Worked for American companies more than half my working life, lived there for nearly three years 1978-80, numerous trips back on business over the years to Houston, holidayed over there with wife and kids in California, Florida, Arizona, New England. Even briefly engaged to an American girl just before I returned to the UK in late 80.
I like them and I hope they like Yorkshire.

Even briefly engaged to an American girl just before I returned to the UK in late 80. I like them and I hope they like Yorkshire. Worked for American companies for 2/3rds of my working life, lived in the USA for 24 years, travelled to about 20 States on business and personally, now live in Florida. Married two American women and have an American son. I still dont know who bought Town.

Luckily he's retiring soon. I’ve never seen him at a Town game. In fairness to him it's a pertinent question he's asking, we just really don't need him to ask it. Bigger issues for Barry in Huddersfield which he has ignored for the last 20 odds and when discussed held his fingers in his ears. Anyway, as I say, there's a new labour leader coming in, don't know much about her, can't remember her name but think she lives local and possibly born and bred.

Town were quite vague and only said North American in their statement, which is why we've had all the talk of how that could mean USA, Canada, Mexico etc... Matt Hughes at the Daily Mail broke the story and has specifically said they're from USA.

They’ve visited practically every state bar a couple, I think. I’d need to think a bit about it but I’m guessing I’ve been to about 15 states.

The wording is 'North American Group' this suggests it could be the continent.
If it was 'Northern American Group' this would suggest the country.
Any English experts want to help?

Perhaps they are a Saudia Arabian with a associated company based in North America. Not that’s a problem!

Canadian, Mexican or American - I don't really care as long as they invest in the long term future of Town with a view to getting us back in the Premier.

I’ve never seen him at a Town game. He could pretend to be a Town fan like the member (and I DO mean member) for Colne Valley 🤬 Now he really is a cock

Says North American on official site. Could be Canadian? North American group means it could be anyone from a list of more than twenty countries. It may turn out to be a group from the USA, but at the moment all the USA USA USA bollocks is cringe. It’ll still be cringe if it turns out the group are from there!
