Re: ALK Capital or Farnell/Elkashashy takeover
ALK Capital are moving closer to finalising a deal to buy Burnley amid optimism that a takeover by the American sports investment company could be concluded before Christmas.
Alan Pace, a former president of Major League Soccer franchise Real Salt Lake who heads up ALK, has been in daily dialogue with Burnley chairman Mike Garlick. Talks are now at an advanced after months of negotiations and an extensive due diligence process.
Egyptian entrepreneur Mohamed Sayed Zein Elkashashy and Chris Farnell, a Cheshire-based sports lawyer, have also been vying for ownership of Burnley. However, ALK appear to be in pole position to acquire Garlick’s majority 49.24 per cent shareholding and John Banaszkiewicz’s 28.2 per cent stake in the Premier League club.
There are still details to be ironed out but there is quiet confidence a buyout could be completed in the coming weeks and well in advance of the January transfer window, when manager Sean Dyche will be eager to strengthen his squad.
Pace, who splits his time between London and New York and is reported to have been househunting in the Lancashire area, considers Dyche to be central to his plans for Burnley. ALK and Burnley have both declined to comment.
Burnley moved out of the relegation zone on Monday night after claiming their first league win of the campaign with a precious 1-0 victory over Crystal Palace at Turf Moor but face a tough task away to Manchester City on Saturday.
Dyche’s relationship with Garlick has become severely strained this year and Burnley’s failure to adequately strengthen in the summer window did little to ease tensions.
Veteran midfielder Dale Stephen was Burnley’s only senior recruit, despite the departures of Jeff Hendrick, Aaron Lennon and Joe Hart, and the situation was compounded in the opening weeks of the season by injuries to a host of key players.
Midfielder Jack Cork is still sidelined but Dyche has a number of players back now as Burnley set their sights on moving up to the table, although the manager remains eager for reinforcements.
Pace previously tried to buy Sheffield United and worked in various senior roles for Citigroup, in addition to being managing director of now defunct US bank Lehman Brothers for 12 years until 2006.
An investor in the transfer market platform Player Lens, Pace is an advocate for increased use of technology in the transfer market and scouting, if not a “Moneyball” style approach to recruitment and analytics.
In a column for Sport Business in August, Pace wrote: “As someone who worked for 20 years on Wall Street before entering the world of sport, the positive impact that technology and data can have on a vertical as big as football’s transfer market comes as no surprise.
“I’ve long believed that talent identification, player development and performance in sport can be aided and enhanced by state-of-the-art technology and predictive analytics used throughout other industries.
“Why, for example, would a club take a chance on signing a big-money player or adopt a specific training method without concrete data that the actions can have a positive impact on performance and development of the team?
“This isn’t about playing ‘Moneyball’ or using data to identify low-cost, high-return solutions, but being insight led and using the technology at our disposal to make smarter decisions that will carry long-term benefits.”

Re: ALK Capital or Farnell/Elkashashy takeover
Just this little bit about "being managing director of Lehman Brothers...." Investment banks have many, many people who hold the title "managing director" - it doesn't mean he was the managing director of Lehmans, just one of the staff holding a more senior position than "analyst," "vice president" "executive director" etc.claretandy wrote: ↑Tue Nov 24, 2020 5:06 pm

I've not watched "Industry" yet. I imagine there are many "managing directors" or similar in this tv programme.
Before anyone worries, Alan Pace was nowhere near the part of Lehman's business that "bust the bank."
And, "managing director" is the job title he held when Lehman Brothers business failed. I'd guess he started out as an "analyst" then was promoted to "vp" and was later promoted again to "md."
My source for Alan Pace's career - LinkedIn. I'm sure that's exactly the same as the Telegraph journo.

So you actually believe both bids won't be able to provide any proof of funding when it has been widely reported that one already has.

Re: ALK Capital or Farnell/Elkashashy takeover
Assuming they have proper funding to provide the manager, the words from ALK seem to align well with what Dyche is like. It seems an alround more optimistic and less risky approach - more Burnley, if you will.
No Farnell either has to be a plus.

I'm not saying it is the case here but there's a big difference between proving you have the funds and proving the provenance of the funds.

Re: ALK Capital or Farnell/Elkashashy takeover
From all the people I've spoken to, and that's many now, it is obvious that the two approaches would be completely different.jedi_master wrote: ↑Tue Nov 24, 2020 5:45 pmAssuming they have proper funding to provide the manager, the words from ALK seem to align well with what Dyche is like.

I know very little about ALK other than the fact that they've been involved in football previously, that they have some connections in Lancashire around 25 miles from the Turf. Having said that, those I have spoken to about them have all generally been very positive about their approach and about them as people.
As for the other deal, I've spoken to far too many people who have been ringing alarm bells at the mere mention of Farnell. That's not just people from Charlton I can assure you although I have spoken to them both at supporter and club level. Should that deal win the day then I would be very concerned.
I don't know where the funding is coming from for either deal but it seems that the ALK deal would be funded from various sources while the other bid is more likely to come from less different sources.
From what I've learned, with no mention of northern powerhouse or being state owned, I'd be on the American side right now.

From what you know Tony, if Ducker is close with Farnells PR agency then would this suggest a climbdown from EL Kashasy and Farnell as he would be pushing this if they were in pole position?

Re: ALK Capital or Farnell/Elkashashy takeover
Let’s just pray it gets done in the next fortnight or so to allow some time to have conversations with Dyche and get a proper January strategy formulated.
Just imagine if this money actually allows us to sign players at the START of a transfer window. I remember when Flood and his wife’s diamonds got Ade in the day the window opened when he first joined the board.

ALK were trying to buy it from McCabe but he also had a court case going on as to whether he had to sell to someone else. It was a long-running battle with ALK only being on the periphery.

Re: ALK Capital or Farnell/Elkashashy takeover
If Elkashashy really is serious and really does have a bundle of cash behind him and if he would be good for the club (indeed any club) with his money and his ambition, then it strikes me he would be well advised to choose himself a wholly different British based "front man", because the mere mention of this guy Farnell in any bid makes it sound immediately toxic and dodgy to many people in football these days and whether that's actually fair or not really doesn't matter. It just does. Although of course it's also possible that they are close mates and actually deserve each other!!

Re: ALK Capital or Farnell/Elkashashy takeover
Absolutely and basically my point. Anyone who thinks getting involved with Farnell is a good idea immediately gets crossed off the list in my opinion. It's not doing Elkashsashy any favours and actually may say a lot about his judgement. Surely Mike Garlick must be sceptical about his involvement.ClaretTony wrote: ↑Tue Nov 24, 2020 6:46 pmIf he really is serious and really does have a bundle of cash behind him then why would he use Farnell in the first place?

I think everyone will be pleased come the end of January and beyond with events. The wheels have been in motion for a long time and you'll see some interesting and pleasing developments come mid January. Some of which will put a big smile on Clarets faces. Possibly even surprise a lot of you.

Tarks signing a new contract. Sean Dyche signing a new contract. Both those would make a great start to Christmas - even if we have to wait until mid-Jan (2021, of course).

Re: ALK Capital or Farnell/Elkashashy takeover
James Fletcher at inside is a one man band operation just like Darnell’s law firm. He has had several companies and dissolved them.
As I’ve said countless times the Farnell Elkashashy “bid” is fantasy.
