Breaking News on Sky ref Utd takeover

[CITY FOR LIFE]

Breaking news The Utd Trust are to ask fans to donate £25 to the Red Knights to buy the club out, fu@k me it sounds like something from the uni bond league, if they are so wealthy why ask the fans to dip in their pockets yet again.

Precisely. In this world of banker bonuses, sub-primes, stock market ups and downs, you'd trust bankers and financial experts just a little less than yer local MP.

What if the tables were turned ?

If a group of City fans preparing for a takeover asked for the fans to chip in would you !?

I certainly would !

Can you imagine? Hey everyone at Eastlands, give me £25 each and I'll buy the club and we can have it as a fan's own run club. I used to have a Henry the Cat savings account with the Woolwich so I'll really up there with all that money stuff. Having made my fortune in other industries, I'm confident I know how to run a football club profitably and competitively, to a level superior to that of the current management. How hard can it be? I'm really good on Footy Manager too.

I totally promise not to run off with your cash, and to prove I'm actually saving the club not royal shafting it, we'll be calling oursleves 'Knights' so everyone thinks we are here to save the club. Oh, and want to buy a scarf to show you are a real supporter? Great, that's another £20 thanks.

So lets get this right, 12 very rich backers who have attracted 'great interest' in raising the 700mil - 1 billion to buy out the club. Now we have the Utd Trust asking fans to donate money to support the bid, strange that, the fans having to help raise the dosh.
Doe's this mean the 'Red Knights' are struggling to raise the Billion required, didn't Liverpool fans go down this route a while back wanting fans to raise the money to buy the yanks out.
The yanks must be laughing their socks off, but not has much has me.

Can't they use the profits from the sale of those fetching yellow and green scarves?

 

[Its in The Blood]

"I just need your bank account details, then we can complete this takeover...."

Ha ha! I'm buying this club for my nephew in Nigeria. Please sign the document of ownership and I'll pay you next week via paypal.

Good point above though - why do they need to raise maybe half a million or so from supporters?

£25 x 100,000 = £2.5m

The Glazers are shitting it.

Brilliant. The best bit about it is how serious they all take it. They don't realise how daft they all look waltzing around town with their snot and vomit scarves on.
