It's possible they might have spent that money on players & quite possible they'd have spent it on utter shite, as they have the last few seasons. Or paid higher wages to the players they had. Or redeveloped Carrington/built a new training ground. Or they might have paid down some or all of the debt. So there's no guarantee that the £1bn they're complaining about would have assured success on the field anyway.

And currently there's about £40m a year going out for the last 5 years in interest & dividends, but that's balanced out by about £250m that came in from the share launch on the NYSE in 2013. So the net outgoing is probably something like £15m a year since the float. It's about what De Gea is paid, so nothing in the overall scheme of things.

Edit: Just checked with SwissRamble and the average net annual cash outflow, for debt and dividends since the takeover in 2005, is just £5m, not £15m. It's fuck all.

Thanks PB, seems that they have been great at raising income streams, chose to retain servicing a large debt, settled for a top 4 place to preserve their global appeal then between them and their football advisors allocated cash accordingly..
No problem really except for the scuppered breakaway and the fans unhappiness RE not winning.
Do you think they will change Colin?
