An Aussie here. You can excuse me for losing my shit when I saw Bentleigh Greens (one of the more well known clubs in our second tier) and Telstra (our single biggest telecommunications network) come up in this video lmao
Dude, having A man who either is Australian, or has worked for a long time in Australia knowing more than you about a local club is wild. We must be smart or he is very stupid.
yeah telstra caught me out as another aussie (i am not very far into aussie soccer big afl fan expected bentleigh to be from like a scottish or lower leaguesin britain not from morrabin of all places
He initially tagged "Central Highlands Council", who are in Australia, rather than Highland Council, where Inverness is. Going by public records, none of his companies have any money. One of his companies has taken out a loan (unspecified ammount) from a Jersey-based financial company. If he has money, this must be it. For those who don't know, Jersey is a tax haven, very limited information of any type coming through.
The opposite of brevity (when it comes to language) is verbosity. Unrelated, I took Inverness Caley Thistle to the semi finals of the Champions League in five seasons in Football Manager, back when it was still called Championship Manager.
The statement about people who post a lot on LinkedIn is SO true 🤣 It comes over so self loving egocentric and fits very well to this guy his personality
11:22 “standing against the rail for most of the game”. The Caledonian Stadium is a 7,500 all seater stadium. It was a top flight stadium for about 15 years and you can’t have traditional terraces in top flight stadiums since the Taylor Report. It’s not a stereotypical third tier stadium.
There’s been nothing in the Scottish mainstream media questioning this. It’s gone under the radar except for that pointless bbc article. This looks like another Craig Whyte oldco Rangers event to me.
Remember, it was an Irish journalist who first wrote about the Rangers tax case and that White was a con. The SMSM began to write about it, when Rangers went bust. So don't expect anything from them.
I've supported Caley since we were in the league and the last year or so has been an utter nightmare. When this was announced it took me one Google search to uncover massive red flags about this guy, our board clearly didn't even do that. I can see this all falling through when he needs to actually hand over some money.
7:50 Telstra is basically the T-Mobile of Australia. The job he had there is extremely prestigious and I have no clue what the hell it has to do with Inverness
He accidentally tagged the "Central Highlands Council" which is in central Tasmania, Australia and only has about 1,500 people living in it! Also Bentleigh Greens is a semi-pro club in South Eastern Melbourne, Australia and Telstra is the largest Telecommunications company in Australia. How these even get mentioned in a video about Inverness CT is absolutely wild.
It's all the fault of the SFA. They removed the rules for a fit and proper owner last year. This all gives me "Gregg White Motherwell born Billionaire" vibes.
As a fan of a team in the SPFL, I'm hoping this is just funny and not tragic. Because there is never any joy in seeing a team do badly enough to not exist.
I did an internship for someone like this. These kinds of people constantly make things bigger than they are, lie frequently, and think that they're a genius.
The names involved have all these nondescript roles at certain companies, some of which I’ve never heard of. And they tend to bounce from one business venture to the next, in quick succession. The next part of this story, you’re gonna find somebody who is the international financial growth account supervisor at a company called Vloxum Enterprises Limited or something. LoL.
At 18:43 it shows Jimmy Nguyen as one of the Executives. A quick google suggests he was involved with Bitcoin, if that doesn't red flag the whole thing I'm not sure what else is. The only way it would be worse is if he was also an AI-bro to go with being a Crpyto-bro.
They where in the final of the Scottish Cup two seasons ago it's good to see the SFA still have not implemented a fit and proper ownership test for club owners Scotland is wide open for roges like this guy to come in and buy our football clubs for how knows what purpose
I support a team that was in Inverness’s league last season, been many times up there. From what I’ve seen the club has been in shambles for a few years now. This new guy coming in seems like it’s going down that bad route again. They were quite a big team in Scotland so for them to go this far down is a big fall from grace. p.s Duncan Ferguson signed his own son, lol. And he sits on the bench as they have no budget for players it seems.
Pause...I could have a 'real' good shot at naming that '02 team. It was played in my home city of Glasgow and Zidane scored that ridiculous volley from R. Larcos's cross! Finally some juicy Scottish crap 👍✌️❤️
If the sale has been finalized does that mean he actually had money to give them? Even if that is true, did the previous owner(s) of ICTFC just not do any sort of background on the guy? Hopefully the league vetoes the sale.
Our CEO is a halfwitted imbicile who despises the fans and forgot to order seats at Tynecastle when he was in charge there. Really not the brightest bulb in the drawer
Good watch. What is different between chad and Romania flag then?😅 For those interested in owning a football team; for only £5, €5 / $5 you can own a share Fan ownership in Clapton CFC a team in East London near West Ham Olympic stadium.😮 Does anyone know if they are on football manager? Could we see Zealand buy their membership share as a project for this new season? Or make a video on them? Edit update Well done Zealand on finding a uk government website called company house Who show you business and companies in uk. We shall see if this sale gets approved by Scottish football yes.
I just found an article written about this man www.strathspey-herald.co.uk/sport/meet-the-new-owner-of-inverness-caley-thistle-356659/ He claims to own Hayes and Yeading but when I searched the gov.uk page for Hayes and Yeading he isn't listed in the people section. I'm from the US so maybe I don't understand how it works, but he is lying about his club ownership to a journalist and it took me 30 seconds to verify the information.
Truly one of the most phygital zealand videos of all time
My AI says that's a word but my grandfather says it isn't

Perfect.

7,750 in the lower leagues, because we can reopen a wee terrace opposite the main stand

Poor man's Craig White was my first impression of the guy when I first read about him buying Caley
This is the football equivalent of Elizabeth Holmes at Theronos 😂
A guy with no money, no real interest or love for the club (since he only just found out it exists) sounds like a brilliant choice for a club owner.
Watched with my headphones on so I could cross the phygital barrier with the homie Zealand
"are you using bing?" XD
Not gonna lie, I chuckled every time you mentioned Entertainment 720 😅
When are you interviewing him?
AHA!!! It's a speech bubble, a speech bubble for the frog that Z plans to use at some time
So you're saying I can own a Football club?
I live less than an hour away from Inverness, this is massive for me

How does anyone not know Inverness CT? They were the reason behind the best news headline ever, "Super Caley go ballistic, Celtic are atrocious."
As a fan of a team in the SPFL, I'm hoping this is just funny and not tragic.
Because there is never any joy in seeing a team do badly enough to not exist.
but how the fuck did this dude get the money to buy the team? racketeering?
I'm saying a front man for a group of shady investors or con group. Something like that
He probably didn't. But so far, nobody has asked him to actually cough it up.
Jersey based debt. I'm not joking
Just an "entrepreneur" and possible crypto ho who magics imaginary money out of thin air.

I have to admit, this video made me get phygital with myself 😤
This guy doesn’t have access to search engines
