.
At the same time, the investors knew little about the team, or Denmark, as they embarked on this project, and from the outset they have faced a series of culture clashes and learning curves. Last year, for instance, as members gathered at an apartment downtown to watch their inaugural game as owners, there was confusion about what to drink.

“I had to Google, ‘What’s a Danish beer?’ ” said Sean Naughton, who lives in the East Village. “Luckily they had Carlsberg at the deli.”

@hvepsen61 og hvis man ikke har ambitioner har man et slunkent pokalskab. Held og lykke med oprykning fra fucking DS (av av)
