What ever happens they won't be allowed to go under.
Like barca in Spain.
The league needs the cartel in each country.
The chairman of the fa.
I forget his name said the premier league needs a successful Manchester yyyyyooounited.
When Roy Hodgson was engerland manager he actually said "if you young English and play for yooouuunited you have a great future for england".
Why do you.
Cleverly.
Welbeck.
Phil neville.
Alan smith captain at Leeds never played for England.
Went to the rags.
In the England team.
Leaves to go to Newcastle.
No England games

Yes maybe 10 years ago

But United are not winning titles or Champions League plus the best players don't play for them anymore
The cartel always will be trying to protect themselves, but they still have to be the best club in their leagues

The Premier League is not a 2 horse race anymore with United and Liverpool,
other clubs have taken over and leading the battles with bigger revenues and owners becoming a major power
City Chelsea Arsenal and Newcastle will control England over the next 10 years, Yes Liverpool is flying at the moment but if City and Arsenal get their houses back in shape you never know what can happen

United Bring nothing to the table anymore and should not be a major power in what happens in the rules.
For me, the only thing Keeping United at the top table is Skysports and its subscription fees, i don't see a future for that with the Internet companies ready to take over and blow Sky out of the water,

According to Kieran Maguire on Price of Football podcast they had to take out a £200m loan due to cash flow

“I'm slightly confused that one of the UK's richest men has needed to borrow 200 million pounds in order to have 150 million pounds in the bank. Why is that, Kieran?

Yeah, that doesn't look too clever. I guess the reason is that they needed money by the end of September in order to pay the wage bill in October and November. They remember October and November, both of which are months in which there are international breaks, so that reduces the number of home matches.

Manchester United probably only generate, yeah, I say only generate, they generate four to five million pounds per match at Old Trafford. That's not a lot of money when your monthly wage bill is in the region of 25 to 30 million.

It's going to come as a surprise to a lot of people, Kieran, a shock, in fact, that a club the size of Manchester United has to borrow money ahead of paying the wage bill.

It's the nature of the football industry. Your cost base is quite constant and your biggest cost is going to be your payroll cost. And they've got to find that 25 to 30 million pounds every month”

What do you expect with Lily Savage as co-commentator.
Obviously not watching, but how many times has he mentioned he was a Trafford Termite Academy player ?
Or, how his son also played for them ?
We are used to Ratface rimming them on Sky, but why have that sycophant Savage bullying them up ?
