According to a quick internet search, Jeremy Schwimmer, from New York State, is, among other things, a Managing Partner at Sand Oak Capital Partners LLC, a private equity firm "focused on the acquisition of closely held businesses requiring recapitalization, succession planning or turnaround". He is following Les Reid, Sky Blues Talk, Covsupport News Service and the Coventry Telegraph on Twitter.

Make of that what you will.

Shame I thought it was the bloke in friends. Thought he may have bought Jennifer Anniston with him.

Also just noticed that Les Reid is being followed on Twitter by Chuck D and Public Enemy. Imagine if they took over?...

They might bring some Black Steel in the Hour of Chaos just as Coventry City's administrator was moving to Shut 'em Down and Sky Blue fans Bring the Noise to Fight the Power. Still, let's not get carried away - Don't Believe the Hype.

Les Reid is a respectable journo, why would he behave this way?
Why loose trust of the very people he working with?

Maybe he made a simple error of at the end of a long day. Most humans make mistakes from time to time...

He might have just saved us a lot of bother. I presume sharks like Mr Schwimmer and Sisu circle the same waters.

And like fuck will we or the Football League ever allow another Hedge Fund take over a football club (Well, you'd hope not anyway.)

I doubt this whole episode will have any impact in the future should a Hedge Fund wish to buy a football club. This is the FL we're talking about.

Nice pun there, intended or not? Nevertheless I share your sentiments.

I assume it was meant to be a DM. Many journalists do business via Twitter in a similar way.

We might not. The FL however....well, so long as their fixtures go ahead. You could've had a consortium of Chemical Ali, Saddam Hussein, Pol Pot and Col Gaddaffi taking over...all good so long as we can play at Leyton Orient on a Tuesday night in January....

I copied and pasted the tweet directly, i think les was meant to DM this, accidently tweeted it openly and spelt the blokes @name wrong and then realised.
Ive got a screenshot of the tweet but no idea how to upload it now with the new SBT layout!

the title is LR's mistaken tweet,
there is no @jschwimner but there is a @jschwimmer who follows LR and various Sky Blues links

More disturbingly he follows
@SkyBluesTalk so he reads all the POISON on here!
No wonder nobody wants to buy us!

sssssssssshhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!
