Usmanov in Arsenal pledge
Russian billionaire Alisher Usmanov has "no intention" of bowing to the credit crunch and selling his Arsenal shares - because he loves the club so much.
Russia's stock market has lost over 65% of its value since June, but Usmanov is committed to his 24% stake in the club.
He told The Guardian: "I'm in love with Arsenal, I have no intention of selling my stake. When a man loves a woman he can't conceivably sell that love."
