I mentioned it in the regular thread when it popped up in October, that'd make 6/20 teams in the EPL American owned.

Could go down to 5 if Randy Lerner can offload Villa on some schmuck. I think Harris was in the running to buy Villa as well. I think I read that with the Americans, Russians and Arabs owning BPL clubs. Only 7 of the 20 teams are owned by Brits.
