So who is Markus Liebherr?
AS revealed in yesterday’s Daily Echo, Markus Liebherr is a member of one of Europe’s top family business dynasties.
He is a son of the late Hans Liebherr, who started the company – one of the world’s leading manufacturers of construction machinery – 60 years ago in Germany.
Markus was given equal shares in the German holding company in the 1980s when the business moved its management headquarters to Switzerland.
He later handed most of his shares back to his family, and he has been running his own group of companies, the Mali Group, since 1994.
In his higher education career, Markus studied engineering with an agricultural focus The Mali group contains five independent businesses, all belonging to the MALI Markus Liebherr International group whose head offices are in Fribourg, Switzerland.
● One of the companies is CRT Common Rail Technologies AG based in Beringen, Switzerland – a business concerning the ‘research and design of common rail systems’.
● Another of his companies is Mali Motan AG, also based in Beringen and concerning the ‘manufacturing and sales of CVT transmissions and common rail systems.”
● A third company is the German-based BSG Bodensee Steuergeräte – its primary business being the ‘research, design, manufacturing and sales of electronic control units for common rail injection and transmissions.”
● MALI Spezialfahrzeuge GmbH based in Eberhardzell, Germany, concerns ‘research and design transmission technology.’ ● MALI Spezialfahrzeugbau GmbH, based in Elbe, Germany, deals with ‘research, design, manufacture and sale’ of offroad vehicles.
The group’s website says: “Our ideology is dealing with the development of leading-edge products oriented at the market that follow technologically new ways and show ecologically a large potential.”

For once I don't care, I'll buy a new one, just to exorcise the stench of the Lowe year!
Cheers Heir Liebherr!

What's happned to your takeover anyway, or Pompeygate as the Sun calls it. You'd better hope the FA don't investigate further your accounts for when Redcrapp was in charge.
Still in the wrong division, still without the right players and who wants to play for a div1 team? You've had a millionaire in charge before and look what happened. You scummers have little idea of what it takes to run a club. The biggest job is to get the average scummer through a turnstile. Looking forward to seeing an average crowd of 9k ? The FA still have'nt finished looking at your accounts and the way things were dealt with. I'd expect more point deductions yet.

Wrong! Eastleigh actually. Good luck, as we'll be playing you in two years in the Conference. Your new boss will walk once his had his 5 mins of fame on the back page of the Echo. His takeover has been a rush-job and once he finds out all the things Rupert has hidden he'll be on his way. Watch and learn.

You should see all the miserable faces walking down Gosport High Street.
Hear they're trying to re-sign Jimmy Dickinson to replace Crouch

Willy if you are an Eastleigh supporter whats all this bitterness, scummers & all that? you sound well jelous! Personaly like most Saints supporters I like to see Eastleigh & all our local clubs do well, such a shame to hear an (Eastleigh) supporter talking such crap about Saints, but then you are a Pompey supporter really so I can understand why you are upset, most clubs will never be owned by such a high profile & wealthy billionaire, Oh sorry did that make you feel jelous again! Ha ha ha poor old Pompey!!!!COYR
S/W - down-wild, surely that should be "Down Wilde"?!
