Didn't know until just now that Steve Cooper is Keith Cooper's son
Got the wrong map out when looking for a sports team near Birmingham, AL?American ownership for Walsall.
Possibly a bit unfair, but alarm bells would be ringing for me straight away. Why would benevolent overseas investors want any part of Walsall?
All of them will cost a lot more than Walsall.It's a mad choice. Plymouth or Bristol Rovers or Swindon or Oxford would be far more sensible as lesser local competition. Walsall will always struggle to match the big four West Midlands, or indeed Coventry, and probably even Burton now.
Oxford have the barrier of the ground, the club doesn't own it and Kassam just gets obstructive if anyone tries. Finding an alternative site is a nightmare, it took them years to leave the Manor despite it being an obvious deathtrap for decades.It's a mad choice. Plymouth or Bristol Rovers or Swindon or Oxford would be far more sensible as lesser local competition.
