New theory: Silvio is diverting black money through Licia Ronzulli and that's the actual money behind Bee. Silvio is selling 48% of the club to himself
I kinda hope this is true.
If the theory was true, why do you hope so?
Personally I've had enough of Silvio. Times have changed and football has developed but he still thinks his old ways are going to win again. The only way I would be okay with Silvio a little longer is if some serious funds came in to the club... something like at least having a 75m for the next couple of years and then maybe a 40-50m budget each year after that. That's not crazy money like City or PSG but I think that's all that's required to succeed - with the proper system in place.
They've claimed it many times before but with Bee coming along, big investments finally happening and our transfer market strategy changed I personally think we can finally call this a real Year Zero.
I don't want Galliani to repeat the mistakes he did in this market again though. I would really like to have someone else beside him or instead of him. I understand the Italianization of the squad and every great successful squad usually has a good base of locals. I just hope we spend it on the right Italians (Balo is one of them) instead of the wrong ones (still too early to find out if a 6m-Baselli would've been a better deal than a 20m-Bertolacci).
We need also need to sell some Italians, the unworthy ones who have had too many chances but continue to fail (De Sciglio, El Shaarawy - I'm worried that Monaco won't sign him permanently and that'll drop his value even further). We need a new approach with the transfer market and hopefully Bee will have a say when (or should I say if) he comes aboard.
You're a bit of a masochist, aren't you?I would be happier because I genuinely like these guys.. B & G. They kinda feel like family to me since they've been Milan since I've started loving Milan.
It would be difficult to get used to a different management for me. It will happen eventually, but it'll be difficult.
Beyond a point, it's not about success for me. It's about Milan being Milan with all that it entails. Which includes Galliani, Silvio, Milanello, San Siro, the colours, the badge etc etc. Once this included Carlo and Maldini and Nesta and Pirlo etc etc. But eventually things will change, one by one. Which is always sad for me.
next few days for quite a few days now
Bee - The Broke - Taechaubol

to all of the above
do you really believe mr bee is a fraud after everything that has happened so far? isn't the evidence that we've seen so far enough to convince you that there indeed is something moving behind the scenes? the latest news from yesterday all but confirms this.
i cannot understand why some of you are almost hoping that mr bee turns out to be a fraud just to flex your internet muscles and say you were right.
[We all want Milan back to the top, we all want to get rid of B+G since sadly the only thing they do these days is further ruining the good name of Milan they helped to build. That being said, this pink clown called Bee is not our savior, he is just another puppet for Silvio.
Until there's an official statement of him + whoever signing the contract, and the money being wired i will keep saying this is a hoax.
P.S: props to whoever moved the thread.
The operation for the sale of Milan to Bee Taechaubol is taking so long that sources suspect it may be a scam.
The latest reports indicate that Mr Bee's acquisition of 48 per cent of the shares of Milan may be finalised some time between December 16 and Christmas.
But there have been so many similar announcements that the world of finance and business is becoming wary.
According to Il Sole 24 Ore, Mr Bee needs to find €480m for the operation to go through and there are three hypotheses on the outcome.
Firstly, Mr Bee's delay may simply be caused by one of his Asian investors having opted out, and he'll be able to replace him in time, allowing the deal to go through.
Secondly, Mr Bee doesn't actually have the money, but is simply playing a game as a financial mediator and his final objective is personal publicity more so than making the deal happen. The publication suggests that this option is supported by Mr Bee's business history.
Thirdly, the money for the sale of Milan may come from dubious and not entirely legal sources, as of yet unverified. L'Espresso conjectured that this may even include President Silvio Berlusconi's own money, which would be laundered back into his hands, even though Il Sole 24 Ore believes this idea to be too far-fetched.
Indeed, Mr Berlusconi has strenously denied such allegations.
There is an investigation currently being undertaken on the sale of Milan by the city council, which will hopefully clear some of these doubts.

Milan: Mr Bee sale in doubt
It had to be one of the financial partners of Bee Taechaubol in the purchase of 48% of the Milan by Fininvest of Silvio Berlusconi.
