KSE began a business partnership with the Gunners in February through Major League Soccer club Colorado Rapids. 美國運動大亨Stan Kroenke的KSE公司已經無條件地正式買下ITV的9.99%股份 在二月份時KSE已經跟兵工廠達成協議，會經由MLS的科羅拉多急流隊共同合作 證交所的公開聲明是這樣子的： "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. 上個月Kroenke的發言人否認他有意買下兵工廠 Kroenke has interests in NFL side St Louis Rams and owns the Denver Nuggets (NBA) and Colorado Avalanche (NHL). Kroenke已經擁有NBA的丹佛金塊隊、NHL的科羅拉多雪崩隊、MLS的科羅拉多急流隊、 NFL的聖路易公羊隊 (只差MLB了) Arsenal are valued at around ￡404m and billionaire Kroenke was widely thought to be interested in buying shares. 兵工廠的市值約價值4億400萬英鎊 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. 這賽季利物浦和阿斯頓維拉都已經被美國大亨買下，曼聯則是早在2005年就被收購 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家族和維拉隊老闆Randy Lerne都還要前面 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（擁有14.6%股份）和執行董事Fiszman（擁有24.11%）都無意出售股份 另外Bracewell-Smith女士（擁有16%）也是關鍵人物 -- 不知道先前買下Fiszman手上659股的不知名投資者，是否跟Kroenke有關？ 軟（檯面上以急流隊談合作）硬（檯面下收購股票？）兼施，挺厲害的手腕 詳見3794 3795 3858 3995篇，或搜尋"經營" --
