Clubs who have huge potential for a rich backer?

Sheffield Wednesday

 

[remember arthur mann]

It has to be London, massive catchment area, top transport, no brainer really.

Parrs Wood Rangers,or whatever they're called.Regularly pull in crowds of 35plus,located in the wealthiest area of the city,so admisiion prices no problem,and after-match tea and cake in the lovely cafe in Fletcher Moss Park.

FC United (I'll get my coat)

Good shout.

Yes largely ignored and probably seen by most as a wind up comment but the stadium is there. It's a town full of fans supporting.many other clubs miles away - just ripe to catch bandwagon jumpers

I've ordered your taxi....

Sunderland are a sleeping giant , a modern stadium and a potential for 50k crowds with a succesful team , it would be worth it to see the Barcodes get wound up , the Makems with a couple of billion quid in the bank would knock the smug smiles off the Geordie's faces.

 

[Manc in London]

Everton or Spurs.

Spurs is the smart option, in terms of the stadium, being in the Capital and a team already competing.

I don't quite see it as Levy and Lewis will likely ask for too much. With the new stadium, training ground, NFL tie-up and the guaranteed PL money, they would be asking for something not far off what the Glazers wanted for United.

In terms of VFM, I would go for Sunderland or Leeds. Huge fanbases and with the latter, a big name overseas.

Anybody apart from that rag shite in Trafford

Stoke City has potential. Great team in the 70’s. Geographically central and has a large population but no other competition other than Port Vale for quite some distance.
Economically the City is on its arse, as the pottery, coal and steel industries have collapsed. Could do with major regeneration like we’ve seen in Eastlands in recent years
