Debt
 

We get a winding up order issued for £308K :confused:
yet:

Manchester United's debts swell to £716.5m - Barclays Premier League - ESPN Soccernet

Re: Debt
 

Spookily I was just discussing with Mel about the article on West Ham on the BBC.

BBC Sport - Football - Hammers want £100,000-a-week star

110m in debt and they brag about offering a special player 100k a week.

It stinks and the sooner football implodes on itelf and the big clubs go to the wall the better it will be all round.

Re: Debt
 

This bit got me
Time they clamped down on this, but as long as their paying their debt off every week everyone seems happy :mad:

Re: Debt
 

there's something in the back of the observer about the debt

Re: Debt
 

Uniteds or ours?

Stanleys

Re: Debt
 

It seems Fifa are changing the rules for season 2012/13 All clubs will only be able to spend the money they generate within their own club, looks like clubs such as City(overspent by £98 million, this year, biggest lose in football history) Chelski etc will be up the creek without paddle

Re: Debt
 

Gordon Brown has now criticized football clubs for running up too much debt...

BBC Sport - Football - Prime Minister Gordon Brown warns football over debts

Quite right too. Just imagine if he ran the country like that, building up huge debts. Where would we be then, I ask you?

Re: Debt
 

Football clubs need to get a grip especially those at top end, money has seriously spoilt the great game (not quite at stanley the lack of money ironically improved the footy). Its gone silly money now and to me spoils it.

Re: Debt
 

Case of "Kettle Calling The Pan" yon i reckon.:rolleyes:

Re: Debt
 

I'll believe that when it ever happens... mind you it's a good job they didn't have them rules back in 1994/95 eh! ;) :eek:

Re: Debt
 

Ya but there's a big difference to whats happening today, Arabs and Yanks buying clubs instead of toy train sets, at least Jack Walker was a life long Rovers fan, and money isn't the only think that wins titles, ask Newcastle, Liverpool, Leeds Spurs who've been throwing money at the prem for years any ain't won it:rolleyes:

Re: Debt
 

There ain't no difference.. and if start you start talking about life long supporters of clubs then let's talk those that play for the region they where born in.. I'll start with.. Wes Brown, Gary Neville, Paul Scholes, no player born in Lanchashire plays for Rovers
Rover's and Burnley employ players that ain't born and breed.. time to get hold of the fact you lot import your players.. nuff said

Re: Debt
 

which is all irrelavant to n owner n club debt.:confused:

Re: Debt
 

It's relevant when fans start slagging off what they call "big" clubs and claim they are the ones who play the game as it should be played ..but at the same time whinge about money problems.. it's all kak.. 30yrs ago there could be an argument about "local" teams being skint and claiming it's cos they had to rely on local support and local lads playing for them. there is a top team that for 30yrs have had good players from Lancashire playing for them and still do today.. more than can be said of Rovers, Burnley and Accy Stan. :cool:

Re: Debt
 

that i disagree with having watched rovers youth throughout 80s - early 90s, was plenty of local lads playing, the main differance being, most never made the grade, i put that down to the simple fact, that usually the best sign fer the glamour clubs.;)

Re: Debt
 

to right..and if your's or mine had been picked up then you would want them to play for the big clubs..let's not take things away from the Lanc's lads.. Gerrard, Brown, Neville's, Rooney, Scholes, and even that scouse dog Carrager or whatever.. these are good players from Lancashire and they play for clubs that some people have a problem with.:rolleyes:

Re: Debt
 

Dont see any taking away from lancs lads, just dont see its owt to do wi massive club debts.:confused:

Re: Debt
 

Just shows how pathetic you really are Mancie, you call Carrager Scouse dog, what the hell is Rooney, :p:p

Re: Debt
 

just a figure of speech Jaysay :)...that's they way it is.:rolleyes:

Re: Debt
 

If Mark Thatcher played for United you call him a God:D
