Please sell the club to the fans. Keep Brentford UK.

Sell to a betting company and Ivan will stay for life 😂

400 mill is a sacam villa didnt even get sold for that much and they had a much higher value squad better facilities and a stadium worth 4x brentfords . Im sorry but anyone willing to pay that is either a saudi or they dont know anything and will have brentford religated within 2 years

[@amoloney1984]

With Toney and co. leaving you can smell relegation and the manager leaving being just around the corner

[@poolfans]

Villa is value at 750mil pound as for this season. Brentford should be 1/3 of that. 250mil more like it.

[@RaphaelCOYS]

Brentford is based in the biggest metropole in Europe while Villa is based in... well, the dump that is Birmingham.

[@elchoppo1160]

@@Toonbarmy123 Thought the biggest dump was Manchester ?

[@MrSinclairn]

Yep,amazing but at the same time,ridiculous valuation at 400m for a mid-table London-based outfit,who have never won any major silverware in their entire history.🙄 NB Both Villa(4th most successful EPL club) and NUFC(9th most successful EPL club) with better overall squad and stadium infrastructure,were each,sold for less.

Qatar to buy Brentford and disrespect Man United in the process 😂

Brentford are the latest team to go all American ain't they.

[@charlesapana9935]

Okay that's fine

Wish Todd bohley brought Brentford instead of Chelsea Kmt

[@saqib7965]

400m 😂😂

[@fusionsuper34]

No more American owners taking over English. Enough of this nonsense. This is the English Premier League, not the American Premier League. Give Brentford to another English owner who will reflect the ambitions of both the club and fans, plus respects the history, culture and traditions of Brentford.

[@jonnyhull7860]

Brentford aint worth 400mil jesus😮😮😮

[@finfog4590]

As a part of a new superl league they are

[@saqib7965]

Brentford are worth 150m

[@3dM3]

More money for Ivan

[@really8930]

Sell now, just when the club is starting to dice with relegation. Could go down without major investment and acquisition of better players.

[@ht8286]

Actually think Frank has been a terrible appointment.. Too many average signings

[@tomh6588]

@@ht8286 their recruitment process isn't as simple as the manager selecting. It's primarily data driven and goes through several steps of selection.

[@blackmantis3130]

The sale wouldn't be complete this season.
