KSE began a business partnership with the Gunners in February through Major League Soccer club Colorado Rapids. 美国运动大亨Stan Kroenke的KSE公司已经无条件地正式买下ITV的9.99%股份 在二月份时KSE已经跟兵工厂达成协议，会经由MLS的科罗拉多急流队共同合作 证交所的公开声明是这样子的： "ITV plc today announced that it had unconditionally sold its 9.99% shareholding interest in Arsenal Holdings plc to KSE UK INC, a vehicle controlled by Stan Kroenke, and has also entered into conditional arrangements with KSE UK INC in relation to the sale of its 50% shareholding in Arsenal Broadband Limited." Last month, Kroenke's spokesman Jurgen Mainka denied the American billionaire wanted to buy the club. 上个月Kroenke的发言人否认他有意买下兵工厂 Kroenke has interests in NFL side St Louis Rams and owns the Denver Nuggets (NBA) and Colorado Avalanche (NHL). Kroenke已经拥有NBA的丹佛金块队、NHL的科罗拉多雪崩队、MLS的科罗拉多急流队、 NFL的圣路易公羊队 (只差MLB了) Arsenal are valued at around ￡404m and billionaire Kroenke was widely thought to be interested in buying shares. 兵工厂的市值约价值4亿400万英镑 There is an increasing trend of American businessmen linking up with English clubs. This season Liverpool and Aston Villa have been bought by American business tycoons, and Manchester United have been owned by Malcolm Glazer since 2005. 这赛季利物浦和阿斯顿维拉都已经被美国大亨买下，曼联则是早在2005年就被收购 Kroenke came 153rd in the prestigious Forbes 400 - a list of the wealthiest Americans. Kroenke是富比士400富人排行榜的第153名 That put him seven places higher than the Glazer family and 89 ahead of Villa owner Randy Lerner. 他的排名比Glazer家族和维拉队老板Randy Lerne都还要前面 Arsenal's major shareholders, including vice chairman David Dein and director Danny Fiszman, are not believed to be interested in selling up. 副主席Dein（拥有14.6%股份）和执行董事Fiszman（拥有24.11%）都无意出售股份 另外Bracewell-Smith女士（拥有16%）也是关键人物 -- 不知道先前买下Fiszman手上659股的不知名投资者，是否跟Kroenke有关？ 软（台面上以急流队谈合作）硬（台面下收购股票？）兼施，挺厉害的手腕 详见3794 3795 3858 3995篇，或搜寻"经营" --
