Summary

It may be an Interlull but we've still got a podcast for you today, and in the wake of Arsenal's financial results being released last week, I chat with Kieron O'Connor (@SwissRamble), about a healthy profit, cash in the bank, how we still lag behind the others in terms of commercial revenue, the challenges of improving that in a season when we're in the Europa League, potential transfer funds and lots more. We also touch on the current situation involving Stan Kroenke and Alisher Usmanov, and what the future might hold there.

There's some world-coullap fires and people will keep an eye on those things.

But from an arsehole point of view, and certainly in relation to what's happening on the pitch,

0:54.7

everything should have been really quiet.

0:56.4

I suppose it is really quiet when it comes to what's happening on the pitch.

1:00.1

It's what's happening off the pitch that's creating all the headlines.

1:04.6

We ran a story last week about how Stan Krunky had made an offer to Alicia Usmanov to

1:10.1

purchase his share holding in the club.

1:12.3

Just a little over 30% is owned by Usmanov.

1:16.5

If that bit had been accepted, that would have allowed Krunky or would allow Krunky to purchase

1:24.7

all the remaining shares and take the club private.

1:27.8

Now of course there are privately owned clubs in the Premier League, you think of Chelsea.

1:31.3

For example, and people will say, hey, that's working out pretty okay for Chelsea.
