West Ham Super Fans tear into PAI Capital after they apparently launch second takeover bid
This is part of a regular series from our panel of West Ham United Super Fans. Each week, our Super Fans will deliver their verdicts on the biggest talking points and news stories around the London Stadium. You can join in the discussion on our West Ham Zone Facebook page.
West Ham Super Fans have flocked to a post on the West Ham Zone Facebook page about PAI Capital apparently making a second takeover bid.
A spokesperson from the company told the Sunday Times that they had submitted a second offer to buy the Hammers as they continue in their efforts to acquire the Irons from David Gold and David Sullivan.
However, these Super Fans clearly aren’t fans of PAI Capital and revealed their thoughts on the matter.
PAI Capital not getting fans onside.
You would have thought that given how unpopular Gold and Sullivan are with almost all Irons fans, the thought of any new owners would appeal.
However, PAI Capital have somehow managed to turn our Super Fans against them.
The consortium has not been private with anything they have done and have tried to put as much public pressure on Gold and Sullivan as possible.
However, they look to have made a few mistakes, which have clearly contributed to our Super Fans turning against them.
First of all, they decided to bring Rio Ferdinand on board, who is not liked by many Irons fans [Anton Ferdinand’s Twitter account].
Then Nasib Piriyev insulted Hammers fans by claiming they couldn’t fill Upton Park [Football.London].
There has also been a claim from Claret & Hugh that the group haven’t even made a second offer.
Therefore, we can see why our Super Fans aren’t pleased with PAI Capital.
In other West Ham news, a report has revealed the chances of Yarmolenko leaving before September 8th.
