I remember hearing the same thing.   Khan had to promise Weaver he wouldn't move the team for at least 5 years.

Team is clearly moving to London, if they weren't Stanzi would be starting. 

 

Kahn hates Stanzi. Straight up.

What is with those comments? Why does the media purposely spread disinformation to make other fans think poorly of the Jaguars? 

 

The statistics do not lie. We have relatively GOOD stadium attendance compared to our market and recent success(or failures) on the field. So why does the media continue to perpetuate otherwise? Who is paying the talking heads to subconsciously implant the ideas that Jacksonville is an unsuccessful and unprofitable franchise? I realize we are unpopular, but it seems the media does everything in its power to make sure we stay that way. Unpopular, an afterthought. So that when they move us fewer people will care or raise exceptions.

 

Disgusting.

He made a verbal promise IIRC. Nothing hard on paper and nothing about a certain time frame.

Ty for the article and you described it correctly by saying it relates to it. Unfortunately conspiracy mongers twist words and the meaning becomes something different. I remember reading this before and it did not strike me as Khan moving the team in five years. Good post D6.

My pleasure, JagsQuest.

 

I have no idea what Mr. Khan's long term objectives are other than he wants his businesses to continue to grow on a global scale.

 

The main thing I would recommend to Jaguars fans is to support the team as much as you possibly can.  This way, it will make it much more difficult to justify the team moving down the road.

The NFL commissioner wants it bad.

 

The only thing that is keeping my hopes alive that it will NOT happen is Jerry Jones used the word expansion when discussing it.

 

Jerry is a good man that helped us get started. We still appreciate what he and the other owners did.

requires three straight years of financial losses or proof that the city has failed to maintain the stadium.

 

 

If Khan really wants to move NOTHING can stop him from moving off-shore, right? The lease is with Jacksonville, not London, right? London is on foreign soil.

 

That's why some of us wanted a lease extension tied to the new scoreboard vote. Language that addresses foreign soil is not in the current lease, I believe.

 

I believe success has a thousand fathers and failure is an orphan.

 

All Khan has to do is move the team. Once the London stadium is full and the rest of the NFL sees the incredible throngs, it's hard to imagine we're anything other than a second-thought and a slight snicker.

 

What are we really going to do? Sail the Atlantic with a fire department fire boat and hose down people along the Thames? We can't make war with England.

Well with 43 million by the city going into stadium improvements, there goes the underlined portion.

 

For the first portion to happen, the Jaguars would have to open its books to the city of Jacksonville, thus making it public record.  The NFL will not allow that.

He can move the team if  he wants to.   The only question would be the amount of damages he would have to pay.   We cannot force him  to keep the team in Jacksonville.  

 

That said, I don't see any indication that he wants to move the team.  And what would be the motivation?   Money?   He has plenty of money, and if Forbes can be trusted, his net worth has increased by about a billion dollars in the last two years.   His auto parts business must be hugely profitable- much more profitable than an NFL team would ever be.

He would have to open the books and prove the losses in order to get  out without paying damages.   He can still move the team if he's willing to pay the damages detailed in the lease.  

 

But like I said above, I don't think moving is on his radar right now.   I think he will first put a good team on the field, and then see if we support it.

Stupid is as stupid does. While you spend your time "painfully acknowledging" a conspiracy theory, I'll be content rooting for the Jacksonville Jaguars in their stadium here in Jacksonville.

What conspiracy theory? The possibility that Khan could move the team in the future? You have got to be kidding me. Thats not a conspiracy theory, its reality. Khan could move the team today if he really wanted too. But I believe him when he says he is trying to make it work, and the fact that he promised Weaver he would be here for 5 years. After that, well, I don't see him as having any obligation to us, or anyone else if our team isn't succeeding or doing as well financially as he wants. Denying that he can move the team is exactly what I said it was, sticking your head in the sand.

Where did you come up with Khan agreeing to keep the Jags here for 5 years as part of the purchase transaction? Please, please do not tell me this is just your personal opinion. Please, please tell me you have a legitimate source and provide that source. Otherwise you are just stirring the pot for the worse.

That was the agreement he made with Weaver as part of the sale.

Never argue with idiots. They drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

This is getting old, we need to start a JagsArentMovingTwitter or something and get like a bazillion followers and everytime some novice reporter makes an article about this we just spam his social media for weeks until he apologizes

Khan just opened the veterans center, is interested in getting something going in the Shipyards.....what more can the man do?

Just about everything he does shows more commitment to Jacksonville and still these naysayers persist.

 

I guess after a few more years this will die a natural death. in the meantime I bet some other team moves to lA that should.

Let them go back to where they were at one time....the rams,raiders or chargers. They all have more attendance and winning problems

aS WELL as they're practiced in moving around.

 

the London games gained us some international fans and hopefully we'll win for them over there in the coming years.

Because Jaguars is our mantra 

khan's investment in jax has zero to do with keeping the jags in town and everything to do with making money. investing in business ventures in town is not married to keeping the jags in town.

Okay genius, then why would he make investments in the city including money out of his own pockets to improve the stadium if he didn't have the intention to stay long term. Sometimes, people like you like to see the forest without the trees my good friend.

If it has zero to do with it, why would he do it?

I don't see any other "businessman" stepping up to do it and we have plenty with enough money in this neck of the woods.

The shipyards has sat idle for years, having several false starts.

 

Do you think maybe he's trying to put down "roots" and show people he's here to stay?

Contributing to revitalize downtown is certainly a way to do that.

Or did that cross your mind?
