Re Brennan Johnson



I quite like him, I’d have him at City.

I remember his dad ending a City players career with one of the worst tackles I have ever seen in my life during a Youth Cup tie at Maine Road. Ged Tarpey was the lad's name. I have hated that bastard David Johnson ever since so, no, definitely no to his son ever coming to this club.

By all means laugh at them on and off the football pitch but they aren't going to go into administration or anything

If you continually spend more cash than you generate through your operations, and you run out of options to make up the deficit, then what will happen?

Why do you think the Glazers were so keen to sell part of the company? It wasn't for altruistic reasons; they needed a cash injection urgently. And why did Scruffy Jim claim they were in danger of running out of cash last year?

There must be some kind of gagging order that the rags have out on the British press, has to be. Something like this should be out in the open, and if any financial irregularities are discovered those responsible should be punished.
No business is too big to avoid going under if they continuously flout the rules - as the rags appear to have done, and still do.

They’ve turned into prime Swales 1980 City

Protests outside the ground. Massively overpaying for players from Wolves. Losing to Spurs in a final. Constantly 2 signings away from being back.

They’ll be announcing a stadium revamp with a fancy roof next.

The parallels are uncanny

I thought scruffy jim had outright lied as there are two companies and the one he spoke of wasn't running out of cash!

But Stan Collymore says they're fucking massive and will never have financial problems, and the reason we don't have problems is that we're cheating bastards.

They're all connected and have been reliant on short-term borrowing and cash from the sale of shares. There's no magic money tree. There are no more share sales afaik so if the short-term borrowing facility runs out they're fucked if they can't extend it.

The Glazers always find another rabbit to pull out of the hat

Ahh, the CollyMoron! He's been off the radar for so long I'd forgotten he even existed. He is one man I could never tire of disembowelling (well, him and Patrice Evra).

Unfortunately there's a near zero chance of Ratcliffe waving goodbye to his investment, so he'll keep funding them as far as necessary.

.............. or

Perhaps MCFC is a much more sophisticated and professionally run club than our tattered neighbors are in Trafford.
